Quiet and relaxing

Comments from the family “Loved the individual spaces for privacy” “Thoroughly enjoyed the toys (bikes, corn hull, rafts, kayaks, game room etc)” Lots of yard space to “hang out”. “Great view” “Great birding spot”. “A real boost for us was we could bring the dog” All in all we had a most satisfying vacation.

Relaxing Family Trip

Took the family and two small grandchildren (6 mo. and 2.5 yrs.) and had a great time. Plenty of room for all 7. It's a well maintained amazing property right on the bay with loads of deck space attached to house, a bay view deck, and a group of Adirondack chairs to relax in. Being in Reedville is pretty remote (which we wanted), though house and kitchen well equipped.

Beautiful house, great beach for the kids. Downside: restaurants were closed most of the week. We had a couple of days where you could smell the fish processing plant, limiting outside activities.

Amazing vacation!

We enjoyed every aspect of our week. From the spacious and beautiful home, the private beach, the lawn games, the wildlife, and the slow pace. The home is stocked with everything you might need to cook with (although I'm not a fan of the cook-top stoves that glow under the glass) and 2 refrigerators. The water was clean, refreshing, and kept us entertained. We didn't encounter any jellyfish, seaweed, or odors from the fish processing plant. We would recommend it to anyone with a large group. Tom, the owner, was easy to contact and communicated with us the entire time from reservation to checkout time.

Wonderful vacation house for our family

Our August 11-18, 2012 vacation spent in this lovely home was about as perfect as it can be. House was immaculate...beds super comfortable..our own private beach..a huge lovely yard with blooming flowers and butterflies galore, bikes, kayaks, games..you name it. We spent many hours on the great screen porch and in the calm Chesapeake Bay...from 70 year olds to a 2 year old...with all ages in between The owners have thought of everything and are so easy to work with. I cannot recommend this lovely spot highly enough.

Beautiful Views

We had a wonderful time staying here for my Mom's 75th birthday. We were surprised at how quiet of a town Reedville is, but it was absolutely perfect for our getaway. It was so peaceful sitting on the platform overlooking the bay. Our kids had fun beating the adults at ping pong. We enjoyed the kayaks, and saw some dolphins while we were enjoying our time staring out at the water. Tom was super responsive and so accommodating. Highly recommend.

Amazing, spacious home. Breathtaking scenery.

I honestly can't say enough good things about our stay. I brought a group of 9 women for a weekend retreat and it was PERFECT. The house was even bigger than I thought it would be-- so much comfortable space! I especially loved all the sun room and porch seating. The view was gorgeous!! Whether it was rainy, foggy, or sunny, there were incredible views overlooking the bay. Our host, Tom, was amazing-- allowed us flexible check in times, which was perfect with so many out of town guests! We had one issue with the dishwasher, which he was quick to respond to. I would stay here again in a heart beat. Many of the guests I brought said the same. I HIGHLY RECOMMEND THIS BEAUTIFUL BAY HOME.

Beautiful Home, great for family gatherings

We had a wonderful stay at this gorgeous home. The owners have truly thought of every last detail to accommodate guests who stay here. This is a great place for kids and the beach/water and yard toys are abundant including kayaks, bikes, sand toys, floats, and life jackets are provided for you. The swing set outside is also great for evening play. The home is quite spacious and we were able to gather at the large dining table and outside patio table for our family meals. The game room is something with both a ping pong and foosball table. In addition tons of books and games are also provided. We really enjoyed our stay and will surely be returning as well as recommending this home to our friends. A wonderful get-away by the bay! Thank you again Tom and Laura for your hospitality.

Spectacular place with amenities and space for large family.

We travelled to Reedville, VA for a burial of the patriarch of the family at his family plot. Little did we know that the house we would use would be the perfect place for all 12 of us to be able to walk through this time together. The views were amazing and picturesque, specifically at sunrise. The open space was perfect for gathering with adequate seating for all. We loved the fireplace, game room (well the teens did), the back porch, the ability to use the bicycles, the rooms were perfect amount for 12 people to sleep in beds, the kitchen worked for our needs (primarily breakfast) and just the calm peaceful feelings the house gave off was again perfect for us as we took in this final goodbye. We recommend, if you're looking to find a beautiful home for a large family away from any hustle and bustle, choose this home in Reedville. It's about 45 mins away from some of the other waterfront towns with great restaurants and views. Or just stay at the house/cook on the grill, and enjoy the waterfront relaxation.

Beautiful Home in Beautiful Setting

Our multigenerational family stayed at this property for almost a week and everyone agreed it was one of the best homes we’ve stayed in as a group. Everyone left feeling relaxed and refreshed. The actual home was well-equipped for a group, comfortable, and had plenty of room for everyone to either gather in the main areas, or to spread out for alone time. A lot of thought has been put into making sure that everything needed to live within a group in one home is there, from updated, ample and comfortable furniture, to plenty of kitchen/diningware, to games and activities for those who want it, to an extra fridge because feeding a large group requires a lot of food! The outdoor spaces and the setting is the real draw, though… so many comfortable and peaceful seating areas throughout the property, the shade of the trees, the beach… it was perfect. We most enjoyed kayaking and floating around in the water (which is pretty calm and shallow most of the time), lounging on the deck overlooking the bay, sunning on the back patio, and watching the kids run around playing hide and seek and catching fireflies among the trees. Communication with the owner when necessary was easy, and he was responsive to any questions we had. We didn’t do much traveling in the area (we really just wanted to hang out together at the house), but grocery stores are 20-30 minutes away, and there are good restaurants within the same distance. We’d definitely return!

