My children enjoyed the extra fluffy blankets in the closet in each room. The kitchen was well stocked with all the items we needed to make a few meals in the house. There were games, puzzles, and books for rainy days. The view was gorgeous. We enjoyed beautiful sunsets and rises. For those going to Williamsburg or Busch Gardens make sure to account for the ferry ride in your travel time. We found we needed to add about a 1/2 hour to drive times. The ferry was a very unique experience. We got to watch a baby osprey being rescued by a kayaker while on the ferry. ##### Erin W. Stayed 3 nights in Jul 2024 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Kelli S.

The cottage is located just a ferry ride away from Jamestown and colonial Williamsburg. My only advice would be to really pay attention to the ferry schedule. LOL! Cuz if you miss it especially at night you'll be sitting there for a while. Our hosts were very informative when I had a few questions and although there's not many stores in Surrey which is where the cottage is located there are major grocery stores just a ferry ride and a few miles away. I highly recommend a very nice dinner at the Aberdeen Barn restaurant. The food is excellent! Our stay will be a memorable one! 😊 Thank you again to our host and hostess. ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐🙏 ##### Kelli S.

Jul 8, 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Cute house, very clean, a lot of steps to beach My husband and I stayed here without three children who ranged from 10 to 16 years old. The house had everything we needed and We love the view. The walk up and down from the beach was tough but we knew to expect it because it was shown in the pictures. We enjoyed how close it was to the ferry for Jamestown and enjoy the quietness of the area. Our only disappointment was not knowing that the river was shallow in this area. So despite going very far off shore, we were never much deeper than waist high. However, we made the best of it and my kids still had a great time. They used the paddleboard and the kayaks and really loved swimming in the water . We do advise that you wear water shoes as the first few feet of shoreline have a lot of shells and you are at risk of cutting your feet (My daughter’s shoe fell off and she did get a cut from a shell). We very much enjoyed our stay and the hosts were very responsive to any questions we had. If you are looking for a quiet place to go, this is a really great place for the money! ##### Beth W.

Seuls points négatifs: salle de bain/ toilette vraiment petite, par contre fonctionnant très bien. Et les lits faisaient 130 cm de large( après vérification!)... Un peu étroit pour des couples.

If you like a beautiful water view, this is a wonderful place to stay! Even though the cottage is older, it is well-maintained and the owners have thought of everything needed to make your stay comfortable. The house was impressively clean too. We enjoyed every minute, even every trip across the river on the ferry! (I was concerned it would get old, but it did not.) Definitely bring water shoes of some sort for the beach as there are many shells. We saw deer several times and two eagles. It is a very peaceful location and A.C. and Linda are wonderful hosts.

The ferry made getting to and from Williamsburg very easy and fun. It is 40-50 minutes point to point (cottage to Busch gardens) depending on if you time to ferry right and traffic.

Stayed 7 nights in Aug 2023 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Allison M. Aug 6, 2023 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### James River Relaxation This is a cute old cottage that has obviously been well cared for over the years. It is in the perfect location for both relaxing on the beach and visiting Williamsburg, Jamestown, Yorktown, Busch Gardens and Water Country. We had a great time kayaking, fishing, searching for shark teeth, swimming and watching the bald eagles and osprey. The enclosed, air conditioned porch was wonderful! On rainy days my kids enjoyed all the puzzles and Williamsburg-opoly. A.C. and Linda were so helpful - if we had any trouble they came to help within minutes! One night the grill wouldn’t light so A.C. came with a lighter - problem solved, or so we thought! He was back about 30 min later with a new grill! One word of advice - bring water shoes! We made good use of the first aid kit we found in the bathroom after the kids cut their feet on shells multiple times. ##### Allison M.

The views are stunning, with unforgettable sun rises over the river and so many beautiful birds including bald eagles to view from the deck. The little private beach was perfect with kayaks, chairs, and an umbrella there for us to use! We loved the calm water and hunting for seashells... we even caught and released a few fish which was exciting! We loved the local restaurants, and the girls were so excited to experience the ferry over to Jamestown/Williamsburg and the water park! The hosts were very communicative and the place was extremely clean with tons of amenities that made us feel right at home... right down to a stack of beach towels and a little bag to take to the beach! We hope to come back to experience this delightful cottage in Surry County VA again and again. Thank you!!! ##### Jennifer L.
