Location, location, location (and so much more)
The property exceeded expectations and proved to be the perfect spot for relaxing and adventuring over a long Thanksgiving weekend. At first sight the word that came to mind was ‘magical.’ Tucked next to a water cul-de-sac, the views are spectacular. Equally as wonderful, our hosts paved the way for nearly any activity. There are boats, fishing rods, a croquet set, board games, a hot tub, and more. We gathered each day in the “Florida room” to talk and read. We had daily excursions to various places tucked here and there, and all within easy drives. We slept on comfy beds, and all-in-all felt spoiled, which in retrospect is just what I needed. As icing on the cake, Little Wicomico is dog-centric and since we have two, they, and us were very happy. The plan is to return and in case it’s not clear by now, I can’t wait! Thank you, Arlene, for “our” top-notch vacation paradise, as well as for your kindness and stellar communication. We left this morning with gratitude.

Beautiful Property!
Wonderful accommodations and picture-perfect setting. Our host, Arlene, was incredibly kind and responsive. The house and grounds are appointed with everything you need for a comfortable stay. The kitchen was equipped with spices and condiments, there were plenty of towels and they even had crab pots and canoes for outdoor fun. We take a long weekend at this time each year but we usually go to the Outer Banks. This year we decided to try Heathsville and we were so glad we did. The surrounding towns are all charming, we had a wonderful dinner at Horn Harbor Restaurant, and found lots of little shops and thrift stores to fill our days. We will be back Arlene, thanks again for your hospitality! Mark and Trish Clark, Rob and Allison Kennard

Relaxing, peaceful retreat Perfect for disconnecting
My family of 3 recently stayed for a long weekend Thursday- Sunday. It was exactly what we were looking for and needed. We wanted somewhere remote we could enjoy, disconnect, have fun, and make memories as a family. The house is very comfortable and welcoming, it’s very easy to feel at home and relaxed. Everything you need is provided and labeled! We purposefully wanted a vacation that encouraged us to slow down but that by no means meant we were bored. There was so much to do, we had a blast all weekend! Sitting outside and listening to nature and the birdsong is such a good reset, there were many fish jumping and we even spotted a few river otters. Arlene was wonderful and helpful from the moment I contacted her with questions about the house! During our stay she answered right away as questions popped up. She also provided a ton of info before arrival that was greatly appreciated. Checking out was easy. Vir-mar beach is close by and a great place to visit and spend some time. Other than that and the grocery store we did not leave the property. We had such a great time and are looking forward to returning in the near future. Thank you Arlene for sharing this beautiful space with our family 😊

This is our second time staying here. It’s perfect for outdoorsy type. We stayed two weeks and left the house only 3 times. Place had everything you need. It’s perfect. Caught tons of crab from dock, saw stingrays swim into our bay, jellyfish, eel, flounder, eagles, SO MUCH NATURE TO ENJOY! Thank you Arlene!

Quiet girls trip
We wanted a fun and low key weekend away and this was great. There were just three of us so we had lots of space and really enjoyed the water view, kayaks, and eating out on the deck. Took the ferry out to Tangier one day and went to a nearby vineyard and Kilmarnock.

We had an amazing time on our stay. The house was perfect for us, they had everything we needed. We fished and crabbed everyday from the docks and took advantage of the canoes and kayaks. I will definitely stay again

August in Ophelia!
Very pleasant stay! Couldn't be any closer to the water, and it is just a 5 mile paddle to the bay! Even though the neighbors were somewhat close, it still felt very private. I also want to say how well the home was stocked and labeled.....the host literally thought of everything! Only thing was the sea nettles that prevented swimming, but it is to be expected at the time of year we were there and the location of the home. Overall great vacation and would stay again!

Fantastic Family Vacation!
We had a great time in July, very hot outside, but the accommodations were great and we had a great time teaching fishing and crabbing skills. All were comfortable and happy and we were a large group with a wide age range!
