Cottage vacation rentals in James City County

Richard was absolutely amazing and was so quick to respond when our trip changed and we were getting there a little bit earlier! We will definitely be coming back next year! The house stayed cold the beds were very comfortable and watching the sunset at the dock was by far my favorite thing!

Beautiful cottage, the view was incredible! We loved watching the sunset. The local area was good for some historical attractions off the beaten path. Everything was as described and exceeded my expectations.

We had an amazing time at the horse farm!! It was great to wake up in such a beautiful, peaceful place, which is still only a short drive from Williamsburg and Jamestown. Plus, you can see the (rescue!) horses grazing peacefully in the pastures. Not much more you can ask for from an Airbnb!

I stayed two nights at Cornelia's place with my sister and niece. The cottage is lovely and is exactly as described. We really appreciated the elevated amenities - luxurious bath towels, loads of cozy blankets, basket of snacks and provided coffee, shampoo, soaps, etc. The porch is a wonderful place to enjoy coffee in the morning as the sun comes up. Cornelia is very responsive and helpful and was quick to assist us in resolving a little issue we had with the door lock. One very minor thing to note (which didn't bother me, as I always come prepared with a travel white noise machine) is the very thin wall between the television and the bedroom. If someone in your party likes to stay up late watching tv, you might want to consider ear plugs or a white noise machine of your own. Overall a wonderful place to stay!

Charming cottage at a family-owned, lovingly-crafted campground. It suited our needs perfectly. We traveled with our dog and all the other dogs on site were all on leashes and well-behaved. The staff was very helpful and we would definitely stay here again!

Our stay at The Cottage at Elm Bank exceeded our expectations. We traveled to Virginia from New Jersey. A single mom, her two big boys and her little pup. We were in town for a little getaway for Easter weekend. I was looking for some peace and tranquility. When we arrived, we were greeted by Susan and George. They were kind and welcoming. The property is absolutely breathtaking. Our accommodations were cozy and super clean. What stood out the most was all of the personal touches that Susan and George provided. We had a welcome basket waiting for us with many thoughtful things for us to snack on. It was as if they knew exactly what we liked. Susan was very responsive and George was very helpful, he even allowed the boys to use the kayaks and helped them set things up to get into the water. We were able to use the pickleball court and the basketball hoop. They set up wood for a wonderful fire and provided the marshmallows and sticks! It’s a beautiful property with wonderful hosts!

Wayne was a awesome host and Our stay was great very peaceful and relaxing. We were able to catch a lot of fish off the dock, as well as seeing Deers the house is cozy and as always enjoy our time there.

My parents and I stayed here for four days. It was the perfect peaceful getaway for us. The place was really cute, two bedrooms with queen size beds, a large bathroom, and the cutest kitchen-living room area. Gloucester is a sweet town to hang out in, and the host gave some great recommendations for local places to check out. Wonderful place, we will be coming back!!

Absolutely beautiful little piece of history. If you remember going to Grandparents farm house to visit, this place is perfect for those who are sentimental and love all things old. The floors, the squeaky screen doors, the beautiful wall decor, the views- all add to how extraordinary this place is. Home was super vlean and very well maintained- perfect for our high-energy Aussie to run, and quiet for us to just relax. The host is extremely responsive and made sure our stay felt warm & welcoming. The appliances are great, and the wifi strength excellent- there's no TV and only one mirror in the bathroom- so if needing those 2 things, bring your own. We didn't, so no an issue. Love this beautiful lil house and highly recommend!!

The home sits on a nice point of land at the end of a quiet road. It is a nice mix of early 20th century charm and modern with spacious living room, kitchen, and bedrooms. The living room and large deck allow unobstructed views of the water. The home is well-kept, clean, and includes everything you need for a pleasant getaway. And, it is a short (10 min.) drive to the shops and restaurants in Kilmarnock. A relaxing, recommended stay.

This house was a great place to stay. Everything was in perfect order and the location was excellent. I had one question during my stay and they were immediately available to help and were super friendly.

We absolutely loved staying here! We brought our boat along, the marina is within walking distance and even though we got rained out, coming back to this house made our weekend stay well worth it.

I preface by saying we are super hosts of a boutique Airbnb with luxury amenities. We understand just how much work it takes to maintain a property & provide a great experience to all. The location is fantastic. Very quiet street within a working class neighborhood. Neighborhood kids and puppies running around their front yards, happy as can be. Police actively patrolling the area. We felt very safe and I really enjoyed the back patio, overlooking the creek. What a treat! Walkable to the gorgeous waterfront. The house layout was great, rooms large, beds comfortable. Toiletries are not provided (no shampoo/conditioner).Piping hot shower water, nice cold AC. Towels were clean, plentiful, but stained. Like many parts of the home (kitchen towels/utensils/ sponges/tile/etc), it’s just time to replace. Again, it’s not necessarily dirty, that specific flooring is notorious for transferring its print, but your feet will look grimy. Great choice for a budget family option. Would stay again!

This place was wonderful! Beautiful water view in a lovely neighborhood. Great environment to reconnect with old friends and everything you could want available. Highly recommend!!
