We enjoyed our week in Colonial Beach. Our cottage was clean, comfortable and well-stocked. We will return; and we will select The Four Season's Cottage. It was inviting and relaxing. It it perfect for two to four people. With only one bathroom, five or six would be crowded. The dining area is spacious, but the actual living area is on the small size, but comfty and cozy for a couple or a family of four. We loved the area, a lot of historic attractions, we enjoyed swimming and the beach, good restaurants. We appreciated the small town and very friendly people. Quite different, not a million beach shops and other tourist trappings. Great fireworks on July 4th and enjoyed the live music. Lisa and Rudy were outstanding owners, responded quickly to email questions prior to our visit, and we knew they really wanted us to have a good time and enjoy their home. They made everything easy upon arrival and departure. I have already recommended Colonial Beach and The Four Seasons Cottage to friends and family.Owner response: Thank you for you feedback and kind comments. We are really glad that you enjoyed your stay at our Four Seasons Cottage. Our cozy cottage is a great retreat for couples and families and we are now advertising for up to five people to accommodate our guests. Lisa and Rudy

We really enjoyed our stay at the four seasons cottage. Everything we needed was there. Our son and grandson stayed with us and loved the beach and walking around the quiet streets. Everyone was very friendly. Our dog, Haley especially loved swimming in the bay. Lisa and Rudy know how to make people feel comfortable. Loved the decor throughtout the home. This vacation has been the very best we have ever had. Thank you for letting us feel at home in your home. Evelyn and Jeff, Braidon and Allen and Haley too!Owner response: We are so glad that you were able to make our Cottage your home away from home and that you were able to relax and enjoy Colonial Beach. Thank you so much for being our guests. Best, Lisa and Rudy

We really enjoyed our trip to Colonial Beach. The cottage is in a GREAT location, you can walk and bike almost everywhere. The owners were very friendly and accommodating and sent us all the information we needed in a very timely manner. The cottage is very, very clean and well maintained. It is small--it can sleep six, but I don't know if I would enjoy being there with five other adults. Since there were only 3 of us and our dog, we were perfectly fine. We loved Seaside Thai and Dockside with the outdoor deck on the water and the bands. We would definitely rent here again when we go back to Colonial Beach.Owner response: Cathy, Thank you for your kind words. This is our 10th season and most of our guests are families and enjoy the town as your family did. I'm glad that you got to bike the town. Please come back and visit again. We love repeat guests.

Thank you for sharing your cottage with us.. My family and I had a GREAT time at your home! We felt so at home, and welcome from the very first step into your place!! There was every thing we could possibly need, and then some! You guys thought of everything!! I am recommending this vacation spot to everyone!! We experienced our first Earthquake at The Lee's plantation and then Hurricane Irene make us cut our vacation short by 1 day. But the 7 nights there were awesome! thank you all so much.Recommended for: Adventure seekers, age 55+, romantic getaway, families with teenagers, families with young children, girls getaway, sightseeing.

The time my girls and I had at the cottage was wonderful and peaceful. The neighbors as well were very sweet. The beachtime every day was so relaxing. We walked to the beach. Watched the boats and we were able to enjoy ourselves. We did not want to leave when it was was time to head back home. I can't wait to go back again. See you soon.Recommended for: Adventure seekers, age 55+, tourists without a car, romantic getaway, families with teenagers, families with young children, girls getaway, sightseeing.
Owner response: Thank you for your lovely review. We know how hard it is to leave after being in the peaceful environment of Colonial Beach. We do have lovely neighbors and they are always so kind to our guests. Please come back again! Lisa and Rudy

We had a wonderful time at the cottage. We found it well provided, very comfortable. For our teens it was great to have their own space/bedroom. We also enjoyed the garden and the bbq a lot. Lots of things to do in Colonial Beach as well: we rented some kayaks, went to Washington, DC, visited Stratford Hall (almost like being in England but for the slave quarters) and of the beach is very close by.Recommended for: Families with teenagers, families with young children.
Owner response: Dear Lijsbeth, Thank you for being our guests and discovering our cottage and all that there is to do around Colonial Beach all the way from the Netherlands. Best regards, Lisa and Rudy

Anything you could think you need i here. We stayed at the cottage 07/16/11 thru 07/23/11 with our 3 sons (2 teens and 1 in college). There is more than enough room for 5 grown people, more than enough kitchen supplies, and more than enough to do. We went to the beach almost every day, and 1 day we made the 2 hour drive to Washington D.C. When you stay here, you have to go to the Lighthouse restaurant, they will sell you FRESH seafod, direct, to take back to the cottage and cook.There is a grill, a deck, and a nice size backyard to play around with the kids. It was a great, relaxing, fun vacation. And, I would definately go back again. Thank you Lisa!!!Recommended for: Age 55+, pet owners, romantic getaway, families with teenagers, families with young children, girls getaway.
Owner response: Thank you so much for being our guests, enjoying the cottage and our big backyard. We are glad that you had great adventures while staying in Colonial Beach. We love the beach also. Best, Lisa and Rudy

The Rudacil's Four Seasons Cottage provided everything I needed for an extended business stay in the Dahlgren-Colonial Beach Area. The commute was the same as back home, about 15 minutes, except without the traffic. All of the necessities were taken care of- the lawn maintenance, and weekly housekeeping, allowing me to concentrate on my work. The Colonial Beach area is small enough for a quick trip for groceries, gas, or a Red Box movie. The internet service and basic cable were enough entertainment. If you are the type who does not need much and enjoys the quiet, laid-back nature of life on the water, then this is the place. I would certainly recommand Four Season's and the Rudacils to anyone needing an extended stay with the comforts of home.Owner response: Dear Tony, We are so glad that we were able to provide a comfortable space for your 40 night stay at our cottage, so that you could just concentrate on being at Dahlgren. We love Colonial Beach also, which allows people to get away from it all. Thank you for selecting us, Rudy and Lisa

Four Seasons cottage & Colonial Beach were a lovely find. It was our first trip to the beach & my girls had talked about "the trip" since Christmas & we were not disappointed at all. We had fun going to the beach, renting a golf cart, going to the playground, shell searching, & getting ice cream. The cottage was our home away from home & charming. It was a great to reconnect & have family time.Recommended for: Tourists without a car, romantic getaway, families with teenagers, families with young children, girls getaway.
Owner response: We are so glad that you enjoyed your stay at our Four Seasons Cottage and Colonial Beach. There are so many different things to do there or just relax and enjoy the beach as your family did. Thanks again for reserving your vacation early. That really allows you to be able to choose the exact week that works for your family. Lisa and Rudy

My husband and I and our dog stayed at Four Season for all most 2 weeks in April 2010. We found the cottage to be very comfortable and clean, and the back yard was a dream for our Jack Russell. The quaint, quiet beach community is charming, with water views at every turn. We felt very much at home and we would return to the Four Seasons Cottage in the future. Our hosts, Lisa and Rudy are very nice people and very accomodating to our needs.Recommended for: Age 55+, tourists without a car, pet owners, romantic getaway, families with young children, girls getaway.
Owner response: Thank you Penny and John. We love having guests like the three of you stay at our cottage. Lisa and Rudy
