The large deck was perfect for relaxing, especially under the huge shade tree making even the hottest days bearable. The water was for kayaking around. Interior was decorated well and very clean. Would stay here again.

Beautiful, peaceful waterfront stay. Every bedroom had a water view, and the home was perfect for unwinding with family over Thanksgiving. The kitchen was fully equipped, making it easy to prepare our entire holiday meal. Although it was too cold to enjoy the decks during our stay, the water views were incredibly relaxing, and I can only imagine how wonderful this place would be in the summer. Tina was a thoughtful and communicative host, adjusted the price due to renovations, and even allowed a late checkout. I would absolutely stay here again.

Not my dream getaway

I am a single mom of 4 who took my kids on our summer vacation somewhere different… It is definitely a private home which is located miles from anything. The water around the house we couldn’t swim in at all due to fishing wire, hooks and the jelly fish that were everywhere. I don’t know if I’m just not use to VA waters, but I had planned on swimming the whole time we were there and we didn’t get to. We also couldn’t buy a pass to swim at the campground nearby. We did fish for hours. The interior of the home is nice. It only has one tv which is in the living room. The recliner is broken and the furniture in general was not enough for all of us to sit together comfortably tho. For the cost of what I paid per night, I don’t think it was worth it for my family. But, the owner was super easy to talk to and responded quickly every time I had a question. I was aggravated feeling like the home was not well prepared tho with necessities like the first aid kit for example. It is completely empty so when my son cut his foot I used my own first aid kit. There was not extra paper products either which I was reimbursed for. I think I just expected more for the price and our vacation was planned mainly around the home.

Thank you for staying with us! so sorry it did not turn out to be the way you expected! Jelly fish is part of nature and we have no control over it. There is no swimming in the description on the listing. The swimming pool and the campground belongs to another proper owner. The recliner is not broken. We checked it ourselves.

Inside the property was clean and comfortable. However, we were taken aback by the outside appearance as we drove onto the property. The grass was not cut, as promised by the host via email before our arrival. The walkway from our car to the front door entrance was a potential trip hazard. There was an extended set of water hoses attached to the outside of the house that were left plugged in and the hoses extended down the side steps from the driveway to the boat ramp where; I'm guessing they were used to clean items that were still piled up on the ramp. We were not planning on participating in any water activities; however, it would have been safer for us if the hoses were disconnected and properly placed out of the walkway entrance to the property.

Relaxing weekend getaway

We had an amazing time at the property, the views are beautiful. Even though there are neighbors it feels really private. We really enjoyed fishing from the private dock, which is a great feature. One suggestion would be to add lights outside do evening fishing now that the sun does down earlier. Would stay here again.

We had such a wonderful time in this amazing home with an amazing sunset view. Tina was such an amazing host! The home was clean and had all the necessities we needed during our one week stay. We enjoyed the use of kayaks, fishing poles, and the grill. Watching sunrise and sunsets in the amazing wrap-around deck was the highlight of each of our day. Would definitely stay there again.

Great place on the water!

The property is right along the water. There is a large deck and boat dock that make it easy to enjoy being outside. All the rooms were well kept and 2 of them have bathrooms with their own bathrooms. It would be very easy for two couples to come stay here. The house is a little far away from stuff being on a peninsula, but if you go into knowing that it's really not a big deal. The hosts let you use the kayaks which is super cool. Neighbors next door are friendly to guests. The only reason I give it a 4/5 for cleanliness is because of the ants that we could not get rid of. They come in from the back door and cluster around the living room/kitchen transition. Would stay here again!
