Will Definitely Return
This place is beautiful, & it’s a perfect getaway from the city. It was exactly as advertised on VRBO. The space was clean & stocked with many essentials. We also appreciated the small touches, such as the baby gate, as we traveled with a toddler. We definitely plan on visiting again!

Lovely Cabin on the Cove
The cabin was exactly as described - beautiful, serene, and clean. We had a good time. Weather cold have been better, but we were still able to catch a couple dozen crabs early in the week. Place is a bit remote, it takes awhile to get to other places, but that is what we like. Would recommend this rental to those who love privacy and the serenity of being on the water.

Amazing place!
We stayed for a week and had an amazing time! We caught crabs off the back deck. We loved going to Vir-Mar beach and all the local fishing spots. We also tried out the sunset cruise and had a fantastic time! Definitely an amazing vacation and can't wait to go again in the future! Any questions we had were answered quickly, Ryan was a fantastic host!

Labor Day holiday Retreat
Cabin on the Cove is a lovely home in a beautiful setting. We enjoyed all that the home had to offer! It is most spacious and comfortable. The cove was wonderful for kayaking and my granddaughter taught herself to stand up and paddle board. We played croquet on the lawn several times. Many thanks for a great holiday!

Great cabin on the water!
We loved our stay at Ryan’s cabin. We especially enjoyed using the SUPs and kayaks he provided. The kitchen has all the equipment you need to prepare meals, and there are plenty of towels. Ryan was wonderful to communicate with - very responsive, kind, and professional. Thanks for a fun and memorable stay!

Peace and Quiet
We enjoyed our stay. The house was clean, the view was beautiful and it was secluded and peaceful, yet not a bad drive to restaurants and stores. The owner was very responsive and when the grill ran out of propane while cooking our dinner, he rushed over with his own tank from his personal grill. The kayaks, paddle boards and crab cages were a big hit with the kids.

Lovely Chesapeake Getaway
The Cabin on the Cove is a perfect getaway for a family looking for a peaceful and serene location to relax and enjoy nature. It’s quiet with lots of bird activity. We saw osprey, bald eagles, and many others. The quiet cove on the Little Wicocomo River is excellent for kayaking or paddle boarding. If crabbing is your thing, the host provides some crab pots. The house is spacious and well equipped. The host provides great information about the local community and things to do. Many games for family fun are available and the house has a screened in porch that offers nice shade and an open deck in back overlooking River. Overall, we had a great stay with Ryan. Thank you.

Calm and peaceful
The property was great. Very quiet. We played on the kayaks and paddleboards everyday. My kids also went swimming around the dock everyday. It gently slopes down, so there was enough shallow water for my 4 year old to swim, too. The weather was absolutely perfect the beginning of June. We caught a few crabs, which was fun and delicious. Overall a fun and relaxing stay!

Family getaway
This was our family vacation for the summer, the cabin had everything we needed. The kids had a blast on the paddle boards and kayaks, the owner even gave us bait for the crab traps (the kids thought this was really neat). Was not to far to drive to do lots fun things Virgina had to offer.

Dream Cabin in a peaceful location
Our family loved this property. The inside space is ample and gorgeous. It is well equipped inside and outside. Lots of areas to rest and plenty of equipment for water activities. The second floor was a little warm but the owners are working on it. Timely communication with the host and check in instructions and location were pretty straight forward. Highly recommended!

Relaxing getaway with friends
This place is a wonderful, quaint, cabin. The location is removed from the hustle and bustle elsewhere. Ryan was a wonderful host, very responsive to messages. Two things happened during and after our stay. One was when a plastic chair back broke when a friend sat in it normally, but it wasn’t a big deal. Ryan was very understanding and told us it was probably the winter that had been harsh on them. Second, he was willing to check when I accidentally left my water heater there. Whoopsie on my part, but a wonderful host. Thanks Ryan and family for making it such a great place to stay!

Great spot!
What a wonderful cabin on the water. If you want a place off the beaten path, this is it. While it was just my dog and I, this place could easily sleep 12. WiFi worked great. Nice fire pit with wood. Weber grill worked great! While I didn’t have the best of weather, the large leather couch came in handy for those afternoon naps. Ryan was quick to respond to questions. If you want a place to relax and unwind, this is it.

Summers end getaway.
Place was a good size for 6 adults and 2 toddlers. The kitchen was a great size for cooking and we had room for everyone at the kitchen table. We had a great time using the kayaks and paddle board, and we got to enjoy the fireplace. Our yellow lab really enjoyed the river access and did lots of swimming. It’s close to the Vir-Mar local beach and quick drive to reedsville, Kilmarnock, and Heathsville, all of which we got to enjoy. It was the perfect end of summer trip.

A wonderful, relaxing vacation away from the city & suburbs!
"Wanted to thank you for the wonderful time we had at your Cabin-on-the Cove. It's a beautiful and relaxing setting. The characterization of the home as a "cabin" doesn't do it justice!!! It's exceptionally attractive both inside and out and the grounds were perfect for walking our dogs and providing dramatic views for me and my adult children. You provided everything we needed. We cooked many meals on the grill and appreciated your providing the extra tank of propane (which, by the way, we did not use). We - meaning my sons - caught enough crabs for for two separate meals for our family of four. We were able to visit several of the surrounding Northern Neck communities and enjoyed our walks through their main streets. We also visited the nearby Vir-Mar beach on two early mornings and were impressed by the 180-degree vista of the Chesapeake Bay. Thanks again."
