Today my clients were looking at a beautiful waterfront property along the Occoquan Reservoir.  The only problem was we couldn't see the water for the fog.  As we wandered the property we came across this old gazabo which had seen better days.  The good news is the rest of the property was top notch and well cared for.  I'm hoping the 2 days of fog we've had will lift tomorrow so we can see the water again soon. 01/13/2013

Though it is often easy to focus on the newer communities in Prince William County tucked just off the main roads are a number of well established communities that should be on your list of neighborhoods to explore.  One of those is the neighbhorhood of Occoquan Forest just minutes from the Prince William County Parkway and across the river from Fairfax County.
