NEW for 2022! Provided will be all sheets, 2 towels and a face cloth per person (8 persons), and two kitchen towels.

Please note: Due to cleaning schedules our cottage rents from Sunday to Sunday in season. Also, please note, due to extra sanitation measures in cleaning between guests our cleaning service has asked for extra time. Therefore we ask that you not expect to check-in before 3:00 PM. If you arrive earlier you may use the dock until the cleaners are finished.
New enlarged dock.
Our cottage is furnished to make your stay comfortable and relaxing. The media package is highlighted by a 60 inch flat screen HD TV, DVR, stereo and WIFI internet.
The ranch-style cottage features a great room with a living room, a dining area, and a fully equipped kitchen with stainless steel appliances (the oven is not full-size) and a gorgeous view of the lake. Sliding glass doors from the kitchen exit onto a deck with lake views, table and chairs, and a gas grill. The living room has a gas stove.

There is a large dock, with an attached floater for swimming and canoe/kayak launching. You may tie-up your boat to the dock. We supply a canoe, a kayak, paddles, and life jackets (please use at your own risk). Please avoid dragging the canoe over the rocks but rather launch it from the dock, so that the bottom is not damaged. There is a fire pit/ring (you may use any wood you find on our property or bundles can be purchased at the nearby White House Market).
Swimming off our lake-front is ideal, with clear, calm, water and minimal interference from waves; making it fun for younger children and adults. You are permitted to fish off our dock. Kids love catching the sunfish on worms.

Great Getaway
Property was in a good location and in good condition. As with all VRBOs it was obviously well used. Dock was awesome for our 23 ft boat. Ramp at Virginia Dare is a bit neglected but close by.Hosts were very responsive in terms of providing information, although we had no other issues. Property and area also dog friendly for walking. Deer in the yard every evening and hanging on the dock was very cool. Awesome wind chimes in the back yard. We arrived at the conclusion of a tropical storm which left the front yard and gravel driveway spongy requiring fwd to get out, but under normal conditions there should be no issues. Adequate room for three couples. Washer and dryer a bit grungy but they worked. Screened in porch was really nice. A/C and heat were good. Would recommend this property. Had a good time.

Great Getaway by the Lake
My second visit to this cozy cove cottage and loved it again. My Portuguese water dog and his buddy were in dog heaven. Kayaking was fun and the peacefulness in the cove was relaxing. House is well equipped with everything you need and comfortable. Screened in porch is the best place to be! Hope to return!

Great vacation
We really enjoyed our stay at this cottage. We spent a lot of time at the dock. There is plenty of shade and sun if you want it. Location is in a fairly private cove, so you can swim without worrying about boat traffic. Kitchen is very well stocked which we appreciated because we cooked most of our meals while there. We enjoyed the new gas grill. It’s about a 15 minute drive to Food Lion. The beds are comfy. The property is in a quiet neighborhood and we took long walks every morning without having to worry about traffic. Deer in the yard every night- and sometimes in the daytime.

Getting away from it all!
My husband, myself and our pooch enjoyed several days here. It was perfect for us...tucked away in a quiet cove, plenty of yard for our dog, a wonderful screened in porch, a beautiful dock where you could choose to sit in the sun or the shade. (Bonus points!) The house was comfy and had everything we needed. The master bed was super comfy. And it was an easy drive to multiple restaurants. The owners were very responsive when I had questions about the area. We loved it and hope to return.
