Amazing *SUNSETS* will be your daily show! We want to share our memory-making escape with other old house lovers.

While here, you’ll enjoy river life AND beach days with access to a private beach just a short walk or drive across street. The best of both worlds.

SUP boards and kayaks on site.

5 min. to quaint Reedville. Explore the Northern Neck from this restful oasis!

The space
Please note that after Easter, we are hosting on a 5 night minimum stay.

Your stay will include the nightly entertainment of basking in the pink and golden hours around the gorgeous *SUNSETS* of the Northern Neck!

Come in from the water or beach in time to pour a cocktail and enjoy the show. There is instant vacation relaxation in the glow of the Northern Neck's amazing sunsets from a wide view across Cockrell's Creek.

Coastal farmhouse c.1790 looks out to the harbor and daily boat parade to the historic fishing village of Reedville. Enjoy a shaded summer breeze under the ancient magnolia, play games in the yard, spot birds, and roast s'mores at the water's edge; all on 2 private acres.

Sandy launch for on-site five SUP boards (3 adult, 2 child) and two kayaks. Life vests also provided.

Beach is on the Chesapeake Bay and wonderful for a sandy beach day and big water swim without huge waves. During the weekdays almost no one is there. Beach chairs (4) and umbrella provided.

This special home is rooted in Reedville's fishing history but is outfitted for today's living. Explore the region from this comfortable oasis or stay put and relax on one of 3 porches, float, paddle, crab and fish off the dock.

We look at the Omega fishery boats and on rare occasion we smell the fish processing, typically at night when it happens. It’s all part of Reedville life!

House is on a private point of land and surrounded by water on three sides, 800 ft of water frontage. Amazing water views from every room.

This home is ideal for a large family or 2 families. There is queen bed with private bathroom downstairs and a king bedroom upstairs that shares the hall bath. Kids' wing upstairs includes huge bunk room and hang out space. Sofa downstairs pulls out to queen.

All upholstered furnishings/mattresses/bedding are new as of 2018-2019. House is very clean and updated while still exuding the charm that only older places have.

Are you a boater? Launch your boat at the newly renovated state boat launch, Shell Landing a few hundred yards from the house. Boat to four restaurants and a vineyard or fish the Chesapeake Bay. It's just five minutes from Shell Landing out to the bay or to quaint Reedville (by car or boat). Or, rent a pontoon boat at Smith Point Marina on the Little Wicomoco River.

Guest access
We require the full names and ages of all guests prior to the day of your arrival. Absolutely NO guests over the house max.
We typical deny a request for 10 adults because, although there are 8 beds, the bunk room does not offer adult privacy.

Neighborhood highlights

From this spot near Fleeton Point, the entire region is accessible for outings. Wineries along Rt. 200 on way to Kilmarnock (25 min) and Irvington, even a boat-up winery!

Nature trails at Hughlett Point Natural Preserve, and of course, historic destinations.

Reedville, 5 minutes by boat or car, has two great restaurants, an ice cream shop, and fisherman's museum.

Go fishing on a local charter boat or catch the Chesapeake Breeze to Tangier Island! Even if you are not on the boat to Tangier, you can watch it leave and return right from the house.

Our view of the harbor of Cockrell's Creek is wide and we enjoy the parade of boats, especially the temporary neighbors when a sailboat moors for the night right out back.

Lives in Richmond, Virginia
A childhood spent at the beach has led to a lifetime need for sand between my toes and close proximity to water. Our family has enjoyed the Northern Neck since 2005.
