Cozy cottage on the Chesapeake Bay

The area is full of mariner history back to Captain John Smith visiting Gywn's Island. The charming area still thrives from oysters and crab watermen. Water activities nearby. Be sure not to miss the local markets and seafood festivals

My third stay and can't wait to return!

I enjoy this cottage so much that I have booked a month-long visit twice and hope to do it again next year. The cottage is located at the end of the Piankatank River where it empties into the Chesapeake Bay. The views from the cottage, deck, and pier are lovely with incredible sunsets and sunrises. It is well stocked, very clean and comfortable. The hostess is quick to respond if there are any issues that need attention. To sum it all up, the stay there is almost like being at home but much more peaceful!

Wasn’t what we expected!!!

When we got to the property, the neighbors came out with their dogs and watched us as we unloaded our car. When we entered the house we noticed that the front door and the living room didn’t have curtains!!! The whole feeling of this place felt weird, we decided not to stay at all

Perfect weekend

The house was perfect for our weekend. Great views! The house had everything we needed. Appreciated all the extras like toilet paper, paper towels, condiments, coffee, and more. Super easy to check out. Sidenote, the only TV is in the master bedroom. Would probably be useful if the TV stand had wheels so it could be pulled into the living room for everybody to watch a movie. The house is 15 minutes away from a small winery, with tons of wine and food options and the town of Matthews, with a lot of antique shops.

Second time we’ve stayed. My niece has stayed here before, too. Thoroughly enjoyed our time here, even though we spent most of it away from the house with family nearby. We did get to see the spectacular sunset one night though. It was amazing!

Quick Get-A-Way to the Bay

Check-in and check-out was very easy and clearly explained. The house was very clean and tidy, no musty smell at all. Glenda, the host, was very accommodating and quick to answer any and all questions thoroughly. The area is absolutely beautiful with gorgeous views of the river and sunset. Overall it was a lovely experience for our quick get away, highly recommend!

Peaceful property

The home was peaceful. Right on the water & there was plenty of pots,pans,dishes, & silverware. There was condiments in the fridge that were used that im guessing were also for our use but it didnt sit right with me using unopened food. There was only 1 small TV with no cable connections & no dedicated den/living room. My kids love to game together & this was not possible. There was no sofa just a day bed & 1 recliner. It wasnt as comfortable as I'd hoped it would be, including beds. Communication with the host was quick & I was offered a refund for some amenities that were incorrectly advertised.
