Relaxing stay, water views, birds aplenty

Property was clean and exactly as described. We thoroughly enjoyed walking everywhere - to restaurants, the public beach, sweet local neighborhood. Bonus bird viewing (in May) with the pair of osprey nested by the water, feeding their babies. Very relaxing visit. Would definitely stay here again on our next trip to Colonial Beach.

Relaxation at its best!

Cute little house in a nice quiet neighborhood. The private beach area was perfect for taking our dog into the water, and we appreciate how the town was so pet friendly . Loved the quaintness of the area, how friendly everyone was, and the ease of getting around in the golf cart. The owner is very communicative and provided us with a smooth process throughout. An overall enjoyable and relaxing experience…we would stay here again!

Good Location to take your pet.

This was our first time to Colonial Beach. The neighborhood is great and we took many walks with our pup. We were able to walk many places to get food/coffee. The home was clean and the beds were comfortable. The place has the normal wear and tear of a rental and the host asked us to text with any issues/or possible repairs which was great. .

Very quiet and relaxing. Nice location.

We enjoyed our stay over the Fourth of July weekend. The town of Colonial Beach was very quiet! Except for the weekend, not much is happening, shops are closed and very little night life or shopping during the week. Great property to just chill and get away. Decent fishing from shared dock. Beautiful sunsets! This is NOT a place to party! Very laid-back neighborhood.

Super location with private beach access

The highlight of the house is the little private beach and semi-private dock. The dock is a nice size and feels really sturdy. You can also see the water from the deck and get some breezes coming off the river. The location is really close to the little downtown area so you can pretty much walk anywhere. The house looks recently remodeled and very clean. The kitchen had modern appliances and plenty of counter room for cooking. Perfect size for a couple of adults or a family. The owner is very helpful and we had no issues during our stay. We will be back for sure!

Still true--Location. Location. Location

What a great little getaway house. It most definitely is a small little bungalow but perfect for a small family (1 kid or two if they don't mind sharing a bed) and I think you said that was all. The location is beyond convenient and just a quick walk to everything in town. We brought our dog and cannot recommend staying there enough! Although the yard isn't fenced, if your dog is well trained and well behaved you won't miss it. You are just up the street from a private stretch of beach where fido & kids can play, watch osprey & ducks or jump in the water. Back at the house the appliances are all newer, internet TV & wifi all available and there's a washer & dryer if you need it. Only one bathroom so that's something to be aware of but not an issue. Communication with owner was easy and responsive. Would definitely stay again!

NYE 2023 on the Potomac

My family and I needed a mini vacation to start off the New Year right. The three of us and our senior pup had a wonderful stay at this cozy and quiet oasis. We enjoyed how close it was to town and that everything was within walking distance. The town was welcoming and we enjoyed walking the dog each night along the beach. We would highly recommend this cottage for families with or without kids. The private beach and dock area is breathtaking and nice to have all to yourself, or at least your family and the family in the stone house. Great host who was communicative from the start. No problems. Would be happy to return. Thank you Nate!

Fun Little River Town!!!

Great communication with host from start to finish. A great lil' town for sure. Even in the winter!!! My wife and I went to GW's birthplace, Dockside, Ice House, CB Brewery, Julie's Coffee House, several beaches (lots of sea glass!), Gitie's Thrift Warehouse, and so much more. We missed out on Bobby K's Roadside Cafe because they were closed for a private party... next time for sure! The home itself was awesome. Very clean and everything you need. Only one house between the rental and the beach! The host owns that house too... LOL. We had a great time. Thank you!
