Beautiful location! Everything we needed was in the house. Plenty of space to spread out as well as lots of options to have a family dinner together. You can’t beat watching the sunsets from the deck!

Our second stay at Bella Vista and we're already thinking about our third! The property is like a mini-resort, and other than going for groceries or a couple of dinners out in Chesapeake City, we spent all our time watching the boats and the beautiful sunsets, swimming in the pool, and relaxing. Gretchen is a gracious and responsive host, and she has stocked the house with everything you need.

This is the third time we have stayed at Bella Vista and it continues to be my family's favorite vacation/reunion venue. The house is perfect for us - plenty of space. The deck over looking the Elk River is perfect for the gorgeous sunsets. And the pool meets everyone's needs. But the host -- Gretchen Koch -- is fantastic. She has thought of everything one could need or want. She makes sure the house is in "move in and start living" condition. She is an extraordinary host. We love Bella Vista.

Dec 2024 Stay at Bellavista
This is the second time we have stayed at Bellavista. This time, however, it was the week between Christmas and New Years and we enjoyed staying at Bellavista just as much if not more than our initial July 2024 visit. Gretchen Koch is a phenomenal host to work with. She makes sure everything is perfect. How she managed to arrange for the stunning sunsets at Bellavista is beyond me. We look forward to staying at Bellavista again this summer.

Fabulous!
We had a relaxing, much-needed vacation at Bella Vista and couldn't have asked for a better location or house. Gretchen was wonderful keeping us informed of local events, but we were happy to just enjoy the house and pool and the amazing views of the river. The house was very well provisioned and included all the basics (and extra stars for the ice maker!). We are looking forward to staying again next summer.

Review of Bella Vista
My family just finished a week in this one of a kind home on the Elk River. The property was everything and more than we expected. The pool kept the little ones busy and the sunsets on the deck kept the grownups happy. We had plenty of room to spread out in this fully equipped gorgeous home. Gretchen Koch was great to work with. There should be a category higher than Premier Host for Gretchen. We hope to return next summer!

Family Getaway
My family and I recently stayed at this beautiful home. It was exactly what I was looking for...a beautiful, large, comfortable home on the water where my husband and I could spend time with our son, daughter-in-law and granddaughters. It was so nice to disconnect from our busy home lives (& devices) and embrace being together. We spent the majority of our time swimming in the beautiful pool, fishing from the dock, relaxing in the hot tub and watching the boats go by. The sunsets were some of the most beautiful we had ever seen. Chesapeake City was a short drive away and we enjoyed visiting some of the quaint shops and had some delicious meals.
The owner, Gretchen, is a lovely person who provided so much information before we even arrived. She met us when we arrived and showed us around. I thought that was so nice, had never had owner/host do that. It was such a personal touch.
Cannot wait till we can return to visit this peace of paradise on the Elk River. Thank you Gretchen 💗

Lovely stay at the Bay
This property was perfect for our 8 person, three generation long weekend away. The home was comfortable with a great layout for gathering and for some pivate space. Even though the weather wasn't the best, we enjoyed the heated pool and spa, we watched the eagles and osprey, we cooked and played games. The host was wonderful and very responsive to all of our questions. Gretchen gave us recommendations for dinner and ice cream nearby. We'll definitely keep this in mind for future vacations!

We stayed at this beautiful home over Thanksgiving and had a wonderful time with our family. The host was incredible and answered all our questions. Everything we needed was there. The fireplace is amazing. The view absolutely great and we loved the dock to walk out on. We will definitely want to come back here.

Beautiful property, great location!
We had the best time staying here! The heated pool is right by the house and right on the water. You can watch the boats go by from the pool! The house was very clean and had the most well stocked kitchen of any rental home I've stayed in. Beautiful well kept interior and landscaping around the property. We didn't have any issues while we were there but the owners were very responsive to questions. We hope to come back next year!

Everything from the amenities, decor, furnishings and landscaping, are EXACTLY as advertised, if not better. Gretchen is easy to reach, professional and courteous. The home is beautiful, comfortable and clean. The grounds and pool are meticulously maintained. The sunsets do not disappoint. Our family of 10 had plenty of space to spread out and enjoy the home and property.

Wedding weekend
We had a wonderful stay at Bella Vista for our son’s wedding weekend in Chesapeake City. The house is very comfortable and accompanied 8 of us nicely with lots of space. We enjoyed all it had to offer especially sitting on the deck by the river all hours of day and night. The spa was so relaxing at night after a busy weekend. Our hosts were wonderful and helpful with suggestions in the area when needed. We would definitely recommend staying here and would like to return for another visit.

Port Herman
The house exceeded our expectations and accurate to the photos online. We had good weather to use all the outdoor amenities especially the spa connected to the pool. Sunsets were amazing. The River room was perfect for morning coffee and relaxing. The men enjoyed watching football games from the comfort of recliners in the spacious living room. Owners were wonderful to work with and checked in regularly in case we had any questions. We are already planning a return visit to Bella Vista.

Extended Family Getaway
Very easy property managers to work with. Very communicative and were good at explaining everything beforehand. We had a lovely week long stay in their very clean, very spacious, very beautifully decorated home. My kids loved the pool! My parents loved the house! My grandma loved the view! Really, we all loved everything! Lots of space outside for kids to play in the yard and a variety of places to have meals indoors & out. (I had my kids eat a majority of their meals outside due to the lovely furnishings inside, but overall the house was very accommodating for our large age range (93 years old to 5 years old!)
Thank you for everything, we can’t wait to return!

Bella Vista a Blessing for All
Every part of the Bella Vista property was beautiful, inside and out! The home, the location, the beds, linens and the amenities were perfect for our family vacation. Everything you could possibly need is provided by Gretchen and Bob. Even though we docked our own boat, having a beautiful pool for the extra hot days was wonderful to have. Even the hot tub got some use at night. The location is lovely too. Serene and having breathtaking views of the Elk River. We visited restaurants by boat to Chesapeake City. You don’t have to have a boat to enjoy this lovely home! Gretchen and Bob were wonderful to work with. They take great pride in providing a clear and orderly home. It was a pleasure to work with them. Couldn’t have asked for a more perfect vacation on the waters of the Chesapeake Bay with my growing family. Hope to be back next summer!

River View House
The view was spectacular. Looking out at the river was very relaxing. Using the kayak was enjoyable. Once the heater was turned on all of us were able to utilize it. The house had all of the supplies we could need. Which was a huge convenience. The owner was easily accessible. Would definitely recommend this beautiful home.

Beautiful home
Beautiful clean property, had a wonderful week. A few maintenance problems, but owners were quick to respond to. The listing advertises “bring your boat,” However, the homeowners notified us a day or so before our vacation that the boat or trailer were not allowed on their property. The marinas the owner recommended were private and we couldn’t use them. Checking in with this last minute information put a wrench in our day. One of the neighbors let us park the trailer on his property, which was very nice of him. We really lucked out, but given this information earlier would have helped us plan better. Other than that the home and pool is beautiful, plenty of room, well stocked kitchen.
