About this property

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.

The accommodations are lovely and very comfortable at this rental. There’s everything imaginable you might need for an stress-free stay. Communication with the owner was easy and very timely. My only complaint is the “private white sandy beach” description is a bit of a stretch, which, in all fairness, may simply be the doings of Mother Nature. Overall, a great stay at this lovely location.

We originally planned to be fishing all week, but with the passing nor’easter and high tides, fishing wasn’t great. The home was so comfortable and so beautiful though and we enjoyed all our time together! The views from the docks are stunning! We can’t wait to go back again, hoping the weather will work in our favor next time!! Thank you for sharing your beautiful home!!
