The Philomont Post Office is located in small walled off section of the back of the Philomont General Store. It feels very old and rustic - like you've stepped back in time to a rugged frontier era! read more

Zero stars if I could leave none. I couldn't disagree more with Elaine's review. I don't know what…read moreplanet she is living on lol This guy is the Village Idiot. I have reported him numerous times to his supervisor. He retaliates with he receives negative feedback. For example, I broke my leg and receive numerous packages. He purposely put my packages in the bottom locker when other lockers higher were available. He knew there was no way I could bend over to get them. I have had a PO box for years and if a package comes with my street address he sends it back and I only find out when the vendor sends me a receipt and credits my payment method. It's not like we live in a metropolis. He could easily accept the package for me. I find this behavior inexcusable. Our taxes are paying his salary! If you need other examples of his inept management of the Hamilton post office, I will be more than happy to comply. His predecessor, Debbie, was absolutely WONDERFUL and I miss her helpful demeanor and kindness to provide over-the-top service.

I think this is the best Post Office in the world and think everyone that has worked there has given great service! We are lucky to have a Post Office like this in Hamilton and I am grateful.

This is how packages were delivered from the Purcellville VA post office yesterday. Customer service is of no value to these people.
The Purceville library looks like a house from a fairytale story, it's a beautiful looking library…read more It is fully made of cobblestone. It caught my attention the last time I was visiting Purceville. We stopped by to return some materials and for a quick study session. It is quiet and spacious inside. There are of course plenty of books, DVDs and Audio books, there was a table of western movies and books, maybe Yellowstone has something to do with it. There was a specious room for reading, studying or computer work. I love their puzzle table. They have a puzzle started for anyone who wants to work on it. This library has large windows to allow plenty of sunlight to come through. The children's area has some large legos to play with, it has an adorable Pete The Cat rug in it, and of course excellent books for kids of all ages and interests. Their staff is pleasant and welcoming. This is a beautiful library in a beautiful town, Purceville VA.

Be aware--you do have to log into their website and sign up for tickets for the tour--they will not let you in without this reservation. They do have a gift shop of sorts, but they do not sell water--just an fyi. They give a guided tour and it was so very neat! They tell you all about the money printing process from start to finish, how to tell the difference between real vs counterfeit. They discuss the reasons that bills change every few years. You get to see them actually working the ginormous printing machines. I highly recommend visiting on your next DC trip!

On the side of the road near where Greenbelt Road crosses the Beltway is this historical marker…read moresign denoting the Taoping Castle (circa 1750). It is on Walker Road. It reads: On this site, Isaac Charles and Nathan Walker erected a large white oak log house named for their ancestral stronghold in Scotland which the three brothers had fled after the failure of attempts to unseat George I, King of England, as ruler of Scotland. Isaac permanently settled here and obtained land grants for 188 acres. He and his three sons served in the Revolutionary War. The graves of Isaac and his son Nathan are north of here. Taoping Castle was the birthplace of Samuel Hamilton Walker (February 24, 1817 - October 9, 1847). Lt. Colonel of the Texas Rangers and Captain of the US Cavalry, he left home at age 19 to fight Indians and later became a leader and hero of the Rangers. His suggested changes to Samuel Colt's revolver resulted in Colt's success as an arms manufacturer. 1000 Colt-Walker pistols - the first, heaviest and longest revolvers ever issued to American forces - were purchased for the Texas Rangers during the Mexican war. Walker was killed in that war at the Battle of Hua Mantla, Mexico. The family cemetery is all that remains of the Taoping Castle estate.
I had a wonderful time living in this town as a child. You know Gilmore Girls and Rory Gilmore?…read moreThat's the type of life in this town if you mix with the right people. It's quaint, it's charming, it's idyllic, it's near Washington, DC, and your high school can get you into Yale. You might get run over by a BMW or Mercedes at the grocery store parking lot. You might get hit by a field hockey ball. You might find yourself in trouble with the popo for throwing a raucous party. This town is preppy, diverse, everything you want out of the East Coast. Washington, DC has great suburbs and Bethesda is great.

