We had three generations… grandparents , two grown kids and their spouses, and kids ranging from 10 months to 12 years. The location can’t be beat. The water is calm, private sandy beach, kayaking, paddle boarding, fishing, spacious kitchen, gas BBQ. We all loved it! ##### Rita R.

The house definitely needs a deep cleaning and the cleaning service that the owner uses needs to be stepped up for the cleaning time between tenants. There were a couple of complaints and the owner did refund a small amount of the rental fee. ##### Terri T. Stayed 7 nights in Aug 2023 Verified ### 10/10 Excellent #### Buddy D. 10 Aug 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Whitestone Stay Cant say enough about the views from this property and the feeling as though you have the bay all to yourself! Kitchen was perfect and there was plenty of room for the 8 of us (4 adults and 4 teens) to eat and cook and hang out and play games and just be together! We took the opportunity to spend a day in Kilmarnock (VERY close) with great shops and great grocery store (Tri-Star for the win) and you've GOT to try Small Town Burger for the best smashburger in the Northern Neck...and this is coming from a guy who loved NNK Burger before they burned down! While it in no way detracts from the place at all...the mosquitos and horseflies there are no joke, be prepared to go to battle with them! ##### Buddy D.

This property is perfect for families with young children. It allows everyone to relax! Beach is perfect for young kids to enjoy safely and parents to breathe and relax! Water is calm and shallow enough to enjoy without worry! My four year old grandson said it was like having a huge pool! Diane was a great hostess and communicator! Only negative is cleaning staff…had to fold all the towels from previous renters, but honestly I tell you this so the property owners are aware…did not affect our wonderful time! This is a true gem of a place! ##### Jean K. Stayed 3 nights in Sep 2023 Verified ### 10/10 Excellent #### Kimberly M. 1 Aug 2023 Liked: Check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Family Vacay The setting is beautiful. We all loved seeing the dolphins and other creatures of the bay during our romps on the private beach. The house has lots of space for large gatherings and the back porch was a favorite with our group. The only downside was water dripping from the ceiling over the bed- this was not fun for the couple assigned to this bedroom. Hopefully, the repair was made so the next family will not have to deal with the annoyance. ##### Kimberly M. Stayed 7 nights in Jul 2023 Verified ### 10/10 Excellent #### Sedona Y. 9 Sept 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Dream Property This property is absolutely amazing. The listing and pictures do not do it justice. The home is much larger than the posting makes it seem and the private beach is absolutely perfect. The shallow and calm waters were perfect for my children who enjoyed the water from sun up until sun down. There was an issue (that really was a non issue) that the owner of the property communicated to us prior to arrival. Although it was really a non- issue, the communication was appreciated. We were so pleased with the location of this property and everything that was provided along with it that we will hopefully return next year for a longer period of time! Thank you so much for allowing us to be your guests. ##### Sedona Y. Stayed 3 nights in Sep 2024 Verified ### 10/10 Excellent #### Mike C. 9 Oct 2023 Liked: Check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### 3 generations family vacation We enjoyed the views looking across the bay, spacious and well-equipped kitchen, shallow water out to breakwater and upstairs play area. Saw bald eagles, great blue herons, deer, raccoon and rabbits. Sunrises are awesome. Bedrooms very comfortable. Our adult children and the grandchildren enjoyed the paddleboard and kayak. I, grandpa, was happy to sit on the porch, watch the other generations having a great time together, and enjoy my glass of wine. Recommend an early morning trip to Chesapeake Doughnut Company in White Stone for a selection of fresh baked doughnuts for your crew to enjoy. We took turns preparing and serving meals and everyone loved the kitchen and dining areas. ##### Mike C.

The location and the size of this house are amazing! It fit all 12 of us easily. We were able to see the water from every window and the walk out to the beach was so simple! I could even hear the kids playing in the water from my room! There are some tree stumps sticking up on the beach, so walk with caution! The water was perfect for all our young swimmers and our big fishermen! The flies were biting when we got there and Diane was so kind to quickly send us some fly bags! She was extremely helpful and responsive to all our needs! Only suggestion would be an update of some of the kitchen stuff - pans, spoons and cereal bowls for the kids. But so minor while you are enjoying this beautiful place! My dad even asked when we are coming back! ##### Carly B. Stayed 7 nights in Jun 2024 Verified ### 8/10 Good #### Kim K. 29 Jun 2024 Liked: Check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### 5th year - great family vacation We have rented this house for the last 5 years. Cleanliness has always been a little patchy but this year the house had not been cleaned at all when we arrived, the laundry was done but bathrooms, kitchen and all floors were obviously not touched. It was not pleasant to walk into a vacation house and find other people’s waste. However, I want to say - I contacted Dianne and she responded quickly, apologized and refunded our cleaning fee. I know it’s difficult for owners to know what the cleaning company is actually doing, they can’t be there every week to check on things. This is a great house in a beautiful, private location. We love going there with our family - it’s perfect for our young grandsons. Once issues with cleaning company are ironed out it will be a 5 star property for sure. ##### Kim K. Stayed 10 nights in Jun 2024 Verified ### 8/10 Good #### Annamarie S. 15 Aug 2023 Liked: Check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Would stay again Lovely area with lots to do and steps away from your very own beach. We enjoyed how shallow the water was before it reaches the jetty, which made us more comfortable with the children playing for extended periods. We appreciated the variety of outdoor equipment for us to enjoy in the water. The house is gorgeous and spacious. Unfortunately we did have some issues during our stay with the cleaning upon arrival, unannounced construction/yard work every morning resulting in us not being able to come or go at certain times or being woken up early, and the AC not working for 1.5 days. We understand these things can happen during home rentals and didn't plan to bring up the issues until the AC stopped working. Diane was very responsive once I did reach out and she provided us a very fair refund. Overall, I think we would consider staying here again. ##### Annamarie S.

We loved the beach and had great fun swimming, kayaking, canoeing and paddle boarding. We are big fans of the northern neck area and nearby Irvington, White Stone and Kilmarnock for their restaurants, shops and events. We highly recommend this home for a family vacation! ##### Lisa P.
