Christmas present
This was my family's Christmas present to me, too spend a weekend away together. It was great spending time together on the lake, at the river, in the hot tub or inside playing games, watching movies, playing ping pong. There were things to do no matter the weather! And the layout of the house was great for hanging out together. All 10 of us could hang out in there dining room, living room or in the basement. Thanks for allowing us to use your space!

Love at First Stay
Let’s start with the hosts… I’ve stayed at many rental properties over the years and the hosts are the most responsive and helpful that I’ve had yet. They’ll answer any questions and quickly address any unexpected situations very quickly in the best way.
As for the property… WOW! The perfect getaway retreat with private community beaches, access directly to the lake for kayaking, and a home that comfortably housed a family of 9.
The surrounding area is also gorgeous. Although we preferred to stay close to the serene house, We ventured into Colonial Beach for amazing food at the local Cantina and Eugene’s along the beautiful marina. Do not hesitate to stay here

Great house, lake water level really low
Nice property well kept and good communication with the owners. However, the water level at the lake is own about 6 feet. So, there's a ladder going about 6 feet down from the original dock down to a floating dock. We didn't use any of the water crafts, i.e. kayaks, canoes, because we were thinking we couldn't hand them up from the floating dock 6 feet to the original dock. There is a boat ramp that has been extended to the edge of the lake and it has a locked chain hanging that blocks blocks the use of the ramp. The owners don't have a key for the lock. We were able to get a key from one of the other property owners so we could easily launch our canoe that we had rigged for fishing, The fishing is great!

Nice lake vacation stay
The kayaks and paddle board provided fun for our family on the water, and the thoughtful equipment offered (life vests of all sizes, fishing gear, sand toys) made our time easier to enjoy. The few issues with the outside areas were addressed in quick response by the owner. Great communication!

2nd stay, still in love!
We stayed at the Golden Crane for the second year in a row. I loved it just as much this time. Our favorite part is all the water toys. We went with some friends and we had five kids with us from the ages 3 to 9. As before, there were life jackets that fit everyone, single and double person kayaks, a canoe, and stand-up paddle boards. Everyone had a blast on the lake. We enjoyed the dock and the lake beach. My kids loved finding shark teeth and whale bones at the close by shark tooth Beach. We also had a nice time at the brewery nearby. I love this house, the only downer to it is that it's not mine! We're now talking about getting a outdoor shower and hot tub at our house. It has everything we needed. I always feel right at home. I accidentally broke one of the hammocks and instead of being upset Rebecca immediately sent a new one. I also left an entire bag of shoes behind. We happened to have some friends vacationing the next weekend in Carolina Beach and Rebecca was driving back up from Montrose. She went probably 30 minutes out of her way to drop off the bag of shoe to my friend. She really goes above and beyond to be a wonderful hostess. We are sure to come back again next year! Thanks for sharing you home and being so sweet, Rebecca!

Great family spot!
We stayed at this property with our extended family- grandparents, cousins, siblings! We loved using the kayaks, going to Shark Tooth Beach, and having meals together at the big table. The ping pong table, foosball, and movie screen downstairs were great when we had downtime at home.

Our relaxing lake house stay
We enjoyed our stay at the lake house. The host was very kind and we had great communications with her. The kids enjoyed playing in the basement with the included activities. The dock is a short walk from the house and we used a few of the provided kayaks and canoe, and swam in the lake. We visited the private beach, Shark Tooth Beach, and enjoyed our afternoon with a picnic lunch, swimming, and looking for shark teeth. I would recommend wearing water shoes as a few of the kids cut their foot on barnacles. We also visited Colonial Beach for a playground and lunch at High Tides on the Potomac. It was a nice little town and there are beaches to swim at. There was more to see and do but we were there to relax and so we did!

Heaven for families!
We loved this trip so much! I am already looking at the calendar to plan our next trip back. We've taken some really great vacations all around Virginia. My kids are little so we don't like to travel very far. This one was the best vacation yet. So much that the other day My son told me he would rather save up for another vacation than buy toys! But back to the place... It was super clean, it had every single thing that we needed, the location was amazing, and there was so much to do! There were toys for the kids, they also loved the giant bean bag in the basement that they hung out on when watching some kid shows on the big screen. The foosball table was great and so is the ping pong. My kids loved the little attic area that they could go up it, the bucket with the string to take things up and down was fun for hours. I enjoyed the porch, the hot tub and the outside shower. I love to that there wasn't a TV in the main room, we played games and hung out and talked. There were lots of games and interesting books. I really could have stayed here for a month! I actually laid in the hammock and read a book. I haven't relaxed like that in a long time, but my kids were so distracted by all the fun new things that I actually got a break :-) I haven't even mentioned the best things yet, the lake and beach! The lake was far enough away from the house that I wasn't worried about my kids just walking out into the water but close enough that it was an easy walk down. The kayaks, canoe and' stand up paddle boards were all in great condition and easy to use even for novices. They really had every single size life jacket you could need. The water was amazing. They even had a perfect floatie for my two year old. The kids literally had the time of their lives. The shark tooth beach was maybe a three minute drive, I spent three hours there with my boys and they found some amazing shark teeth. They felt like explorers and adventures and it will be a memory that they keep forever. I can say with 100% honesty that this was some of the best money I've ever spent. Part of me doesn't want to leave this review because I don't want it to always be booked! (I would literally try to buy this property if it were for sale) But I also want to share this magic with other families. Thank you so much Rebecca!

Amazing House and property!
This was an amazing place to stay. It’s so perfectly on a perfect part of the water. So many things to do in such a small amount of time, so we would definitely be coming back again. The house is very nice and just perfect for our family. I will definitely recommend this place to anyone. Thank you so much for all of your assistance and for always responding so quickly! 5 stars!!!