We used Avalon Construction (Hamilton, Va) to build our gazebo and deck. After 2 years, we noticed…read morethe wood rotting and mold growing. We contacted them with our issues and photos. We received one email back saying they would come by and take a look. This never happened. We are 4-5 years out on this being built and the gazebo has deteriorated even more, becoming an eyesore and dangerous. There is mold growing in areas as well. We just recently contacted them again as it must be taken down and rebuilt. They will take no responsibility for what they have built. They did not use the proper materials when building as it is quite evident it was not pressure treated wood. They are not an honorable construction company. I would highly urge folks to avoid using them. Our photos speak volumes in the quality of work they provide. Meredith Kasun (Leesburg)

This post office was recently renamed in honor of Winchester native & country legend, Patsy Cline by Pres. Biden which is "Crazy". "I Fall to Pieces" when I think about how fascinating that is. There's a framed article on the wall dated June 29, 2022 describing the story. It was busy but efficient, and clean as a whistle! But don't go "Walkin' after Midnight" or Saturday because you'll find it closed. Hours M-F 12:00-4:00, closed Saturday

This stately…read morebrick post office was originally built in 1939 and has been refurbished, keeping the integrity of the period in mind. Some of the deterioration of the crown moulding on the outside of the structure had to be specially crafted to match the rest of the authentic moulding. Inside there are many original brass fixtures and mail slots, post boxes, wooden doors, desks and podiums. One unique feature of this post office is the huge mural of Clifton farm painted by a local artist of that period, E.S. Lewis. Dubbed "New Deal Art" from1939, as Franklin Roosevelt's effort to end the Great Depression, it's one of only 2 murals of its kind in the area. A plaque dedicating the building is displayed next to the post office counter. A knowledgeable and friendly postal worker informed me of the historic value of this post office! I not only got a history lesson, but was able to admire the lovely brick and wrought iron architectural aspects of this pristine post office. Hours 9:00-5:00 M-F, 9:00-12:30 Sat.

Been here a couple of times to send some packages and my experience here has been satisfactory so far. The parking lot is moderate size with a few parking spaces In the front and a few more in the back. There are two self service machines that you use to buy stamps, print labels, and more. There are never enough staff so there is always a line no matter the time of day. The hours of operation on weekdays are usually 9am to 6 pm which is great compare to usps in Maryland where they closed at 4:30 pm. All in all, I would recommend anyone who need to use usps services to come to this location.

This job is literally hell on earth from day one. The management is by far the worst people in the world. The other carrier are the only decent people but everyone would gladly throw you under the bus to save there ass. The have very strict and unreasonable expectations that put you and others at risk. If you don't meet those unreasonable and impossible expectations you get threatened and abused repeatedly. They have a horrible turnover rate and lay people off without notice for absolutely nothing. I was laid off 5 days before my 90 day ended and was never given a reason why. My post master became hostile and my supervisor was horrible and two faced. The pay was a little better but not worth the nightmare that you put up with daily and the lack of job security. CCAs havs worked there for some years and never get hired on as regular and quit generally before it will ever happen. They preach about safety but the pack the most dangerous vehicles full of mountains of mail and parcels that logistically cannot fit in the LLV. If anyone reading this is considering this opportunity there is a reason they keep on hiring! They are desperate beyond belief and they let tons of people go. Don't let them pull the same crap as they did to me as they will do to you. Keep you sanity!

Crossing this part of the Potomac River is stunning. One thing I don't like, is there looks like a section to walk the bridge, but that would be a no. Barricades aren't in place, and it's a thin bit of sidewalk. Also when you drive across this it's two way two lane traffic. Definitely pay attention, as not much clearance. Yet the blue bridge is stunning. If you're lucky enough to be a passenger, the views of the Potomac are truly impressive. It's a fairly rural area, although rush hour can be frustrating. If there's a wreck on or near the bridge, you will not be moving anytime soon. My hope is this can continue being operational, but that Whites Ferry can return.
