About the host

My "happy" place is with my face in the sun / my feet in the sand or my butt in a boat : ). My family and I consider The Rivah House, a home and not just a destination. We have formed life long friendships with our neighbors and built albums worth of memories with family and friends. Our hope for our guests, is that you too, will be taken by the magic of the Northern Neck. And that for you, this beautiful place becomes more than just a destination . I promise you it will. Enjoy !

Why they chose this property

I discovered the Northern Neck when my family and I were visiting, the weekend home of my business partner and best friend in 2007. His "rivah" home happens to be walking distance from my home, The Rivah House. And believe it or not, my best friend from high school, who I had not seen in over 25 years, owns the house just 2 doors away. Since I bought the home in 2009, my family and friends have celebrated birthdays / holidays / graduations / weddings and anniversaries here. My children have made friends that they now consider family. They have been fishing since toddlers and could pilot a boat or jetski by the time they were 8. My vision for having a home here on the Neck, was simply that, I wanted my children to have an opportunity to experience and do things, that otherwise, they would not have had the opportunity to do. But most of all, i wanted them to experience a place where neighbors watch out for one another , and where you can walk or drive down our street or Main St where everyone pauses to wave or says hello. So, when you are here, and out and about, don't forget to pause, and smile and say hello, Its what we do : )
