After a day of exploring, come back to an open kitchen-living area where everyone can be together. Snuggle up in the main level Twin Room or grab a story to read before bed in the main level Bunk Room. Nightlights will guide your way to the full bathroom next door.
Upstairs, close the shutters in one of the large en suites, sink into the king hybrid mattress, and rest your mind & body. Not a late sleeper? Grab some coffee or tea outside your suite and take a seat for a breathtaking sunrise. Enjoy books, puzzles, and games all while you soak up the 180˚ views of the James.
Ready for more adventure? Take a kayak down to the private community access and paddle around in the same waters early settlers took to Jamestown. Come back, light up the grill, and dine al fresco. After dinner you can set up for a few games of cornhole and then close the night with a fire, enjoying the sounds of the gentle river waves collapsing on the shore below.

Why they chose this property
Surry, although remote and quiet, provides a front row seat to the views early settlers had as they sailed up the river into what became Jamestown. You will find eagles and osprey soaring through the trees, ships and ferries coming and going, and - if you're an early riser, breathtaking sunrises. Nearby you'll find the historical Smith's Fort Plantation and the public marina is just a short 5 minute drive from the house.
