Lil’ patch of paradise. Water on three sides, ~800 ft.
Sweet tea and watching corn pop up in rows...we dare you to slow down this much.
Well hello, neighbors! Our cove is a suggested anchor drop on sailing maps.

About this property

Historic Waterfront Farmhouse, Private Beach Access

Amazing *SUNSETS*! Your stay will include the nightly entertainment of basking in the pink and golden hours around sunset time. Come in from the water or beach in time to pour a cocktail and enjoy the show. There is instant vacation relaxation in the glow of the Northern Neck's amazing sunsets from a wide view across Cockrell's Creek. Coastal farmhouse c.1790 looks out to the harbor and daily boat parade to the historic fishing village of Reedville. Enjoy a shaded summer breeze under the ancient magnolia, play games in the yard, spot birds, and roast s'mores at the water's edge; all on 2 private acres.

Sandy launch for on-site five SUP boards (3 adult, 2 child) and two kayaks. Life vests also provided.

Enjoy river life AND beach days with access to a private white sand neighborhood beach just a short walk or drive across the street. Beach is on the Chesapeake Bay and wonderful for a sandy beach day and big water swim without huge waves. During the weekdays almost no one is there. Beach chairs (4) and umbrella provided.

This special home is rooted in Reedville's fishing history but is outfitted for today's living. Explore the region from this comfortable oasis or stay put and relax on one of 3 porches, float, paddle, crab and fish off the dock.

We look at the Omega fishery boats and on occasion we smell the fish processing, typically at night when it happens. It’s all part of Reedville life!

House is on a private point of land and surrounded by water on three sides, 800 ft of water frontage. Amazing water views from every room.

This home is ideal for a large family or 2 families. There is queen bed with private bathroom downstairs and a king bedroom upstairs that shares the hall bath. Kids' wing upstairs includes huge bunk room and hang out space. Sofa downstairs pulls out to queen.

All upholstered furnishings/mattresses/bedding are new as of 2018-2019. House is very clean and updated while still exuding the charm that only older places have.

Are you a boater? Launch your boat at the newly renovated state boat launch, Shell Landing a few hundred yards from the house. Boat to four restaurants and a vineyard or fish the Chesapeake Bay. It's just five minutes from Shell Landing out to the bay or to quaint Reedville (by car or boat). Or, rent a pontoon boat at Smith Point Marina on the Little Wicomoco River.

Best vacation rental ever!

We absolutely loved everything about this rental. It is charming, beautiful, historic, and well appointed to make the stay easy and enjoyable. The views of the sunset, fishing boats, spotter planes, and fish factory smoke stack are breathtaking. They supply kayaks and other fun items for water sports. There is not one single thing I can think of that needs improvement. Every member of my family fell in love with the home and views.

Just what we needed!

Welcomed with a view of the bay, so inviting along with a personalized welcome sign. We were so excited we took a family pic in the kitchen with the bay in the back. Beds were comfortable. Plenty of activities for the family. Might have to Google a little for outside house activities but once you find it’s a lot of fun. Great place to to reconnect with family. Thanks for the stay!!!

Beautiful house and views

The house is beautiful with amazing views! King Bed is very comfortable. Kitchen has everything you need to cook and is spacious. Loved the amount of space for relaxing outside. Grill is great. Lots of outdoor toys that we did not have a chance to use, but we plan to return. Owners were great to work with and timely in response.

Katherine and her husband are the epitome of the most gracious, lovely guests any host could ask for. They dealt with a heating system break they entire time they were there; had to have multiple service providers interrupt their getaway, and pitched in to help troubleshoot and repair.

Great place to stay with family

The property was gorgeous with an incredible waterfront view. We were able to fish, crab, kayak, paddleboard and have a campfire! Host was responsive and provided plenty of paper products and towels. Renovations were beautifully done. Couches and beds were very comfortable. Bunk room was a huge plus for our tweens and teens. If you have young ones or limited mobility, be aware that floors are uneven and steep stairs due to the age of the house. Getting down to the pier would be difficult too, as the embankment is steep and a little slippery. Downstairs bedroom and attached bath was great for the grandparents. Proximity to shops in Reedville and Fleeton was convenient. Internet and phone service really left a lot to be desired. Kitchen was well-stocked and there were plenty of crabbing supplies provided. Although, some were rusted and the lid for the large steaming pot was missing. Really liked the games, puzzles, and outdoor activities provided for the whole family as well. Overall 10/10 would stay here again!

Loved it!

The house is beautiful and the property was amazing! Some of our favorite things included watching the spotter planes taking off and landing, kayaking, sitting on the dock and fishing, swimming in the bay and enjoying morning coffee on the porch. We loved our stay!

Fabulous stay and charming house

The house was clean and well appointed with everything needed for a great stay. The homeowner was kind and responsive. We had a great stay overall! We stayed in the middle of winter, but got to enjoy the fabulous fire pit and even spotted an otter in the river!

Perfect, Beautiful and Fun!

First of all, the house was beautiful. It has all the historic charm, but updated with great design and beautiful wood floors. The view could not be better, and there was so much to do without ever leaving the property. We thoroughly enjoyed the kayaks, paddle boards, the boat dock, crabbing and fishing. We used the grill, outdoor tables for some of the meals, the outdoor seating and two teenage cousins got a lot of use out of the slam ball game. There was also some serious cousin monopoly competition.

Great getaway!

The views and weather were amazing. The house was very well equipped and we thoroughly enjoyed all the outdoor seating options with three different porches, loungers, rocking chairs, picnic table, firepit with adirondacks, hammock and plenty of shade to enjoy the fabulous location. We will be back!
