Lovely location to relax and spend time with family. The woods and water are beautiful and an easy 25 minute drive to Williamsburg. House was very clean and our teenagers loved their separate space downstairs. Owner was great to work with an responded quickly to our questions.

Fantastic place for a weekend getaway
My family and I loved staying here. Was such a great place and my teenagers loved having access to the pool table, air hockey and arcade games in the room they were sleeping in! Was only 30 minutes from Busch Gardens too!

My stay
James was a great host. The problems I had were first VRBO sent me nothing again about check in, location, nothing. This is the second time that happened and I won’t be using VRBO again for any future travels. Second was the mattress on the bed was terrible and I had to leave early because my back couldn’t take it anymore. Third there were any trash bags, a broom and dust pan. There was a vacuum but that was broken(the pickup brush doesn’t go around and just falls out) and there was a Swiffer type mop but the pads that were there weren’t the correct ones. The pool table in the game room the balls just fell into the bottom somewhere and weren’t retrievable so that was pretty much useless and there was a dirty sock stuffed down inside one of the pockets. The other games worked fine and my grandkids enjoyed playing them and using the outdoor slides and zip line and such. These are things I am sure that James will fix. The other thing I didn’t realize is that this property is right behind his house, I thought it was going to be a property more by itself with a little more privacy. I didn’t see that in any pictures nor could I see it on Google maps because of the trees. It’s a beautiful area, very quiet and peaceful area but I was expecting something a little more private. It’s personal opinion, it doesn’t bother some people but it wasn’t what I was looking for in a rental. Even though James said feel free to use the property I felt like I was intruding on someone’s personal space, that’s just me I think because I tend to be very private.

Thanksgiving get away
Nice, clean property. Listing was not clear that it was 2 separate entrances. Child had to sleep downstairs alone. Wi fi needs upgraded, took 3+ hours to watch a 2 hour movie due to buffering. No privacy blinds upstairs was a bit unsettling. But very private and quite with beautiful views.

Home away from home
Great rental with plenty of opportunity to relax and unwind. My kids loved jumping off the dock and swimming and it was wonderful to have kayaks and a paddle board to use. Lots of downtime relaxation in the game room. House was easy to get to and convenient access to everything in Williamsburg or Richmond. Host was 100% available, helpful and friendly.
