Wonderful space to relax in! The host is lovely and very responsive. One thing to note is the home is next to a fairly busy road in case you have little kids or dogs. Would recommend.

Great location!

We stayed 5 nights for a family wedding with 7 adults. There was plenty of room for everyone. We loved the deck with BBQ and the river views were beautiful. The location was so great and within walking distance to the downtown. Shweta was an excellent host and prompt in communication with us for any needs we had. We highly recommend this property.

Wonderful place right on the York River

We had a great time. Plenty of soices, herbs and other necessities. My only suggestion is to have a knife sharpener available and include facecloths. Other than that we had everything we beeded.

Everything you need

very spacious house, filled with nearly any supplies needed for your stay. hot tub and property was very enjoyable. the relaxing sound of the creek in the backyard took your focus away from the main road. homeless recommend next door was no trouble, plus hidden by a dividing

Spacious

Older home in reasonably good repair, except the back deck and a lot of squeaky doors. Lots of room and well-equipped. Large creek at the edge of the back yard which is very scenic and possibly a kayak launch but best to check first. Hot tub under the stars is lovely.
