About this property

Spacious 1-level waterfront retreat w/ rec room, fenced yard. Big dogs welcome!

Paws & Reflect is a waterfront vacation haven that offers a blend of luxury and relaxation for dogs and their humans. The 1-level, 3,250-square-foot home features stunning views of the Little Wicomico River and Horse Pond, a well-appointed kitchen, spacious family gathering areas, 8-seater dining table and high-speed internet. The 1,200-square-foot recreation room has a pool table, 80s style video game, poker table, bar, full-size fridge and bathroom with a dog shower. It’s an ideal destination for creating cherished memories with friends, family and your beloved pooches (with $40 pet fee per stay for up to 2 dogs, any size).

Whether you're an active, outdoorsy family or friends gathering to unwind, with 300 feet of water frontage, Paws and Reflect has what you need! Outdoors, you can fish or kayak directly from the private dock, lounge in the hammock, roast marshmallows by the fire pit, sit under the covered gazebo or whip up a tasty meal at the dual fuel grill.

The backyard is fully fenced so your dogs can safely play and watch birds and other wildlife without worries of them going on an adventure off the property. Both the sliding door facing the water and the door from the primary bedroom lead to the fenced yard. There is also a bistro table and chairs on the deck outside the primary bedroom.

The one-story contemporary home has no stairs indoors. There is a ramp to access the home, making it easy for dogs or humans who have difficulty navigating stairs. It's also ideal when you're loading or unloading your belongings on move-in/move-out day.

The sheer size of the home allows everyone to spread out and enjoy their own space. There are sitting areas throughout the home for intimate conversations, watching sports, playing board games, reading a book or gazing at the water. There are dog crates and comfy resting spots throughout the home with plenty of natural light for catching an afternoon dog-nap in the sun.

If you have to work remotely, there's an adjustable desk for sitting or standing, monitor, laptop stand, keyboard and mouse for those Microsoft Teams calls you can't miss. There's high-speed internet throughout the home and four Roku TVs (three in the main house and one in the recreation room) for binge watching your favorite shows. The primary, queen and full bedrooms have electronic device charging outlets next to the bed.

Spacious Retro Recreation Room for All Ages

Unwind after a day of kayaking, fishing or exploring the Northern Neck in the spacious recreation center. Two of the bays in the detached garage have been converted into a heated/cooled play area for all ages.

Keep cold beverages and snacks in the full size refrigerator/freezer, watch sports or your favorite shows on the 75-inch Roku TV from the comfy leather couch or sit at the custom bar. Play pool at the 8-foot pool table. Show the kids what arcade games were like in the 80s at the tabletop gaming console with 40+ games. Challenge others for a game of poker at the 4-seater poker table equipped with poker chips and cards. There's a sound system with turntable for playing vinyl hits and a CD player. Check out our library of CDs, with selections from the 70s to 90s.

The recreation room also has a full bathroom. The shower is ideal for washing off the dog after a full day of swimming and playing to keep them from tracking dirt in the house.

A fabulous vacation house on Chesapeake Bay
We have spent summers around the Chesapeake Bay for the last 20 years. By far, this property is the best. The house provides ample space for a group of eight adults, including kitchen, dining, and recreation areas. The utilities and furniture are all top quality. We really enjoyed our week-long stay and look forward to coming back again.
Stayed 6 nights in Jun 2024

About the host

Hosted by Jay and Dawn Eischen

Host profile image
We are empty nesters who love to travel with our two big dogs. We know how difficult it is to find lodging that will accept dogs, especially when they’re big. Jay is a Realtor and Dawn is a public relations manager for a national veterinary care company. We have always wanted a home on the water where our family, friends and dogs could relax and unwind. We became hosts so other responsible dog parents could get away from their stressful lives back home and enjoy some peacefulness and serenity at the river.

Why they chose this property

We were drawn to Reedville because of it’s small-town charm and laid-back lifestyle. Our neighbors have been welcoming and gracious. Many of them are dog lovers as well and you’ll often see them walking along the quiet streets in our little corner of the county. They will stop and ask you how you’re doing and genuinely want to help in any way they can. We encourage you to venture into town and eat at the local restaurants, shop in the quant stores and immerse yourself in the slower pace of river living.

What makes this property unique

Paws and Reflect is all about slowing down and enjoying some quality time with the ones you love. We consider our dogs to be part of that equation. They comfort us when we’re sad and make us smile when we need to be reminded that life is a blessing. We have included spaces in the home where dogs enjoy lounging (A+ approved by our dogs).

We have equipped our home with the things that bring our family joy. The dining room table is big enough for 8 to seat comfortably. If you’re planning to cook a big feast, the kitchen is fully stocked with cooking supplies and there’s a buffet table for serving. If you have to work remotely, there’s a desk with monitor, keyboard, mouse and high-speed internet. The pool table, poker table and arcade games in the recreation room are a great way to enjoy some time with loved ones, especially if the weather isn’t ideal for outdoor activities. The property is spacious! There’s plenty of room for everyone to have some alone time as well.
