Dear Meg, Thank you for your nice review. We are delighted that the week was a good one for you, John, and Paul and happy to hear that John enjoyed his time fishing. It sounds like you visited many of the sites on your "to do" list and still found time to sit, relax, read, and watch the rhyme of the ferries. Thank you for the nice condition of the cottage when you left. We hope everyone is well and that you are enjoying the summer. We would love for you to visit again when you can. Deena

Thank you, Melissa, for your review. We are glad that your family enjoyed the cottage, the outdoor beach fun, the historic sites, and your the trip to Virginia's Historic area. Thank you for your interest in our cottage. It is great to see families having fun. Deena

Dear Katara, I am so happy to hear that all was well with your stay and that you found some relaxation. It is nice when everybody checks out of their phones and tablets and laptops. We appreciate your good humor and your children’s braveness re the geese. We all need to buy stock in Koolaide if the purple stuff works! And thank you for leaving the cottage in good order. Deena

Thank you for your comprehensive review. We are glad that you enjoyed the cottage and the area and hope to see you again. Deena

Rust, from Maryland, is not truthful - a trait at which he truly excels. He sent me a text upon arrival that "Your cottage is adorable." But then…... he did not want to follow the House Rules. There are too many untrue statements in his review to address them all. In fact, they are pretty much all untrue. Regarding the beach, our two trusted helpers spent 8 hours (a total of 16 person hours) cleaning the beach and lawn area the day of Rust's arrival. So …...another untruthful statement! I have the bill and photos to prove what the beach looked like. . The listing clearly notes the size as 720 sq ft., and the ferry location is clearly visible in the photos and is, in fact, an amenity that we highlight. Everyone loves the ferries. There is little noise, and you do not hear any noise at night when in the cottage with new Pella windows closed as they were in March and always are in the Virginia weather. Perhaps reading would have helped Rust. It was after he refused to follow the House Rules regarding parking, and he and his wife were quite rude to our caretaker when she advised them, nicely, that he needed to move his vehicle off of my neighbor's yard, that he became unhappy and belligerent. He actually parked in my neighbor's yard to try to run an electrical cord to plug in his vehicle - he knew what he was doing and thought we would not see what he had done!!! When he was told that he needed to move his vehicle from the neighbor's yard, he moved it to the lawn/grass on the septic drain field in my yard which is clearly not acceptable under any condition as noted in the Rental Policies/House Rules. He had a designated gravel parking space. I sent him a note advising that if he did not follow the House Rules and move his vehicle from the lawn (a second parking issue) to the designated gravel parking spot in the driveway, as clearly stated in the VRBO web site House Rules, he could depart immediately. He then started to threaten a bad review and proceeded to make up complaints. Eventually, there is always one problem renter. And yes, it is a river and there are snakes once in a while, and I feel it is always best to be prepared rather than not. So, if he could not handle a shovel, if needed, to kill a snake, he was clearly in the wrong place. He should have thanked me for the advise and the shovel. Perhaps Rust should read more carefully, look at the photos, and follow the house rules that are provided. Who parks on the grass/lawn? Just read and follow the rules, Rust. I reported him to VRBO immediately. is this how people from MD behave? And……..being truthful is always a nice trait, one that he does not exhibit. And threatening is never advised. We do not suffer fools kindly - anymore. He certainly did not set a good example for his two children which is, perhaps, the most unfortunate. They will learn that not telling the truth (aka lying) is ok!! So wrong on so many counts.

Dear Cathy, Thank you for your very nice review. We are happy to hear that you found the cottage comfortable and the area interesting. It sounds like you and your children visited many places in the area. It's nice to hear that you explored both Chippokes Plantation State Park and Smithfield. Both are delightful. And finally, thank you for the very nice condition of the cottage when you left. We appreciate your care and attention to the house rules. Deena

Dear Michael, Thank you for your nice review. I’m glad you found that the proximity to the beach and water worked well for you and your children. Yes, i’ve listened to the ferries for over 70 years and love watching them come and go. One of my favorite things is watching the ferry lights at night as they glide back and forth across the river. Magical! It is amazing how quiet they are. Thank you also for the nice condition of the cottage when you left. We appreciate your consideration. Deena

Dear Brynn, Thank you for your review and the nice way you left the cottage. We were impressed! It is nice to hear that children enjoy the cottage and love watching the ferries. Everyone loves the ferries. I am glad that you enjoyed the location and the easy access to the many historic sites. You easily received a 5 star rating from us.