Very comfortable with great yard for kids

Tom really came to our aid this labor day as our first VRBO rental (not through Tom of course) had a major septic issue. We contacted Tom and he had the house ready for us in a few hours. We were unfortunately there after labor day so the town had little going on. We did have some trouble finding available restaurants during the week but this is not a problem if you love to cook or are there in the summer. The house is very comfortable with a play area and a living room area that accommodated us (two couples and a 2 year old). The 2 year old loved the playset outside and the grass was very nice. I enjoyed having the house set back a bit from the beach. The beach is tiny so be prepared for that as well as the occasional odor which I believe comes from a nearby fish or crab plant. This is a well maintained home with privacy and a great host. We would surely go back.

Beyond Expectations!

This was a perfect vacation for our multigenerational family of nine, with so many well-thought-out rooms and places to spread out. The tweens loved the bunkroom and game room, while the sunroom became our puzzle nook. The back deck, Adirondack chairs, and waterfront deck became favorites for reading or observing the beach fun. The kitchen is well-equipped and the bedrooms spacious and comfortable. The house, the property, and the view are even more spectacular in person. We appreciated the slower pace of this rural area and felt like we hit the jackpot with this property! The private stretch of beach was a highlight, and we had fun swimming, boating, and crabbing. The backyard shed was filled with beach chairs, floats, and yard games. No issues with fish smells or jellyfish. Thoughtful neighbors alerted us to a rocket launch one of the days we were there, and we enjoyed watching it from around the campfire that evening. We loved our dinners in town at Captain Crab (twice!) and Reedville Market. We ventured farther to Horn Harbor Restaurant and the Chesapeake Restaurant at Tides Inn on nights when those in town were closed. (Check hours in advance to plan ahead) No meal was complete without a stop at Chitterchat’s for homemade ice cream! A final foodie shout-out to Fawn’s Delectables Cafe in town. Fawn kept the goodies coming all week long! She and her staff were so accommodating and lovely to interact with, and the café itself is a warm, inviting space. Highly recommend!

Beautiful Property & Views

The property is very spacious with a beautiful view of the water, gorgeous sunrises and moon rises, with lots of comfortable seating outdoors, a great firepit and a shed full of recreational equipment for big and small! Be aware that occasionally there is a fishy odor coming from a nearby processing plant that fills the air, though brief. We had a few things that needed attention and the owner was very responsive and helpful and even had something repaired while we were there by a very nice handyman. We had a big job of cleaning the grill but I'm sure that's because the last renters did not do it, unfortunately. It's a great size house for family with all the necessary amenities and more, and we enjoyed our week.

Fantastic getaway

It was perfect. 3 generations of my family were able to all come together from NY, MA, NC, and CO. The property is a bit remote, but we were able to find what we needed, including emergency brake repairs (Kilmarnock Auto Clinic) and charter fishing in the bay (Dog Days Fishing). The house and property are ideal for gatherings. We used a sun room for doing puzzles, the large dining table for most meals, the fire pit for evenings, and the paddle board, kayaks and bikes (or our feet) when we wanted some alone time. The private beach was a huge hit with our pre-teen twin daughters. Communication with the host was easy and effective.

Best Family Beach House Ever!

The Chesapeake Bay Beach House was the perfect location for our three generation reunion, Grandparents and Grandkids (and their parents)! The house was even better than the posting, extremely clean and well equipped, and spacious for our group of 13. Whenever eight grandchildren got to be too much, we all went to the beach for "swimming" and sand castle making and kayaking, water heals everything! The huge, private sandy beach gave us room to spread out, and the shallow water was great for young kids. Tom was responsive to our questions ("where is this light switch?" and "where can I find a spare light bulb?"). He is not ready to sell the home to us (we are ready to move in!), so we will have to start planning our next visit! Bring sunscreen and some bug spray. Don't bring your best bathing suit if you come in July, there was some red algae in the bay water that stained some things. Best beach vacation ever!

Great family spot!

We had an amazing vacation! The house is beautiful, spacious, and very child friendly. The huge yard was great for the kids to run around. There were yard games available to keep everyone busy and having fun when we were not down at the beach. Great fire pit with wonderful view of the water for the nightly s’mores! The large bbq grill and gorgeous deck allowed us to dine outside multiple times. The beach area has a nice amount of sand that remains even when the tide is in. The water was warm and is nice and shallow for those families with small children like ours. The owners provide kayaks with the rental, and we also rented paddle boards for a very reasonable additional cost. There were plenty of life vests of all sizes available and other floating lounge rafts that were great! We would definitely plan another stay here!

A lovely spot

We rented the home to celebrate our 40th wedding anniversary; time alone and then the arrival of our daughters and their growing families. The house has so many unique areas, places to watch TV while others sleep in, a fantastic view of the Bay. The owners were always quick to respond to any inquiry and had one of the most efficient check in/check out processes possible. Its a memory chock full of the very best.

About the host

Host profile image
We live in Northern Virginia but visit the Northern Neck as often as our schedule allows.

Why they chose this property

We found an older beachhouse on a beautiful bayfront piece of property in a rural location only a couple of hours from our primary home. Some imagination and renovations brought the house back to life as a great gathering spot for family and friends.

What makes this property unique

A typical summer week is spent boating, fishing, sailing, roasting marshmallows, swimming, kayaking, paddle boarding, playing volleyball and bocce, birdwatching, crabbing --all without leaving the property! Throw in some golf, visits to nearby wineries, museums, and farmers markets, and you have a perfect recipe for a great vacation!!
