About this property

Waterfront with Private Pier and Tranquil Water views!

  • Dive into this charming waterfront cottage with eclectic decor to relax, renew, and rediscover. Relax on the deck or dock staring at the mesmerizing water during the day or gazing at the stars at night. Renew with yoga or meditation in the sunroom, or a bubble bath in the bathtub. Rediscover nature while fishing/crabbing or watching a variety of birds from waterfowl to soaring eagles. With a variety of spaces to choose from, lose yourself reading or writing a good book or find yourself trying something completely new. Feed your soul with good nutrition by whipping up your own culinary creations in the fully equipped kitchen or on the gas grill or try someone else's creations with an outing to a local restaurant. Sleep soundly on king/queen size beds with fresh linens and pillow toppers in bedrooms with room darkening blinds and remote-controlled ceiling fans. If surfing is more your speed, you can surf the internet or stream your movies/shows on the TV or your devices with high-speed internet via Wi-Fi. For those with a more adventurous spirit, a pier with covered boat slip offers opportunities for boaters, kayakers, jetskiers, sunbathers, and swimmers alike. A 4 ft mlw (mean low water) depth makes docking your watercraft simple.
    There are plenty of area attractions and events to explore too! There are beaches, state parks, history, museums, antiques, shopping, restaurants, and wineries.

Beautiful and peaceful

My husband and I loved our visit. The home was so clean (a big deal for me), well-stocked, and beautifully decorated. Beds are super comfortable and the whole home is so spacious. The community is quiet and peaceful and views of the river are just spectacular. We will definitely visit again.

Just lovely

The home is charming and equipped with almost everything a guest could need. The location is great. Views are spectacular. We caught fish, took long walks, and explored the area. Shops and restaurants in the middle peninsula and northern neck area that we visited were very nice. The hosts were very responsive. Will try to visit every year.

Relaxing Get Away

The property was very nice inside, very comfortable, and also had nice outside areas from which to enjoy the beautiful view. All amenities that one would need to enjoy a relaxing vacation were available. This was our summer vacation, but we wanted to spend much of our time relaxing at a nice place with a great view to read, do crafts, etc. and this was a wonderful place for it. We would like to stay here again in the future.

Lovely Ferris Creek

Our stay was just about perfect! A beautiful home on a beautiful property with every amenity we needed. The private dock was great for fishing and just relaxing. The owners were friendly and responsive. The area offers quaint little towns, nice shops and good eateries. Our four day get away was "just what the doctor ordered." We would not at all hesitate to rent the property again.

Recharge get away

A beautiful, clean and well-appointed waterfront home with all the comforts. The views from the house, especially at sunset, and peaceful water sounds from the deck and dock were ideal. Lisa was a friendly and easy-to-reach host who clearly cares about creating a positive guest experience.

Beautiful Sunsets on the Creek

Nice clean place. The well water was a bit odorous but the water pitcher helped resolve some of the issues. Very relaxing though.

Relaxation at its Best!

We had a wonderful week at Lisa and Portia's lovely cottage! I could have stayed another week. The home is tastefully decorated and the view excellent. It is conveniently located to visit a number of different areas. My husband fished while I went to area potteries and vintage stores. Restaurants and grocery stores were never more that 20 minutes away and very easy drives. We rested, read and relaxed. The home is outfitted with every thing you need. We did a lot of cooking and enjoyed many dishes that we don't usually cook at home. My only disapointment was that we brought too much food and didn't get to try but one local restaurant. Thanks so much for letting us stay in your lovely home.

A beautiful and restful spot!

I had a fantastic stay at the cottage in Gloucester. It is very comfortable, nicely decorated, and stocked with everything I needed. The views from the sun room and the back deck are stunning and beautiful. Most importantly, Lisa was a wonderful host. When I had issues with the TV (turned out to be nothing more than dead batteries on the remote needing to be replaced), she came right out to help,which was honestly more than I expected. In addition, we had a brief but strong storm one of the nights I was there (which does happen, of course), and the power to the neighborhood went out for perhaps two hours. Everything I needed was on hand (candles, flashlight, etc.) and she stayed in touch via text with updates until the lights were back on, which made me feel safe and cared for. I used my time at the cottage to rest in between work activities, and to see a bit of the lovely part of the world where the cottage is located. The sun room was a particularly nice spot to relax. The neighborhood was quiet and the cottage felt very private.Highly recommended! I definitely hope to return before too long.

We live in the county but just needed some extra room for our visiting nephew. I was very familiar with area so it was an easy decision. We had so much planned for his visit but he was addicted to fishing after day one so a lot of our time was spent on the dock fishing and crabbing. It was a wonderful week. The pictures of the house are exactly as it is.
