Dog Friendly Country Home Ferry Ride to Williamsburg w/o the Williamsburg Price

Thank you for checking out the home we lived in for 13 years. It is an 1800 square foot modular with 2 full bath and 4 bedrooms on 3/4 of an acre. We now have a queen bed in the master bedroom, 1 twins in 3 bedrooms. So we have beds for 5 people. We don't mind if you bring a few more guest and use the couch or bring your own air mattress. We actually have another bonus room for air mattresses or cots. NOTE: The hot water heater can handle about 4-5 quick, less than 5 minute showers. After that it gets chilly quickly and you have to give it close to an hour to catch up. Good luck:-)

***We do offer long term discounts for work or other needs. Please send an inquiry as we work on a case by case basis depending on your needs***

It has a master bedroom with its own bathroom and small walk in closet. The master bedroom has a queen size bed. Three other bedrooms have twin beds. Each room has closets and dressers.

It has a large front and back yard and is surrounded on 3 sides with forest. There is a fire pit you are welcome to use. We have chairs available and a limited supply of chopped wood and a limitless supply in the woods. Straight back from the house a driveway cuts through the woods, please do not cross the driveway. We live locally and are in the process of improving the property inside and out.

We welcome dogs for an extra fee. The fees are: 1 dog $20 per night, 2 or more dogs, $15 per dog per night.

The house does have a covered back porch to relax on and has a gas grill on it. The porch has a locking latch on it so you can leave your dog outside in a locked in area at night or while you're out and about. It DOES get hot even though its covered. There is a nearby spigot to give your dog fresh water. We do ask that unless your dog really sticks close by you don't let them roam free about the neighborhood for your dogs safety and consideration for our neighbors. Our closest neighbors to our right ARE fearful of dogs and we had to make sure ours were in our yard at all times. We have NEVER had fleas. Please do not bring dogs with fleas, PLEASE! Please walk them on a leash if they are prone to running off. We lost 2 dogs over the years that made it out to the road.

The house has central air and heat that will keep you very cool in the summer and nice & warm in the winter. PLEASE PLEASE do not lower the AC lower than 72 and if you're leaving for long periods of time please bump it up to 78 degrees. It will remain cool and you can bump it back down when you come back. You adjust the thermostat by holding the arrow in the direction you want to go until it blinks and then push it again the number of times needed. The fireplace/wood stove is temporarily out of commission.

WE DO HAVE WIFI NOW!!! Via a Verizon jet pack.

The kitchen amenities include full size fridge, electric full size stove and oven, large microwave, pots, pans, dishes, silverware, kitchen table, and a furnished living room with TV and DVD player. We do not have cable, satellite, at this time. We are trying to get an antenna that will give you a decent amount of local and national channels but we do not have that yet.

Williamsburg is a peaceful and FREE ferry ride across the James River. Our driveway is 1.7 miles from the ferry. You can Google Jamestown/Scotland ferry for the schedule. Basically, it runs every half hour but during peak hours it runs approximately every 20 minutes and between 8 pm and 5 am it runs every hour, at the top of the hour on the Surry side and bottom of the hour for the Jamestown side. Colonial Williamsburg, Jamestown Museum and Settlement, Bush Gardens, Water Country USA, and tons of restaurants can be found just on the other side of the river. Virginia Beach is about an hour away as is Richmond. So, you can come stay with us and have a ton of places to visit in any direction while resting in our quiet comfortable place in the woods. About 10 minutes away is a 7-11, Dollar General, Chinese food place called Chens Asian Grill. We have an excellent seafood restaurant called Surry Seafood very close by as well.

The town of Smithfield, home of the world famous Smithfield Ham is about 20 to 25 minutes away. Smithfield has a Foodlion and coming soon, a Kroger. Smithfield is a quaint town and had several good restaurants and a brewery. The brewery is called Warfhill. Restaurants include Q Daddy's Pitmaster which is awesome barbecue. Smithfield Station which is a very good casual restaurant with great seafood and deck seating. There are a plethora of fast food joints as well.

There is a town about 30 minutes southwest called Wakefield and that town has a high concentration of antique stores.

We would appreciate your opinion as to how we can make your stay more enjoyable and comfortable. Please let us know and GOD BLESS!
