Lovely cottage on the River
We enjoyed staying at this cottage so much, we had to come back for a return visit. It was right on the water, with kayaks to use, and a pier to sit and enjoy the beauty of the water, or fish. The cottage was perfect for our family in that it had a large gathering room so everyone can be together to hang out and enjoy the view.

Perfect Anniversary Weekend
My husband and I truly enjoyed our stay at TLBC. The location was perfect for dinner in Urbanna at Something Different complete with live music and then a day exploring Kilmarnock. The house was so comfy and clean. Kudos to the high quality bedding and blackout curtains. The basket of snacks and coffee pods was a nice touch. If you live in Richmond or on the Peninsula, then you can't go wrong with this riverfront property only a short drive away.

Will return!
My friends and I loved our stay. Super comfortable house with beautiful views of the water. Very relaxing! Unfortunately the internet wasn't working for us. The host is aware and is working with the service provider to fix. We plan to return.

Great cottage!
Loved our stay at TLBC. The home was comfortable and well furnished/equipped for our group of four adults and one child. Wonderful location right on the water; we watched porpoises swim in the creek while we drank our morning coffee. Would absolutely return!

Great week on the river.
We had a wonderful week at The Little Blue Cottage in Topping, VA. It was very clean and the hosts thought of lots of nice details -from hand soap in the bathroom to play kitchen with grocery cart for the kids, to life jackets for the kayaks. We had great weather and caught crabs from the dock. It is an older cottage and has some quirks, but that’s what made our stay fun and unique. The neighborhood is good to walk in and we meet several friendly neighbors. Be sure to read “ The Little Blue Cottage” kids book if you are fortunate enough to stay there! Patti

Excellent Stay!
We had a great time here. The house is adorable, completely well-stocked and perfect for little kids. You can tell the owner really cares about guests, there were so many little touches throughout like snacks, white noise machines, nightlights, etc etc. Very comfortable stay, and the location right on the water could not be beat. We hope to come back again soon!
