Williamsburg ligger 4 miles rakt ner Jamestown Road (cirka 5 min.), Och det tar fÀrre Àn 15 minuter att komma till Busch Gardens.

James River Àr en tidvattenflod och Àr ren och grund nÀra stranden. Tidvattnet kommer in och gÄr mycket lÄngsamt var 12: e timme, sÄ det Àr bra för barn att leka in. Vi ligger nÀra saltvattnet i Chesapeake Bay, sÄ vattnet i James River Àr "brackigt" vatten - delvis salt och delvis sötvatten. Det finns inga maneter i James-floden sÄ att simma eller spela eller bara flyta runt pÄ en uppblÄsbar Àr kul utan stick av maneter.

VÄra tvÄ James River Cottages ger en sÀllsynt instÀllning för semester hyra stugor i den koloniala Williamsburg. Det finns bara fem stugor pÄ stranden som finns pÄ James River verkligen nÀra Colonial Williamsburg för korttidsuthyrning. Var noga med att placera nÄgon strandstuga pÄ James River, eftersom de Àr mycket lÀngre bort frÄn de stora historiska platserna.

VÄr stuga ligger vid den historiska Jamestown-Skottland Ferry som Àr en fri bil fÀrja som ger en hÀrlig 15 minuters resa över floden dÀr det bryggor vid Jamestown Settlement. Med observation dÀck och hÀrlig utsikt, alla Àlskar fÀrjorna - sÀrskilt barn som kan mata mÄsarna brödet bort av baksidan av bÄten.

I absolutely loved this little cottage and can’t wait to visit again!! It had everything we needed and more. Loved the small private beach and watching the ferry crossing the James River. Spent time in Smithfield, which I want to do again and spent a day across the river visiting Williamsburg. I also got in a little fishing! The owner was great to work with and provided tons of info to make planning my visit perfect. I highly recommend this sweet little cottage!

Storybook cottage!

We had a lovely stay in Deena’s cottage. The cottage was super convenient to the car ferry, and we took many fun trips into Williamsburg and Jamestown with the kids. We enjoyed the private slice of beach right outside the cottage and kayaking with the kids in the river. Deena was incredibly communicative and knowledgeable and the check-in/out process was seamless. The cottage was well-appointed and the kitchen well-stocked and had everything we needed. All in all, the cottage was a perfect fit for our family of four!

A great beach weekend!

This cottage is a home away from home. Went for a long weekend with the family, including younger kids. The beach is steps from the house and the water is wonderfully shallow for hours of fun for little guys. Adults loved the comforts of home found in the cottage, Deena and Linda have outdone themselves to make sure this is a great home for everyone. The kitchen is full and ready for cooking, and the ferry provides easy access to Jamestown (and easy entertainment from the beach!) We caught catfish from the dock and enjoyed seeing Ospreys hunt from the kayaks. This is a great space! A true home away from home with everything we were looking for. Thank you!

Perfect Family Getaway

My recent stay at the charming cottage on the James River in Virginia was an absolute delight for my multi-generational family. From the moment we arrived, we were captivated by the cottage's cozy ambiance, scenic surroundings, and the abundance of activities in the nearby Williamsburg area. Our time spent here created cherished memories that will be treasured for years to come. The cottage owner was incredibly friendly, accommodating, and ensured that we had everything we needed for a comfortable stay. The recommendations for local attractions and dining options were spot-on, making our exploration of the area even more enjoyable. I wholeheartedly recommend the James River cottage to anyone seeking a peaceful and fulfilling family getaway.

Deena has done an amazing job at including everything you could need to enjoy your beach vacation! The house was the perfect size and you walk right out onto a perfect deck and the beach is right there. It was fun watching the ferry too!

