About this property
Beach House on Chesapeake Bay!
Bring your boat!
New 3 bedroom, 2 bath rental property on the Chesapeake Bay, VA and only 1 hour drive from Richmond and 2 hours from Charlottesville!
Professionally managed luxury residence on 7+ private acres with water access on both sides, boasting a private white sand beach and panoramic water views. Over 1,000 feet of boardwalk spanning the property with a brand new pier out over the water for swimming, fishing/crabbing, and boating!
The three bedroom home has an open concept kitchen/LR/DR with exceptional water views overlooking Milford Haven and the Chesapeake Bay.
Well appointed to host up to 8 guests, with 3 bedrooms consisting of one King, two Queens, and a twin over full bunk and two full bathrooms as well as a brand new cedar outdoor shower. Premium shampoo, conditioner, and face/body wash included.
Every attention to detail has been made to outfit the kitchen for the gourmet chef with professional quality cutlery and cookware. Additionally, there is a 5 burner gas grill for barbeques and a large firepit for cooking crab pots or just making smores.
The water surrounding the property is very warm and shallow with white sand underfoot and usually very calm - great for StandUp Paddleboarding, kayaking, or just lounging in it with the kids. Guests can arrange for SUPs and kayaks to be delivered to the home.
Featuring two newly built piers that span the property with decks at each end, there are plenty of areas to sit and relax by the water where you will occasionally spot pods of Bottlenose dolphins swim past. The area has incredible fishing for Striper, Spot, Spotted Trout, and Croaker as well as plenty of Blue crab and local oysters literally in the backyard.
Seafood lovers don't have to worry about catching their own, however, as there is a local fishmonger who sells everything you could want from his curbside trailer in downtown Mathews (5 miles away). Also in Mathews, you will find a Food Lion supermarket and a variety of restaurants and dining options ranging from casual like the pizza at Southwind to fine dining at the White Dog Bistro.
The home is equipped with a medical grade air purifier, WiFi broadband internet with exceptionally fast speed(400 mbps) for streaming and video conferencing as well as dedicated work space (desk) in the 2nd bedroom, and a brand new water system with a reverse osmosis drinking water tap.
Only a short 45 minute drive to Busch Gardens, Water Country, and downtown Williamsburg and an hour from Jamestown.
If you are looking for a peaceful, quiet and relaxing vacation on the water, look no further! This place is private and serenity abounds.

We have been renting through vrbo for over 20yrs. We have stayed all over the US. This is one of the nicest locations, fully stocked and great communication. Highly recommend.
The property is amazing. Spent our days on the water/pier and our nights around the bonfire. Caught plenty of fish and blue crabs. Wish we could have stayed longer.
The accommodations are lovely and very comfortable at this rental. There’s everything imaginable you might need for an stress-free stay. Communication with the owner was easy and very timely. My only complaint is the “private white sandy beach” description is a bit of a stretch, which, in all fairness, may simply be the doings of Mother Nature. Overall, a great stay at this lovely location.
We originally planned to be fishing all week, but with the passing nor’easter and high tides, fishing wasn’t great. The home was so comfortable and so beautiful though and we enjoyed all our time together! The views from the docks are stunning! We can’t wait to go back again, hoping the weather will work in our favor next time!! Thank you for sharing your beautiful home!!
The property was better than advertised. It was beautiful, clean, very well-appointed, and serene. We wanted for nothing and we loved every minute. This is a lovely location for a quiet getaway and we would happily do it again.
Stunning views and immaculate house. Host was very accommodating and responsive, house was well stocked and clean. Views are unbelievable! Would recommend to anyone planning a trip to Mathews stay at this house. We hope to return in the future!
This was our second time at this home. We love the access to water and the sandy bottom for our kids to play in. The house was clean and well appointed. Crabbing and fishing were excellent. Don’t hesitate to book this one!
Wonderful property in a beautiful setting. We hugely enjoyed our stay.

Toby,
Thank you for the nice review. Please come back when it is warmer so you can enjoy the water, wildlife, fire pit, and outdoor shower. I am replacing my last section of pier this spring so guests will have even more access to the water to swim, fish, and crab.
Mike
Mike was very responsive and the house is very nice. Location was quite and was a true getaway from day to day grind.

Eric,
I apologize that the pier out over water was not operational during your stay. As I stated to you back in JAN, I have been trying to get it replaced since last fall and the pandemic has set my contractors back significantly.
Mike
We had a great vacation. My boys particularly enjoy crabbing in the Marsh!

Catherine,
The highest compliment we can receive is a repeat visit. Thank you! I am replacing my pier this spring and so you will have even more access to the water during your next stay with us.
Mike
We spent an early Thanksgiving here at Mike's beautiful home. Probably one of the most well equipped vacation homes we have ever visited. The setting is incredibly beautiful, private yet close to shopping and restaurants.
definitely will be coming back.
