Beautiful home in a quiet tranquil location

Home is awesome, very well taken care and decorated nicely. All the amenities we needed got a peaceful stay. Very cozy and quiet. The town itself was very accommodating and people are very pleasant.

Picket fence

The house fit our needs. When we arrived we found the front door closer was broken, the toilet paper holder was falling off the wall, toilet seats were loose and within 30 minutes of walking around the baby’s feet were filthy black. The floors looked clean but they were not. Overall we had a great time. Thank you so much!

Good home base during stay

We booked this cottage for two, to provide a home base while we explored the local state parks and beaches. It had a nice large kitchen and just enough space to fit our needs. You can sometimes hear a local car wash dryer or sirens from the rescue squad, but when you’re inside it’s quiet. Would be a great place for a couple or single family to enjoy!

Perfect cottage

This cottage was right on the main road in Colonial Beach. It was very clean and comfortable and tastefully decorated. The kitchen was fully equipped for cooking. The outdoor area was relaxing and had a fire pit and grill. The location was close to everything in town. You could walk to the beach and many stores and restaurants. We love the area and hope to return soon!
