Beach House on Chesapeake Bay!

Bring your boat!

New 3 bedroom, 2 bath rental property on the Chesapeake Bay, VA and only 1 hour drive from Richmond and 2 hours from Charlottesville!

Professionally managed luxury residence on 7+ private acres with water access on both sides, boasting a private white sand beach and panoramic water views. Over 1,000 feet of boardwalk spanning the property with a brand new pier out over the water for swimming, fishing/crabbing, and boating!

The three bedroom home has an open concept kitchen/LR/DR with exceptional water views overlooking Milford Haven and the Chesapeake Bay.

Well appointed to host up to 8 guests, with 3 bedrooms consisting of one King, two Queens, and a twin over full bunk and two full bathrooms as well as a brand new cedar outdoor shower. Premium shampoo, conditioner, and face/body wash included.

Every attention to detail has been made to outfit the kitchen for the gourmet chef with professional quality cutlery and cookware. Additionally, there is a 5 burner gas grill for barbeques and a large firepit for cooking crab pots or just making smores.

The water surrounding the property is very warm and shallow with white sand underfoot and usually very calm - great for StandUp Paddleboarding, kayaking, or just lounging in it with the kids. Guests can arrange for SUPs and kayaks to be delivered to the home.

Featuring two newly built piers that span the property with decks at each end, there are plenty of areas to sit and relax by the water where you will occasionally spot pods of Bottlenose dolphins swim past. The area has incredible fishing for Striper, Spot, Spotted Trout, and Croaker as well as plenty of Blue crab and local oysters literally in the backyard.

Seafood lovers don't have to worry about catching their own, however, as there is a local fishmonger who sells everything you could want from his curbside trailer in downtown Mathews (5 miles away). Also in Mathews, you will find a Food Lion supermarket and a variety of restaurants and dining options ranging from casual like the pizza at Southwind to fine dining at the White Dog Bistro.

The home is equipped with a medical grade air purifier, WiFi broadband internet with exceptionally fast speed(400 mbps) for streaming and video conferencing as well as dedicated work space (desk) in the 2nd bedroom, and a brand new water system with a reverse osmosis drinking water tap.

Only a short 45 minute drive to Busch Gardens, Water Country, and downtown Williamsburg and an hour from Jamestown.

If you are looking for a peaceful, quiet and relaxing vacation on the water, look no further! This place is private and serenity abounds.

Coastal Cottage on the Bay
Mathew’s is like home for me. I was not disappointed by this trip. We enjoyed Bay views, sitting on the deck and most importantly building community in the living room. What a great experience! I recommend this property for a couples getaway, families looking to getaway or a girls Trip.

Beautiful Property with All the Amenities
This place was a dream! The property was so beautiful and the house had all we needed and more. Our family had a great time! The beach area was much smaller than we were hoping (maybe from recent rains?) but the kids still had a blast. We enjoyed the fire pit and catching crabs right out of the bay. Terrible mosquitoes but we were prepared for that. Would definitely stay here again!

Awesome vacation in nature!
We absolutely loved this property! The house is gorgeous and very comfortable. The property is like vacationing in a private nature reserve, beautiful walk ways and so much wildlife to watch. When we went (mid July) we hardly saw or heard another person. It was absolutely beautiful and a great escape. Communication with the hosts was pleasant and quick. Really a fantastic place, thank you for sharing your beautiful home with us ❤️

Dream house
A peaceful semi-secluded house with access to calm waters of Chesapeake Bay. You’re about 30 seconds from the water on one side of the house, and a couple of minutes walk down a private boardwalk through a picturesque marsh on the other side of the house. Even though the temperatures were HOT during our stay, we spent a lot of time outdoors on the water learning to SUP and kayakig. We saw dolphins, deer, a bald eagle, osprey, rabbits. It’s a dream location—semi rural but town is only 5 minutes away. The house was immaculate.

Beautiful, tranquil retreat that’s well-stocked!
We have stayed at numerous VRBO properties, but this was one of the best. Unlike some other houses, this host has stocked many items for a comfortable and enjoyable stay. Especially in the kitchen, there were numerous staples provided for those who forgot or were unprepared. Games and activities abound, both inside and out. The only frustration was with all the remotes to the TV. Never did figure out the Bose speakers so just used the TV speakers. But we rate this a 10-star home:-).

Absolutely Wonderful!
This property completely exceeded my expectations. The description of the property truly doesn't do it justice. It was one of the best equipped rental homes I've ever stayed in. The attention to detail throughout the property was impeccable. I loved that even though it felt remote enough to feel exclusive, it was still close to everything I needed. Overall, it was an amazing experience.

Quiet and Relaxing
My husband and I really enjoyed our stay. Mike came to our rescue when the place we initially booked canceled our stay last minute. We were fortunate to be able to stay at his place. It was very quiet and set off the beaten path. We enjoyed an abundance of wildlife-osprey trying to chase away eagles. We were leaving for dinner one night and unfortunately had to scare away the doe with 2 fawns and the 4 rabbits in the yard. Having coffee or a glass of wine on the deck over looking the water was great too. Mike was very responsive with any questions we had. The house is well stocked with everything you need and more. We wish we could have stayed longer.

Absolutely perfect
The house had everything we needed for a great week away. We really didn’t need to bring anything besides our clothes and personal things. There were even spare phone chargers and flashlights. The kitchen is very well-equipped and we enjoyed several fresh seafood meals at the house. The view is the best part, though, and watching the sunrise from the deck was my favorite thing. We rented kayaks and paddle boards and the teens enjoyed them a lot but we probably would have been fine with a one day rental as opposed to the whole week as we took several day trips away from the house to Haven Beach and Williamsburg and Jamestown and antiquing. Hole in the Wall was a great spot for dinner. Two of us enjoyed a chartered fishing trip and caught lots of Spanish Mackerel. This was the first time the guide didn’t clean the fish though, and that was a pain to do ourselves especially since the price of the charter was equal or higher than what we usually pay with fish-cleaning included. But we had everything we needed to do the job at the house. The mosquitos weren’t a problem. There were a few as expected in a marshy area but it wasn’t nearly as bad as I feared they would be. We definitely had a great time and hope to come back.

Views, activities and comfort
Overall we had a fabulous time! The house is beautiful, clean and has wonderful views. The porch screens had a few holes and couldn't get the ceiling fans to work, but didn’t stop us from enjoying a morning cup of coffee, just might have stayed longer if no bugs and a breeze. We loved the large umbrella on the back dock! We think the other doc could use one just like it (wink wink) but we all had a blast, fishing, crabbing, kayaking, swimming and wakeboarding. Bring your bug spray, the mosquitoes are ruthless but leave the rest at home, this place has it all. We can tell you have put a lot of love and work into the house. Thank you for sharing it with us! We would love to return someday.
