"Cute little bridge in an idyllic setting amongst the equally idyllic buildings of William & Mary"
"Cute little bridge on campus. Not much to say about it though rumor has it walking across with your loved one means you will forever be together/married. I don't believe in that, but the waters below it were so still the day I went, it reflected the sky so much, I couldn't take a picture of the turtles below."
"Tucked away on campus, it’s a pretty walk and a very serene location. A couple of benches, and a wall, allow you to sit down and take in nature. You watch fish and turtles, lots of turtles the day we went."
"I first walked across Crim Dell 39 years ago. It is full of memories for me."
"Sweet picture spot. We visited on an overcast day in March, and the flowers had not bloomed yet. It was still very picturesque. We read online that if two lovers cross the bridge together and kiss at the crest of it, they will be together forever. Who can resist that?"
