About this house rental

We want to share our little slice of heaven with you on the Northern Neck. The house sits on almost 4 acres on an inlet just off the Corrotoman and Rappahanock Rivers. Bring your boat and dock it at our deep water dock. You can also rent a boat just around the corner at Yankee Point Marina. This peaceful house is perfect for fishing, crabbing, kayaking, canoeing, paddleboarding, swimming, or just taking a break from city life. We have lots of toys for you to enjoy with the house.
The house has 5 bedrooms and 3 full baths. Three of the bedrooms and two full bathrooms are located upstairs and the additional bedroom and bathroom are located in the basement. There is also a 2 car garage where we store the toys. We have 1 paddleboard, 2 children's kayak, 1 adult kayak, and a water mat that can be used with the rental of the house. Most of the rooms have multiple beds that make it convenient for families with kids. Enjoy having your breakfast on the huge screened in porch or enjoy a glass of wine on the dock as you fish. Take a kayak out in the morning and you might even see a dophin or two or our Heron who lives in our inlet.
The Location of the house is perfect for quiet evenings at home by the firepit or a quick ride to nearby towns. The house is only a 20 minute drive to the town of Kilmarnock and White Stone, Va. Both have quaint shops and restaurants and a few wineries nearby. You can also visit the beautiful Tides Inn hotel by car or take your boat from the house for lunch or dinner. Visit Belle Isle state park and enjoy 7 miles of beaches and explore their trails and wetlands which is only 10 minutes from the house. You can also order food from Ellen's Country store (3 milles) or head to The Oaks restaurant which is a 10 minute drive from the house.

We hope you enjoy the house as much as we have. We have decorated the house with bright and happy colors to make it feel like a vacation. Let the fun and memorable times begin.

The host was very quick in communications. Even let us into the owners closet to change a light bulb. The location was perfect as it was 2 miles from our family we visited. The open concept layout worked well for us.The dock was a bonus so we could get around by boat. One more bathroom upstairs on the main floor would be ideal but otherwise a great stay. We would definitelystay again.thank you Francesca for all your help in describing the layout so we could plan out rooms.

Francesca was very helpful and communicative. The kitchen is decently appointed considering there isn’t much in the area to grab a random pot of pan if needed (I think the only thing we considered was ramekins otherwise every thing else was there!) I def recommend Walmart delivery meeting you at check in, it was the best decision we made. This house was great for us for a winter break but I definitely see how a summer trip would absolutely be off the charts fantastic. We are military and this location was about halfway for all family to meet and a great area to walk dogs as it’s quietly set in the country. Thanks Francesca!

The property was clean, but there were cob webs on light fixtures. Light bulbs were burnt out in the master bathroom, and bathroom on main floor. The shower light in the master bathroom did not work. The soaking tub would not hold water, the drain was broken. The toilet in the basement bathroom would not flush, no water in the tank. Contacted owners about the ac not working properly, was holding a temperature of 78 while being set at 72, and they graciously gave 50 dollars back on a three night stay. Had to go look for bathroom linens, was not placed in bathrooms. The linens were stored in the basement.
