JAMES RIVER DETAILS
The river near the shore is shallow offering a great location for children to play. There are NO JELLY FISH IN THE JAMES RIVER OFFERING COMFORTABLE PLAY AND SWIMMING FOR ADULTS AND CHILDREN.
The James River is a tidal river with two tides a day. The tide comes in and goes out very slowly every 12 hours. Good secure water shoes are advised for comfort. The private beach is your front yard. How much better can it be?
Shimmering sea glass colors of teal, turquoise, and lavender complement the original vintage tongue and groove knotty pine paneling walls, wonderful water views, private wide sand beach, private 180 foot pier, fishing gear, kayaks, and luxury amenities to provide a delightful alternative to hotel living.
The cottage is level with the river so there are no steps to climb to reach the beach. Just walk out the French Doors to your water-side deck, and the beach is about 15 feet away. The level location allows for easy viewing of the beach and river if children are playing.

Our cottage is a perfect size for a couple but works equally well for a small family. It can accommodate five people with three cozy bedrooms - one with a queen bed, one with a double bed, and the third bedroom with a twin day bed.
The living room, dining room and kitchen are an open L-shaped floor plan to maximize space. A flat screen TV and dvd player are in the living/dining room area. The cottage is delightful and the location is wonderful - very close to all the historic and entertainment sites in the area. Central heat and air make the cottage a year round destination.
We provide luxury bed and bath linens with beds made up prior to your arrival, terry cloth robes, beach towels, bath toiletries and paper products for the bath and kitchen. Each bedroom has a ceiling fan, fluffy pillows, reading light, flash light, alarm clock, and wide wooden window blinds.

The cottage is furnished with lovely antique beds, mirrors, and a dressing table made by the owners grandfather who was a cabinetmaker and antique dealer in Petersburg, VA during the early 1900s. Original vintage brass wall lights and mirrors are in each bedroom.
Water views can be seen out of three sides of the cottage. Enjoy our waterside deck that runs the full width of the cottage and has a gas grill (we provide the propane tanks), dining table and chairs, and chairs for relaxing and watching the river sights. A second larger vintage wrought iron dining table is located in the waterfront yard.
You can enjoy our 180 foot pier for sitting or fishing or crabbing. Many guests enjoy their morning coffee sitting on the pier or walking the beach looking for sharks' teeth and unique shells. Guests sometimes find it hard to leave the cottage to explore the area. When you do decide to leave, you can spend your time visiting the many historic and entertainment sites close by. You have so many options and never enough time!
The Jamestown-Scotland ferry dock is literally right by the cottage. The free vehicle ferry is operated by the VA Dept of Transportation and operates 24 hours a day. The ferry is not noisy and provides lots of entertainment for children (or adults) who like to sit on the beach or deck and count the cars going on and off. You just drive your car on and are directed where to park. No reservations are needed. The ferry provides an easy, quick, fun and free 15 minute ride across the river and docks at the opposite side of the river at Jamestown. Williamsburg is 4 miles straight up Jamestown Road (about 7 minutes.), and it takes about 15 minutes to get to Busch Gardens from the Jamestown ferry dock. Yorktown, the site of the end of the Revolutionary War, is a about a 20 minute drive from Jamestown via the lovely Colonial Parkway.
The ferry ride to cross the river takes 15 minutes (there are several boats) and runs 24/7 on a half hour schedule during the day and an hour schedule at night providing free, easy, and fun access to historic and entertainment sites of Colonial Williamsburg, Jamestown, Yorktown, Busch Gardens, Water Country USA, The Williamsburg Winery and many other sites. Google Jamestown-Scotland Ferry for their website. Many other historic sites can be accessed on the south side of the river - not using the ferry.
For security purposes, there are exterior security cameras installed on the cottage entry side overlooking the yard and parking area, on the waterside overlooking the beach and water, and on the north side overlooking the north side of the cottage and yard.
Our two James River cottages provide a rare setting for vacation rental cottages in the Colonial Williamsburg area. They are vrbo 777232 and 352993. There are only a very few beachfront cottages available on the James River with close access to Colonial Williamsburg.. Pay careful attention to the location of any riverfront cottage not on the James River as they are much farther away from the major historic sites - often with no easy access to the Jamestown and Williamsburg area.
Detailed information on the cottage and the area is provided to guests prior to their arrival, and there is a selection of brochures in the cottage. And......there is a nine foot wide and tall bookcase wall full of books of every description (including those on the local historic areas and many for children), board games, and movies. There is something for everyone! Come, relax, and enjoy! You will be delighted.
