The cottage is one of two on the property. The front cottage and property are fully yours to enjoy. Behind the main cottage there is a small cottage where the owners sometimes stay, so you may see them out and about. Your privacy will be respected but the owners are happy to chat about the property, the surrounding area, or the fun things you’ve seen in the river or the woods, that you may have questions about.
The cottage, located in the Northern Neck region of Virginia, is in a rural area but with ample restaurants, wineries, historical sites, farmer’s markets (in season) and state parks within easy driving distance. Marinas that offer charter fishing and day trips to Tangier Island are located nearby. The cottage is approximately a 15-minute drive to Heathsville, a 20-minute drive to Reedville and a 30-minute drive to Kilmarnock.
