About this property
Busch Gardens-Williamsburg-Fishing-Cornhole-Deck-River View- FIRE TABLE!
Welcome to “The Riva!” The memories made in our family river home have been endless. The living room with 7 huge picture windows plus a sliding glass door overlooking the river makes the sunrises dreamy!! This home is perfect for families coming to relax, boat, fish, and sightsee with a quick free ferry ride(drive on) across to Jamestown or Williamsburg (BUSCH GARDENS!!). It runs 24 hours a day 7 days a week. It’s about 15 minutes to the FREE drive-on ferry, a 15-20 min ferry ride then once you dock it’s about 10 minutes to get to Busch Gardens. There is also a public beach just off the ferry for everyone to enjoy. We have no doubt your family memories will be endless as well!!
IF YOU HAVE NEVER EXPERIENCED A FERRY: The Ferry is a FREE fun experience! You drive on with your car. Once the boat leaves the dock you can get out and walk around. Enjoy looking over the water, the birds, and all the river scenery. Then once the boat docks, you drive off and are in Williamsburg/Jamestown! There is also a restroom located on the ferry. Go experience it!!
Only a 2.5-hour drive to mountain resorts for skiing and snowboarding, such as Massanutten and Wintergreen.
The wrap-around deck with a picnic table, cornhole boards, fire pit with seating, gas grill, and additional chairs makes for great outdoor entertainment! Enjoy a cozy cup of coffee (provided) or a cocktail while sitting by the fire table and watching the sunset as the eagles fly over the river.
The kitchen is fully stocked with anything you could need to use to cook! 2 full-size refrigerators. (One in the kitchen one in the laundry room) Coffee and filters provided.
There are tons of games and puzzles in the closet if there’s a rainy day. Try our family favorite, Chicken Foot, with the Dominos!
This was never meant to be a rental so trust me there’s everything!
All linens are white, cozy, and freshly laundered including down comforters! AND INCLUDED at no additional cost!
Keyless entry makes checking in at any time seamless.
Please let me know at the time of booking if you will be bringing motorized toys so I can review the guidelines.
The private beach area is for lot owners only, but everyone can enjoy the river view from the wrap-around deck! Nice public boat ramp located approx 12 min from the house. Gorgeous public beach right at Jamestown! Pack up and enjoy the day!
