It was a magical Christmas Holiday at the Christmas Cottage on the Chester River. We loved every moment from sunrise to sunset. We never left the house but had family come join us for breakfast, dinner, gift exchanging and relaxing by the water. We can’t wait for next year already.

A wonderfully relaxing stay!This property is impeccably maintained both indoors and outdoors. The kitchen is thoughtfully stocked with essentials, and the bedrooms and bathrooms are modern, spotless, and feature beautiful views of the lake.The pool is deep and inviting, with ample lounge seating for relaxation (note: the slide pictured is not available for use due to insurance restrictions). The setting is serene, with hummingbirds visiting the garden and sailboats gliding across the lake—an ideal spot for a peaceful retreat.

The listing was exactly as described. It also was very clean and well stocked. It is probably the best stocked VRBO I have ever stayed in. The views were amazing, the pool was great, and we couldn't have asked for anything better. Peter was a great host and was easy to communicate with. He even provided dinner recommendations.

Every summer my family vacations with my best friend and her family. We have 4 adults and 4 kids in our group and we have stayed in a few OBX houses and a few Chesapeake houses. This home was our absolute favorite so far! The house is so tastefully decorated and clean, with amazing amenities! The sliding doors to the screened in sun porch were AMAZING! We loved feeling like we were right there on the water while enjoying family time. We brought a boat and docked right at the house, a super easy process. This was such an amazing perk to this property! Our host, Peter, was so kind, responsive, and helpful! He was attentive to any concerns or needs we had and also gave us many recommendations. We cannot wait to come back!
