About this house rental

Beautiful, private 5 bedroom home (sleeps 15) on more than one acre of land is the perfect escape from the hustle and bustle of the DC/Richmond Metro areas, even for a short weekend.

On warm days, float in the brand new private in-ground pool while you listen and watch Taskmaker Creek and the amazing diversity of wildlife (including the occasional bald eagle) pass by. Or take the water toys (paddle boards, kayaks, canoe) from the garage and float on The Creek and/or The Bay, launching from the private sandy beach on the property. For those who want to have fun on land, the home has spike ball, croquet, badmitton, and corn hole. On nice evenings year round, end the day sipping cocktails at the end of the dock, with beautiful water and wildlife views, and the most incredible Bay and Creek sunsets.

For cooler evenings year-round, gather around the outdoor gas fire pit with views of The Bay and Creek, or build a fire on the sandy beach and sit by The Creek. During the day, take long walks on the quiet lanes and roads in the area. In the winter months, enjoy the indoor gas fireplace as you make dinner with family, and enjoy the sunset from the windows and sliding doors, and create new memories.

No matter the time of year, start your mornings with coffee/tea, watching the beautiful sunrise over The Bay, and end your evenings with your beverage of choice at the en of the dock to witness the most spectacular sunsets Creek-side.

For the fisherman among you, your boat can easily be parked in our large driveway, or stored in our large HVAC'd, three-stall garage. The boat launch is just a mile away, in Fleeton. For the shoppers and antiquers among you, the home is within 3 miles to Reedville Center and restaurants including Fleeton Point Seafood, Cockrell's Seafood Deli, Reedville Market, Crazy Crab, and Chitterchats ice cream. And just a thirty minute drive away is the larger town of Kilmarnock, and the beautiful town of Irvington.

Inside the spacious home, filled with brand new furnishings, you will find 5 large bedrooms, large kitchen, and multiple living spaces (on main and upper floor) to accommodate the whole group. Large dining room allows for the whole family to enjoy meals together while watching The Bay flow by. Fully stocked kitchen provides all the equipment you will need, including diswasher. Enjoy time relaxing in our favorite spot on the screen-in porch while listening to the waves. This home has multiple private and public areas, making it ideal to have family time, and private time, as needed.

Home has 5G 1000mbps wifi and three desks to easily accommodate remote work and streaming.

As owners, living in the DC Metro area, our favorite aspect of the home is that within 2.5 hours drive of DC, and 1.5 hours from Richmond, giving us the opportunity to truly get away from it all - even just for a quick weekend. Listening to the sound of the waves, the birds, and NO TRAFFIC provides the reset that hectic city life demands. We hope you enjoy this home as much as we do.

We all enjoyed our stay for the week. The house was amazing inside and out. Everyone loved the pool, screened in porch, and firepit. We were a little disappointed that the creek wasn't great fishing and even kayaking far out into the bay didn't change that as it was still relatively shallow water. However we were able to catch the occasional skate off the dock and an abundance of crab.

Super amazing vacation site, especially for a large family. Spacious house, comfortable and well maintained. Amazing waterfront. Had everything we needed for a great family vacation.

A beautiful clean home with a kitchen containing most everything you would need. We were hopeful to be able to catch fish and crabs but that didn’t work out so well. Perhaps the 100+ heat didn’t help with that. But the pool was wonderful. Fabulous sunrises and sunsets. My only regret is we could not get to the Bay. Thank you for sharing your wonderful home. We all had a great time

Beautiful home with everything you could need, kayaks, paddle boards, salt water pool, and a little sandy beach. The home was great and easily fit our three small families. The upstairs was fantastic with its own private space. The town is tiny so if you are looking for things to do or pizza to order for delivery this isn’t your place, but if you are looking to leave everything behind and hideaway with all the relaxing you could dream of this is DEFINITELY THE place for you!! Fires on the beach with a full moon Kayaks, canoes, paddle boards, games The screened in porch was a wonderful place to relax. Don’t forget your bug spray, but if you do they’ll have it for you. Everything was easily explained in the binder!! We all enjoyed our stay!!

If you are looking for somewhere that is off the beaten path, this is it! This home is absolutely beautiful and in a great location with the private beach and pool. Although we had a few cleaning issues up front, Peter worked with us immediately to rectify any issues. This home offers great amenities and great hospitality. I would definitely rent this home again!

Traveling to this modern estate on the Chesapeake Bay and Taskmaker Creek brought us into a peak of the old times from the late 18 century up to present day. The town of Reedville and it's multiple fishing fleets and Main street with the many Millionaires Mansions were worth a visit. While the restaurants are few and not always open, they are treats that must be visited. The house itself in a wonder of new proportions with it's many well appointed Bedrooms, Kitchen, Living Room, Screened in Porch, wonderful Dining Room (fantastic View of The Chesapeake Bay) and of course the Boat Dock on Taskmaker Creek (in our case --Fishing Dock) The Swimming Pool had all our family wet and satisfied (plenty of swim toys available) The Kayaks and Life Jackets, in the Garage were ready to use but we had brought our own. There was an outside Fire Pit that we did not have the opportunity to use but it's there and we did manage to use the BBQ grill for many of our meals. Our host Ms. O'Neil was very helpful and kind to our needs and answered every question and request. Overall this "Taskmaker" rental from VRBO was the perfect place for our Family of 9 and our pet Dog "Zeplin" for 7 days was PERFECT.
