Five friends weekend on the water

We had a wonderful relaxing stay over Veterans weekend! This is our second time staying at Katherine’s place. Our favorite part is sitting on the back porch overlooking the river. We were extremely fortunate to see two beautiful sunsets. We went into Kilmarnock and Urbana for lunch and shopping.

Quiet cozy cottage

My family and I enjoyed our stay here. It is located in a quiet neighborhood with a lovely neighbor who came to greet us upon arrival and dropped off a magazine with lots of activities and restaurants listed (the owner also provides this in a welcome binder). There are a lot of items for use in the water and plenty of books around the house if you enjoy reading. We were really hoping to get more beach access like the photos show but the water stayed pretty high during our stay. Overall we had a great time. Thank you for allowing us to stay in your home!

Great relaxing getaway!

Very clean and neat bay house - pictures don't do it justice. Awesome location. My family loved the backyard and crabbing/fishing on the pier. Will definitely try to come back soon!

Our week in Deltaville

The house met all of the needs for 4 adults and 1 teen. 4 bedrooms and 2 baths were sufficient. Kitchen was well stocked. We were able to catch crabs everyday, as well as a couple of keeper fish from the dock. Had a great time.

River house trip

Bring your fishing gear

We rented this property to do a late season getaway and just do a little fishing. The house was well appointed and comfortable. We had great communication with the property owner. As noted previously, there was an issue with the water. It had some turbidity, probably caused by recent rainfall prior to our stay. If you are looking for a quiet getaway, I would recommend this pleasant location.

Peaceful Views, Lazy Days

This was a perfect setting for our family vacation and we had awesome weather even in August. The home was well equipped with an efficient layout and lots of room for our eight vacationers. Great dock, good crabbing and even caught a few small drum and spot off the pier. Lots of fun all around and close enough to visit favorite spots on the Northern Neck. Highly recommend.

Great family stay

What a gem in deltaville- the sandy beach for the kids was perfect and the layout works well for a family or multiple generations. In terms of being a rustic river house, it works great.

Slice of paradise!

Our week at this Berryville Shores cottage was exactly what summers are meant to be. Biking to sailing camp, morning runs, family game nights, and sunsets on the dock! The owners were very responsive and incredibly kind. The home was well stocked with all the kitchen essentials, very clean, and even had kayaks for our use. Family time is the best time and we had our little slice of June paradise at this Berryville Shores cottage.

Perfect Weekend with Friends

We had a great time at this house! Every year we get together with my husband's friends and families just to get away and reconnect. The house was perfect for the kids. We turned the bunk room into the play room with their toys. The kitchen was well stocked and even had some basic cooking supplies so be sure to check the cabinets before you go buy more stuff at the store. The guys loved the pier. Caught a few fish and some crabs. My son enjoyed fishing with his dad, jumping into the river from the pier and swimming on the shore. Heads up, the beach in the pics is only there during low tide. Also during low tide, the water at the end of the pier came up to my chest and I am 5'4" so be careful about diving. Overall it was a wonderful weekend and our favorite weekend to date!

Almost 5 Stars

The star of the show is the water view. Incredible and peaceful. We enjoyed the use of the paddleboard and kayak. The guys caught fish and a couple dozen crabs off the dock. The most comfortable and clean in appearance furniture is in the bedroom with the bunks. That sofa allows you to stretch out and also has supportive cushions. We enjoyed sitting on the screened in porch. It was HOT when we were there and the a/c unit did a terrific job keeping us cool. My reason for 4 stars is two-fold. Insects and water. The home has small black ants in the kitchen. They were there when we arrived, and despite the ant baits on the counter, the ants remained all day, every day. We wiped counters with vinegar and zipped all our snacks/sweet in ziploc bags, but the ants were still there. There are also bugs...small flies and spiders in the ensuite bathroom. Perhaps this is unavoidable with a home on the water, but if an exterminator is billing the homeowners, they owe better service to them. Second, the smell of the water coming out of every faucet, shower and washing machine smells exactly like the water in the river. We used bottled water to brush our teeth with. Again, if a water treatment company is billing the homeowners, that company owes the homeowners a refund. I don't think I've ever left a below 5 star review at any property I've stayed at on VRBO, but the insects and water stench bothered our entire group (two families). If these issues were to be resolved, we would come again.
