A true No Drama Zone I want to explain, more in depth, the property and things you can expect. The property is located on the Eastern Shore of Virginia and is surrounded by Salt Water. We run WELL WATER at this property and there are times when it will smell a little funny, because of the minerals in the water. The water is treated and not dangerous. Well water actually does have a better taste, but when you are not use to it, it is strange. We also have BUGS/ INSECTS around this property and I ask that you bring BUG REPELLENT with you. There will be bugs found at the beach, so do not be surprised if you see them. We do treat the yard and apartment! You will see mosquitoes, flies, gnats and spiders, insects that are found everywhere you go. This is a Private apartment with 1 bath, 1 queen bed, 1 Trundle Bed with Two Twin Mattresses, stove, microwave, dishes, pots and pans. All the comforts of home! (AND THEN SOME) Wash and Dryer, Dish Network TV, WIFI, Internet! As I have stated....YOU have your own parking space! This is the second driveway by the garage! You will see a sign at the entrance that says "Thelma's Dawn Getaway". You want to drive straight in and this is the room where you will be staying! There is also a sign right at the window that also says "Thelma's Dawn Getaway" This is where you will be parking. I can usually be found on the back deck if you should need me for anything! You have free rein of the property and can come and go as you please. The kayaks are here for you to use, as well as the fishing poles! I do ask that you take a life jacket with you if you will be on the water. It is a safety issue and I want all of my guests to be safe. If you decide to take anything to the beach to use, please return it where you got it when you are done. The life jackets, fishing poles, paddles and umbrellas are found one the back porch beside the garden hose. We do have beach umbrella's for you to use. Please return them back where you get it. The refrigerator in the apartment is a little small, but there is a standard refrigerator in the laundry room. This is available for you as well. The bait for fishing will be found in the freezer section of this fridge. Yes, you can wash and dry your clothes while you are here. You also have a choice to dry the clothes in the dryer or, (my favorite) on the line and get that clean and fresh scent! There is a key that is available to you so you can lock the door if you leave. It is a very safe place, but you may feel you need to lock the door. This is fine. Just let me know! Grills on site to be used by you. It is a propane and charcoal grill! There is also a smoker! There have been MANY GREAT MEALS cooked on this grill and I am sure many more are coming! There is a golf cart, that is (LEGAL TO DRIVE ON THE ROAD) available for you to use while you are here! As you have seen in many reviews, it is one of the most loved things at Thelma's Dawn! It is here for YOU! Of course there has to be a catch in operating the golf cart. You must be at least 15 years old to be permitted to drive it by yourself, UNLESS there is an adult riding with you! These are not my rules, but the rules of the community. I like to load up the golf cart when I go fishing. I put the poles, cooler, bait, drinks and everything I will need to sit down on the beach for a long time. When I go fishing, I mean business! The outside of the property is a 1&1/2 acre property. We have volleyball, horseshoes, CORN HOLE, (yes, I said it....CORN HOLE) and other games that you can play.....Just ask us! Remember....we are here to make your vacation as special and memory making as we possibly can! We even have TENTS and AIR MATTRESSES that can be used in the event you have more people that want to join you on your vacation! There is a 2 person, 4 person and a 3 ROOM TENT! This thing is BIG! Then you have to remember all of the FISHING, KAYAKING, SWIMMING, PRIVATE BEACH, BEAUTIFUL SUNSETS, BONFIRES and so much more! This is YOUR TIME!! I want you to LOVE IT HERE! So I have been asked how I came up with the name "THELMA'S DAWN". Well, my mother passed away from cancer in 2007\. Mom was 68 years old when she was called home. I had a sister, Dawn, who was called home at age 28\. She was murdered in January1988\. It was fitting to name this beautiful place after the two of them. ## Property amenities ### Beach - On the beach - Beach loungers ### Internet - Available in the apartment: Free WiFi ### Parking and transportation -

