Quiet and relaxing winter stay
Beautiful view of the water during the day and endless stars at night. The place was well stocked and provided everything we needed so we didn't even need to leave the house. It was a perfect getaway for a relaxing weekend. The host was very gracious and thoughtful. We'll definitely return in the future.

About the host

Hosted by Dean and Cathy Chenault

Host profile image
Greetings! We are Dean and Cathy Chenault, the blessed owners of Bay Views, on the quaint island village of Gwynn. We both grew up in Virginia and love spending time on the water. It is satisfying sharing our cottage with family, friends and guests and to hear their tales of delight seeing the dolphins swim off shore or the beauty of moon-glow on the surf. They speak of renewal on the bay, in their boat, with the salt spray on their skin, as they turn the mainsail into the wind. There are so many memories being made here. We welcome you to create and experience your own memories. See you soon! 🏖️🌞😎🌅🦮☄️✨🐬

Why they chose this property

We sailed our Gloucester 19 with our sons and dog for years at Queen's Creek Marina on the Piankatank River. We always dreamed of owning a piece of island life for ourselves and just made it happen in 2012. Little did we realize, Dean's childhood friend purchased his home around the corner that same month! Great minds!

What makes this property unique

We fell in love with our island home upon entering the front door the first time. Water views were everywhere you looked. We love the corner property and the second story deck for observing water life, enjoying a meal, or relaxing in the sun. The propane fireplace on the sun room is great for cool evenings or throw wide the glass doors for that island breeze and to hear the waves lapping the shore. It is like stepping back in time to a quieter small town lifestyle. Your cares lift and your stress melts away.
