Wonderful secluded spot on a beautiful section of the Chickahominy River. Looks to be a great fishing spot with many jumping fish. The dock was inviting and the house spacious and best of all dog friendly.

River house

We loved our stay on the river!! The house was accommodating. Could have used some more pots and pans when cooking for 10 people but other than that we were very happy with our stay!

River Nirvana

This property was a perfect getaway fory family. Close enough to attractions but far enough for privacy and solitude. Great fishing off the dock. The owners were responsive to any issues and questions. We can't wait to book again next year.

Family vacation 2023

House was perfect. Uncle shared first fishing experience with 3 year old niece from the dock and then while boating on the river. Busch Gardens, Winery and swimming. The screened porch was perfect for the little ones to play. We all had a great time.

Relaxing but fun too!

Great for family get away. Didn't get to use hot tub. Fished from dock but no fish. Lots of activity on river...fishing tournament from park and several boat races. It was entertaining.. Beds comfy but needed my feather pillow. Location and proximity to everything was great. Thank you again.

Thank you, Gary! I'm delighted that your family had a great time during your stay. If you have any friends who own boats, our deep water dock is available for overnight stays. The river offers fantastic opportunities for skiing and fishing, and there are several Marina Cafes just a short distance away. We look forward to welcoming you back, and future visits will be discounted by 10%. Our goal at River Nirvana is to encourage repeat visits. Reach out to me with any additional suggestions you may have for the property. Robb

Quiet Riverside Retreat for the 4th of July

We enjoyed the nice quiet location on the Chickahominy that is 30-45 minutes from Busch Gardens parks and the historic Williamsburg/Jamestown/Yorktown areas. We spent most of our time on the new deck and in the new hot tub. The kids had fun fishing from the dock. We appreciated the privacy that you don't get at the local resorts. We didn't get the chance to boat ourselves, but we did see a large amount of boating activity on the river during our stay.

Thanks, Vic, Glad your group enjoyed the home. If you come back, there is a marina across the river that will rent Jon Boats, Canoes, and Pontoon boats by the day. They even pick you up at our dock. Thanks for your business! Robb

A gem on the river!

Our two families enjoyed our stay here in August 2023. 9 of us, aged 6 to 43, had a blast. The pictures don’t do this home justice. The layout is very well thought out - half of the floor is open floor plan common area - living and dining rooms and well equipped kitchen and 1/2 bath. The other half, separated by the door from the common area, are the sleeping quarters. A master suite with a gigantic walk in shower, a bedroom with a queen bed and another “kids” bedroom with twin bunk and a queen bed worked great for us. There is a foldout sofa in the hall of the sleeping area that is good for one person or two smaller kids as well. The walk to the river is relatively easy. There is a private dock and a swing on it is perfect for watching sunsets. The area is very quite with an exception of occasional motor boat passing by. Robb is very easy to get in touch with for any questions you might have! The area around the home is quite but not far from it is “Blue Heron” restaurant with amazing food and terrific cocktails. Overall though bring your own food unless you plan to eat there every meal - not so many other food places around. There are a couple of marinas near by. We enjoyed renting a boat for a day. If you are into biking - Virginia Capital Trail leading to Jamestown is within reasonable driving distance and the ride to Jamestown is largely shaded making it a good day trip even in summer… Overall A+ for the property, customer service and location!

Beautiful Riverfront Home with private dock and hot tub

This was a really nice property. The house was very spacious. Kitchen was big, and dining room had plenty of seating for 10. You can also see the river from the table while eating. There is a big deck with hot tub which all had nice views of the water. The dock was big enough that everyone could hang out down there. Caught plenty of catfish and some bass right off the edge. We did some swimming also, but the only downside was no steps or ladder to get out. So it was hard to get out of the water especially at low tide. It was easy for teens, but young kids or older adults would have a tough time getting in and out. The stairs leading down to the dock were nice with railings, but there are quite a few steps to get up and down, so keep that in mind if you have older people in your group. We also took our black lab and she loved diving and swimming off the dock as well. We rented a pontoon boat from the Riverside camp and Marina which is just across the river. They also brought the boat right to our dock for a small fee so we didn't have to make the 40 minute drive over there. Overall we were very happy with our stay. Cindy was super nice and very helpful with anything that we needed. Her and Rob were very accommodating and communicative. They allowed us to check in a bit early as well since we were coming from far away. We would definitely come back in the future. We had a lot of fun and really enjoyed our stay here. Great place to bring the family for a secluded getaway.
