Country House
Great spot one of the nicest spots I’ve stayed in. 20 minutes from Richmond great restaurants in the area. Super clean right near the river James. If we ever go back to that area again, I will definitely look to stay at this house.

Modern Cabin on James River
The cabin worked just great for our family get-together. The double garage made unloading our van in the pouring rain a non issue. Kitchen and adjoining large eating table allowed us all to be together during meal prep. Cabin is literally located steps from Civil War earthworks for military history buffs. A quiet and secluded place for a get-away but within 20 min to restaurants, museums, and entertainment in Richmond.

Family Get Away
This was the perfect place for us and the kids to get away to! The house and surrounding property were absolutely beautiful. Tons of space for the kids to run and play, a huge porch to relax on, and the beds were all so comfortable nobody had any issue sleeping. Will absolutely be back!

Fabulous Retreat
We stayed at Cozy Cabin for my son's graduation weekend. We loved using the bikes to get to the marina and pond. The front porch and back deck provided great hangout spots. The hosts were very accomodating.
