The Nelson House was the home of Thomas Nelson, Jr. (1738-89), Yorktown's most famous son and one of the signers of the Declaration of Independence. Nelson's devotion to the patriot cause during the American Revolution contributed significantly to the creation of the United States.
The town was only open for the walking tour and closed for driving due to the weather- which means it was free! (We asked the front desk) it was wonderful to have the place to ourselves. Will definitely go back in the spring/summer.

Everything was good. One comment: if towels are not refreshed daily, as is the case, then there should be more towel racks to hang towels to dry for next use.
