COZY upscale getaway close to Main St! Waterfront Cottage -Gorgeous views!

Waterfront retreat, perfect for your next getaway!


Escape to the quaint coastal town of Mathews in this charming 3 bedroom, 2.5 bath vacation rental cottage. Just renovated, super fresh with upscale furnishings, we have created a “home away from home” for complete tranquility. Enjoy waterfront views from every room. Spend your mornings sipping coffee on the covered porch watching herons glide around the creek. Throw the crab pots in to catch your evening bounty of blue crabs. Bring your boat and tie it up at our pier or enjoy our canoe and kayaks exploring Morris & Stutts Creek, minutes from the Chesapeake Bay. Fire up the grill and enjoy meals on the outdoor dining table. The evening sunsets are not to be missed on the front porch. On chilly evenings, relax in the Adirondack chairs in front of a toasty fire. We have puzzles and board games for a friendly round of family fun.

Family Gathering
The house was perfectly clean with every attention to detail. Anything you might need was there for you from a few drinks to get you started, fully stocked kitchen, basic cooking needs to a whole s'mores set up! A lovely home to entertain in with all that you need to host your guests. Check in was easy and the hosts are there for you should you need anything. The deck and yard are beautiful and well appointed with a grill, lights, lots of seating and cornhole which was used for hours a day by our college kids. Highly recommend this home for your gathering.

Tranquility with all the Amenities
You don't need to search any further. This is the only place to stay in Mathews. This home has everything you could need when visiting Mathews County.Stephanie and Ron have thought of it all including stuff you didn’t know you would need.This was the first time in a long time to have all my adult children under one roof and we had the most tranquil and memorable visit. The home is appointed in a way that feels like a home away from home. Quality linens, super clean, and exceptional attention to detail. The property is spacious and offers something to occupy guests of all ages. We happened to visit during a tropical storm and that didn't even spoil the visit. The owners came out and took care of the property too. Thank you for opening you lovely home up to us. We will be back very soon to make more memories.

Cozy Cool Cottage!
This house was just perfect for our family for a weekend in Mathews! We were there for a family event. The location is so close to town and the cottage is simply adorable. But not adorable in a cutesy kind of way - adorable in a "can I move in here" kind of way. The hosts thought of every detail. The place is impeccably decorated and you will truly want for nothing during your stay. The bathrooms are completely updated, the wrap around porch is fabulous. What more can I say! I am thinking of more reasons to come back!

Weekend Getaway
Our stay was AMAZING! Not only was the house and property amazing but the detail and thought just made this a whole experience. My daughters enjoyed tossing crab pots, making s’mores at the fire pit, and playing corn hole. The local market close by gave us an opportunity to eat pounds of crab legs outside on the patio; I could go on and on about the memories that were made there. We’re all ready to go back !