River Front Retreat

This is a cozy little cottage located right on the river next to the VDOT Scotland Ferry Crossing, and is the smallest of three side by side properties operated by the same owner. There is a nice little beach area about 25 feet from the back door, and a fairly long dock to walk out over the river on. The nearby ferry (which is a vehicle ferry operated by VDOT - free) provides a relaxing 15 minute ride over to the Jamestowne side. From there, you are right at Historic Jamestowne, and a short 12 minute drive to Colonial Williamsburg. For my wife and I, this was a very nice getaway. The host was very gracious and easy to communicate with, and the cottage was clean and comfortable
 a great place to come back to after a day of site seeing to relax and enjoy time on the river. C & C

Historic trip

My grandsons and I spent the long MLK weekend in Aunt Annie's cottage in Surry VA. At less than 800 Square feet with three bedrooms it was amazing. The high ceilings made the space seem much bigger. There were upgrades throughout the cottage. High end appliances and fully stocked utensils and supplies. Heated towel rack and clawfoot tub, fluffy towels, bath robe and slippers made up for only one bathroom. Books-- lots of books-- games, movies and puzzles all added to the homey feel. We chose the area to give our fourth grader a Virginia History immersion. The cottage location was perfect. Right at our doorstep was the ferry that took us across the James River just up the road to Jamestown. Further up that same road is Williamsburg. Yorktown rounds out the history Tribeca and is less than an hour away. The owner was a dream to work with. She was very informative about the area and very concerned with our comfort. The cottage is steps away from the river's edge with a sand beach, pier, and water play opportunities. We definately will be back in warmer weather.

Let Down

There was a musty smell in the cottage. The furniture was not for relaxing but for good looks. The TV was behind the couch and then about 2 feet to the left. It was impossible to use it. When in the bathroom I could hardly turn around and the shower curtain was brown and it stuck to me when I was showering. The place was decorated very nicely. The back deck and pier were old and falling apart. The James River Fairy was right next to the house and was frequently blowing it's horn. The area where the cottage is located is very run down and unkempt. There was a homeless man that was at the back of the property one day when we returned. Over all we were very disappointed.

Gorgeous View

This small home sits on beautiful property. We enjoyed the view, fishing and kayaking each day. The ferry was fun to watch and was not loud or intrusive on our quiet time. It provided a quick access to Jamestown and Williamsburg. We also tried the seafood restaurant right up the road from the home and it was very good.

Lovely house on the James River

This is a lovely house that is also beautifully furnished. The kitchen is very attractive as well. The location is unusual (next to the free car ferry that traverses the James River 24 hours a day), but that is part of its charm. The ferry ride is a lot of fun, and became something we looked forward to. The ferry takes you to Jamestown/Williamsburg/Yorktown, but there is also a lot to see and do on the Surry side of the river. I particularly recommend a visit to Smithfield, and also one to the beautiful beach at Chippokes Plantation State Park, where we swam for hours. The ferry is quiet and did not disturb us in the slightest. The air-conditioning in the house kept us very comfortable during a very hot spell. We had ample towels and the kitchen is very well-equipped for cooking. There is a dishwasher. On evenings in, we enjoyed watching the DVDs provided with the television. There is a very good selection of books and magazines as well. One caution (and this is NOT a criticism, just things you should be aware of): make sure that you take a look at the map to see where you will need to go to do laundry (there is no washing machine in the house, and the listing on VRBO is completely transparent about this -- we took our laundry to a wash-and-fold service in Williamsburg) and to do a major grocery shop (again, Deena warned us of this as well -- we did shopping in supermarkets in both Smithfield and Williamsburg).

Great stay on the beach

Our family of five had a great time at this cottage on the beach, very near the Jamestown-Scotland ferry. Initially, we thought that we might be negatively impacted by being so close, but the ferry itself is noiseless and is interesting to watch as it comes and goes. This beachfront location was great for us because our six-year old is still not totally comfortable swimming above his head. The shallow entry and close proximity of the cabin to the shore made it possible for us to supervise our children easily and safely. The owner was very communicative and specific about the cabin. Everything was as expected. We had a great week!

Relaxing and wonderful location

My husband, son and I spent a week in the cottage and had a wonderful time. Deena and Linda were very helpful with things to do in the area and the cottage was very clean and stocked with a variety of books, DVDs and games for the family. My husband enjoyed fishing off the private pier and I enjoyed sitting on the deck reading or watching the ferry take cars across the James River. Thank you, Deena, so much for a wonderful week.

