About this property

Cheery, Peaceful Water Front Cabin on Winery Grounds

This serene and rustic cabin is on the Ingleside Vineyard's property. Have a glass or two of wine and walk around the vineyards and then retreat to your own private a-frame cabin oasis. A beautiful view of the Roxsbury Estate where abundant wildlife can be viewed all around the property and the pond is stocked and ready to be fished. Within driving distance to wineries, Stratford Hall, George Washington & James Monroe's birthplace, Westmoreland State Park, and the beach town of Colonial Beach.

There is no WIFI but most have great cell service, it's extremely private with an abundance of nature to view, and a full kitchen MINUS a oven and dishwasher, although there is a hot plate, toaster oven, and microwave. There are WINDOW AC units that do an amazing job of cooling down the little cabin too. It has everything you need for a relaxing stay.

It is rustic and private and with any cabin in the woods we make every effort to keep pests away but sometimes things are inevitable even with pest treatment regularly.

A cozy, private, quiet (except for acorns falling on the roof, lol) sweet little cabin! We loved that it was pet-friendly and close to a winery. At first we were hesitant about having no WiFi, but it was the unplugged R&R that we actually needed!

Home away from home

Our stay here was exactly what we were hoping for. Very peaceful atmosphere, a home away from home. We were able to see an eagle by the pond while we were having coffee on the deck.Our border collie loved playing around the pond while we were fishing.Amy was very responsive from the start of our stay. We can’t wait to go back.

True nature retreat 😀

We truly enjoyed our stay at the cabin. Close to the beach and other attractions. Super comfy beds. Living, dining areas and decks super relaxing. Had the comforts of home and beats a hotel hands down. We highly recommend you check in at this cabin destination.

Wonderful, rustic retreat

Thank you so much for allowing us to stay at your property. We were able to unwind in the remote location, fishing was a blast and it was just a short trip to a great winery. We were close to the beach and were able to take in the food and fun in Colonial Beach. Thank you again for a wonderful mini-vacation.

A Lovely, Quiet Christmas

The house was extremely cute and cozy. It was great that we could bring our pups, too. The owners were nice enough to put up a Christmas tree for us and it was just the relaxing retreat we were looking for this holiday. The communication on site was great even through the crazy weather and extreme temps. Would highly recommend for a couple.

Lovely A-frame home

This little cabin is a delight. It I nestled in the woods in the country next to a winery. The linens were clean as well as the cabin itself. Amy, the host, was attentive and ensured our stay was a positive experience. We loved the local park and the town of Colonial beach is quaint. This is definitely a place you can spend several days without leaving and feel completely peaceful. I highly recommend this as a place to disconnect from the world.

Great View

We loved our stay! From the moment we walked in, we kept saying "this is just so cute!" The house is clean and welcoming. The view of the lake is incredible. There is a house next door, but far enough away not to be bothered by it. We ended up staying inside more than planned because of the weather, but we had everything we needed (and the view, again, didn't hurt). The second room is a lot bigger than it looks in pictures, so we may bring the kids next time! Thanks for a great stay.

Hidden Holiday Getaway

I wanted a cozy retreat from DC over the holiday, and this was perfect. The dog loved running around the lot and taking walks around the vineyard. I loved the views of the pond, the eagles, and having plenty of space for puzzles, drawing, and reading. I took a speaker for tunes. No wifi but my cell worked fine, as did my hot spot. (Both are Verizon.) The king size bed is super comfortable, and I appreciated the nicer linens.Great location — 10 minutes from groceries, 15 minutes from downtown and beaches. I planned meals for the hot plate, and it was easy enough without a tradition oven/stove top. As a solo woman traveler, I felt safe. Amy is a stellar host. There was a small hiccup with checkin, and she was super helpful and more than accommodating. Go say hi to the Vineyard team, and if you like beef bourguignon, buy a bottle of the Right Bank for your next stew. It was delicious.

Weekend Wine Getaway

My husband and I booked this little retreat months ago. Then my father passed away at the end of March. We almost cancelled this trip. I’m SO glad we didn’t. This is exactly what we needed! The house is adorable and comfortable. It’s so peaceful and calming. The no TV was a nice break from the world. We did have cell service. It’s literally on the property of Ingleside Winery. So, if you’re a wine lover it’s perfect. They offer great wines! Colonial Beach is a short drive away for restaurants and fun. But we enjoyed kicking back at the house and listening to music and drinking wine. Perfect place to unplug and recharge!

Excellent little getaway spot! The cabin is adorable, well-decorated, and well stocked with offline activities. The little AC unit really puts in work and we were never sweaty. The location does a great job of placing you in a perfect viewing location for birds, turtles, and butterflies. We were able to walk over to the winery fairly easily.

The cabin was great. Ingleside vineyards was very nice. The area around was nothing special. Colonial Beach seemed like it was very outdated. Like it might have been a nice place 15-20 years ago. Very underwhelming food selections.

Peaceful, just as described

Amy was very communicative and accommodating. The home and location was beautiful and had everything we needed. While we didn't get to spend much time in the area/cabin itself, we used it as a hub for business in Washington DC. The time we spent in the cabin however was still pleasant and memorable!

Why they chose this property

This cabin is so peaceful. It's on a stocked fishing pond and you can walk to Ingleside Winery. It's only 10 minutes from the downtown adorable area of Colonial Beach with great seafood, beaches, shopping, golf cart rentals, antiquing, and history. It is also close to historic areas like Stratford Hall, George Washington's birthplace, James Monroe's birthplace. Within 20 minutes of Westmoreland State Park as well. The cabin is like a comfy step back in time. There is no WIFI but most have great cell service, it's extrememly private with an abundance of nature to view, and a full kitchen minus a oven adn dishwasher, although there is a hot plate, toaster oven, and microwave. There are window ac units that do an amazing job of cooling down the little cabin too. It has everything you need for a relaxing stay.

What makes this property unique

A stocked fishing pond, walk to the winery! Lots of nature around to view and so peaceful and quiet.

A rustic cabin in the woods! Think a little bit more glam than glamping!

As always, with any unique, and rustic cabin, we try our best to have it pest free, however sometimes in a ritual setting there are things that can not be helped.
