Nice Place for family stay
Great place to spend some family time, in nice and walkable, neighborhood. Home has good water views and a very inviting outdoor space to have the morning coffee. Plenty of pool and river toys available and very organized-very thankful for the inviting atmosphere.Pool and extra shower towels were not provided which would have been nice to know prior to arrival. Also, the dock, which is easily acceptable is also shared with the small community. We never ran into anyone at the dock but there were a couple of cars parked behind the pool at the dock entrance. No problems arose from either of these items-overall great place to stay.

Great place in very quiet location!
The house was a great space for my family to stay. In all, we had 10 people including adults, teenagers, and a baby. The upstairs space was nicely separated and provided a place for the kids to play and have their privacy and the sound didn't interfere with the adults hanging out downstairs. Lovely pool, and easy drive to Williamsburg and Gloucester.

Great house for a family vacation
This was a wonderful house for a family vacation! There was plenty of room for everyone (with lots of bathrooms!!!). The pool is perfect, the dock was great for sitting, the kayaks were fun (plenty of life jackets in the garage), the kitchen was well equiped (with lots of plasticware for near the pool), and the historic sites (Williamsburg, Jamestown, Yorktown) are all just an hour away)

Family Vacation
This is the second year in a row we have stayed at this location and will definitely be booking again. The house is perfect for our extended family we had the best time. The house was clean, the kitchen is well stocked with essentials and cookware, and the property was perfect. We had rain one day which we spent in the game room. Other than that we spent everyday at the pool or fishing on the dock!

This beautiful, well-organized home had lots of space for entire family.

Best Family Vacation Ever!
Absolutely no disappointments! So spacious, comfortable and accommodating! The pool was so fun for the kids and relaxing for the adults. It was so clean and perfect temperature! The kids so enjoyed the dock and fishing, caught fish and crabs and bait fish. Sunsets on the river will be memorable! It is everything advertised. I was not expecting the house to be so roomy. The master bedroom and bath were huge. The game room was vast. This has been the best family vacation experience we have had!

Perfect Getaway!
There are so many positive things to say about the home. The views from the house/dock are just lovely! The house has something for everyone. Some highlights include: the game room and the shuffle bowl tournaments; kayaking; swimming in the pool.
Another thing that impressed us what how immaculate the home was. This was the cleanest property that I have ever rented!

Fantastic Getaway
John and Violetta were fantastic hosts. They responded to any messages and inquiries quickly. I loved the welcome book they left on the counter with menus, a list of nearby stores and even places to visit.
The house and pool were clean and had everything we needed for our stay.
The neighborhood is so quiet and the views of the river from the deck are beautiful. My family and I had a wonderful, peaceful and relaxing vacation.

House is great. Pool is not properly maintained
This home is amazingly clean and well kept,but the pool unfortunately does not follow the same standard. Upon checking in found the pool water was extremely cloudy so bad you could not see the bottom. Contacted owners and notified them of the issue ,which they were already aware of from their cleaning crew but never notified us until we contacted them. In short don't expect pool to be as well maintained as the home is

Excellent stay at a lovely property
We went for a family vacation with grandparents, parents and four kids and everyone had a great time. The house was very clean upon check in and it is well stocked with all you need. The pool is great, the screened-in porch is perfect for meals, and the yard is good for games. We took advantage of the kayaks made available and did several lovely trips along the river. This is a highly recommended property and we hope to return!

Our family really enjoyed our time at John and Violetta's vacation home. The onsite amenities are abundant between the inground pool, walking distance to the river and the family fun game room.

We had such a wonderful time on our vacation. There is so much to do at the house that we rarely needed to leave. The house is beautiful and the view is very relaxing.
