A wonderful location on the water with great views. Within a very easy and short drive to either Reedville. Kilmarnock, Irvington, White stone etc. Small tip if you plan on eating meals at the house, may be best to plan ahead and bring groceries with you. That was our plan and it really worked out.

Perfect Views to Relax

Adorable home with an amazing view from any window! We kayaked right from the dock. The view is why you stay here! Breathtaking! Management responded quickly. We would definitely stay again and recommend to anyone who loves the water and views.

Great place to reconnect and reset!

The communication with the home owners (Debbie, Uzma) was excellent throughout. That allowed us to feel more at ease from the very start. All of us enjoyed the close proximity to the water along with the generous availability of the kayaks. We spent several hours touring the nearby coves and taking in all the sights and sounds. When it was too warm at certain points of the day, we were able to stretch out and enjoy the living room area that allowed us to still take in all the views of the river. The kitchen and the home were well supplied with all the necessary items that one could ask for during their stay. Furthermore, we had a memorable experience during our stay at Ophelia’s Point. We already spoke about the strong possibility of making the trip back down to NN of Virginia in the near future. Thank you again for making our stay such a wonderful one!! Don’t pass up the opportunity of crossing the river on the cable ferry :)

Beautiful property and very responsive property manager. The only drawback was that there was no access for swimming. The property manager helped us locate a beach nearby, so all was well.

Gorgeous river views

Our stay exceed expectations. The location was perfect for our July 4th weekend getaway. Lots of lawn to play games and relax. Kayaks were a great bonus for the kids to get on and a enjoy floating on the river. We are already planning our next trip!

A perfect property to kick back, relax/unwind and just take in the peaceful water views, either from the well appointed house or one of the two new kayaks. We will be back!

Long weekend get away

Our family had an absolute wonderful time! The house is very charming and clean. The fire pits came in useful for the chilly evenings. The views of the river are breathtaking at all hours of the day and night. Such a treat! The only thing we would do differently is to be able to pick a time frame that we could enjoy the ferry right next to the house.

The house and property is beautiful!

There was a snag in us staying but no fault of the property owner. The recent hurricane had caused unusually high waters and waves which made the dock unaccessible for us as my husband has a leg disability and could not get to the dock to fish as fishing was our #1 objective for our trip. Everything else was absolutely beautiful! When we informed of leaving and finding another location we were treated very fairly.

Relaxing Beautiful Spot!

We had a very relaxing few days at this house! The house is very clean even though it’s pet friendly. The outside area is perfect for water activities and socializing. We made the most of the fire pit and kayaks. We would stay here again! The cell service is very poor/non existent in the area. Just be prepared for that and of course get the house WiFi when you get there.

It was beautiful

The overall experience was great. I was a little bummed about the little beachy area that was talked about in the listing and that it was great for young kids. We don't have a boat so that wasn't an option but we did find them a spot for swimming down the road. Still a great place and definitely perfect get away if you have a boat. We would definitely go back!!

Great house but impossible to be in the water

We were excited as a family to be so close to the water since we love to swim and all kind of water sports but an invasion of jellyfish made it impossible for us to really enjoy our stay. House is really great and comfortable but for 3 active teens it was not the greatest option.

A Little Slice of Heaven

The pictures do not do justice to this property. The sunrises were peaceful and awe-inspiring. Several mornings we kayaked out to watch the sunrise on the water. Just beautiful. The ferry next door was fun to watch and the grands enjoyed riding it back and forth while we explored the area. Purchased a crab pot from a local bait shop and we enjoyed checking it daily. Jellyfish were too abundant to swim, but they didn’t stop us from kayaking. Enjoyed watching the boats and jet skis pass thru, we were cheering for a little boy learning to tube! All in all a very restful and enjoyable time. Small beach not far (7 mins) up the road gave the touch of sand we were missing. Nice trails, too.

4 days of Magic

Beautiful! The home was very clean, and fully stocked with everything you'd need during your stay. Had a lot of fun visiting the nearby towns--definitely had the small-town atmosphere. The cell phone service presented a challenge though. The three of us whose carrier was Verizon had no problem at all, but the other party who had another carrier was unable to get a connection unless we went closer to town. Something to consider. Also, we were unable to get local channels/cable on the TV. Used streaming. We loved the welcome goodies left out for us. We were looking for a place where we could just relax and chill out and we definitely got that. We really enjoyed sitting on the deck overlooking the water and watching the neighbors jet-skiing and boating. And everyone was so very friendly, both in the neighborhood and in the nearby towns. Would definitely go back.

Beautiful peaceful vacation

Spending the holiday weekend on Ophelia Point was just what we needed. The home is located on the Little Wicomico River with views that would take your breath away. Watching the sunrise every morning on the front deck was perfect. If you are looking for a place to relax and unwind, you need to stay here. The kids enjoyed the new Kayaks, they tested their skills at cornhole, which was pretty comical, they rode the bikes everyday and spent the evenings playing board games. The Sunnybank ferry is next door and the kids enjoyed riding across the river on the ferry. The yard is massive, perfect for walking your dog or just checking out the property. The home was equipped with everything we needed. The beds were so comfortable, so much so that my husband went online and bought the same mattress on the 2nd night we were there- LOL. There is an Osprey nest on the property and we had a family of Geese come visit us in the mornings. Everyone is so friendly in Heathsville/Reedville area. We had a delicious dinner at The Crazy Crab and the kids had to check out the ice cream shops. The boutique owner at Forget-Me Knot suggested that the kids start out at T&J’s Dairy Barn and by the time they finished the ice cream they would be at Chitterchats for a 2nd helping of ice cream. They did this every day we were there. The only thing I would recommend would be a pair of binoculars at the house. Thank you Debbie, we will be booking again

We had a great stay and want to go back again. The water views are fabulous! We enjoyed using the kayaks and it was fun to ride the ferry. The unexpected nice bonus was that there are doors separating the dining and living room area and hall which was great to keep our 1 1/2 yr old grandson in one room. We brought a gate for the kitchen which worked out great. The only reason I gave a 4 star rating is because the pots and pans non stick surface was very scratched and peeling so we didn’t feel they were safe to use. Thankfully we brought our own frying pan and large pot.The owner was very responsive when we needed life jackets that were missing and with other questions. We loved staying here. Thank you for making our stay a vacation to remember.

Gorgeous sunrise, picturesque views, not the best for kids

We recently stayed at this property and overall had a wonderful experience. Communication with the owner was excellent—she was very responsive and helpful throughout our stay. The house was clean and well-stocked, which made settling in easy.That said, if you plan on doing a lot of cooking (which you likely will, as there aren't many local restaurants), it would be helpful to have larger pots for steaming crabs and more storage containers for leftovers.The views and the surrounding grounds were absolutely stunning—peaceful, scenic, and truly memorable. However, I would not recommend this property for families with children. Due to the presence of oyster pots, crab pots, and jellyfish in the water, swimming and water activities are very limited, which may be disappointing for kids looking to enjoy the water.All in all, a beautiful getaway spot for adults looking to relax and enjoy nature.
