We loved the tranquility of the place, beautiful views, and the unique design of the house. The host was very responsive. It was a very relaxing stay. I am sure we will be coming back soon.
We the best time enjoying the dock, kayaks and paddle board, the fire pit with s’mores, just being with family and having our pups with us. A fantastic trip for sure!!
We loved the waterfront home where we stayed. The host was incredibly helpful and responsive to any questions we had about the rental and the area. Highly recommend.
We had an amazing stay ,the house is peaceful, clean, and surrounded by nature. Perfect for relaxing and disconnecting from the busy world. We enjoyed kayaking on the river, soaking in the views, and just listening to the sounds of nature.
Amazing and perfect getaway from DC. Had such a relaxing time floating in the river, we can’t wait to come back. Wonderful vacation rental, worth it and more!
Beautiful, pet friendly, waterfront home at the end of a quiet wooded street. Fun on the water! We loved swimming, crabbing and kayaking during the day and playing in the game room at night!
We enjoyed our stay a great deal. The house was clean, comfortable and fun. There is lots to do in the vicinity, but we loved just being at the house: the game room, the dock, the fire pit. We will definitely come back.
This home is so cozy and spacious. The view of the river is absolutely beautiful and gives you a feeling of peace. Located at the end of the road provided a very quiet and tranquil atmosphere. Everything was shiny and clean - very homey! If I am in the area again I will definitely check to see if this home is available for rent.
My hubby and I were able to get away for a weekend and this was a perfect place for us. The river view is breathtaking and the house is well-equipped. The master bed is very comfortable. The basement has games including pac-man!

Fun stay on the water
Chris is an excellent communicator. The property could use some minor work (fence, carpet, etc) we could not swim because of the jellyfish but fishing was great!
Chris and Bobby's property was perfect for my friends and I. There is tons of space, a great fenced in yard, firepit and the dock...boy how the pups loved dock diving. I appreciate Chris' communication and accommodation of our requests. We'll be back for sure!

Beautiful View and Very Peaceful
Stunning view at this well stocked home on the water. Beautiful view from multiple bedrooms. Great chance to teach your kids to crab on the pier. Cute town about 20 minutes away with antiques and coastal shopping. Williamsburg in driving distance. Truly a relaxing week.
We had a lovely stay at Chris's place. The house is generously equipped with anything one can think of, from the kitchen to the game room to the outdoor activities. We canoed, swam, barbecued, watched the sunset over the river. All in all superb and comfortable. Chris is also super responsive, unasked he extended our check-in and check-out by 6 hours each.
Thank you for such a comfortable stay during our first visit to the Northern Neck. We loved the dock, fire pit, and kayaks, and spent as much time by the river as possible. For outings me were blown away by Hughlett Point (very interesting history how it became a preserve) and enjoyed visiting Kilmarnock. Everyone was so friendly. We also appreciated the dog friendly policies for our senior pup to be able to join us.
Thank you for sharing your home! Our family had a relaxing week together on dock and deck and enjoyed kayaking and paddle boarding. We took an afternoon trip to the lovely town of Kilmarnock where we browsed the shops and had the most delicious lobster rolls (Connecticut style) at Small Town Burger on Main Street. One evening we went to Cygnets Restaurant (apx 10-15 minutes) and had an enjoyable, delicious dinner. Wishing you and your family many wonderful memories in your home.
My family of 6 adults and one dog had a lovely stay at Waterside. The house has amazing views out over the river. We were rather unlucky in that the water was full of jellyfish during our entire stay so we were unable to enjoy kayaking, swimming or floating. That said, we were incredibly grateful to get to enjoy the views from the comfort of the air-conditioning in these circumstances! Chris was very responsive to our requests for info during the trip and was proactive in sending tips about local events. We would highly recommend the Irvington Farmer's market, the 4th of July celebration in Kinsale, and the Historic Rice Hotel and Tavern for those exploring the area. Overall, this was a great place to spend a relaxing vacation week!
We had an absolutely amazing and relaxing stay at this riverfront property! From the moment we arrived, everything was perfect. The home was spotless, cozy, and well-appointed with everything we needed for a comfortable getaway. The beds were incredibly comfortable, and waking up to the stunning river view each morning was a dream.The hosts were fantastic—super communicative and helpful leading up to our stay and made check-in a breeze. You can tell they really care about creating a great guest experience.One of the highlights was taking the kayaks out on the river on our last day—it was peaceful, scenic, and the perfect way to wrap up our trip.We also loved relaxing on the deck with a cup of coffee in the morning and enjoying dinner while watching the sunset over the water in the evenings. The location felt private and tranquil, yet still close enough to everything we needed.Highly recommend this spot if you’re looking to unwind, reconnect with nature, and enjoy a beautiful setting with top-notch hospitality. We’d love to return!

