About this property

Private Beach and Beautiful Views

Welcome to White Stone in the beautiful Northern Neck of Virginia! Our house is located on Windmill Point, at the mouth of the Rappahanock River on its northern bank, where it meets the Chesapeake Bay. We know you will enjoy your family vacation on the banks of the Rappahanock River. Here you will find a stay that is very private 2.5 acres of land, with 250 feet of water frontage, 150 feet of sandy beach, a half basketball court, corn-toss, fire pit, and plenty of room to play. We can sleep 10, we have three bedrooms (two with queen size beds, and a bunk room with two bunkbeds, and a futon. Two bathrooms, and a spacious outdoor shower.

From our beach, the river is five miles wide, directly across from Deltaville, and a quarter mile northwest of the Chesapeake. Our 2.5 acres of land boasts 250 feet of shoreline, a private sandy beach, a dock, a basketball court, and enough room to toss around a football, frisbee, baseball, lacrosse ball, or anything else that flies. We have two sea kayaks available for your use, as well as a paddle board, and you are welcome to bring your own sunfish, waverunner, windsurfer, or other beach toys that will enhance your vacation. PLEASE, if one of the paddles for the kayak or paddle board breaks, we understand accidents happen - let us know so that we can try to replace them in time for the next guests.

Guests should plan to bring their own umbrella and beach chairs. We try to leave 3-4 becah chairs behind after our visit each summer, but these chairs get destroyed by the weather, and are sometimes left on the beach overnight (which often leads to them blowing into the river during a storm). So we cannot guarantee you will have usable chairs. If you have usable chairs that we left behind, please try to bring close to the house at night and at the end of your stay.

No slimy sand on our beach – at low tide with the slow sloping beach an adult can walk 100 plus yards off the shore and still be standing. We often have schools of dolphins in the river, particularly during the late summer. Tall pines on the front yard (river facing) provide excellent shade in the afternoon if you need a break from the sunny beach to play a game of corn toss, or to set up the fire for the evening in the fire pit to sample some smores with the kids. CEnjoy your morning coffee on the outdoor patio, play card games on the front screen porch, take an overexposed picture of the spectacular sunsets, or just kick back with a cold refreshing drink and let the summer day just stretch on!

Walk to the Bar/Restaurant at the Marina to catch a live band on a Saturday night, head up the road to Irvington to catch breakfast at the Tide’s Inn, head into Kilmarnock for some antique and specialty shops. Hit the links at Golden Eagle golf course, about 10 country miles away (if you are used to waiting to take a shot at a crowded city course, prepare for having the course to yourself). Take a day trip to Busch Gardens, historic Williamsburg, Yorktown and Jamestown, Richmond (each between 1 and 1.5 hours), Virginia Beach (2 hours), or even Washington D.C. (2.75 hours). We know you will have a fantastic vacation at an affordable price.

Note, if you have stayed here before, there is currently no dock. The dock was destroyed in a storm and what remained was removed. We are working on getting a replacement scheduled.

A little piece of heaven
First of all is was a beautiful, well-equipped property. Very clean and airy. Closer to the water than the pictures show, Such lovely views of the river. So, so quiet, just what we like when we are on vacation! My son caught a few crabs and he and hubby steamed them. The owner was very responsive to questions. We just loved how secluded this house was. This house had every amenity one would need. We will definitely book again.

Great spot for a weekend at the river
We had a great long weekend at this home while in town for a wedding. Home is bigger than it looks in the pictures so we were pleasantly surprised. Our 4 year old loved spending hours on the dock fishing and using the crab pots, the beach area was also great for him. Thank you for letting us enjoy your home!

Very Disappointed and overpriced
The "location" on the river is great, but the house is a stretch for the rate per night being charged and an added cleaning fee that is a tad over the top based on the age/condition of the house. The property was not ready upon our arrival. Luckily, we had dinner reservations up in Warsaw so we'd be gone for awhile, time enough for the cleaning person to come take care of things. Beauty is in the eyes of the beholder they say. To some, you'd think this place was the Ritz based on reviews. If you're looking for the "3 hots and a cot", a rustic feel, this will fill that need.

Nice location, great views and water access
Very nice house / cottage, great views on the bay. Our kids enjoyed the kayaks and the easy beach access. The house itself reminds me of houses in Florida, cinder block, one level, lots of windows. They have a nice gas stove and washer / dryer, but be advised the electrical is older (most outlets are non-grounded and we did have an older lamp there short out when it was plugged in), and it looks like it has seen better days in terms of the bathrooms, but all very functional. The fire pit and basketball court are great.

Private Beach / Quite Neighborhood
The pictures of the property and house are exactly the way it is. The private beach was enjoyable. The screened-in porch has awesome views. Large rooms inside, especially the living room, made it extra nice. This is a perfect place for a family with children that love the water, or a group of adults that want to get away and enjoy the views. Restaurants nearby are amazing. We ate out four times and all four were great. Wish we had time to check out more!

Relaxation oasis
Property was very relaxing and private. Small occassional waves: great for us. Calm enough occasionally to try paddle boarding. Research restuarant times, many are closed Monday and Tuesday. Hours vary. Would definitely consider returning.

Wonderful Weekend
This was an absolutely gorgeous spot for a mid November weekend trip to the beautiful Northern neck. The home is spotless and is very charming with a retro river house vibe. The view and sunsets are outstanding in the private beach is just lovely, especially if you have children under 12. The host was very communicative and let us know about damage to the dock that had just occurred prior to our arrival. I highly recommend this as a relaxing and beautiful spot to spend your time on the Northern neck.

Thank you so much for an awesome trip!
Our second time here. Super clean, fabulous location, very private and a terrific beach. Great kayaking with amazing views of open water and sand bottom launch. Owner is great to work with. Close to restaurants and fresh seafood. In particular, Miss Mary's in Whitestone, and the Dredge Restaurant in Irvington. If you love salt water and enjoy the peace and quiet to relax and reflect, this is perfect. Linda and Doug

Beautiful Views
We absolutely loved our visit to Windmill Point. The views were amazing! Due to the pandemic, it was difficult to find restaurants that were open in the area so we cooked almost all of our meals at the house. The gas grill hadn't been cleaned in a very long time. When my husband preheated it for steaks, it was like a fire ball! He had to cool it down, disassemble and clean. Also, the front and back door knobs were about to fall off and he found a screwdriver and fixed both. The back porch was pretty dirty. That being said, we definitely plan on visiting your home again! We absolutely loved the master king size bed. It was so comfortable! Love your house and the design. Thank you so much for having us!

About the host

Hosted by Jenelle Hatch

Host profile image
John and Jenelle have been married 22 years and have four wonderful sons. We are a very athletic family and have come to love being at the river and all it has to offer. Last year (2012) our life took us from Arlington, VA to Austin, TX. We are now not able to spend as much time at the river and would like to share it with others. Our kids have spent the last five summers here, attending sailing and baseball camp, wakeboarding, water-skiing, tubing, and just playing in the water. The kids have also enjoyed catching rockfish, flounder, and spot off the pier. Crab pot off the dock too. I'm sure you will enjoy it just as much as we have.
