Very nice, clean, dry, and comfortable.
We enjoyed our stay very much. The cottage is in a good location - central to both the water front (point) and the services of the town. The place is very clean and dry. The interior features wooden floors, classic trim and framing, and pleasant interior decorating with a touch of class. A first floor restroom, a bright kitchen, and a laundry room provide practical convenience. Inviting and comfortable social areas are provided in a relatively large dining room and separate living room with carpeting, ample seating, and Cable TV & DVD player. The bath and three bedrooms are upstairs affording nice separation of space for privacy and social times. We found the host to be gracious, welcoming, and helpful. On the top of our list of nice cottages in the colonial beach region.

Old-fashioned Beach Vacation
Wonderful quaint cottage and location. Internet was not good, but the owner addressed that immediately. Jackie was available, very pleasant and extremely accommodating. Colonial Beach is not a hub for activities beyond the beach, but it was a great family time for puzzles & games on rainy days, beach/jet ski fun in the sun and just relaxing and talking. The wicker furniture on the front porch provided a great place for coffee and morning devotions for me while others slept in. It was perfect! I gave 4 stars only bc of the internet. Once that is corrected, it would get 5 stars. I'd highly recommend this rental.

Lovely Cottage
Our vacation was very relaxing. We had a great time. The only downside was the wifi didn't work so we didn't have a signal the whole time we were there. No cell phones, tablets or computers. We had to travel outside of the area to make calls. And with only 1 TV in the house it was interesting to say the least. So rest was what we all got. There at least be a landline in the house for emergencies. Thank you for having us.
