SR 207 begins at an intersection with US 1 (Emancipation Highway) in Ruther Glen, in an area also known as Carmel Church, in western Caroline County. The state highway heads east as Rogers Clark Boulevard, a four-lane divided highway that passes through a commercial area with services catering to travellers. Within the commercial area, SR 207 has a partial cloverleaf interchange with I-95. East of Ruther Glen, the state highway heads northeast toward Bowling Green. SR 207 crosses over CSX's RF&P Subdivision railroad line and the Mattaponi River north of the village of Milford. Southwest of Bowling Green, the state highway meets the western end of SR 207 Business, which takes the name Rogers Clark Boulevard toward the town of Bowling Green. SR 207 continues east as the Bowling Green Bypass to the route's eastern terminus. The state highway crosses over US 301 and SR 2 (Richmond Turnpike) and ends at a two-way ramp between the north–south road and the bypass. The Bowling Green Bypass continues northeast as US 301 toward Fort A.P. Hill. The two-way ramp, which is part of US 301, leads to the Richmond Turnpike, which heads south toward Richmond as US 301 and SR 2 and north into the town of Bowling Green as SR 2 and US 301 Business.[1][2]

Under a previous numbering system, SR 207 was known as State Route 613 from 1929-1933. This SR 613 initially ran only from US 1 at Carmel Church to the Mattaponi River but, in 1930-31, was extended east to the current US 301 Business and SR 2 intersection in Bowling Green. The route was renumbered in 1933 as SR 207, which itself had been a previous designation of part of what is now SR 24 near Roanoke. In addition to the current path of SR 207, the 1933 route included what is now SR 639 in Caroline County from Chilesburg to Ladysmith but this was renumbered as SR 229 by 1937. The route was enlarged by 1937 with the addition of a second section running from a point 2 miles (3.2 km) east of Bowling Green through Port Royal to an intersection with SR 3 at Office Hall. Part of this route had been SR 229 from 1933. In 1941, this new section became part of US 301 which it remains today[update].[3]
The entire route is in Caroline County.
