About this property

The Harbor House - Waterfront Home with Private Pier & Amazing Views!

Harbor House is your own private waterfront retreat—an ideal escape for relaxation and recreation. This spacious 4-bedroom, 2-bath home offers 1,850 square feet of comfort, set on 2.5 serene acres. Every bedroom features stunning water views, creating a peaceful and picturesque experience from sunrise to sunset.

Step outside and enjoy the private pier, an expansive deck, and sweeping views of the water. Whether you’re sipping your morning coffee at sunrise or unwinding as the sun sets, this home offers a truly unique vantage point for both.

For outdoor fun, Harbor House is fully equipped with 6 kayaks and a canoe (life jackets included), bikes, fishing poles, cornhole boards, a spikeball set, and crab pots. Paddle through calm waters, explore the scenic one-mile gravel road by bike or on foot, or simply relax and take in the surroundings at your own pace.

The oversized deck provides plenty of space for lounging, sunbathing, and gathering with family and friends. Nestled along Winter Harbor, which opens to the Chesapeake Bay, the property offers breathtaking views in every direction.
Prefer to stay indoors? Cozy up with a book or enjoy your favorite shows and movies on the Smart TV with DirecTV, or browse the Blu-ray collection—all while still taking in those beautiful water views. High-speed fiber optic Wi-Fi ensures you stay connected throughout your stay.

Conveniently located near beaches, Williamsburg, Yorktown, and Richmond, Harbor House is also just minutes from the charming towns of Mathews and Gloucester. There, you’ll find local shops, restaurants, a farmers market, antique stores, and more. The fully equipped kitchen has everything you need for cooking and entertaining, and for a night off, several local restaurants in Mathews even offer delivery.

Come experience Harbor House for yourself—you may never want to leave.

The property had everything we needed to cook in the kitchen and crab off the dock. We enjoyed the beauty of the property including the indoor living spaces, the spacious deck, the firepit, and the private dock. Harbor House was a peaceful place to unwind, enjoy the outdoors, and to spend quality family time.

This place was amazing for our family. My boys absolutely love the water and fishing. They were on the dock the majority of the time. They enjoyed learning how to do crabbing and going out in the kayaks. If we venture back to Virginia, we will stay again!

Perfect place to relax and enjoy

House was the perfect choice for our family vacation!! The house itself is beautiful, clean, and had everything we needed. Just as nice as the pictures, if not better. We enjoyed hours of fun during the day on the dock fishing and crabbing. At night the fire pit was the perfect place to be. Would definitely recommend

Peaceful Waterfront Location

The home was just as pictured. It was spacious and clean. The location is remote and private but not too far from shopping. The water view is exceptional and you will certainly spend most of your time enjoying the view and waterfront location with abundant fish and crabs. We will definitely book again.

About the host

Hosted by Buddy & Robin Thompson

Host profile image
My wife and I are enjoying this season of our life as grandparents and getting to watch the families of our children grow. We currently live in Richmond, VA and have been married for 32 years. We have two daughters, two son in laws, and two grandchildren. We are blessed and thankful.

Why they chose this property

Our family fell in love with Mathews County and this home in particular as soon as we found it. We love our time together here at what we have affectionately named "Robin's Nest." We all learned how to kayak here, our grandkids loves to chase the crabs and catch fish, and we always enjoy watching the sunsets and sunrises that are different every day. The large deck, amazing water views, and the fire-pit keep us outside most of the time. If we aren't riding the bikes or fishing, we may be playing corn hole or napping. You can see the Chesapeake Bay from the private pier and kayak to the Bay easily. When we want a beach day, there are two beaches just minutes from the house. The peace and serenity we feel here has to be experienced to fully appreciate.

When we are ready to go somewhere, the town of Mathews is only 12 minutes away with restaurants, museums, antique stores, farmers markets, and various other places including a grocery store. Gwinn's Island is just a few minutes further away. Williamsburg is only 55 minutes away with so many attractions of it's own: Water Country USA, Busch Gardens, Colonial Williamsburg, and tons of outlet stores and restaurants. Yorktown and Jamestown are also easy day trips that are well worth the time.

We look forward to every opportunity we can to be here. We hope you enjoy our home.

What makes this property unique

We wanted to make sure you can enjoy your time here the way we do so we have kayaks, a canoe, fishing equipment, corn hole boards, games, books, and movies for you to enjoy. We also have fiber optic wifi so you can stream your favorite movies or even work remotely and stay connected (if you need to). The water views and relaxing atmosphere are what make this property unique and such a great place to vacation.
