Host was very informative and great communication throughout our stay! Wonderful home that was better than our large family could have hoped for! Breathtaking views on a generously seated porch each morning and only a 15 minute ferry ride to Williamsburg! Highlight of our trip no traffic and ferry rides each day! We hope to stay here again next year on our family’s annual vacation. Fully stocked kitchen and a yard big enough to have a family soccer game. We truly had a wonderful stay! Thank you!
Duke and Dorothy were great hosts and their place was excellent. Close drive to everything and a personal beach if you don't want to venture out. House is very clean and Vrbo description correct. We would go back again.
This was our annual "Sisters Trip". We all had a nice time. There were five of us and the 4 bedrooms worked out well. Dorothy was very helpful in suggusting things to do. We loved shopping in Smithfield (went there 2 of the days). The ferry was also a fun adventure and sitting on the beach of the James River was very relaxing. Over all, we enjoyed our 7 day visit with perfect weather and great views of the James River.
A cozy, clean country home with stunning river views. We loved having access to the riverside beach. It was perfect for finding beautiful shells. While it’s pretty remote, it’s just a short ferry ride to Williamsburg. It was the perfect spot for a girls’ getaway weekend, with all the comforts of home. We would definitely stay here again if we’re in the area and highly recommend it to anyone looking for a quiet, relaxing escape!
Great communication with the owner. Enjoyed being close to the ferry. Had an easy drive exploring both sides of the river. Highly recommend this beautiful house for a vacation.
Dorothy and Duke were great! So helpful and kind! The home was clean and absolutely beautiful! I can’t say enough good things!! It felt like a home away from home. One our best stays ever!
The property was great. Spacious, clean and well-stocked. The river views were beautiful. The ferry was super convenient to all the historic sites. Would definitely stay again!
Very nice quiet place. Very up to date and clean. The nicest place we have stayed since using VRBO. Host was very helpful and available for information. Will stay there anytime we are in the area
The property is so beautiful. Very peaceful and quiet setting. We enjoyed the private beach and taking in the views of the James River! Great house for kids with plenty of room to run and play. Would definitely stay here again if we are in the area.

We are so glad your family enjoyed your stay. There is so much history and things to see and do in our area. We have numerous repeat guests and would love to host your next adventure.
We had three generations meeting at the property and it was a wonderful experience. We enjoyed the view of the river and the comfort of the space. Taking the ferry over to Williamsburg and the sites was convenient and easy to use. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay! Thanks for a great trip.
Great property. Plenty of space and enjoyed the area. We enjoyed relaxation and the kids loved the Ferry ride to Williamsburg. Property owners are great with communication and property was even better than the photos. Would definitely stay again if we are in the area.
Beautiful home with amazing view. The host was fantastic and anticipated our every need. The home is well stocked with plenty of towels, and kitchen items. Easy access to the ferry. We had a wonderful time, and wouldnt change a thing.8 adults- ages 50-84Vickie
My husband and I loved our stay! The home is clean, cozy, welcoming. We spent many an evening on the porch (Happy Hour!). Dorothy is a lovely and responsive host. We enjoyed our visits to Williamsburg, Jamestown, Smithfield and Chippoke State Park; especially Jamestown Settlement.
We had a great stay here! The house was exactly as listed. Every evening the kids swam in the river and we hunted for shells and sharks teeth. The kitchen is well stocked. We would definitely book again!
