Busch Gardens-Williamsburg-Fishing-Cornhole-Deck-River View- FIRE TABLE!

Welcome to “The Riva!” The memories made in our family river home have been endless. The living room with 7 huge picture windows plus a sliding glass door overlooking the river makes the sunrises dreamy!! This home is perfect for families coming to relax, boat, fish, and sightsee with a quick free ferry ride(drive on) across to Jamestown or Williamsburg (BUSCH GARDENS!!). It runs 24 hours a day 7 days a week. It’s about 15 minutes to the FREE drive-on ferry, a 15-20 min ferry ride then once you dock it’s about 10 minutes to get to Busch Gardens. There is also a public beach just off the ferry for everyone to enjoy. We have no doubt your family memories will be endless as well!!

IF YOU HAVE NEVER EXPERIENCED A FERRY: The Ferry is a FREE fun experience! You drive on with your car. Once the boat leaves the dock you can get out and walk around. Enjoy looking over the water, the birds, and all the river scenery. Then once the boat docks, you drive off and are in Williamsburg/Jamestown! There is also a restroom located on the ferry. Go experience it!!

Only a 2.5-hour drive to mountain resorts for skiing and snowboarding, such as Massanutten and Wintergreen.

The wrap-around deck with a picnic table, cornhole boards, fire pit with seating, gas grill, and additional chairs makes for great outdoor entertainment! Enjoy a cozy cup of coffee (provided) or a cocktail while sitting by the fire table and watching the sunset as the eagles fly over the river.

The kitchen is fully stocked with anything you could need to use to cook! 2 full-size refrigerators. (One in the kitchen one in the laundry room) Coffee and filters provided.

There are tons of games and puzzles in the closet if there’s a rainy day. Try our family favorite, Chicken Foot, with the Dominos!

This was never meant to be a rental so trust me there’s everything!

All linens are white, cozy, and freshly laundered including down comforters! AND INCLUDED at no additional cost!

Keyless entry makes checking in at any time seamless.

Please let me know at the time of booking if you will be bringing motorized toys so I can review the guidelines.

The private beach area is for lot owners only, but everyone can enjoy the river view from the wrap-around deck! Nice public boat ramp located approx 12 min from the house. Gorgeous public beach right at Jamestown! Pack up and enjoy the day!
The vacation home is air-conditioned and features a kitchen, 3 bathrooms, and a balcony. There's space to spread out with 4 bedrooms and a dining area. Guests can expect to find free WiFi and a Smart TV with a DVD player. Other standard amenities include a washing machine, a coffee maker, and an ironing board. Housekeeping is available on request.

An ideal family vacation cabin.

This secluded hideaway cabin is obviously a home with years of accumulation of entertainment and home away from home necessities. Despite its age, it was incredibly clean. If vacationing in the Williamsburg area, the ferry is fun and adds to the “family entertainment”. Although the commute is a hike, the home feeling rather than commercial hotel is absolutely worth the trade off. The hostess was available to respond to any questions. As planned renovations come about, it can only enhance anyone’s vacation. Highly recommend for a family getaway!

Secluded, peaceful cabin

We had a great time at the cabin. We really enjoyed the wraparound deck and full wall view of river from living and dining rooms downstairs. The binoculars and telescope were a nice addition to check out the view. Comfortable beds and linens. Ideal if you’re looking for a quiet, peaceful getaway. We loved it.

Hidden Gem

Get away from the hustle and bustle of Williamsburg and stay here! A very seamless and quick (free) car ferry ride across the James to get to Busch Gardens and Jamestown. This place is great for families. There is even a basketball hoops the kids enjoyed! Lots of space to move and very quiet and serene. We tried 2/3 restaurants in town, both good. Neighbors were friendly and lots of charm. Amanda was fabulous to work with during our stay.

This was an awesome home nestled just far enough away from civilization but still close enough to access whatever you needed. The home was very clean and well-maintained and had a marvelous view of the James river. The host was very hospitable and extremely quick to answer any inquiries.

Lovely visit

We very much enjoyed our stay at River House. The view of the James River was spectacular and the house was cozy and very comfortable. I loved riding the ferry over to Jamestown and Williamsburg, The hosts are first rate and very helpful. Loved sitting in the very comfortable living room and watching the eagles, osprey and other birds flying around the river. Great vacation place!

Virginian Vacation

Our two families drive down from NH and MA. The house was a perfect set up for our group. We took the ferry into Jamestown and surrounding areas to explore the historic sites and enjoy Busch Gardens. Beautiful sunrise over the river each morning. Our host was great with communication. The downstairs did get buggy near the sliders towards the end of our stay.

Great house, when we arrived and let Amanda know the code was right there to get in. This is away from any major roads so you may want to stock up. The James River ferry is also neat. Well worth the stay, thanks Amanda.

We had a nice time using this as home base while we went to Jamestown and Busch Gardens. It is a bit remote and by the end of the week the commute with the ferry was getting old. A nice, quiet place to stay for sure.

Time-out!!

Very comfortable, relaxing and well appointed. We brought our own breakfast foods and snacks, but otherwise it out. Very appreciative for the game closet as described in the day. Corn hole boards. Unfortunately, our weather was not the best so we were happy to be able to pull one car under and access the house without getting soaked. It might be good to label the sliding glass doors that one shouldn’t try to open. We were a little bit concerned about the situation in terms of the ferry, and were delighted to find out that there was no charge for it.

We loved our stay at Spring Grove. The beds were comfy, the setting quiet and the house cozy with a great view. It is rather remote and the owner seems to have thought of the little things that might be needed. We had events planned in Williamsburg and enjoyed the ferry ride over.
