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

4.92 out of 5 average rating, 123 reviewsThe 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!

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.

We had a relaxing weekend at the river. We had so much privacy and were super happy with the house
Home in Scotland
4.91 out of 5 average rating, 126 reviewsSpacious Gorgeous Waterfront Home with Sunset View
Our family of 5 adults, 1 child and an infant had a lovely Thanksgiving visit to Karina's house in Scotland. The house was very spacious and comfortable for all. Our 5-yr old granddaughter was especially thrilled with 'her' room -- nicely decorated and quite suitable for her age. The other bedrooms had great mattresses (relatively new?) and the linens were all good quality. The kitchen had most of the items you'd need to make a big dinner and even bake. The location was very quiet and given the time of year, a peaceful retreat to simply enjoy the view of Tanner Creek. All in all it was a great spot for a family holiday gathering.

Hutch's Bluff is our favorite place to go. The house on the bluff is magical. All the touches inside the home and outside are just incredible. We love to sit on the deck and enjoy the beautiful views, the eagles and the fire pit. My new favorite at the house if the outdoor shower and tub. The hosts, John and Mary Beth are the best!
Home in Colonial Beach
4.98 out of 5 average rating, 59 reviewsWaterfront 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 in Lanexa
4.99 out of 5 average rating, 120 reviewsHidden Heaven Lake house on private 1 acre.
Thank you for hosting us! Our kids really enjoyed kayaking, pedal boating, fishing off the dock, and watching the various birds hunt for fish. It was very quiet during our off-season visit. We will look to come back the next time are in the area!
Cottage in Clarksville
4.92 out of 5 average rating, 161 reviewsLakefront Cottage w/ great view and use of dock
We had an absolutely wonderful stay. The property is absolutely beautiful, the space was immaculately clean, and we had everything we needed to feel right at home. Can only highly recommend Anne’s spot. It would be our pleasure to visit again in the future.
Cottage in Warsaw
4.94 out of 5 average rating, 108 reviewsModern 2 Bdrm Cottage in Historic River Community
Renee’s home felt like a peaceful retreat. The country drive was serene and it brought you to a nestled community along the river. I loved the quaint church on your street too! I saw neighborhood dogs playing from Renee’s porch swing as I watched the sunset each evening. She left you kayaks and bikes to use while visiting too which was a nice touch. The home itself is exactly as pictured, if not better. My father said, “this is probably the nicest shower I’ll ever use in my lifetime”. Whether you’re looking for a cozy home to hunker down in or a place to watch your kids run around and play, this home is a great pick for everyone. Highly recommend! Thank you, Renee for being so responsive when I had questions and for opening your space to us. xx
Cottage in Chesapeake
4.95 out of 5 average rating, 132 reviewsThe Cottage @ Captain Genes - Secluded Waterfront
Our stay in this home was such a treat! We enjoyed utilizing the kayaks to boat around in Chesapeake Bay. The hot tub was an absolute delight, perfect for evening stargazing, saw lots of shooting stars, and could see the water of the bay from the hot tub. We also enjoyed doing November cold plunges from the hot tub to the pool. While the living room is not expansive, it fit our needs for family game & movie nights. The bed linens were so comfortable, and Lori was beautifully responsive & friendly when we would reach out with a question. We also enjoyed the nearby Sandy beaches.
Cottage in Gwynn
4.96 out of 5 average rating, 208 reviewsMystic Seahorse Cottage & game room
Everything was perfect. My 3 kids and I had such an enjoyable weekend. My son absolutely loved fishing and crabbing on the docks and my daughters won’t stop begging me for a tree swing. The house literally had everything we needed, plus some!
Cottage in Kinsale
4.93 out of 5 average rating, 232 reviewsGreat little cottage with a "Rivah" view
We drove from Bowling Green Kentucky and was so amazed by the location and the house. The host have done such a great job with their location. We will definitely be making plans to come back in the summer time. I would recommend this location to anyone. And I will also say if anyone has problems with a tire I will recommend the Tire doctor shop. Wes the owner and his guys took great care of us when we had a flare and bent rim. This little area is a home away from home area

Cottage in Montross
4.98 out of 5 average rating, 137 reviewsNewly Renovated 2BR Waterfront Cottage with Dock
What a great place to spend Thanksgiving! The house is perfect with stunning views of Nomini Creek and sunrises that are just incredible. The neighborhood is quiet and secluded but still easy to get to. Essentials (groceries, supplies, gas, etc) are just a short drive away. The house is exactly as described with everything needed for a great stay. Although due to the cold we did not take full advantage of all the deck space, we could tell it would be fantastic in the summer.

Cabin in Lusby
4.91 out of 5 average rating, 245 reviewsPeaceful Waterfront Retreat on The Bay
Wow… what an amazing location and packed with so many details and so much character! We caught white perch off the private dock, rented a skiff down in Solomons to cruise the Patuxent, found a nice sized shark tooth fossil on the bay cliffs side, and caught some more perch using the cabin’s kayaks… all in all an amazing time even deep into cold November, I can’t wait to go back ASAP this is my new favorite place to escape!
Cabin in Roxboro
4.87 out of 5 average rating, 165 reviewsWater Front Lake House!
Shane was an amazing host. Everything was pristine when we arrived. Check in was a breeze, the directions were perfect, everything was as advertised. The lake is absolutely beautiful and the views were spectacular. We spent the whole day outside and the cabin was super cozy and comfortable after a long day. We already can’t wait to come back.
Cabin in Mineral
4.96 out of 5 average rating, 109 reviewsLog Cabin Retreat on Lake Anna, private side!
Best spot for our family reunion! Appreciated the open concept main level for our meals & the extra full size frig for sodas, water & ice cream. We were glad a grocery store was nearby. All bedrooms were spacious & comfortable for all. The extra-large master opening to the patio & with the fireplace was peaceful. Various board games & puzzles were fun, but the lower-level game room hit the ball out of the park! Thoroughly enjoyed the large firepit & ample seating; it was the perfect spot for sharing memories & laughs. Morning sunrises were spectacular! The enclosed patio on the dock was a welcome spot for a quiet nap. The lake was so inviting, several of us took a canoe ride. Glad there were a variety of sizes of life vests to keep our family safe. The sandy beach area thrilled our little one making all her sandcastles. There was so much love and enjoyment shared at this gorgeous setting! We are so thankful to our hosts for sharing their beautiful property. Planning to come again!

Rhonda was proactive in contacting me prior to our stay. She answered all my questions within a short amount of time. Her & her husband are great hosts and you can tell they truly care about their guests. The space both inside and out was perfect for our Thanksgiving holiday.
Cabin in Smithfield
4.88 out of 5 average rating, 137 reviewsWickline Cabin on Moon Creek
What a quiet peaceful spot with deer roaming. Sound of a rooster off in the distance. Such a great spot to sit on the porch with a cup of coffee. I could have sat there for hours, but we had a wedding close by to attend. :-) This cabin tucked in the woods is rustic with modern amenities Farm fresh eggs in the fridge were a nice touch! Spotless, comfortable home away from home. With family living in the Hampton Roads area I can see us traveling from Florida to visit and stay in Calebs home again. Thank you for such an amazing peaceful stay!
