About this property
Tipsy Mermaid “Rivah House” Kayak/Paddlebaord/Crabbing/Fishing
We want to share our little slice of heaven with you on the Northern Neck. The house sits on almost 4 acres on an inlet just off the Corrotoman and Rappahanock Rivers. Bring your boat and dock it at our deep water dock. You can also rent a boat just around the corner at Yankee Point Marina. This peaceful house is perfect for fishing, crabbing, kayaking, canoeing, paddleboarding, swimming, or just taking a break from city life. We have lots of toys for you to enjoy with the house.
The house has 5 bedrooms and 3 full baths. Three of the bedrooms and two full bathrooms are located upstairs and the additional bedroom and bathroom are located in the basement. There is also a 2 car garage where we store the toys. We have 1 paddleboard, 2 children's kayak, 1 adult kayak, and a water mat that can be used with the rental of the house. Most of the rooms have multiple beds that make it convenient for families with kids. Enjoy having your breakfast on the huge screened in porch or enjoy a glass of wine on the dock as you fish. Take a kayak out in the morning and you might even see a dophin or two or our Heron who lives in our inlet.
The Location of the house is perfect for quiet evenings at home by the firepit or a quick ride to nearby towns. The house is only a 20 minute drive to the town of Kilmarnock and White Stone, Va. Both have quaint shops and restaurants and a few wineries nearby. You can also visit the beautiful Tides Inn hotel by car or take your boat from the house for lunch or dinner. Visit Belle Isle state park and enjoy 7 miles of beaches and explore their trails and wetlands which is only 10 minutes from the house. You can also order food from Ellen's Country store (3 milles) or head to The Oaks restaurant which is a 10 minute drive from the house.
We hope you enjoy the house as much as we have. We have decorated the house with bright and happy colors to make it feel like a vacation. Let the fun and memorable times begin.

Why they chose this property
We fell in love with the Northern Neck a little over 2 years ago. Having a family of 5 it can be hard to find things to do that we all enjoy. We found that when we are at the "Tipsy Mermaid" everyone is happy. There is fun to be had at all ages from kids to grandparents. There is just something special about having a house on the water.
