Moneta, Virginia
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Moneta is an unincorporated community in Bedford County, Virginia, United States, along Route 122 between Bedford and Rocky Mount; Route 122 follows a bypass around the community.
Moneta was popularized as the shooting location for scenes in the movie What About Bob. The production company spruced up and painted the town. In the movie, Bob arrived by bus with his goldfish and went into a local general store, which still stands.
Moneta is the primary postal address for homes located on both sides of Smith Mountain Lake, whether in Bedford County or in Franklin County, since there is no Smith Mountain Lake postal address.
