Rustic Quaint Cottage With Spectacular Views

Please read this entire description before renting as it contains detailed information about what to expect.

If our one bad review bothers you, read our 2020 and 2021 reviews on heir be and be.
For over 70 years our family has owned Mom and Pop's cottage. Reputed to be the first home on Honest Point. the cottage is the epitome of relaxed uncomplicated living. The house was renovated and upgraded for guests about 8 years ago and we continue to add improvements as the needs arise.

Mom and Pop's cottage is situated on deep water and has a small beach. The shore drops off slowly providing small children with safe places to play in the water. The surrounding 25 acres provide ample opportunities for children and pets to roam around

The interior includes an equipped kitchen, two bedrooms, (a queen bed in one, 2 doubles in the other), one bathroom w shower, living room office space and two screened porches.

The house is located in the historic Northern Neck region of Virginia. Enjoy crabbing, fishing, boating, kayaking, winery tours, local breweries, and the historic homes of George Washington, Robert E Lee and James Monroe.

If you prefer wildlife rather than night life this is the place for you. Wake up each morning to eagles, geese, herons, and local crabbers fishing their pots. This is a quiet rural location with plenty of acreage which will give you the chance to get away from the bustle and stress of the city. Most amenities can be reached within 30 minutes.

A note for those from the city -- we live in an area where "critters" are a fact of life. Some of them are a pleasure to see and some of them are a nuisance. We make every effort to accent the positive and eliminate the negative critters that you may encounter . Should you encounter any unwelcome visitors you should call us immediately and we will address the problem.

Can be rented for the summer or the year at reduced rates

HURRICANE and INCLEMENT weather policy. If weather conditions threaten your trip, contact the owner by telephone or text before cancelling or travelling. Generally speaking, if the house is safe and ready for occupancy, there will be no refunds made. If the owner has to cancel your reservation for safety or other reasons, you will receive a refund. Other options may apply so be sure to call or text.

2 Week Stay 9/14 - 9/28/2024
We loved the house and the location being fairly remote yet amenities nearby to fill our needs. We are very familiar with the area but were new to this particular house. The 2 dogs loved the beach area and the big yard to run around. Kitchen was well equipped, and I even made grape jelly during our stay. We loved the two screened in porches as they were lovely when the weather was rainy. We will likely rent again in the future.

Wonderful Cottage on the Water
Wonderful pet friendly cottage on the water. Very relaxing location and the screened in porches were a great plus to help stimulate our dogs during the heat of the day. The cottage was stocked with almost anything you could think of including common condiments. Nancy also accommodated a change of dates for us as well without an issue.

Very good experience, my son enjoyed the beach to the fullest, my wife and I enjoyed the panoramic view, the crabs, the blue crab and the fishing. A very good experience with tranquility and peace.

If I could own a river house, I would want it to be just like this one, beautiful and peaceful views, quaint and charming inside, a two great screened in porches, where we spent most of our time. I'd stay here again in a heartbeat, and hope to again this year or next. Thanks for sharing your wonderful home with my family. :)

Absolutely wonderful cottage
I don't think I could encompass what a wonderful stay we had in one short review. The description and overview of the property is straight forward and provides great detail, including the uniqueness of this rental. The cottage itself is nestled under towering, giant, pines, and dense green foliage. Creating a level of privacy and comfort, even though there is another house nearby, you still feel like you're in an enchanted little forest. The interior of the cottage is well maintained with attention paid to the lovely historic aspects of what I can only imagine is an original Northern Neck river front home. From the built-in to the vintage sconces, original flooring and pine cabinets. The cottage is also immaculate. We travel with our dogs A LOT, and we have never stayed at a pet friendly rental that was so clean and well maintained! You can tell immediately that this property is close to the heart of the owners as you're greeted by a photo of Mom and Pop, next to binder full of valuable information for your stay. The owners are very responsive and kind. The private beach is it's own little oasis and the water is shallow and perfect for kids or dogs. The views from the screened in porch are breathtaking. We will be back!!

