Amazing Home with Everything You Need!

This home has so many amenities to make your stay very comfortable. It is very thoughtfully appointed with everything you need. The home is beautifully decorated with comfortable beds and furniture. The wraparound porch, pool, and dock make for awesome outdoor living as well. We really enjoyed our time with family here!

Wonderful Vacation

The house is beautiful and spacious. It had everything we needed and then some. My daughter enjoyed the pool as well as using the kayaks to explore. The adults spent most of our time on the huge porch enjoying the water views. The property is very quiet, so if you are looking for a secluded getaway this is the one for you. Communication from the owner was excellent and she was very helpful. Highly recommended and hope to stay here again!

About the host

Hosted by Alison Wilson

Host profile image
As transplants from Annapolis my husband and I have always had a strong affinity for the Chesapeake Bay and the entire region. Having recently discovered the beauty and nature of the Northern Neck region we found this beautiful home on the water that we wanted to share with others. We like to travel around the country and in Europe and in doing so have stayed at a number of VRBO properties that we truly enjoyed and now get to share that same hospitality with others. Please let us know if there's anything you don't see here that we could add to the property, we want to make your stay the best it could possibly be.

Why they chose this property

We found that being situated towards the end of the creek shelters us from larger storms and seas that you find on the Bay while still being just a few short turns from open water. The homesite is peaceful with regular breezes and is just minutes from the local conveniences of Kilmarnock, White Stone and Reedville.

What makes this property unique

The Coastal Carolina design with its open spaces, hardwood floors, screened porch and pool make it a comfortable setting for families as well as couples. Here you can be as away from the crowds while still being only minutes from local attractions, restaurants and marinas.
