College reunion
Our group consisted of six women who Attended JMU together back in the 70s. Everybody enjoyed the house tremendously. They felt it was a perfect venue for our get together. The only things we felt were lacking were towel racks in the bathrooms And little bars of soap for bathing. Otherwise, everything was perfect!

A Fantastic Family Vacation
We had a wonderful multi family vacation at Lyellton House! The house was gorgeous, with beautiful details. The layout was perfect for our range of ages to accommodate naps, older kids getting downtime, and adults staying up late. THE LOCATION! Next to a giant community playground across the street from an ice cream shop and a block from the beach?!? Unbeatable. We hope to return!

Same time, next year
We thoroughly enjoyed staying at the Lyellton house and it met all of our needs- 3 families with kids between the ages of 7-16. The house was spacious, clean, and very well decorated with thoughtful touches all around the house (towels! s’mores, sheets, toiletries!). We enjoyed relaxing in the house on our one rainy day. It was also in walking distance to the riverside beach, ice cream, kids park, restaurants, etc. so very convenient. The owners were very communicative and responsive to our needs, we appreciated that. We would definitely stay here again and enjoyed getting to explore the cute town of Colonial Beach.

Perfect home for a family vacation!
We had a family vacation and this home was absolutely perfect for the group (12 people (9 adults, 3 kids)) stay for a long weekend. There was plenty of space for the group to gather together between the large family room/kitchen space and backyard. In addition, it is located right across the street from an jce cream shop- which was truly the cherry on top. Highly recommend this home for your family/friends getaway!

Beautiful home!
The home has been beautifully renovated and was very clean. It’s walking distance from shops and restaurants, which would be even more fun closer to the summer season when more businesses are open. It was so nice for everyone in our group to have our own room and we loved having two sitting areas to use.
