You will be very close to Shenandoah National Park, which would be a good place to see turtles.
You will also be reasonably close the the Wildlife Center of Virginia, which a veterinary hospital strictly for wildlife. You should contact them to see if you can go to one of their 'open house' days, when they give tours of the facility. It's a pretty cool place: check out their website (link below).
