James River Waterfront with spectacular views across the river from Williamsburg

4,100 square feet lovely private brick 4 bedroom waterfront home directly on the James River with water access and spectacular water views. Beautiful sunrises and wildlife to view daily. Great quiet location near many tourist destinations including Busch Gardens, Water Country, Colonial Williamsburg, Jamestown, Yorktown, and Chippokes State Park. Lovely Historic Smithfield is 25 min away. Our property is waterfront just steps away from the water. Our property is large -your fellow travel partners will have plenty of privacy. There are two kitchens one kitchen on the main floor and one on the garden level. Children are welcome. High Chair and Pack and Play available on request.

We didn't want to leave!
We enjoyed our time at this beautiful property. The view out over the river was spectacular and we could even see the fireworks from Busch Gardens on Saturday nights. The ferry is very easy to access and we found plenty to do on both sides of the river. The house is well stocked and cooking was easy in this kitchen. Lots of room for our family of 6. Thanks for a great stay!

This home is amazing! Everything was great the view, spacious, comfortable, peaceful secluded but just a short ferry ride to a beautiful town that has everything you need and want. I appreciated the nice and plentiful towel sets. The host were nice, accommodating and very responsive. Im already thinking of a reason to return to the area just stay here again. THE VIEW is breathtaking

Lovely place
We had a fun and relaxing time here. It was clean, spacious and in a great location. We had 6 people and there was enough room for everyone. The home was stocked with basics in case you forgot something and was only a half mile from the ferry. Go to the cupcake place that is nearby if you can, you won't regret it!

Perfect place on the James river.
Very spacey 3 level house with an awesome view and a private beach. Loved the big bay window in the kitchen. 4 large TVs with premium channel packages. Rode the ferry, did the kayak and Chippokes park. The hosts were very responsive and helpful. Enjoyed the little town of Surry, monster sub at the Ham shop and treats at the cupcake shop. Had a wonderful time at this property!!

Great property. The pics don't do it justice. The views are spectacular. The hosts are always available if need be. Right at the ferry that takes you to Jamestown, Williamsburg and Yorktown. We would never hesitate to use again.

Wonderful large home by the river
We all enjoyed our stay in the home. Great mattresses, plenty of space, full kitchen supplies, and perfect location for visiting Williamsburg and Jamestown. The view from the kitchen of the river was perfect, kayaks a great addition, and location felt secluded. The family loved it.

This is such a wonderful property- the location is perfect for all your tours, Busch Gardens, Colonial Williamsburg, Jamestown…the ferry was simple to use and close to the house. Speaking of, such beautiful views- what fun to watch all the wildlife and to just relax! There was more than enough room for us all- hoping to come back again one day.

Amazing!
The location was wonderful. Close to plantations, parks and Historic Smithfield on the Surry side of the James River, and 5 minute ride to catch the ferry to cross the James over to Jamestown and Williamsburg. The home is beautiful and exactly as seen in pictures. The kitchen was extremely well stocked. Morning coffee on the deck was wonderful. We plan to return!
