A relaxing stay
The cottage was very nicely appointed, cozy and clean. We enjoyed hanging out around the fire pit and the quiet surroundings. We checked out Williamsburg and Fort Monroe which are easy drives. Our stay was just what we needed.

We really enjoyed our weekend getaway! The home was just what we needed and hosts were great!
The home was just as described and extremely clean! Joyce was very responsive and a wonderful host. We made use of the kayaks, the dock and fire pit and some perfect weekend weather and also enjoyed exploring the area (York River State Park). We also loved sitting on the dock and watching heron, osprey, and so many other birds enjoy the creek.

Exactly what we were looking for...
This home is exactly as it is described. My family was looking for a home with water access on the Chickahominy for fishing. It was a perfect location for us and a very nice cottage. Clean and comfortable. We brought our own boat, launched at a nearby marina, and used the owners dock. This will be where we stay when we return for future trips.

Perfect getaway
My family and I had a wonderful stay at this beautiful cottage! It had everything you need to just show up and relax! Kitchen fully stocked, bathroom stocked with toiletries (including razors!), comfortable beds, DVDs and board games for the kids! We enjoyed the firewood provided for a fire in the firepit outside as well as the wood stove inside. The lake was frozen when we were there so no fishing or using the boats provided on this trip, BUT WE WILL BE BACK! Our host was incredibly gracious and always available!

Wonderful hideaway on the lake!
This cute house is tucked away on a private road, with terrific views of the lake. Between the two docks for fishing and the kayaks that the owners kindly allow renters to borrow, our kids were busy out on the water all day. Everything in the house is well organized and labels make it clear what switches are for which lights, making the adjustment to new surroundings a breeze. The owners were so nice and helpful, from answering our questions about local farm stands to sharing fishing tips and a few fishing lures suited to the local conditions. A great vacation during the summer of 2020–hard to beat that!

The Big Secret Of Lanexa, VA
Ever find a nice, relaxing place and hope to keep it for yourself? Maybe it was a quiet spot in the mountains or a secluded spot on the beach. That was our feeling with this home on the lake. It was quiet and peaceful. The home was clean and had everything we needed. It’s a short drive from the concrete jungle which is Williamsburg. Actually, Williamsburg is a nice town, but that is a review for another day. (I was using hyperbole for contrast.) The owner was excellent to deal with and I can’t say enough about how we enjoyed everything about this home. Go and have a good time.

Peaceful escape with easy access to history
The property was located central to numerous Civil War battlefields and sites we wanted to visit during our week long vacation this summer. The location allowed day trips to Richmond, Fort Monroe, and Petersburg while offering a peaceful retreat to play board games, kayak or go fishing after a busy day.

Truly a hidden heaven
I cannot say enough positive things about this property. It was so extremely comfortable and the mere feet away lake front was breathtaking at dusk and dawn. It was so well stocked with anything needed I was gob-smacked. If we stay anywhere close to this area again we will most definitely stay here again. Thank you.
