White Stone House | 'Pop Castle' Historic Gem on the Rappahannock River

5 Bedroom House in White Stone

Crossing the bridge into the town of White Stone you arrive at this magnificent estate on the Rappahannock River. 'Pop Castle' is a property entrenched in civil war history. It is on the National Registry of Historic Homes and a registered Virginia Historic Landmark.
This 1855 house, flanked by two majestic Oak trees overlooking the two-mile wide Rappahannock River, offers expansive lawns, towering trees, and a long sandy beach. Sit out on the screened porch and watch the osprey and the resident eagle go after their daily catch while the dolphins swim by. Relax in the hammock on the sandy shores of the river or go swimming, fishing, or crabbing off the 30 foot deck (two crab pots are available). This five bedrooms historic home on twelve exquisite acres with hundred year old magnolias and oaks is fully furnished and equipped with WiFi, cable, bikes, a two person kayak, two paddleboards, a sports court for pickleball and spec tennis, a ping pong table, Peloton bike, and multiple outdoor games like volleyball, badminton and croquet sets.
With the wood paneled living room with fireplace, comfortable TV room with fireplace, formal dining room with fireplace, sunroom with a large bay window overlooking the river, a large and bright kitchen with adjoining windowed garden/laundry room, and a spectacular 50 foot long porch opening directly to the wide treed lawn and the river, your family and friends will have plenty of space to share your valued time together. On the second floor, five bedrooms, three with fireplaces, offer ample sleeping space (although if more is needed, the first floor sunroom and TV room with adjoining full bathrooms can easily be converted into bedrooms using our queen airbeds).
Vacation homes abound, but none other offers such serenity and natural beauty while allowing you to stay in a house shelled by Union gunboats in 1861 or on the land raided by the British fleet during the War of 1812. The property includes historic outbuildings, including a smokehouse and granary from the 1850s and an enormous work shed housing some of the cannonballs uncovered on the property.
Come take off your shoes and relax in this historic estate on the Rappahannock River, one mile from the Chesapeake Bay. Above all, come sit on the deck and experience a sunset as you have never seen it before, and be a part of history.
Pop Castle is also renowned for its memorable weddings ranging from 50-300 guests.

Summary: Pop castle was the perfect venue for a dream wedding. The location was amazing with views of the river and gorgeous sunsets for the rehearsal dinner and wedding. Tons of space outside for dinner, dancing and a band. It was great to have the wedding party stay the weekend. We could not have asked for better hosts or location. Thank you!

Summary: I was surprised to hear all my family thought it was one our best vacations and were all delighted to hear that I booked it for next year. All were very active throughout the week, and all seemed to enjoy the activities and each other's company. Our only complaint was that the ice maker was not very productive, and the kitchen door was difficult to lock and unlock. I tried to tighten the lock but did not have the proper tools with me. We are already looking forward to our stay at Pop Castle next year, and me at 82, I hope I can make it and enjoy my family as I did this year. Thanks, Don Ford

Summary: We stayed at POP CASTLE for our daughter's wedding. The landscaping was BEAUTIFUL and the house was IMMACULATE! With 6 bedrooms and 7 baths, our family of 12 was very comfortable! The kitchen was 5 star and my husband could not wait to cook dinner there! We relaxed on the back porch with outstanding river views, spent time on the dock, took sunset photos, and shared so many wonderful memories together! I definitely recommend this magical place to anyone looking for a private sanctuary to spend time with family and friends.

Summary: This house and grounds are incredible. I am in awe of the amount of time, energy and caring that the owners have put into it. Every detail enhances it. All of my family, kids, grandkids and great grandkids, loved it. The house is beautiful and well planned for large groups, plus so many options for things to do or play. We are already planning a return trip.

Summary: Pop Castle was magnificent in both setting and residence ! It was perfect having a bathroom for each bedroom with so many different family members. Since it wasn’t real cold, being able to congregate and eat on the enclosed veranda with the heating units was ideal affording such beautiful views.

Summary: Our group of 13, ranging in age from 3 months to 93, truly had a wonderful week. This historic house is decorated beautifully and the bedrooms are large and very comfortable. It was nice to have one bedroom on the first floor (used by our 93 year old). We all remarked about how quiet the house was with no one hearing anyone else in the house. The back porch is air conditioned and we used this for many hours each day. The sunsets from the dock were fabulous and we were lucky that there were very few jelly fish so the kids could play in the water. It was also great that the water was not too deep( we are not so lucky with jelly fish at our home in Annapolis). The playhouse outbuilding was terrific for kids and adults and it also is air conditioned with its own bathroom. We played pickle ball, badminton, croquet, many rounds of corn hole, basketball, ping pong and more. The kitchen is remarkably stocked to make it very easy to feed large groups. The site is just so lovely, surrounded by huge oak trees and magnolias. We saw eagles and dolphins and watched stars at night. Staying at Pop Castle was very special and we thank the owners for their generosity in sharing this home. We did find Compass Entertainment in Irvington which was perfect for our grandchildren. We spent a rainy day here and the kids were thrilled. We certainly recommend it. Also, the free ferry at Merry Point was fun and scenic. Truly a lovely week for our family.
