Fun Reedville Getaway
The house is adorable and has everything needed to feel at home. The view could not be better, and the perk of having a private beach makes this rental a MUST for those who enjoy being on the water of the Chesapeake Bay. The host quickly responds to questions and gives great tips on places to visit and eat in the area. I cannot wait to go back there!

Beautiful Cottage with an amazing view
This is our second summer staying here. It truly has the best views of the water and great little private beach that my dog and son have the best time on. My son always asks if we can live here forever. It is a great relaxing, peaceful getaway. You will not regret your time here. Thanks for being a great host!

The beach area was beautiful. Good fishing. The house was nice. The only observation I have would be to move the queen bed. The ceiling is very low in that area. We both hit our heads pretty hard in the beginning.

This property was so clean, the views out the windows were spectacular, and the water is right there! I greatly enjoyed the kayak and my dog just loved the privacy he had to play in the water. The host was extremely quick to respond and was one of the nicest hosts we've ever had. Highly recommend this spot and we can't wait to return!

Not really what we expected
We checked in on Friday evening and right away when we take our dog out for a walk the barking starts next door. It was dark so i couldnt see how close the neighbors really are I could only hear barking. Come Saturday morning and we had to enjoy the water from the porch and the back yard due to storms, which is always a possibility when booking in september. We knew that and have had to stay inside properties before due to hurricanses. So we thought we could just relax on the porch or back yard and watch the water. But that wasnt the case..What the pics dont show is that the neighbors property is less than 20 ft from the porch and their 2 little dogs barked at our golden retriever almost non-stop every time we went outside. I imagine if we could have gone to the beach, those dogs couldnt see us and maybe wouldnt have been barking. But we had no choice but to stay on the porch or in the back yard. So be aware that the neighbors property is close by with yappy dogs. As for the house....my family has stayed at plenty of mountain and beach rentals over the past 15 years. We stayed through hurricanes and snow and every time except this one the house was nice enough to make up for it. Not here. Nothing at all special or worth remembering about this house. If you can spend the entire time in the water, it is pry worth it. But otherwise go elsewhere.

KIDS Voted - BEST VACATION EVER
This was an incredible family vacation. My review is way overdue. My family and I stayed mid-August which was the perfect time. My kids which are 8 and 11 said it was the best vacation ever! They really enjoyed digging on the beach looking for sea glass. They also came across a baby seahorse (they released him back into the ocean) and sand crab which was following them around. We did end up grocery shopping at the Food Lion, so we did not leave the house for 5 days! Since we didn’t leave, we overpacked in clothes! I didn’t realize how convenient having a washer/dryer on site was!! We did bring our dog which was the first time he traveled. I am very thankful for the opportunity to travel with our pup because it is hard to vacation with a pet. He loved the beach, and he did swim for the first time (it was a one and done time for him lol). I enjoyed watching the sun rise every morning, watching the osprey, eagles, and dolphins swim by. The beach is very private, and you do have it all to yourself. I would recommend looking into biting fly repellent. They were only a problem on the last day and seem to attack the dog the most. Whatever we brought did not work but you were safe in the water (which felt like bath water in mid-August). The house was clean and there are breathtaking views from every window in the house. We also enjoyed watching the big the ships go by from the porch. We had such a wonderful time and we made many beautiful family memories here.

loved it!!!
everything was fantastic!! The house is comfortble, we were able to enjoy the beach every day and the location was exactly what we wanted! Bring bug spray!! We are very familiar with the northern neck region and knew to bring heavy duty bug spray. If there is a good breeze there is no problem, but if the air is still the flies will destroy you!! Nathan gave great information on places to go and where to eat, Kilmarnock is close and had plenty of shops and restaurants as well. We will def be back!!

Perfect week getaway
Property is exactly as advertised! Beachy and relaxing stay at a well maintained, clean, and really nicely decorated place. Perfect for a vacation with the benefits of the beach but without the crowds. Amazing wildlife watching, too. The private beach is really special and the new porch also adds a wonderful place to take in the views. Last couple of steps down to the beach might be a challenge for the elderly. Upstairs bedroom is well appointed, and on cool nights you can open the window and get the bay breeze. Downstairs bunkbed room is best for kids (no reading lamp and window doesn't have a screen). Prepare to eat in early in the week when restaurants are closed; late in the week we really enjoyed The Crazy Crab, Reedville Market, and Fawn's Delectables. They're not walking distance but are an easy 5-7 minute car ride. Thanks, Nathan!

The view from the beach was amazing!
We had a wonderful weekend, the home was well furnished and our time in the porch was delightful. The beach was almost non-existant during our stay and although the boats described in the listing were there, the process of trying to get them down to the water would have been EXTREMELY difficult, even for two adults.

Weekend get away
I came for some R&R - my daughter was supposed to join me but couldn’t - so it was me and my dog Oliver. We couldn’t have picked a better weekend - monthly farmers market in Irvington and an art festival in Urbanna! Sitting on the porch and just enjoying the view. The home is cute and perfect for one or a couple. Although there are bunk beds available for kids. Home has everything you need to enjoy your stay. Very quiet neighborhood. Ventured into town for crabs and shrimp friendly people all over. I wasn’t able to get in the water this trip since it was too choppy - but would definitely get in and use the kayak that is available. Nathan was always available to answer my questions or concerns. Would definitely come back again.

Little Slice of Heaven! 5 Stars!
My husband and I and our dog thoroughly enjoyed our stay at Nathan's property. We will absolutely be booking another trip! We didn't have any issues when there with anything and spent our long weekend either sitting on the stairs by the water or soaking up the bay from the large front porch or taking in the waterfront views from just about any location inside of the home. At the time of year we came (late October) the beach wasn't visible due to the tide, but if you still wanted to kayak/canoe the water was low enough at times to tread into to launch (we just prefer launching from a flat beach). But missing the beach didn't detract from the enjoyment of the trip. The solitude of just sitting on the stairs by the rocks in such a private area did not disappoint! The home has everything you need, and the decor was cozy and inviting. The furniture and bed were very comfy. We really appreciate when people rent such beautiful homes to dog owners, we hate not being able to take the pup as they are family too! I highly recommend you stop by the not-too-far Main Street, and sample (and you will definitely buy too!) some gourmet popcorn from "Northern Neck Popcorn Bag". It's the most delicious popcorn I've ever had! Nathan was available by text message if we had any questions. All and all, I selfishly hesitate to leave such a great review because I don't want this little gem of a place to ever be too booked to rent again, but Nathan's done good work and deserves the stars. I also felt that the rental pricing was reasonable for what we got. The only thing that would make this place "better" would be a hot tub overlooking the water. Thanks again, Nathan! We look forward to booking in the future!
