Joshua's Crossing

Built: 1995

The covered bridge in Lake Ann was built in 1995 so that guests could access the back of the Herendeen Lake Resort property. The 90-foot bridge crosses a ravine and small creek. Joshua's Crossing was named after Joshua Gabrick, son of resort owner Mark Gabrick. The road that leads to the bridge is known as Tasha's Trail and is named after Mark's daughter. Constructed with the help of many friends, Joshua's Crossing has become a major attraction in the Lake Anne area.
