Why Live in Elkton
Elkton lies in the Shenandoah River Valley of northwestern Virginia. Bookended by the Massanutten Ridge to the west and Shenandoah National Park to the east, the community consists of a town center quadrisected by Routes 33 and 340, the latter of which partially parallels the South Fork of the Shenandoah River. “That section of the river is the breadbasket of the valley,” says Greg Pfaff, a Realtor and associate broker with Kline May Realty. “Elkton is a bedroom community of Harrisonburg. It’s very much an old, small town. The main thing there is it’s right off Route 33, which butts up against Skyline Drive; plus, you can see Massanutten Peak from there.”
Route 33 provides a pathway west into Harrisonburg or eastward to Charlottesville and Richmond, while Skyline Drive traces the horizon along the Blue Ridge Mountains in Shenandoah. “There is definitely a lot to do, like hiking and mountain biking,” says Oleksii Humaniuk, an associate agent with Re/Max Performance. “A mountain biker told me that our area, with Shenandoah and the George Washington National Forest, is one of the best places to go for mountain biking in the whole U.S. There is a lot of outdoorsy stuff to do.” The
