I don't think I could encompass what a wonderful stay we had in one short review. The description and overview of the property is straight forward and provides great detail, including the uniqueness of this rental. The cottage itself is nestled under towering, giant, pines, and dense green foliage. Creating a level of privacy and comfort, even though there is another house nearby, you still feel like you're in an enchanted little forest. The interior of the cottage is well maintained with attention paid to the lovely historic aspects of what I can only imagine is an original Northern Neck river front home. From the built-in to the vintage sconces, original flooring and pine cabinets. The cottage is also immaculate. We travel with our dogs A LOT, and we have never stayed at a pet friendly rental that was so clean and well maintained! You can tell immediately that this property is close to the heart of the owners as you're greeted by a photo of Mom and Pop, next to binder full of valuable information for your stay. The owners are very responsive and kind. The private beach is it's own little oasis and the water is shallow and perfect for kids or dogs. The views from the screened in porch are breathtaking. We will be back!!
