About the host

Hosted by Betsy Cox

Host profile image
I'm both a realtor and filmmaker, my husband Scott is a US history teacher and we live in Charlottesville, Virginia. We have two sons, one of whom works at Pippin Hill Winery and the other who teaches middle school science. Our exuberant and amazingly friendly goldendoodle Harpo and our black ninja cat Moji round out the family. We love the outdoors and live in the foothills of the Shenandoah Mountains - but our hearts are happiest at the river.

We are experienced hosts, having offered an apartment in our primary home through AirBnb for five years. We pride ourselves on 5 star reviews, and you can rest assured that we are dedicated to making your stay amazing. We will always be just a phone call or text away!

Why they chose this property

I started coming to the Piankatank River when I was three years old, and it's home in so many ways. Scott and I were married here and raised our two boys fishing, crabbing and swimming in its waters. With the sale of my parents' river home in 2020, Scott and I bought this charming house and we are thrilled to continue making memories on this most beautiful of rivers. We'd love to share all the joys of river life with you.

What makes this property unique

The property is river front. It is an intimate experience with the water on the river side of the house. The dock is gorgeous with stairs leading down to the river for wading or launching of our two kayaks and paddle board, and beautiful views of both the sunrise AND sunset. We have a terrific fire pit, great waterside deck, gas grill, wood burning fireplace, lawn games, crab pots, life jackets, and even a large floating swim mat - you really just need to bring yourselves!
