Peaceful and Cozy Waterfront Home (just renovated)
We enjoyed staying here The place was just as peaceful and relaxing as we hoped I would definitely recommend and stay here again if ever in town again

Peaceful bay retreat. Hot tub,water views,fire pit
A spacious home by the water. We celebrated Thanksgiving at this location and it was very special. The views are beautiful, had a fire right by the water and relaxed by the beach. A perfect getaway with family and friends. It has everything you need, the living room is super comfortable and great to relax with the family. The kitchen was spacious making it easy to cook and entertain the family. We loved the hot tub, playing pool and having family dinner. Overall a fabulous experience!! Great host- great communication. Highly recommend

The Hideaway at Mill Creek
Everything about this home was perfect for our family of four that loves the Bay. Peaceful, amazing views, well stocked, comfortable, private pier with kayaks, a zillion movie and game choices, close to NNK towns. The hot tub was a bonus. By the end of the weekend we wanted to move in! And the next door pup Bella was the sweetest. Thank you, we will be back for sure!

Family & Pet Friendly Private Beach Retreat
Responsive and communicative via AirBnb app. Open to small changes we had to make. Beautiful house and wonderful neighborhood. Everything as described and reasonable price. Truly provided the BnB part of AirBnb with linens, cleaning/cooking supplies, and bathroom supplies. Very scenic. The pictures don't do it justice when it comes to the proximity of the dock. It is right outside the window of the master bedroom.

The River House
We had a relaxing weekend at the river. We had so much privacy and were super happy with the house

Spacious Gorgeous Waterfront Home with Sunset View
This house is perfect for large groups. It is very spacious, with plenty of room to spread out and get comfortable. We enjoyed sitting on the dock taking in the serene natural beauty of the Creek and observing the local birdlife, including Kingfishers, Great Blue Herons, and Bald Eagles. The house is situated very near to the entrance of Lookout Point State Park which we greatly enjoyed exploring on bicycles. Seeing a large wedge of Tundra Swans fly overhead was a special moment. If you want to spend some time relaxing in a beautiful setting in a beautiful and very interesting area with a large group, this house will serve you well.

Hutch's Bluff - Waterfront near Williamsburg
Hutch’s Bluff is a gem. It felt very serene and private. The amenities were top notch. There were plenty of supplies to cook with in the kitchen. We especially enjoyed the outdoor fire pit with panoramic views of the river. 5/5

Waterfront Paradise with own Beach, Kayak, & Grill
We loved this snug, little spot on the water. Watching the sunrise over the water made for enjoyable mornings. It had a full kitchen that made cooking our meals very easy. Two seating areas in the living area gave us room to spread out. Fast wifi....I even stayed online while I was down by the water. I wasn't a huge fan of the overly curious swans, but I did find some really nice pieces of sea glass down by the water. The heat in this house was great.
Cottage rentals with a kayak

Hidden Heaven Lake house on private 1 acre.
Joyce has done a phenomenal job with this lake house. Everything has been thought through. The house actually looks even better than the pictures. You can tell a lot of thought went into the decor. And it is super clean. The kitchen is fully stacked with everything you would need ant home or away. Ample seasoned fire wood and starter sticks makes using their MASSIVE fire pit a breeze. The best part is she gives you access to both of their docks and you will not have to take your boat or kayak out of the water once. We kayak fished Johnson’s and Lacey’s with ease from her house. 100% coming back to stay again.

Lakefront Cottage w/ great view and use of dock
2nd time staying here, this house is amazing. I hope i get to stay here again, so worth the effort to find this home.

Modern 2 Bdrm Cottage in Historic River Community
I enjoyed my stay at this location while I was working in the area. The house was very clean and had a great view of the river. I loved the area and all of the amenities that she had in the home. Would definitely return.

Levering Creek Cottage with Private Docking
We needed a place to chill and unwind and this was it! Not much to do this time of year but we didn't care. We loved every minute of our time on the island. Everyone was so friendly and we felt right at home. Beautiful sunsets and delicious catered meals. Thank you!!!

Hertford Hideaway
Charming house on the water in an equally charming town. We came because we had a family event in Elizabeth City, But would be a wonderful longer stay for family. Hope to come back. Linda was very helpful.

