Waterfront Getaway with Game Room, Kayaks, Perfect for Families

Summary:
Escape to your dream vacation at this 2 bedroom waterfront retreat on the peaceful Corrotoman River. This idyllic getaway offers a perfect mix of relaxation and adventure, ideal for family and friends alike.

The Space:
As you approach the home, the lush greenery and the soothing sounds of the River set the stage for a relaxing vacation. The exterior of the property boasts a charming blend of rustic elegance and beautiful perennial gardens with walking paths, creating an inviting atmosphere from the moment you arrive.

Upon entering, you're greeted by a spacious and well-appointed living area, adorned with large windows that frame breathtaking views of the Corrotoman River. The open-concept design seamlessly connects the living space with a fully-equipped kitchen and dining area, encouraging gathering and shared meals.

The bedrooms are thoughtfully designed to provide comfort and privacy. Each room is tastefully decorated, offering cozy retreats after a day filled with adventure. Imagine waking up to the gentle sounds of nature and the sight of sunlight dancing on the water just outside your window.

One of the highlights of this retreat is the dedicated game room, a haven for fun and friendly competition. Equipped with pool, ping pong, air hockey, and foos ball, this space ensures that every one finds entertainment tailored to their preferences.

Step outside onto the expansive deck that offers a perfect setting for al fresco dining, relaxation, and stargazing. Imagine sipping your morning coffee as you watch the sunrise over the water or the Great Blue Herons waking up, or enjoy whipping up great meals on the Blackstone or charcoal barbecue as the sun sets in a blaze of colors.

For those seeking adventure, the home offers direct access to the River for kayaking, paddle boarding, fishing, or simply lounging about. The surrounding landscape is a paradise for wildlife enthusiasts and birdwatchers. And bring the boat! Put in at nearby Yankee Point Marina, with very reasonable launch and trailer parking fees, and a great restaurant and smaller grill.

Whether you're seeking a peaceful retreat or an action-packed family vacation, this 2-bedroom waterfront getaway promises an unforgettable experience. It's a place where cherished memories are made, and the beauty of nature becomes the backdrop for your getaway.
