Holiday rentals with a fireplace in Rappahannock River

I gave this 5 stars, and it deserves it. It's a full basement, nearly full kitchen in the bar area. It's decorated like a cool rec room. ( Looks like a fancy, high end "man cave" - low beautiful lighting, a brand new ping pong table, winsporting, beer and wine decorations) But look at the pictures. It's not " cozy". It's cool.

We loved it! It’s a very nice and quiet area for a perfect weekend getaway at the lake. Of course, we were sold on the idea of having a private dock to use as well. House has plenty of space and we had a lot of fun with their different puzzles and board games available. Zack and Kate are very responsive and friendly hosts.

A great stay on the river. The kitchen was well equipped and the rest of the house was comfortable. The screened in porch and access to the dock/beach/river was our favorite part. Our dogs were in HEAVEN. The location is rather remote, so recommend bringing any food you'll want as there are no close stores or restaurants.

Wonderful stay! The location was perfect—just a short walk to shops, restaurants, and local markets. We really enjoyed exploring the neighborhood, and getting into the city was easy with plenty of nearby transportation options. A great spot for both relaxing and sightseeing. Highly recommend!

I’m pretty sad that I don’t own this house. Pictures don’t it justice, and the pics are incredible. The house, the cows, the coziness….I’ve already shared this house to a few friends! Kayla was very responsive throughout our stay. 5 stars all around!

TL;DR: this was easily one of our favorite Airbnb experiences. We absolutely cannot wait to come back. We spent a week at Evan's cottage for my wife's birthday. Our party included 5 adults, 2 small pups, and an infant and there was more than enough room for all of us to stay comfortably. Evan was an incredible host- promptly responsed to all of our inquires, and regularly checked in to make sure if we needed anything. The house itself. Hot damn. It is stunning. The landscaping envelopes you in lush greens and blooming flowers, the view overlooking the Chesapeake is amazing, and the house is filled with every amenity you could imagine. (Huge shoutout to all the baby gear - as new parents, this was a lifesaver). The beds we're cozy, the kitchen was *stocked*, and the interior design was ::chef's kiss:: While the immediate area (10ish min drive) has everything covered for basics, you're only a quick trip into Annapolis to get anything else you may need for your trip.

My family and I stayed here for a week for our family vacation. We are a group of 8 (6 adults and 2 kids) and there was plenty of room for all of us. We barely left the house because with the beautiful view, dock, beach area, canoe, kayaks, hot tub, game room/ library, corn hole, and fire pit we all had plenty to keep us entertained. Everyone loved Mary & Shelly’s place, and it provided the perfect space for us to enjoy the river and each other’s company!

This home is just as advertised...it is very large, great for several families vacationing together! Our group was small so we didn't even make use of all of the space. The house is right on Tanner Creek which is just beautiful for sitting on the dock and relaxing, paddleboarding and kayaking, birdwatching, etc. It's also about a mile from Lookout Point State Park which is absolutely gorgeous. Restaurants and grocery stores are few and far between in this area, so it's a good idea to bring your own food, and the kitchen is well stocked with pots and pans for cooking. If you are looking for a place to relax in a calm and beautiful setting, this is it!

Kendall was a great host. She took care of what I needed and was friendly and responsive. The house and location were great! Very private and perfect if you have a dog. We were very pleased. Thanks Kendall!

Amy and her place were lovely for our family of 4. With two littles it worked very well and Amy even had toys for us- we also used her provided pack n play and some baby essentials. King Bed was extremely comfy, moderately firm. Shower was very nice. Cozy, comfy, had everything we needed. Amy was very responsive and helpful. We would gladly come back! Thanks Amy!!

I had a great stay here! I really loved that I was able to find a place that allowed me to travel with my dog! Great location, very close to everything in DC and great places in Arlington. 10/10 recommend!

My husband and I loved the location and house! We loved it so much we came back a couple days later when we drove through the area again. Lovely town and location. Will be back.

Really loved that it was such a kid-friendly space (e.g., bunk bed, pack n' play, crib). It made traveling with a toddler and 3mo a little less stressful! It was well stocked with linens, bathroom supplies, and kitchen supplies, which is always a plus too!

Stayed here for two nights, Micheal was an impeccable host. The place was just as described, near to everything, and very comfortable. Would definitely stay here again in a heartbeat.

I came back just a few days later because I could not stop thinking about this place. The gas fireplace once again created the perfect cozy environment after long workdays. The unit is not only beautiful but also perfectly equipped for an extended stay. Everything I needed to feel settled and focused was already there. The hosts were just as wonderful the second time. Still one of my favorite stays in DC.

Great lighting and solid location, parking was a little tough with construction in the area but the apartment was perfect

This is truly one of the most beautiful homes I have ever been inside. The host was beyond helpful and made me feel very welcome. if I had a complaint it would be having to check out. This stay was truly worth every dollar spent

We had a wonderful stay celebrating family birthdays! The house was spacious and had plenty of bathrooms. It was decorated beautifully for the holidays. We especially enjoyed the porches overlooking the spectacular views!

We were a group of three couples who wanted our own bedroom and private bathroom to retreat to after enjoying busy days and evenings around Colonial Williamsburg. We really enjoyed the location of Kingsmill and all of the spacious condo amenities!

This place and our stay exceeded our expectations! We really appreciated all the deliberate attention to detail with big necessities and small conveniences. The bathroom in the master bedroom was phenomenal and we loved being able to play music from the fridge! There was also very adequate sleeping accommodations. It was overall a great experience.

This home is so tastefully decorated and comfortable. Even though it's an older home with original wood on floors and stairs, the wall finishes looks fairly fresh and the kitchen is all upgraded with current amenities. I was pleasantly surprised that it had a large backyard with lawn furniture, grass and trees. The sun room was so comfortable for seating and playing cards, and the office had a nice futon-type bed that folded out for extra sleeping space. The primary bedroom, walk in closet, and bath are super large and beautiful. Lots of restaurants were within a mile of the house, including a Trader Joe's. The only drawback was car sounds at night from Washington Blvd but we got used to it. During our reservation process, Aman addressed my many questions quickly and fully, particularly in terms of what they had for my 1 year old grandson (toys, high chair, port a crib). During our stay, we also communicated easily a few times as questions came up.

It was a quiet and lovely space with a ton of amenities (pool, mini golf) and close to downtown Williamsburg and local and state parks. The kitchen was great! Some of the other appliances inside were less quiet (vacuum, washing machine, dryer), but it was nice to have the appliances!

We had a great time at Bo’s villa! The pool and game room let the kids entertained and the porch views were great for the adults! Host was proactive and made sure we were comfortable right away. Also, had plenty of recommendations for dining and activities. If we are ever back in the area, we will be booking with Bo!

What an incredible stay! The home was spotlessly clean—truly one of the cleanest Airbnbs we’ve ever stayed in. Every detail was pristine, which made it feel so welcoming and comfortable. It was also beautifully and tastefully decorated, creating a cozy yet stylish atmosphere throughout. The outdoor space was just as impressive—peaceful, private, and perfect for relaxing. We especially loved the fenced-in hot tub area, which made it easy to unwind while our dogs stayed safe nearby. And the sauna was such a cool and unexpected bonus! The location is secluded enough to feel like a true escape, yet close to wineries, restaurants, and everything else you might need. Communication with the host was excellent from start to finish. We had the most relaxing weekend with family and friends—this place is a true gem. We can’t wait to return!
