Quick Stay Near Yorktown
We had a nice, comfortable stay in Mathews. Our daughter graduated from USCG BM A School in Yorktown, about 35min from this property. She stayed one night with us, along with my husband, my father in law, two teens and two dogs. The house is very dog friendly with supplies and a big yard. Clean, comfortable place to hang out! Awesome communication with host! Great breakfast at Howard-Dooley Cafe just a few minutes away.

Lovely all around
This stay was superb...so much so that we tried to extend. Unfortunately the days we wanted were already booked but the communication with the owners was nearly instantaneous and so appreciated. The home is comfy and exactly as represented in the pics. The yard is enormous which was appreciated by us and our pup. The walk to downtown Mathews was short and the town is sweet. If in the area in the future we will absolutely try to stay at this home again.

Great location near the Chesapeake Bay and small towns full of character. The house was nicely decorated and the beds were very comfortable. We appreciated the small touches, such as the tea on the cute little hot drink bar.

Very clean, comfortable, easy to find and in a great neighborhood. If we are ever back in this area we will definitely be staying here again. There was plenty of room for us all and the kids had a good time playing in the backyard. The beds were comfy as well!
