Look no further THIS is the place to book

I really don’t know where to start it was great from beginning to end! Ricky was a 10/10 host everything you may need he was there to accommodate. Easy communication, friendly it almost felt like staying with a family member. The stay and the pool is beyond beautiful the pictures really don’t give it justice it’s a really massive backyard! We had a pool party for brother who got out of the army and it was enough space to fit everyone. I’m telling you now to look no further THIS stay is the place to book. I will be booking again soon

"In paradise!"

This property was just was what needed to entertain my family of 10. The 18 over crowd felt like they were in paradise. The pool house and pool were just top notch. After a busy day with USMC, the quiet ride through the parks was such a relief from the noise of Quantico. It was quiet, AC was great and just a wonderful place for all!

Wish we could have stayed longer

It was still very nice but there were way more bugs this year than the last year the tiki torches did not have fuel and the grill tanks were empty. The pool and hot tub were nice but the stereo and lights outside didn’t work like the previous year-

Amazing pool and amenities

If your looking for relaxation and fun this rental is for you. The backyard is well equipped the pool has lights and waterfalls , covered tiki area with a refrigerator , smart TV's outside , Bluetooth speakers outside to enjoy tunes while having fun in the backyard. Also it's a fire pit in the backyard to enjoy during your stay. The pool house is nicely decorated and intimate , the kitchen has really nice grade appliances also the bed was very comfortable. (You will also have a beautiful view of the water from the property we didn't make it to the beach) This was a perfect stay for my family everyone is looking forward to returning in near future. Do yourself a favor and book your stay. One important detail the host of the property Ricky was a great guy with welcoming my family from the moment we arrived it's a detailed binder on the island that covers how to operate everything inside and outside which is extremely nice and helpful.

This place is convenient for older people

On the property description, it says that parties are welcome. However, according to the policy; the hosts want all guests to leave the property by 9:00pm except for the people sleeping in the property (max 5 people). I don’t know what kind of party you can have if it is required for all guests to exit the premises by 9:pm sharp. The drive itself is long and very roads are very narrow. This could be risky for people to drive back and forth; and letting everyone leave at 9pm is too risky. Also, there is $100 per day fee if you wish to have the pool and hot tub to be private. Any additional guests you invite other than the 5 people sleeping have to pay $10 fee. Overall, in my opinion, there are too many unnecessary additional fees and payments that need to be done outside the reservation payment if you really want to enjoy your stay. Owners live in the property, which makes it easy to communicate. They hosted us well during our check in. It’s nearly impossible for any young adult to throw any type of party/kickback with all these restrictions and payments that are not so clear when booking the property. I like the facilities ( hot tub, pool), but generally you need to be aware that you may be spending more than expected. I had to go elsewhere to celebrate my grad celebration due to following the owner’s house rules, and not risk anything. I only used the hot tub for an hour and that was it. Just be aware that is all. But you’ll enjoy your stay if you just go for the hot tub and pool without a big group, which may create complications in fees. I personally would not refer this place to anyone in my family member nor friends! It is such a rip off!!

In Virginia for my son’s Marine Corps graduation

The property was very close to base. This made it very easy for my son to meet up With my sister, daughter, & myself. We did a lot of sight seeing, otherwise we would’ve enjoyed HB s as aging out by the pool. The property is amazing, rural feeling, and very relaxing, my family really enjoyed staying there.
