About this property

Quiet Oasis for the Whole Fam, Relax On The Porch Or 1 Minute Walk to the Beach!

The first thing you notice when you pull up is the large screened in porch, perfect for catching a nice breeze off the river over a cup of coffee or dinner with family.
The next thing you notice is how relaxing and serene it is on our property. This historic home on the second largest beach in Virginia is perfect for bringing family together, for fun in the sun, or reading in the shade. Plenty of space inside and out, this house is perfect for your getaway to Colonial Beach. It features 5 bedrooms, 3 baths, 2 kitchens, a large dining and family room, and a sweeping corner lot giving you plenty of space for whatever your heart desires. A short walk to the beach, pier, restaurants, coffee shop and blocks to the boat ramp, this is the perfect location in Colonial Beach. A walk around the point to start or end your day is one of our favorite things about this lovely location.

Charming house, gorgeous location
We were a group of eight: a family of five with grown children, two grandparents and a friend, spending the Christmas holiday together. The house was absolutely wonderful -- beautiful views of the river, and a sprawling layout that allowed us to spread out. We appreciated the three bathrooms, and an entire wing for the kids to hang out in. We cooked together -- and having the second kitchen came in really handy while preparing our holiday feast. The large dining table was fantastic for meals and games. The staircase and the bedrooms are so charming, and the screened porch was wonderful in the afternoon sun. We staying in the off-season, so there weren't a lot of restaurants open, but we enjoyed walking around the cute town and took some gorgeous family photos on the beach. We drove into DC twice. We all agreed we'd love to come back again, maybe next time in the summer so we could enjoy the beach even more. Thank you for sharing your home with us!

Wonderful!
Beautiful house with loads of character. Perfect for a large family with grandchildren. The house had everything for a comfortable stay. Easy access to beach. We enjoyed the water view from windows. Great coffee shop with delicious baked goods and restaurants were so close by. Everyone waves to each other in this friendly town, great fun! We rented a golf cart so easy parking. We'll be coming back for another visit!

Lovely House and Beautiful Water View
This house and the close proximity to the water exceeded our expectations! We're a family of 10 (6 adults, 4 children) and there was ample space for everyone. The family room provided a nice assortment of books, toys for kids, TV, sectional sofa, and a large dining table with a water view. The kitchen was well stocked with dishes and cooking essentials. Everyone loved the space and the layout of the house. It was just perfect for our family and we hope to return in the future.

Beautiful Home in a little beach town
This is is our third year renting a house for our family vacation, and this by far was my favorite trip. Colonial Beach is a smaller town, not touristy by any means. Perfect for our family as we had young kids (4 under 4), so we would be spending most of our time in the home and around town anyway. The beach was practically right outside of the house. We loved watching the sunrise and the neighborhood itself was pretty quiet and very family friendly. The house was WELL stocked. Lots of pots, pans, spices, plates, cups, towels, sheets, trash bags, toilet paper, etc. The check in and out process was a breeze. I'm not sure we will visit this town again as we like to rotate annually where we go, but if we do, we will absolutely stay here again.

Why they chose this property

Colonial Beach is where we come to get away from the hustle and bustle of the city. Only and hour and a half drive, but a world away, Colonial Beach reminds us of our childhood playing on the beaches in quaint towns on the Lake Erie shore.

We want to open up our home to you so that you too can enjoy the fun and family memories that we create every time we visit.

What makes this property unique

The porch is what made us fall in love with this property, but the flexibility, size, and location make it a sparkling gem on Colonial Beach. With historic charm in the original house, this is one of the largest properties available for rent in Colonial Beach, with plenty of space for the whole extended family.

With a perfect location, this property is just close enough to everything to be convenient, but just far enough away to have privacy, peace and quiet.
