Locust Grove, also known as the Goodwin Farm, is a historic home located at Rapidan, Culpeper County, Virginia. The original section was built about 1730, and expanded in at least four major building campaigns over the next half-century. It had its present configuration by 1840. The house is a {{frac|1|1|2}}-story, four-bay, log and frame structure featuring a central chimney, two-room plan main block flanked by early gable-end lean-tos and rear additions. It has a steep gable roof with modern dormers. It was renovated in the 1970s. Also on the property is a contributing mid-19th century smokehouse.{{cite web |url=https://www.dhr.virginia.gov/registers/Counties/Culpeper/023-0049_Locust_Grove_1985_Final_Nomination.pdf |title=National Register of Historic Places Inventory/Nomination: Locust Grove |author=Virginia Department of Historic Resources | date=June 1985 |publisher=Virginia Historic Landmarks Commission}} and [https://www.dhr.virginia.gov/registers/Counties/Culpeper/LocustGrove_photo.htm Accompanying photo]