Loved every minute!
We absolutely LOVED our stay at the Golden Crane. The house was so cozy and charming! Kitchen had everything we needed, the upstairs living room was very clean and inviting. The kids loved the games and theater in the basement, though they didn’t actually spend much time indoors using it.
The highlight of our stay was definitely the lake! We would enjoy the community lake beach in the morning (best place for toddlers), come back for lunch and the kids would spend the rest of the day in the lake at the house, jumping off the dock and floating platform, floating in tubes, or taking the kayaks out.
We weren’t all that impressed with Shark Tooth beach as there was just a ton of jellyfish, but Hidden Beach was a true treasure (not suitable for young kids) and even found a few shark teeth!
This is definitely the vacation house for you if you are looking to relax and don’t need any attractions. There is very little in the immediate area to do, and that was perfect for us! We did take a trip over to Westmoreland State Park where we were able to check off “see a bald Eagle” on our vacation bucket list. We went early and basically had Fossil Beach to ourselves. We had dinner out the last night and drove up to Colonial Beach to eat at the Tiki Bar. So fun! The kids loved that they could swim while they waited for their meal!
We ended each day around the fire pit!
Thank you Mike and Rebecca for opening your home for others to enjoy! We made lots of wonderful memories!

We loved our time at the Golden Crane. The community amenities were lots of fun and the house itself was a great place to relax together as a family. Rebecca was quick to respond to any questions or concerns and did a great job keeping us updated when heavy rains knocked out the power temporarily. Our family, ages infant through retiree had a blast.

5 star reunion
Our group of three childhood friends plus our kiddos ranging in ages 3-13 had a fantastic weekend reunion at golden crane. Our only regret was not making it a three day weekend! The house was nice than we expected and plenty of space for us all including a large table for us all to enjoy meals together. We loved all of the amenities- the fire pit, hammocks, boats, movie area, floating dock, life jackets and made the most of the areas around us. The pool was closed for COVID but it didn’t matter because so much other great activities to do. We would definitely go back again.

This is definitely a real gem! Rebecca was a pleasure to interact with. She provided lots of information and pro tips. She thought of so many wonderful details to make their Montross Retreat like a home away from home! My kids enjoyed everything this house and neighboring area has to offer. We plan to come back in other seasons to enjoy the color changes, lake view, and hot tub! Thank you Mike and Rebecca!

Pretty nice
This was one of the nicer properties in the area when we were looking for a place for a low-key bachelorette party. The overall house was nice, beds were very comfy, and the lake/backyard was amazing! Overall we enjoyed our stay, however there were a few things that made it less enjoyable:
1. There was about 3 paper towels left on the roll, and no extras in site so we had to make a trip all the way out to the grocery store just to get paper towels, which was very annoying.
2. The basement had a weird smell to it and so we didn't end up spending any time there which was a little annoying because that's where the projector/tv.

Amazing little getaway
My family and I had a wonderful time at this charming lake house. Plenty of water activities for everyone and a great little area of Virginia, Fossil Beach was a big hit as well as Let'em Eat Cake Bakery just down the road. Cupcakes and Baklava were a big hit. In town there is a wonderful Pizza and seafood restaurant Angelo's Pizza Co. The Crab cakes were top notch:) Highly recommend this great little getaway:)

Peaceful Place for Family Fun
The house is lovely, and the decor is fabulous. There is a private dock with watercrafts such as kayaks and paddleboards and a canoe. Life vests available for all ages and sizes. The lake is soooo quiet and peaceful. Two small private beaches are just a couple minutes away from home. A fabulous theater room with ping pong and game table perfect for our two teenagers to have some space. Beautiful views from the enormous windows and decks. Lots of towels. We were a party of 6 (with a baby) and the house was the perfect size for us. Fossils and shark teeth are easy to find and there is an awesome State Park with several sections of beaches, a pool, hiking and other activities, which is only about 10-15 minutes away. This is a quiet area. There were a few Restaurants in nearby Montross and more selections less than 1/2 hour at Colonial Beach. We actually ate in most nights followed by campfire or board games.

Great Lake House for Extended Family
Perfect spot for enjoying Lake Independence and the Potomac. The property has a private lake dock for swimming and for launching a large variety of provided watercraft: canoe, kayaks, SUP, paddle boards. We could easily take advantage of the private community's shark tooth beach on the Potomac, a private lake beach with floating platform for diving and jumping, and a community pool.
The dining room was large enough for an extended family group. The kitchen was well equipped with cooking and eating utensils. The 3 bedrooms, including a bunk room, plus the loft and basement theater room presented many options for sleeping.
There are several choices for crabbing in season as well as a restaurant where you can purchase cooked crabs at reasonable prices.
The owner was responsive to emails.

Lovely family getaway
We had a lovely time enjoying this well-appointed home in a quiet neighborhood away from it all! We had the lake to ourselves, since it was spring break and still on the cool side, but had fun exploring with the kayaks and our bikes (which we brought along). The lake was surprisingly warm for mid-April, which was a great surprise and even let me get a bit of swimming in! Plenty of quiet beaches, trails, and more to explore nearby, and the kids also appreciated the Netflix and TV's!

We are a family of six living out our dreams in the Northern Neck of Virginia! We love how friendly everyone is and love all the wildlife! Our favorite thing to do is paddle out on the lake and have a flotilla!
この宿泊施設のオーナーになった理由
We rented a house in the neighborhood and six months later we were home owners ourselves! Be careful renting here you just might buy a house by the end of the trip!
この宿泊施設の特徴
There is nothing like sitting on the deck or dock and watching bald eagles and osprey soar above or finding shark teeth on the beaches!
