Family Vacation

This was a perfect spot for our family, including our 2 dogs! Plenty of room for the 10 of us and 2 dogs to spread out. Love all of the outdoor spaces (firepit, pool, hammock, patio and the large yard to play frisbee and cornhole! We also enjoyed spending time on the pier as well as kayaking (even saw some dolphins)This is a place that would be great year around. I am keeping this home on my list for a fall vacation too!!

Loved this property

The homeowner was always available by phone. We didnt have any issues. We were able to fish and catch crabs. The teenagers loved the paddle boards and game room. We loved all of the little sitting areas in the yard. The pool was amazing. The house was stocked with everything you could need!! We will be staying here again!!! Thank you so much!

Summer vacation and a celebration of life ceremony.

The property is beautiful - overlooking the Chesapeake Bay. We were able to set pots for Chesapeake Bay blue crabs, and also found oysters nearby. Both were excellent after we steamed them in the pot provided. The game room is excellent for pool players, and having a small get together. We were lucky enough to experience two seasons while we were there - hot summer and early Fall. We used the fire pit and also enjoyed the kayaks and the paddle boards. The air conditioning kept the house at 70° when it was 96° outside.

Private retreat

Super clean! It was great to have 2 refrigerators that were completely empty upon arrival. We used the kayaks and paddleboards every day. The pool was great even though it was a bit chilly late May. In an earlier review someone mentioned the pool cleaner, we thought he came at the perfect time and left the pool crystal clear. The beds were very comfortable and the porch was everyone's favorite spot. All the appliances are very new and the kitchen is well stocked. You won't be disappointed if you choose this property for your next vacay.

Great house and amazing view

We rented this house for an extended weekend and had a great time. The property is very secluded and private with only one house down the road. The view here is amazing. Water views from 2 sides. I brought my boat and dropped it at the ramp a few miles down and tied it to the dock on the property for the weekend. The kitchen had everything we needed to cook at the house and labels on the doors helped. There is a detailed book about the home that will answer any question you may have. Already looking to return.

Perfect Escape!

We spent several nights at this wonderful home, and it was everything we could have hoped for and more! Our family consists of our adult children and their spouses and our older teens. The setting is just lovely and the best part about the house are the large windows that bring you right to the water! The main living and dining spaces take advantage of this incredible view! The house layout was perfect for our group, allowing both family space and individual/couples spaces. There were many thoughtful guest items, like plenty of paper products, spices, coffee, and even pool towels already there! We had brought those items with us, but the provided coffee was a lifesaver the morning we left, as we used up the coffee we brought the night before! The best part about this property is the location and wonderful outdoor layout! The driveway winds down a tree-lined road and opens up onto this glorious waterfront space! There is ample lawn for the dogs to run and the pier provides access to fishing, crabbing, and getting out on the water. There are tiny crabs all over the sandy area that our dogs had so much fun sniffing and chasing! They had a great time in the marsh grasses and swimming in the cove, too! There is tranquil garden space with lots of shade, a spacious fire pit area, and so much quiet and privacy! We loved having morning coffee in the Adirondack chairs, overlooking the cove. And, drinks there in the evening! The house is great, but you just want to be outside the whole time, and this property is perfect for that!! We all loved the saltwater pool and there were tons of accessories provided for fun (floats, noodles, balls, etc). Plenty of loungers to lie out and tables too! Just fyi - super dog friendly home/space, but dogs are not allowed in the pool area due to the impact of their fur on the pool filter. We did a little antique shopping around Exmore and surrounding areas and our son and his wife also explored Cape Charles, just a short drive away. Our only regret is that we didn’t book a full week. We hope to be back again and this time for longer. Mary, the owner, is thoughtful and communication was fantastic. Thank you for a memorable and special family time!!

Perfect Family Getaway- Something for everyone

We love the Eastern Shore and being on the bay! This is our 5th year, and 5th house and this was by far our favorite!!! Bay views for days!!! From sun up to sun down there was something to see or do! Very clean! Vintage charm with modern upgrades! Awesome "gameroom/pool house" that we hung out in when it rain! The kids favorite was the pool! We will be returning!!!

Wonderful secluded oasis

Our second time staying at the house. We absolutely love the property and all its surrounding wildlife. Enjoyed spending time hiking, fishing, crabbing, and watching eagles flying over the water. The house is clean and well stocked, and the game room is a great place to spend time in the evenings or rainy days. The hosts are attentive and helpful. Looking forward to visiting again!

Wonderful Experience

My family (adults, kids 9yrs and under, and dogs) and I had an amazing time at this beautiful property. The views of the water surrounding the home were absolutely breathtaking. There was so much to do for the whole family: pool, kayaking, fishing, firepit, taking long walks and enjoying the sights and sounds of nature, and being able to clearly see the stars at night (unlike in the city where we live). The home itself had everything we needed and we loved the personal touches and character of the home. On top of that, there was great communication with the owner and she was very kind/responsive to answer any questions I had. Thank you for sharing your home and allowing us to make memories our family will cherish!

Great place--very private

This property has a lot to enjoy. We liked the game room, dock for fishing and the kayaks. We played a lot of cornhole. We also liked the many outdoor seating areas--there was always somewhere comfortable to sit at any time of day. The site is very private and is somewhat remote from amenties. So it made for a more intimate family reunion without a lot of offsite trips. The site manager was extremely helpful and attentive and the checkin-checkout processes were super smooth.