Lovely little cottage!

We enjoyed our stay! It’s obvious that a lot of thought went into how this cottage has been appointed and furnished. Our young boys loved the beach and the tree swing. They enjoyed watching the ferry, day and night. Easy access to Jamestown and other historic sights was a plus!

Don't stay here! It's a rip-off.

This is a concrete block house that is just feet away from the ferry and main route. You will hear motorcycles, the ferry motors and the ferry horn constantly, all day, all night. The beach is dirty with carcasses of animals and the yard is a swamp. The house is so tiny that you will have to keep your luggage in the living/dining/kitchen area. The host will send you overbearing messages every 10 minutes. You will be asked to photograph the house upon arrival so that you can leave it exactly as it was. The hosts asks that you scrub the kitchen. The host even instructs you how to use a soft-close toilet. The host instructs you that new tenants will arrive same day. There is no disinfection. None of these procedures are COVID-compliant. The house smells like mold. You will be asked to park between an abandoned boat and an abandoned car in a waterlogged, weed infested lawn. But the host provides a shovel to kill the snakes. With fees, this costs $500 a night. We are not complainer but this was an awful experience and we don't want other to suffer it.

Peaceful Cottage by the James

The experience was sublime. The cottage was filled with the comforts of a loving home away from home. Although we were only an hour away from home in Richmond, we felt far removed from our usual world.

wonderful long weekend!

This was just what we needed to get away. The cottage is adorable and spotless, and the private beach with its own little stream running into the river gave endless opportunities for fun with a shovel for our son. It was a great experience!

Weather challenges but great cottage

It was a lovely cottage with very nice decor. The location was a bit remote, but that made it more relaxing. We enjoyed watching the ferry go to and fro. The weather was horrible... a number of flash flood alerts woke us during the night. 9 inches of rain created some problems with the plumbing, but I would definitely go back and hope for better weather!

Much needed peace

We so enjoyed our stay. A perfect escape, so peaceful and quiet. Deena, the owner, does the utmost in providing lots of information about the house and the surrounding area. The house is beautifully equipped with everything you need. It is very close to the Car ferry dock, which for young kids, is fascinating to watch come and go. The shallow water at low tide is fabulous for kids swimming. There is nothing like sitting on the waters edge listening to the water lap on the sand and the myriad of bird noises around. For me, it was heaven.

Cutest place ever!

I can't rave enough about our time here - Ms. Deanne was wonderful as was Ms. Linda. They both were helpful and ensured our stay was perfect. It was the perfect place to unwind, paint, kayak, fish, and crab (from the pier). The cottage is SUPER clean and cozy and my party of 5 had just enough room. My girls checkout out of their cellphones and tablets and into nature, board games, and each other. I enjoyed sitting by the river, the quiet, and the waves going by. It really was delightful and I am so sure I'll book again soon!

Away from it all, yet close to everything!

Note: our visit was during the Covid I9 pandemic, just as things were starting to reopen. The cottage and linens were cleaned/sterilized, and we were met on arrival by someone who provided information and answered all our questions. We felt safe knowing the added cleaning precautions had been taken. I cannot say how much we enjoyed our stay at Aunt Annie's cottage. Photos in the listing do not do it justice. The cottage and property are beautiful and very well maintained. We were spoiled indoors by the luxurious linens and bedding, well stocked kitchen and fantastic tub! It is a small cottage, but our group of 4 adults (3 over 6ft tall) was very comfortable there. All the furnishings and decor are definitely more than one would expect in a holiday rental. Outside is a little slice of heaven. Beautiful, large lawn that feels like a park, and a private beach right out the door. Sand was soft and clean. Kayaks were provided and used daily. It was easy paddling and there's lots to explore up and down the riverfront. Guys caught lots of fish! Ferry is very close, but was not intrusive. Communication with the owner was the best! Deena went above and beyond in providing information that improved our visit. Area attractions (so much history nearby to explore!), restaurant suggestions, ferry info, shopping options and much more. We are excited to return for a longer stay to explore Colonial Williamsburg, a short ferry ride away. Highly recommend Aunt Annie's cottage for anyone seeking rest, relaxation and comfort, while being close to Williamsburg and Jamestown. We will be back!

