We loved this location for our group. It wasn't far from Williamsburg or Petersburg. It was nice not to be cramped in a condo or townhouse, and have some nature around. You aren't going to make a quick trip to the store, so don't forget what you need when you are in town.

My kids and grandkids especially loved this property! the river view and especially the bird watching from the wrap around deck was amazing - my son counted over 31 species of birds, including 2 he'd never seen before! the house was very clean and had lots of extras like board and card games and an awesome propane grill. We had a minor TV issue the first night and the host provided a brand new TV the next morning! Responsiveness was very much appreciated. We as grandparents loved the ground floor bedroom we immediately appropriated so we could get in and out easily with our pups. Having a 2nd fridge was really useful as we had to stock up to feed 14 people for several days. We had a wonderful multi-generational family week there. Many thanks to Amanda and her family for allowing us to gather in her family's long-time home in Spring Grove!

Fun spot by the river

We stayed here and visited Colonial Williamsburg. It was a reasonable distance away from what we wanted and had a big room to put all the kids in. It's in a quiet neighborhood away from it all.

Summer family trip

We had a nice time using this as home base while we went to Jamestown and Busch Gardens. It is a bit remote and by the end of the week the commute with the ferry was getting old. A nice, quiet place to stay for sure.

Lovely visit

We very much enjoyed our stay at River House. The view of the James River was spectacular and the house was cozy and very comfortable. I loved riding the ferry over to Jamestown and Williamsburg, The hosts are first rate and very helpful. Loved sitting in the very comfortable living room and watching the eagles, osprey and other birds flying around the river. Great vacation place!

Great getaway!

This was an awesome home nestled just far enough away from civilization but still close enough to access whatever you needed. The home was very clean and well-maintained and had a marvelous view of the James river. The host was very hospitable and extremely quick to answer any inquiries.
