Nestled along the iconic Coastal Highway, this restored 1960s motel has been reimagined as a luxurious three-suite hideaway. Inspired by the surrounding coastal woodlands and Tidewater heritage, the Foxtail Suite features three bedrooms with ensuite baths, a full kitchen, and inviting gathering spaces both indoors and out. I love giving guests a warm and easy experience from start to finish. I’m just a message or call away if you need anything—whether it’s a local restaurant tip, help with directions, or just a friendly chat about the area. Check-in is simple and flexible, and I’m happy to give you space to relax and enjoy your stay your own way. My goal is for you to feel completely at home during your stay. Located along Tidewater Trail in Caret, Virginia, this newly restored mid-century property offers comfort and privacy in a peaceful woodland setting. Each suite has its own private entrance, and guests enjoy free on-site parking just steps from their door. The property is conveniently located only minutes from the waterfront town of Tappahannock and the Rappahannock River. Directions: From Tappahannock, take Route 17 North (Coastal Highway) for about 6 miles. Make a U-turn into the mid-road median onto Tidewater Trail (Route 607), and the property will be on the right at 16338 Tidewater Trail. Look for the signage marking Fern and Forest. You'll have the entire suite to yourself. Please note that there are two other units connected to this property. The home has keyless entry and doorbell video surveillance with audio and video recording for security. Shared Laundry Room: There is a shared laundry room attached to this unit that the cleaners can also access. There is a unique passcode to get into the laundry room for guests and cleaners, which is different and therefore will keep your unit non-accessible without the prior passcode. The laundry room is also accessible from the rear of the building. Signs will direct you to the laundry room. 🌿 Fern & Forest Three-Bedroom Suite | Caret, Virginia KEY FEATURES: ⭐️ Three private bedrooms with ensuite bathrooms ⭐️Hot tub for relaxing evenings ⭐️Spa-style rain showers in every bathroom ⭐️ Full kitchen w/stainless steel appliances ⭐️ Smart TVs in every bedroom and living room ⭐️ In-Unit washer & dryer ⭐️Private brick patio with seating ⭐️Outdoor grill for dining al fresco ⭐️Fire pit for cozy nights under the stars ⭐️Hammock for peaceful downtime ⭐️ Children's toys, beds, linens, and kitchen supplies ✨ Suite Highlights The spacious Three-Bedroom Suite is perfect for families, couples, or groups seeking comfort and privacy.

We absolutely loved our time together at this cozy getaway and can't wait to go back! We played games, watched movies, made a fire, got in the hot tub, had snacks provided by Amy (so yummy, we felt so taken care of), enjoyed the cute matching robes and towel warmers. I even slept like a baby! We spent the entire next day exploring the town nearby and found so many things at the local stores. Such yummy breakfasts too! Cannot wait to go back (wish I were there right now honestly). ##### TiffanyS
