Beautiful area

Guests love this home’s scenic location.

At this adorable studio cottage, wander 500+ acres of farmland and woods or unwind with a book on the fenced lawn. A cozy minimalist layout includes a queen bed and kitchenette with roll-out bar. A short drive from the galleries and harbors of Onancock, it’s an intimate hideaway for solo getaways or a romantic weekend for two.
Even though this rental has a fenced area, dogs must remain leashed while outside due to the close proximity of free-range livestock on the property.
