Meadowood Special
Recreation Management Area

~~~
Managed by the Bureau of Land Management - Eastern States, the Meadowood Special Recreation Management Area (SRMA)is an 800-acre mosaic of gently sloping open meadows, mature hardwood forests, freshwater ponds, creeks, streams, and riparian wetlands. This diverse habitat supports a great variety of wildlife, including white-tailed deer, red fox, coyote, beaver, raccoons, hawks, eagles, reptiles, amphibians, and more. Meadowood, which is home to 30 species of migratory songbirds, is within the National Audubon Society’s Lower Potomac River Important Bird Area. Fishing is allowed in the two ponds at Meadowood. Both Hidden Pond and Enchanted Pond are stocked with bass, bluegill, catfish, and crappie. A Virginia fishing license is required.
