Better than we expected!!! This was a last minute (literally) after we had booked a different property a couple of months ago. That property fell through the day before we were scheduled to arrive. Props to Karen (host) and VRBO for helping us save the trip. We were asked what we thought could be done to make the listing more representative of the house. Can’t really think of anything specific, other than to read the reviews. In our opinion, the property was perfect!!

Great find
We wanted a quick last minute weekend beach trip and this was perfect! We had never heard of Colonial Beach but the drive from Northern VA was a breeze. The house is great! Clean and in a nice quiet area close to the beach. We missed out on renting a golf cart but would recommend as most people use them.
