Retreat

The cottage was a perfect get-away. The host was quickly responsive to our questions by text. For our stay in mid-October, it was like our own cozy world. The rooms are decorated in a beachy way, but there were plenty of blankets too. Kitchen was well-stocked, with full size stove and fridge. It was chilly, but the Bay was still beautiful, and sunsets filled the whole horizon. We even ate on the porch one night, at the full-sized table to watch as it went down

Perfect Getaway

This was a wonderful short vacation for us. The house is attractive and has everything that is needed for a comfortable stay. A perfect space for a couple. The area is also fun to explore....Chincoteague, Cape Charles, fun restaurants and wineries are all within easy reach. The water is beautiful and the white sandy beach very private. We really enjoyed the screened in porch as well as the awesome Adirondack rockers in the gazebo, just steps away from the beach. This was a very relaxing, enjoyable vacation spot.

Relaxing vacation

Excellent cottage in a quiet remote neighborhood in Exmore Va. It has its own beach on the bay with a pavilion for shade. Great screened in porch to watch the sunset every evening. We stayed for a week and had a great time. Highly Reccomend!

Great Getaway

The cottage was just as described. We had a peacefully relaxing week away from the maddening crowds. We were basically the only people around. The sunsets were very pretty. We enjoyed sitting on the beach, under the pavillion, and on the back porch. We saw lots of critters like dolphin or porpoises (not sure which they were). They would go up the coast early each morning. We also saw lots of fish, skates / rays, some jellyfishes, and hermit crabs. We would certainly recommend this cottage for those thay enjoy silence and solitude. Jenifer was very responsive (almost immedaitely) to any qjestions we had.

Beach Cottage

We truly enjoyed our stay in Exmore. The cottage was just enough for us and our 2 children. The beach and the water were clean and the sunsets were amazing. It was quiet and the location of about an hour from Chincoteague and Norfolk was great for day trips. We had a wonderful stay here.

Family getaway

Perfect location for our quiet, relaxing family getaway! Making memories with my kids on the same beach I frequented as a child with my family. Beach access during high and low tide, delightful sandbars, amazing sunsets. The cottage is perfect for a small family, nicely updated, cozy, air conditioned (!), with a large screened in porch for family meals together and game night, an open air back deck for watching sunsets if the mosquitos aren't too bad. The outdoor shower makes for easy clean up after a day at the beach with kids. You won't regret staying here!

A little slice of heaven

This was our families 2nd time visiting this Silver Beach cottage and it was an amazing visit. All the upgrades that were made to the house were fantastic…just what it needed. We spent our days either fishing in the bay or enjoying the fabulous private beach. And spent our evenings relaxing and watching the sunset. We can’t wait to return!

Another perfect trip

This was a return visit for our family, as we stayed here last year -- see our previous review as we're trying to not repeat info. The improvements made since last year were perfect. The updates in the kitchen made it far more functional. The stone walkway to the outdoor shower was a great addition. The flooring inside adds to the beach feel. And the new look in the main bedroom made the room more accessible. This host knows their property and made all the right moves to make it even better. Switching the placement of the couches made using the reclining couch easier with the youngest running around. Having hot and cold water at the outside shower was a nice touch. It's big enough that if you have small kids, you can get in with them and rinse them off, and the bench seat was perfect spot for them to put their toys down while you're rinsing them. There's beautiful sand, great water -- almost always calm and clear for a good distance out (we were in following Beryl, so we did have some early churning). It's secluded so not only are nights quiet, but days are too. Gotta hype the beach chairs and towels again (worth repeating, as not every listing provides this level of quality). We're looking forward to another visit next summer.

Beach vacation

We enjoyed another vacation at this little cottage by the bay. Having your own stretch of uncrowded beach space is so nice. And all the new renovations made to the cottage were greatly enjoyed! We enjoyed some great sunsets! The owner is always very helpful and quick to reply with any questions we had…

True Rest & Relaxation

My small family sincerely enjoyed this beach cottage. It was just what the doctor ordered: a serene getaway off the beaten path! We wanted to be by the water but not on a beach packed with people on summer break. I don't think this beach would be packed any time of year because it's a private, residential type area. I was able to sit in the beautiful screened porch with my 10 week old daughter and bond while we listened to the waves lapping the shore. My husband worked while we were there and had a great wifi connection. We sincerely enjoyed our family time at this cottage and would recommend it to anyone wanting a break from 'fast pace' life. We saw a bald eagle fly over the ocean on our first morning there - what a treat!

Awesome Get Away on the Bay!

What's not to LOVE about this property! Charming, cozy cottage; very comfortable; well organized kitchen with everything you'd need to cook if you'd like to stay in. We really enjoyed the quick access to the private beach...a 30 second walk away! The screened-in porch and outdoor shower are such wonderful features! Our host was very helpful and has truly prepared such an inviting place that all ages could appreciate. We'd gladly return! A great place to relax during any season!

A lovely cottage at the beach. Very clean, looked freshly renovated and very comfortable. Amazing view of the water. We sat on the couch and just enjoyed the sunset every night. Great screened in porch and a 1 minute walk to the beach. We really enjoyed how quiet and peaceful it was. Highly recommend!!

Perfect vacation

This was a perfect place for us and our kids. There are TVs in each bedroom but we didn't use them much. The yard, the beach and the bay were all we needed. The beach is a gradual slope into the water and it takes a long time to get to depths like you'd expect in the bay. With smaller kids, this is perfect -- they can be in the water and aren't latched onto you. The sandy bottom makes for solid footing, too, while watching the kids play in the clear water. We had our young son here, who is not yet a swimmer, and watched his confidence grow each day in the water. Thanks to Virginia summers, the sunsets were different -- and spectacular -- every night. The screened porch is spacious and comfortable. The fans are perfect to conquer the humid days. We played games and did puzzles out there at night – the game and puzzle selection is a nice touch. As are the beach chairs. And the towels – oh, the towels. They are plentiful and nice quality, a great asset for the stay because, well, you're at the beach. Beds were comfortable with nice linens. We brought some supplies, but there were ample coffee items, and it seemed like anything we brought for cooking was also in the house somewhere. We grilled several times, using the stove seemingly only to boil water for tea. There wasn't a need for communication from the host, but she was pleasant and attentive. Her guide to the cottage should be a template for others. This was exactly what we were looking for and we can't wait to return.

Perfect Little Beach House

Perfect little “beach house” for our family. We couldn’t have asked for much more except a longer stay! The kids absolutely loved the beach and sand bar and the fishing was good too! A short drive from a few local places so it was really quiet. A short drive to Cape Charles too! We can’t wait to come back again!

Beautiful Views

It was a great cabin that was perfect for the 4 of us. We enjoyed sitting on the back porch and watching the boats go by. Beautiful views. My only suggestion would be to add a hose to rinse the sand off after coming back from the beach. Also, the outdoor shower is nice, but warm water would be a plus. A couple of the blinds were busted, which allowed the monsters to see in, but that's an easy fix. Otherwise, everything else was perfect and we had a wonderful week and will certainly be back.
