Palmyra and Lake Monticello

Fluvanna County sits southeast of Charlottesville, with Lake Monticello's several thousand homes at its centre. It is close enough to town to be convenient and far enough out that on-demand coverage is patchy at best.

Heading to the airport

Richmond is about an hour east, and it is usually the better-value option from here. CHO is around half an hour northwest via Route 53 or 600, which makes it the easy choice when the fare is close.

We pick up throughout the Lake Monticello community, Palmyra village, Fork Union, and the Route 15 corridor. The lake's gated sections need a little planning for access, which is handled at booking rather than at the gate.

The ride back

An evening arrival at Richmond bound for Lake Monticello is a long, thinly served run. Most of our Fluvanna riders learned this the hard way once and now book both directions when they book the flight.

Beyond airports, we run the hospital trips into Charlottesville and the occasional Amtrak connection, both of which are steady work out here.

Common questions

Can you get through the Lake Monticello gates?
Yes — tell us the address when you book and access is arranged in advance rather than negotiated at four in the morning.
Richmond or Charlottesville from here?
Richmond is about an hour and often cheaper; CHO is half that and easier. We price both so the ticket decides.
Do you cover Fork Union?
Yes, including the academy, which generates its own travel around term dates.