Great little cottage with a "Rivah" view
Fabulous location! Our stay at this cottage was truly wonderful. The home was very nice, well-decorated, spotless, and very cozy. The kitchen and bathrooms were well-appointed. The dock was in great shape and a real treat. Our son spent many hours kayaking, and I fished for hours (even though nothing was biting). It was all very peaceful. The location with the river view was amazing. The sunroom was my wife's and mother-in-law's favorite place. We enjoyed our stay. It was very relaxing.

Potomac River cheerful cottage
Linda’s home is a beautiful place to spend time getting away. It matched the description perfectly and Linda was very helpful whenever we had any questions. Would stay again.

Newly Renovated 2BR Waterfront Cottage with Dock
The cottage was easy to find and access to premises was exactly as described. I was treated to a Wow! experience with the beautiful water view entering the front door of the cottage. The cottage was clean, peaceful, and nicely appointed.
Cabin rentals with a kayak

Modern Riverfront Cabin w/ HotTub, FirePit, Kayaks
We had an awesome time at this cabin. I was blown away by the attention to detail that was put into everything. Everything you could need is provided and it really feels like home in no time. Then it goes beyond that because it has all these amazing additional stuff like the hot tub and a fire pit. It has grill with propane and all the kitchen tools and utensils you might need. Really comfy bed and couches. SmartTV and a binder with just about any DVD you might want to watch. It's 30 seconds from this nice river and there are kayaks and a canoe if you want to take advantage of that. 30 minutes from Masenhutten resort (skiing, indoor waterpark, tons of other stuff). It was very clean and well kept. Rule is you can't have a party there but we broke that rule from the first second cuz we had a blast the whole time! (Dont worry, we didn't have an actual party.)

Rustic Cabin on a 350+ acre Camp
Our stay at The Pickle at Hat Creek Camp was nothing short of amazing! The cabin is the perfect size for a couple and was extremely clean when we arrived. The walking trails and disk golf course were our favorite amenities of the camp. We walked over 3 miles daily and still didn’t see the whole camp. The weather was a little too chilly for us to enjoy the water amenities but it gives us an excuse to come back in the warmer season. A disk golf set was in the cabin for use and we thoroughly enjoyed learning how to play. The cabin had plenty of things to cook with and eating utensils. Make sure to bring charcoal for the grill! Plenty of firewood for the fire pit was provided and was easy to find. The bed was comfortable and had plenty of pillows. The heaters in the walls work great and warmed up the whole cabin quickly. Plus the heater in the bathroom ceiling was great on our cold mornings! We will definitely be back!!!

Peaceful Waterfront Retreat on The Bay
Beautiful serene spot with gorgeous views. Devin was always very quick to respond, which is always appreciated. Will definitely be back!

Water Front Lake House!
Shane was an excellent host from beginning to end! The cabin is very private and peaceful with a great view of the lake and lots of amenities. I would definitely stay again.

Log Cabin Retreat on Lake Anna, private side!
This was our family's second time here. It's hard to find a place that can accommodate a large group, including a couple seniors with special needs and two young kids. We were lucky to have snow, so had a great time playing in the very large backyard. The kitchen is well stocked, so did all our own cooking and we barely had to leave the house. We hope to be back again soon!

Rocreek Cabin at Little Stoney Creek
Absolutely perfect for our gal-pal mountain getaway! Rhonda was a superb host, offering our crew ample comfort and coffee. She was welcoming and has created a space that allowed us to escape to the peace and beauty of the mountains with the comforts of home. We especially loved the stream side porch and evening fire pit. Can’t wait to return!

Wickline Cabin on Moon Creek
Spent the weekend up here for a quick getaway. It’s a beautiful cabin - location is great, it’s very quiet, and it was the perfect place to escape life for a couple of days. Loved it!!

*No Fees* Lake Cabin with Private Dock
Amelia was a great host. My best friend and I went for a couple of night mom refresh and it was easy and refreshing. There is a lot you can do with a little better weather - canoe, hammock, kids playground. We enjoyed the hot tub, did a 1000 piece puzzle, and just the silence and serenity of no work and no dishes 😂. It was great and refreshing and now back to mom and work world. Will hopefully make it a quarterly event.
