About this property

River Glow Cottage 3-BR Waterfront Escape

Consider this charming cottage a reprieve from the daily stresses of life while you visit the Rappahannock River. The primary bedroom is bright and comfortable and located just off the kitchen, with easy access to the bathroom. Furnished with a queen bed, it's perfect for relaxing after a full day. The upstairs has two cozy bedrooms with charming sloped ceilings, typical of a Cape Cod -style home. These are smaller, snug spaces- perfect for a comfortable night's sleep with full beds in each and views of the water. The warm, quaint interior keeps everyone comfortable year-round with both heating and air conditioning. The one full bathroom offers a tub/shower combo.

One of the highlights of the cottage is the spacious screened-in porch, perfect for enjoying the outdoors. It’s a wonderful spot to sip your morning coffee, listen to the birds, or unwind in the evening with a glass of wine while taking in the peaceful river breeze. Just off the porch, there is a large patio with a fire pit and seating for 6 to enjoy meals, conversation, or simply soaking in the natural beauty around you.

Guests love the spectacular sunrises and sunsets over the Rappahannock River, which can be enjoyed from the porch, patio, or yard. Whether you’re here for a quiet retreat, fishing trip, or a fun getaway with family and friends, this cottage offers a relaxing place to recharge while surrounded by beautiful waterfront scenery.

Experience the charm of the area and the peaceful beauty of the river with a stay at our cottage.

We had a wonderful relaxing stay! Beds were comfortable and the house had everything we needed. The back porch was my favorite spot in the morning with my coffee overlooking the water . We had perfect weather and caught some fish which was fun. Ready to go back already!

This place was just plain perfect! We loved every minute of it! Heather was a sweetheart and so accommodating! We even needed to borrow a little flour for breakfast, and she had some for us! Very hospitable! The beds were comfortable, and we were able to bring our dog with us. It was the perfect set up, and the dock was so much fun for my kids! We would love to come back again!

A million dollar view of the river from comfortable furniture on the screened porch, with Osprey often at the elevated nest right off shore; an exquisite sunset spot; a cute, cozy cottage with updated decor and furnishings; central air and fans; all the necessities for cooking; and a very responsive, welcoming host!