Cute little cottage

We had the unfortunate timing of arriving on the same day as Hurricane Dorian, however Deena was great and kept us up to date with any concerns for the area. I could not have asked for someone more helpful! The location of the cottage was exactly what we needed – next to the ferry was perfect for the Patriots Triathlon at the Jamestown Event Beach Park. My husband was participating and he was able to go over to the event early, while I followed up later with our two boys in a stroller. It was so nice to not have to worry about a car that day. The ferry was also easy to use to connect to other areas of Jamestown/Williamsburg. The ferry did kind of impact our ability to enjoy the outdoor space (just not our favorite to look at and be near 24/7 as well as some noise) but that is to be expected based on the proximity. The cottage is definitely small but overall had everything we needed. Our boys (ages 2 & 4) enjoyed playing on the beach and in the river. Deena even had beach toys which they appreciated!

Varför vÀrden valde detta boende

My aunt and uncle purchased this lot in 1948 and built the cottage themselves over the next three years. My mother and father purchased the cottage next door - also in 1948. Another aunt and uncle purchased the lots on the other side of my parents' cottage and built a cottage there (now referred to as the Pink House). We spent most of our summers at these river cottages while children growing up.

Although we have experienced many hurricanes over the past 70 plus years, Hurricane Isabel took her toll on Aunt Annie's cottage and the entire tidewater Virginia area in 2003 when several other waterside cottages and most piers were washed away along with part of the Scotland Wharf ferry structure. Virginia sustained significant damage during Hurricane Isabel with blocked roads, severe coastal and inland flooding, wave surge, and damage, weeks without power and devastated beach communities. Aunt Annie's cottage has been restored since Hurricane Isabel and decorated with a combination of mostly antique and vintage furnishings with heavy hurricane shutters on the waterside to provide protection.

The 1948 items that remain include the original white porcelain farmhouse kitchen sink, the claw foot tub, brass wall sconces in each of the bedrooms, the interior knotty pine paneling walls, the original hardwood floors, and the wooden wall shelves and mirrors in each of the bedrooms handmade by the owner's grandfather. The only furniture in the cottage salvaged from the hurricane are the beautiful cedar four poster bed and dressing table made by Aunt Annie's father in 1950 for her new summer "river cottage." The bed, dressing table and bench continue to reside in the "back'" bedroom now named the "Williamsburg Bedroom." We call the waterside the front of the house should you get confused by my references.

Vad som gör detta boende unikt

There are only a handful of riverfront cottages for short-term rent on the James River and even fewer with level, direct water and beach access. Our two cottages are the only cottages level with the beach providing "walk out the door" access to the river and beach. Most of the other river front cottages are set high on a bluff or cliff with many steps to climb.

Our cottage is located on land level with the beach and close to Williamsburg, Jamestown, Yorktown, Busch Gardens, Smithfield and other historic sites including Petersburg and Richmond. Smithfield (about a 30 minute drive) is a great spot for antiquing, shopping. and great food. Our favorite shops are Laura and Lucy's and Wharf Hill Antiques. Smithfield also has several excellent restaurants for lunch or dinner.

If cooking is not on your vacation menu, take the 15 minute ferry ride to The Chickahominy House Restaurant on Jamestown Road about four miles from the ferry pier (on the Jamestown side) for wonderful breakfasts and lunches. Five Forks Cafe, also about five minute drive from the Jamestown Ferry dock, is a great breakfast spot that is good for children. Google both for their menus. I recommend lunch at The Old Chickahominy House Restaurant and prefer Miss Melinda's Special of brunswick stew, Edward's ham biscuits, fruit fruit salad, iced tea, and a slice of homemade pie all for a very special price. The coconut custard pie is out of this world. Call ahead from the ferry and talk to Dan or Maxine (tell them you are on the ferry) and ask to be put on their seating list.
