Holiday Homes in King and Queen Court House

"Quiet and clean"

"Definitely a unique setting, and we can see why outdoorsy folks and their dogs would love it. Larkin is a delightful and considerate host! Much of what we read in the reviews was on-target, and we created some great memories while here. We did figure out that suburban 66-year-olds like us are likely not as well-suited for this setting. For many of its positive aspects, we experienced a few that were less-than-ideal for us. The home is truly well-stocked - it's incredible how much "stuff" is available to guests, but, because of that, there was little-to-no room to settle in with our own stuff - we mostly lived out of our suitcases and food bags. Screened-in porch wasn't quite as anticipated; the screens were more like loosely hung drapes, and the porch door could not be fully closed, so my hope of having lots of porch-time safe from bugs did not work out well. We arrived during an unusually warm spell for early April (low 80s) and needed to use the A/C units, but those are loud, and not as effective as central A/C. While my husband really enjoyed catching many types of fish from the pier, the use of the pier was episodic based on tidal water levels, and the access was uneven and somewhat challenging, with my husband taking one good tumble into bramblebushes and then the water when coming off the pier. Although we won't return, we have no regrets for choosing such a unique home to help us access the other parts of VA that we visited."

"The staff was really helpful."

"We had a great stay! "

"Overall this property served my purpose for one overnight. It was very quiet. The bathroom.was exceptionally clean but the room a little less so. Bed was a little squeaky but linens were clean. Thank you to the staff person who got my TV working."

"YES! Cat loved it! The only kitchen thing I could not find was a pasta strainer. "

"The beds were comfortable with good mattresses. Never ran out of hot water. Well supplied kitchen. HVAC was right on. This all made for a comfortable stay."

"We have stayed in many VRBOs and this is easily one of the most incredible properties of all! It may be slightly off the beaten path but it is absolutely worth it! The property is beautiful with tranquil water views and the tiny barn is tastefully decorated with all amenities you would need. It was incredibly clean and comfortable. We have family in the Richmond area and cannot wait to return on our next trip!"

"It is a nice place. I would stay here again."
