Excellent Family Vacation

One of the best properties we have ever stayed at. It was so well stocked with everything. The kitchen cabinets were labeled and contained everything you could possibly need. The house was clean and in excellent condition. We loved having a beach area that was so private. There were nine adults, three small children and two babies in our group and there was plenty of room in the house for all of us. I would highly recommend this property.

Wonderful home for large family gathering

The home is very nice and in a great location. Beautiful views and easy access to the beach. As a previous guest stated, a new house is within 100 feet of the driveway (not shown in photos). Not a problem for us, but sharing for awareness. Be aware the beach is not private. 3-4 vehicles parked each day near the driveway for families to access the beach. Close to 20 vehicles on the 4th of July.

Great house, nice furnishings

Wanted a private place on the water, pictures don’t show a new home built directly behind this house. The fire pit and hot tub are basically in the front yard of the new house. If privacy aren’t an issue and great views are all the matters then this place is perfect.

Wonderful beach vacation

This home was exactly what we wanted for our family vacation with little kids and grandparents. Plenty of room, very comfortable, clean, and so close to the beach. Not many people on the beach so it felt relatively private; water was gentle and good for kids. Fun to visit the town and then relax at the house by the water in such a peaceful spot.

Jewel on the bay

Picketts Harbor is a wonderful retreat. We loved the walks along the secluded shore and enjoying the beautiful sunset over the bay. From the host to the caretakers, everyone was very friendly and quick to respond to any questions. The house was well appointed with everything we needed for our stay. The whole family enjoyed their stay!

This was a great large home right on the beach! There were ten of us ... grandparents, 2 daughters & husbands, each with 2 young children. All adults had rooms with baths; all kids had a room to sleep in. Beautiful location. Beach was great! The host supplied towels, beach chairs and lots of water toys. Highly recommend!!!

Terrific winter weekend get-away

We had a terrific 2 night stay, February 28-March 2. My daughter turned 16 and we brought her and some girlfriends out for a weekend of celebrating. The house was perfect. It's a beautiful home with a well-appointed kitchen and perfect bedrooms. Plenty of space for our group of 10 to sleep comfortably, and the common area worked well too. Winter can be a tough time in Cape Charles because some things shut down, so this house was terrific because the girls could use the hot tub and go for beach walks. We ordered pizzas and salads from Deadrise the first night, had a great lunch out at The Shanty and found that plenty of shops were open for meandering. Make sure you arrive on time for sunset; the views are incredible. Thanks so much. Hope to come back.

Dolphin House

This was a great place for our family vacation. We had 13 people from three generations. There was more than enough room for us. The property manager was very quick to respond to inquiries. The check-in process was clearly explained and easy to do. We had a fantastic time at the beach! The waves were just right for our little ones. We liked the quiet location. Like previous reviews, the house was very well stocked. We would stay here again. Oh, and we got to see dolphins in the bay a few times!

Convenient location and beautiful views

The views of the bay are beautiful, especially at sunset. We rarely saw anyone else on the beach during our stay and found many interesting shells each day. The kayaks and life vests were a hit and it's a great spot to paddle out for a closer view of the dolphins. The host was very responsive and helpful. When we asked if we could rinse off using the outdoor shower (turned off for winterizing), the property manager came over the same morning and set it up. The home was very clean and welcoming and we enjoyed spending time there with family.

Home, Away from Home!!

The dolphin Bay house is the by far the best property we have been to. Very clean. Pat has provided for everything in the house. You will be amazed at the amenities. Did not have to carry a lot when we travelled to the property. We wanted a property on the beach for my son’s 10th birthday. Linda, the house cleaner, surprised my son by putting up placard outside the property and also leaving balloons related to Star Wars and Harry Potter. My son was super excited. We had a wonderful time on the property and also the beach which is almost like a private beach as there is no one around. The last day, we ended the trip by citing dolphins which made our trip complete. Would come back to this property again in heartbeat.

Our favorite spot

This house is everything you’d imagine and more. This was our third year staying and we absolutely love it for our family. The location is incredible. The home is well kept and clean. The beds are quite comfortable and the extra twin beds in rooms make it easy to accommodate children. The owners are responsive and very kind. The beach: Wonderful calm swimming for all ages and beautiful beach. The kayaks were a wonderful addition, however the beach access was so rough this year it was nearly impossible to carry them down and up from the beach. Getting young children and beach gear up/down the rocky drop-off was quite a challenge this year despite being so close to the shore. The beach access is really the only thing that could improve with this amazing location. Everything on property is 10 stars, I just hope the price doesn’t continue to rise as it was quite an investment to stay this summer. Thanks for another great stay and for the family memories we’ve made here!
