About Sherando
Tucked against the Blue Ridge Mountains in Augusta County, Sherando is a quiet rural community of around 700 residents. It is best known locally as the gateway to the Sherando Lake Recreation Area, a beloved spot in the George Washington National Forest for swimming, camping, and hiking. While the settlement dates back to the 1800s and the historic Mount Torry iron furnace, daily life here today revolves around the outdoors and scenic mountain views, with easy drives into nearby Waynesboro and Staunton for shopping and dining.
