A Gem in Northern Neck
This property has stunning views of the water- a super host and an impeccable cottage that was a delight to stay in. We’re already planning our return. Swim in the river, relax on the dog or grill local fish- this place is near perfection. Very clean. Everything you need and a sweet charming cottage that’s been beautifully preserved.

Very disappointed!
The house number was difficult to locate in the dark, very hard to find. No lights were on, and the outside entrance light did not work. The temperature inside the house was 63 degrees when we arrived. The heat pump only got the temperature up to 68 degrees during the two days we were there! The house was not very clean. Cobwebs everywhere. Instructions for the WIFI were unclear! There was no TV in the unit. Dead bugs were found on the floors and in the kitchen. There was no major lighting over the dining room table and even with all the lights on the house was quite dark! To get some of the lights to work one had to use extension cords. With the strong wind our first night one could feel the cold air coming right through the walls of the house! It certainly was not what we were expecting and not what was described in the description of the property!!

Felt like a trip back in time
We had a blast, my kids loved the doll house! And we're comfortable sleeping. We all enjoyed the small beach. The tide was higher though and there were a lot of jellyfish so we couldn't really play as much in the water as we had hoped, esp bc it was so hot during our stay. We didn't use the property to it's full capacity (only went canoeing once) It's a bit of a drive to restaurants so plan your food accordingly, but otherwise, no complaints. It felt a lot like the cabins we stayed in on the great lakes as kids!

Fantastic location
This is the second time we stay in this property and we always leave wanting to come back. The location is perfect, with great views of the creek and river. Water is just a few steps away. The small sandbanks make this place perfect for kids/teens who like exploring. The equipment provided (kayaks, boards) where all we needed to enjoy the river. Highly recommended to families and nature lovers.

We'll be back!
We had a wonderful stay at Robert's cottage. The cottage is cozy and comfortable, equipped with everything we needed. The view from the house is wonderful, and the little beach area was perfect for our children to splash in the water. We spent a lot of time reading in the hammock and sitting on the screen porch. My birding husband saw nearly 30 species of birds just around the house. We love visiting the area and frequent Hughlett Point Nature Preserve, which is about 25 minutes from Robert's cottage. We look forward to coming back to Robert's cottage in the future.

Family vacation
After a lengthy car ride, we were welcomed into the home with a note written on a large whiteboard that said “Observe check out 11:00!” Not really a welcoming message. The house was cute and had a great view. We enjoyed sitting on the porch and outside. The down side was finding a jelly fish type of creature dead on the little beach. Being from New England this was not something I thought about. So we were afraid to go in the water. A big mistake on my part. We did have a very quiet and relaxing week. We were surprised that the owner never checked in with us to make sure everything was okay.

Much needed respite
Belated Father’s Day present and last weekend before daughter goes back to college. Lots of down time for reading, sunning kayaking paddle boarding. Last night of the vacation we lost power. No storm, just a random power outage. Thank you for sharing your cottage with us

Great weekend getaway
Great property with the most beautiful views! We enjoyed just sitting and enjoying the view all weekend! Dogs had a great time and owner Rob was very quick to reply to any questions and allow a late checkout! Cottage just needs a little more lighting inside at night and walk down to the river/creek was too steep for my mother but otherwise we couldn’t have had a better trip! We were able to enjoy the bikes and other amenities in the garage, fire pit, hammock and pier.

Wonderful Cottage On The Water
This was the perfect weekend get-away. Even though it rained much of the weekend, we were able to enjoy relaxing on the screened in porch and listening to the sounds of nature. The cottage was clean and well supplied, and the hosts could not have been nicer. We will happily return to this great little oasis.

So relaxing!
What a relaxing spot! We spent hours of our trip on the screened porch reading, plying games, and napping. The house was well-appointed. We enjoyed the kayaks and SUP. WiFi was spotty at times. The only downfall is that there’s nothing nearby. This is just fine if you’re looking to relax, but our kids were antsy.

Location, views and perfect short trip
The “Little House” was perfect for our first rental with our two large labs. My husband enjoyed the line crabbing all over the property while the pups and I mostly spent time on the porch with its shade in the afternoon and great place to watch the sunrise in the morning. Sunsets were spectacular just like the 1st picture with all the colors shown.

This property is charming, located right on Hull Creek overlooking the Chesapeake Bay next to the Potomac River. Views of the river and the bay from all sides. Nice lite breeze all days, so no bugs to pester you. Paddle boarding on the creek was calm and flat, very relaxing. Overall a wonderful place to stay and relax.

The home was quaint and tidy. Nice setting and pretty secluded which was nice because that’s what I was looking for. Only draw back was the bugs that were pretty bad at night, but the screened porch was a life saver. Robert was super nice and easy going.