We had an amazing time on our weekend stay. Christi is an awesome host who really goes over and above to be sure you have a great time. Loved launching the Japanese lanterns over the bay with her.The apartment had everything we needed and then some and the location can't be beat. The only downside was the weekend was too short!! Hoping we can get back for a longer stay soon! ##### Gregory M. Stayed 2 nights in Nov 2015 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Tammy B. Oct 24, 2018 #### A special Gem on the Bay We had a great time at Thelma’s Dawn getaway. Beautiful views and excellent accommodations. The owners make you feel like Family and old Friends. Such a cozy and comfortable home away from home. The beach is right at your back door, how can you ask for more. I can’t wait to visit again soon! T Blair - VA ##### Tammy B. Stayed 2 nights in Oct 2018 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Verified traveller Nov 17, 2021 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### AMAZING VACATION with amazing people The host is the most friendly, helpful, fun person We have ever come across. It was like being part of the family and still alone on vacation with the love of my life. So many fun activities like fishing , golf carts, sports, and bonfires right on the beach. We’re definitely coming back as soon as possible and I’d recommend this to anyone, couple, family, that wants to escape to a private paradise with a home feeling ##### Verified traveller Stayed 3 nights in Nov 2021 ## Expedia's Latest Trends ### Hotels > [The Summit at Massanutten Resort by Tripforth](https://www.expedia.ca/Harrisonburg-Hotels-The-Summit-At-Massanutten-Resort-By-Tripforth.h61523678.Hotel-Information) > > [Private Hot Tub and Resort Amenities Included!](https://www.expedia.ca/McGaheysville-Hotels-Private-Hot-Tub-And-Resort-Amenities-Included.h74588564.Hotel-Information) > > [Fox Trot Cabin ](https://www.expedia.ca/Meadows-Of-Dan-Hotels-Fox-Trot-Cabin-Located-1-Mile-Off-Of-Blue-Ridge-Parkway-Mile-Marker-174.h27354316.Hotel-Information) > > [Ski Hotels in Banff](https://www.expedia.ca/Banff-Hotels-Ski-Hotel.0-0-d10550-tSkiHotel.Travel-Guide-Filter-Hotels) > > [La Quinta Inn & Suites by Wyndham Manassas Va-Dulles Airport](https://www.expedia.ca/Manassas-Hotels-La-Quinta-Inn-Suites-By-Wyndham-Manassas-Historic-District.h50337509.Hotel-Information) > > [Smith Mountain Lake House w/ 2-story Boat Dock!](https://www.expedia.ca/Moneta-Hotels-Smith-Mountain-Lake-Vacation-Rental-W-Boat-Dock.h98548045.Hotel-Information) > > [Mountain Lake Lodge](https://www.expedia.ca/Blacksburg-Hotels-Mountain-Lake-Lodge.h12055.Hotel-Information) > > [We are excited to offer this wonderful property, Fireside Lodge, a premier property offered through Vacay Away!](https://www.expedia.ca/McGaheysville-Hotels-We-Are-Excited-To-Offer-This-Wonderful-Property.h51278512.Hotel-Information) > > [2 Bedroom, 2 Bath Villa at Marriott's Manor Club - Ford's Colony: Premium Resort](https://www.expedia.ca/Williamsburg-Hotels-2-Bedroom.h48627783.Hotel-Information) > > [Ramada by Wyndham Northern Grand Hotel & Conference Centre](https://www.expedia.ca/Fort-St-John-Hotels-Northern-Grand-Hotel.h52942.Hotel-Information) > > [Hilton Vacation Club The Historic Powhatan Williamsburg](https://www.expedia.ca/Williamsburg-Hotels-The-Historic-Powhatan-Resort-By-Diamond-Resorts.h864071.Hotel-Information) > > [Tysons Corner Suites, A Baymont by Wyndham](https://www.expedia.ca/Vienna-Hotels-Tysons-Corner-Suites.h91092674.Hotel-Information) > > [Capeville Cottage - modern comfort close to Cape Charles!](https://www.expedia.ca/Capeville-Hotels-Capeville-Cottage.h95706422.Hotel-Information) > > [Massanutten Resort by Tripforth](https://www.expedia.ca/Harrisonburg-Hotels-Massanutten-Resort-By-Tripforth.h44126555.Hotel-Information) > > [The Hungry Trout](https://www.expedia.ca/Lake-Placid-Hotels-The-Hungry-Trout.h11039975.Hotel-Information) > > [Hotels in Edinburgh](https://www.expedia.ca/Edinburgh-Hotels.d6069845.Travel-Guide-Hotels) ### Flights > [KLM](https://www.expedia.ca/KLM-Flights.cKL.Travel-Guide-Airlines) > > [Flights from Rio Hato (RIH) to Tocumen (PTY)](https://www.expedia.ca/lp/flights/rih/pty/rio-hato-to-panama-city) > > [Flights from Faro (FAO) to Lisbon (LIS)](https://www.expedia.ca/lp/flights/fao/lis/faro-to-lisbon) > > [Flights from Lethbridge, AB (YQL-Lethbridge County) to Saskatoon, SK (YXE-John G.