INCREDIBLE stay, Everything you need, great views!
My wife and I stayed at Chris and Bobby’s place for a long weekend to get out of the city with our 2 month old + dog. It was exactly what we needed. Cozy, relaxing, quiet and an adventure. The bed was comfortable and the kitchen was well stocked. Do you have a kid? The house comes with everything you might need from dishware to sleeping accommodations to toys and more. Seriously so fun. The fenced in yard was also a treat so we could bring our dog. You can tell Chris and Bobby have put their heart into personalizing the space and making it accessible. We went for walks in the neighborhood and explored the area for good hikes and restaurants. The neighbors are friendly and polite. The dock is beautiful and the view is exquisite. Especially for sunrise and sunset! We can’t wait to tell our friends about this place and go back. :)
The home was clean and well-kept inside. The owner was friendly and responsive, and we loved the privacy and seclusion. The private dock, board games, game room, and decently stocked kitchen were great touches.That said, there were several issues. The outdoor areas need upkeep, messy yard, dirty deck, and the walk to the dock was on very uneven ground, which made it difficult to navigate safely, especially for anyone with mobility concerns. The dock itself had splintering boards, popped nails, and twisting wood. I had to pull splinters from my dog’s paw.During a storm, the power went out. While flashlights were provided, the candles were mostly burnt out. We found tea lights, but better stocking for outages is needed.The listing says every room has a closet, but the master bedroom’s closet is locked. Understandable, but there should at least be a rack or hooks to hang clothes.Also, personal/family photos made it feel less like a rental. The two large portraits in the living room were a bit much. The smaller ones in the entryway were more out of sight, but ideally, no personal photos should be displayed.With more attention to outdoor maintenance, power outage prep, and guest comfort, this could be a great stay.
Location and house was great for our family weekend.

Absolutely perfect; city mouse in the country!
From the large space to the amazing views, the home was perfect. We were so privileged to be able stay at Chris and Bobby’s wonderful home. The house was perfect, the views were amazing, the peace was blissful. (even with three teenage boys) We had a beautiful stay. The boys went fishing off the dock, it was quite comical watching these city boys hooking worms. The fire pit was so wonderful sitting and enjoying the lake and the fire. Chris and Bobby sent us info on the little farmers market which I do believe all of Heathsville showed up for. It had lots of goodies. Of course we supported the local crafters. Chris was so on top of everything. Emails and text were very thorough. The house had everything we needed. And even YES! Plenty of hot water after many showers!!! We will be back. Thank you Chris and Bobby for an amazing weekend! We are all so grateful for being able to share your home.
The view of the river from the house is spectacular. Besides an incredible view, the property met all the important points when staying out of ones home. It was very clean, the hot water was HOT, no stray bugs, a very well stocked kitchen, comfortable beds and tvs from this century in most rooms. The weather sucked so we didn't get to utilize the outdoor space much but we were sure to make it down to the dock to do some fishing. You're really out in the woods so there's tons of nature, like bald eagles and lots of fish. It's a perfect getaway from everyday life. The hosts are very responsive and questions get answered almost immediately.
