Even better than the pictures

The house was great, really liked how there were towels, beds made, shampoo, conditioner and body wash ready to go. The house had a great layout and really enjoyed the outdoor table and chairs, hammock and swings. Plenty of things to do but ended up relaxing and taking in the beautiful view most of the time. We can’t wait to visit again.

We had such a good time here! It was quiet and so relaxing. We made good use of the paddle board and kayaks. The water was warm and easily accessible which was great! The house was beautiful and well stocked and Abbie was so kind checking in with us to see if everything was going good or if there was anything we needed. Honestly out of all the times we rented I never had another host reach out to us like she did. Our older group of kids had no problem finding things to keep them busy inside and out. We even made use of the pass that was left to use, visiting Westmoreland State Park. Everyone has already asked so I’m sure we will be going back again! Thank you so much Abby for sharing your home and kindness.

Holiday getaway

We came for R & R and we got it! Abbie was a great and responsive hostess and the house was perfect. Even though the weather was cold the views were still great, the layout was perfect and the furniture, especially the beds, was so comfortable. Getting groceries from the Food Lion was easy too. We're not big on water sports so unlikely we would come back in the summer, but maybe another visit in the spring or fall. Highly recommend!

Another awesome stay at Easthaven!

A group of friends and I had a great few days at this relaxing get away. We ate out sometimes and ate in other times. It’s so nice to come to a place that is already set up for you! We didn’t need to worry about sheets and towels or cooking ingredients/appliances. We could just settle in and enjoy the river! There was enough room for every one to be together, or not! It was really fun to tackle the treasure hunt game! We solved the puzzle the second time around! This visit we made a quick trip to the Enchanted Forest. We even met Tom, the tree carver. He was so friendly and informative! We also ate at N and N Burgers and Angelo’s. Both places are highly recommended! We are all looking forward to hopefully being able to return next year!

Serine Setting, Beautiful View

Easthaven is a clean, comfortable, updated waterfront location that was the foundation of our trip - in that we were able to build memories with our family in and around Northern Neck with ease. We visited over Thanksgiving with our two families. Coffee, cocktails and meals were enjoyed with the scenic ever changing backdrop of the Nomini, as it flows into the Potomac. I enjoyed watching birds and boats navigating their way as leaves fell during the end of autumn. I noted that the owners have great pride in the property. It showed in both the little and big things. Fresh paint, new floors and furniture as well as thoughtful, game-derived decorations made the place feel special. (Warning: We had an epic two day monopoly game that involved collaboration, hijinks, and raucous laughter.) Outside - the waterfront is awesome. They have a sturdy pier with all sorts of water toys. But we chose to explore nearby sights. -I picked up fresh fish (trout) to grill at O'Bier Seafood -We visited Stratford Hall (general Lee's home) and hiked the trails -Enjoyed beers at two breweries (Old Rappahannock Brewing Company & Northern Neck Brewing Company) Being an outsider from Denver, I was blown away by the friendly and welcoming vibe from everyone we came in contact with around Northern Neck. Easthaven felt like a home away from home. It made us feel like locals, and was a perfect place to explore the area and connect with our family. We all highly recommend.

A Fun Girls Getaway Weekend!

I recently stayed at this wonderful waterfront rental for a girl's trip weekend. From the moment we walked in, we were blown away by the unique décor—everything was board game-themed! The creative concept added such a fun and playful vibe to the entire house, and it made our stay even more memorable. The hosts have obviously thought about the finer details to help guests settle in. The kitchen was well-stocked, with QR codes thoughtfully placed to help use appliances. The beds and pillows were comfortable, and the towels were plentiful (and huge!). The house is well situated on the water, and we spent mornings and evenings enjoying the scenery. There were plenty of water toys and activities to keep everyone entertained, including kayaks and a pedal boat. The location is also great, with fun activities nearby like wineries and scenic hikes. Overall, it was a fantastic stay, and I would highly recommend this property to anyone looking for a fun and relaxing getaway!

This house had been a dream of ours for a long time. We are from the DC area, have two young kids, a menagerie of animals and wanted a place within an easy drive of DC on the water where we, and our friends, can come to get out of the hustle. The second we drove into Montross, we instantly fell in love with it. It's oozing with charm, super friendly people and really fun things to do! We think the Northern Neck is the best kept secret in the area. We’ve done a lot of work to try to make it the best experience possible for you and yours. Please reach out to us if you need anything at all and we hope you have a wonderful stay!

Why they chose this property

THE VIEWS! We were immediately sold on the house as soon as we looked outside. Easthaven also has anything and everything you could need to provide a wonderful vacation.

For those looking for a greener option we have also just installed solar.
