We had a great time and loved all of the amenities, and the peaceful and quiet surroundings of our stay in Urbanna! The deck, dock, and pool were fantastic, and the house was clean and comfortable.

Thank you so much for the kind words! We’re thrilled to hear you enjoyed the deck, dock, and pool—those are definitely some of our favorite spots to take in the quiet surroundings. It was a pleasure hosting you, and we’re so glad you found the house comfortable and clean. We’d love to welcome you back to Urbanna anytime!
The house was clean and well stocked with kitchen utensils and other needs for grilling on the blackstone. We had an issue with operating the thermostat and TV, which was user error, but the host was quick to reply and help fix the issue.

Thank you so much for the 5-star review! We’re thrilled you enjoyed the Blackstone and found the kitchen well-stocked for your needs. We are always happy to help with any questions during a stay—no matter how small—so we're glad we could get the TV and thermostat sorted quickly for you. You’re welcome back anytime!
We had a wonderful time in Urbana. The house was set up with everything we might need for a relaxing stay. We enjoyed kayaking in the creek every day. The view from the dock was absolutely beautiful.
Amenities at the house were top notch! All necessities were stocked. Furniture (couches) and beds were comfortable. Sitting at the end of the dock was very peaceful in the morning or evening.

Great girls getaway!
Wish our weekend was longer to enjoy this sweet house a bit more. Everything we needed in this beautiful home, so cozy. Pool was cold, but it didn't stop me - just my sister and daughter! Sat down by the river the whole day and just enjoyed the sun and wildlife. Also had a few great meals at local restaurants. Hoping to visit again next year!

Thank you so much for the sweet review! I’m so glad you were able to spend a full day soaking up the sun and enjoying the wildlife by the river—that’s truly one of the best ways to spend time here. I admire your bravery for jumping in the pool! We would love to host you, your sister, and your daughter again next year for a longer stay.

5 Star Property in a beautiful place!
Wonderful property on a picture of Creek in Urbanna, Virginia. We enjoyed our entire weekend thoroughly for oyster festival. The house is immaculate and well appointed and the beds were very comfortable and you can tell the owners put a lot of sweat equity into their renovations. We will be back!
We loved our stay at Heron's Hideaway. The house was immaculately clean. The host provided lots of accommodations - plenty of clean towels, shampoo, conditioner and soap, pool towels, etc. Kim was great to work with and responded to all of our communication immediately. The house is a perfect spot to camp out and relax. We visited a couple small beaches within an hour of the house, and Williamsburg but could easily see staying at the house the whole time between the pool, dock, and kayaks.

little bit of paradise
This home was just amazing with great views, amenities, and was super clean. Home is very private and in a beautiful setting with not a bad view in the entire house. The house was super clean and inviting. Sitting by the pool and out on the boat dock watching blue herons and other birdlife was so peaceful. There is plenty of grass area to walk the dog. The home owner provided well written instructions for using items in the house. All appliances worked and all areas were well lit. The host, Kim, was so pleasant to deal with in making sure we were comfortable and answer any questions that we had. She even called us to let us know the house would be ready prior to the arrival time if we wanted to check in early. The mattress and pillows were very comfortable. and the kitchen ware was plentiful in great condition. This is a well planned home with great seating areas in the sun room and living room and the kitchen table with the water views were very nice. We came to relax, and this home certainly fit the bill.
