This was our second time staying at the James River House. We had been looking forward to our trip all year and it did not disappoint! The perfect place to get away from it all, enjoy the beauty of nature and reconnect with each other. Our 13 and 15 year olds loved swimming, fishing, looking for shells, fossils, and shark teeth. We spent so much time on the water, and even had the opportunity to see a large group of dolphins swim by us, while we were in the water! We even love taking trips on the ferry to check out other areas. The renovations to the house this year are gorgeous, it felt like staying in a resort in the middle of the woods! We recommend the James River house for any family looking for a relaxing time in a beautiful setting and unplugging from everything for a bit:)
