Summer Vacation
This is our 4th year and another great stay on the Rappahannock River! The house continues to be upgraded and although we pretty much live on the front porch during the week, the house is big enough for us to spread out when needed. Neighbors are nice! Water is nice! Sunsets are beautiful! Already looking forward to next year.

Family friendly!!
This is our second year renting and as last year, we were very pleased. The weather and water couldn’t have been nicer. The home was clean and welcoming. We love that it is big enough to house 4 generations; my mom, my husband and I, my children and my grandchild. This has been a family tradition since I was a child and now incredible to share it with my first grandchild. We all love the river life and very thankful we have the opportunity to rent this cottage. Location couldn’t be any better. Already planning next years trip.

Relaxing Three Generation Family Vacation
Huge, well supplied home on the riverfront. Beautiful views from the enclosed, air conditioned porch. Ceiling fans everywhere and awesome air conditioning were greatly appreciated!! Great swimming, fishing, crabbing, and boating. Lots of things for everyone to do. Games, beach toys, highchairs, gates, game tables, kids bikes all extra things to make the stay enjoyable. Great driveway for bike riding too. Owners very helpful with any questions. Will definitely return and tell others about this relaxing place. Wonderful experience!!

Enjoyed the river view
We enjoyed our time and especially liked the river view. Great sunrises which we enjoyed since we were up early with a baby anyways. Old house but has some updates and character. The mattresses gave some of my family back trouble and would highly recommend new ones. Also, curtains would be nice for the windows. I’m aware that pets are allowed at this place but better cleaning afterwards would be nice. The couch in the sitting area by the kitchen was covered in it! There was also still a lot on the floor.

Wonderful property
This river home was truly a gift to my family. The location is beautiful, the house is cozy and has everything you need to settle in and feel at home. The house is so much bigger than it looks in pictures and there are so many rooms that you can spread out and relax easily. The dock was great and the beach you get at low tide was a favorite for me and my son. I hope to get to come back to this house one day for another stay! The host was also great with communication!

Great Family Getaway
Our extended family of 11 and 2 dogs had a great long weekend together! Plenty of spaces we could gather inside, and a wonderful patio with an amazing view of the river. We launched our kayaks right from the dock too! The kitchen and dining room were perfect for meals. Host was very responsive. We would like to visit again!

Extended Labor Day Holiday
We had an enjoyable 5 day stay with our family over the labor day holiday. We found the house to be well kept with sufficient amenities to make your vacation enjoyable. We brought a boat and a couple of jet skis so we were able to take full advantage of the river. Also there were some water floats in the shed to use if you wanted to just hang out by the dock. A few notes of caution: The water at the dock is shallow and when tide is low, we found that our boat's lower drive, when all the way down, drug in the silt. Finding gas on the river is a challenge. There is a marina close by but accessibility is hit or miss depending on tides. When we were there, the operating hours mostly aligned with lower tide levels so we just bought gas in town and brought it back in 5 gallon cans to keep the skis running. We were told the next closest marina with gas was 15 miles down river and there was nothing up river. Lastly, while the house has a basement with pool table and other games, we found the air to be too musty to stay down there so we confined our stay to the upper floors which was not a problem for our group. All in all, it was a great stay

Perfect!
This property was perfect for our small girls trip getaway! The house was maybe even too big for us but it was nice to be able to spread out. The kitchen seems to have been updated recently and was well equipped with everything we needed, but I would recommend bringing a good egg pan. The patio was perfect for evenings and grilling (definitely bring bugspray) and the view of the river was stunning. I also had my two-year-old in tow and was pleasantly surprised at the baby proofing already in place in the house. There are outlet covers and baby gates available. There was a nice beach area during low tide that we were able to go down and play. A good find for a group of all ages!