Nice House
We loved the house. I was a bit mislead about 20 acres to walk around when there was a family living next door. Each day someone showed up to go into the garage. The gentleman from next door came with his small children and his two dogs on two occasions. I had my older dog with us and she wasn’t crazy about the younger energetic dogs who roamed the property. It would have been good to have known about the neighborly pups before we were surprized by then standing at the porch door barking at my dog

Perfect 3-week stay -- great for kids!
We stayed at Mom and Pop’s cottage for 3 weeks this past August and it was wonderful! Our hosts were very hospitable and we had everything we needed for a relaxing vacation. The house and surrounding area is great for kids (our 3 year old LOVED the private beach). We highly recommend choosing the cottage if you’re looking for a remote escape with a beautiful view - and you must try the crabs!

Nice little cottage
This property is a nice little no frills cottage. Owners were very quick to respond. For us, with kids that love to swim, we were most disappointed by the jellyfish. Both my kiddos were stung in the first few minutes in the water and therefore were scared to swim the remainder of the trip. We realize this is not the owners fault, but we wish we would have known before booking. Otherwise, cute small cottage with great screened in porches and a great view of the water.

Wonderful view and dog-friendly yard
Secluded location in a serene setting with a great river view. Our dog loved the yard and making friends with Dougie. Dated kitchen, only one bath with cramped shower but sufficiently accommodating. Mattresses on double beds too soft for our comfort. Found "hard zones" for individual sleeping our second night.

Quiet and relaxing
There were three of us, two adults and a four year old. The four year old thoroughly enjoyed the sandy beach area. The water was warm and very shallow even with the tide in. We spent most of our time playing in the water We enjoyed our meals sitting in the screened in porch looking out towards the water. Bring bug spray. We are sensitive to bugs bites. We applied spray each evening, even when on the screened in porch. We did a nice kayak outing using the rental place in Kinsale. There is a second property but it felt far enough away that there was privacy. Owners were very responsive to our questions.

What a wonderful secluded home! If you are looking for a quiet property that is waterfront (bonus) this is for you! Lovely 2 screened in porches - and pretty spacious bedrooms. We loved this property and hopefully we will be able to visit again soon, and they allow dogs (another bonus)! Owner was very helpful, house was clean, well stocked kitchen.

Cozy river front house
When I read the last review of this house I wondered if I should rent Nancy's house. As I read all of the other reviews, I decided that it sounded like the place for me. Nancy was a great hostess and very responsive to my e-mail questions about her house. When I arrived she provided a bottle of wine and flowers. The cottage is spacious and immaculately clean. The kitchen is well-equipped which was important as I enjoy cooking. From the screened-in porch you can watch waterfowl and boats on the river. As it was winter, I did not go in the water but enjoyed walking by the river. There are a number of antique stores in the area if you enjoy browsing. I highly recommend this cottage and look forward to visiting again.

Mouse House
Property looks tired. Stains on ceiling, a lot of chipped paint, pine needles in gutters, trash around shed, etc. Then there was the very much alive mouse I saw. Property owners were aware the house had mice. Property manager came and put a glue trap amid the pots and pans. So I can not recommend this property unless you enjoy sharing space with rodents and washing everything in the kitchen before you use it. I don't, so I left.

Reliving Childhood Memories
Callao and this property are a return to the "beach" experience of our youth. Both the property and setting harken back to the beauty of the Chesapeake Bay and its tributaries before the birth of condos and highly populated beach areas with strip malls and amusement parks. The screened porch with its beautiful views of the Coan River is a wonderful place to have coffee, eat meals and watch both sunrises and sunsets. If you enjoy looking at the water and being in a rustic cottage, this is a great place!±

Peace and relaxation
We had a wonderful time at your home. It was peaceful, and we all got some much needed rest and relaxation. We loved the screened in porches, and made use of both of them often once the heat broke. In the meantime, taking a dip at the beach helped (my boyfriend was down there everyday the moment he woke up). I loved the view, and the sunsets were amazing! My dog enjoyed walking around the property and rolling on the grass. The flowers around the property were gorgeous, and I loved seeing the creatures...hummingbirds, cardinals, turtles, butterflies, blue tailed lizards, and the mama deer and her 2 babies in the field. Thank you for your hospitality...the fresh flowers, wine, and your home grown vegetables. We loved our stay at your home, and are dreading our return to work tomorrow!
