Mulligan's Retreat is located in Grayson County in southwest Virginia but its close proximity to Alleghany County in North Carolina makes it an ideal location for those seeking both equine and non-equine activities. Grayson and surrounding counties offer many wonderful activities for the outdoor enthusiast. Visitors will find endless opportunities for fishing, golfing, and other water related activities such as canoeing and tubing in the communities of Sparta, Independence, Galax and Abingdon. Those who prefer to stroll small town streets window shopping or searching for antiques will not be disappointed. For anyone wishing to indulge in regional wines, there are several noted vineyards featuring very popular Yadkin Valley Varietals. Included here are some popular destinations within 60 miles of Mulligan's Retreat--many of our favorites.
