We invite you to truly get away from it all! Embark on a kayak or stand up paddleboard adventure from our private dock, cycle the endless level country roads, charter a fishing or classic deadrise boat tour, or enjoy a stroll on Bethel Beach Nature Preserve. Of course, you can just spend the day relaxing: rock on the porch, share a private picnic, enjoy a game of horseshoes, fish off the dock, or take a dip in our eco-friendly pool. At the end of the day savor a refreshing drink, take in a beautiful sunset over the water, stargaze around the firepit, and re-charge your romance or reconnect with friends and family. Sleep peacefully in our comfy beds, and wake up to locally roasted organic cofee, and a full and hearty breakfast made with fresh and locally sourced ingredients. Our small town of Mathews offers a variety of unique restaurants, shops and galleries, along with a friendly down home spirit. We are convieniently located to the Historic Triangle of Williamsburg, Jamestown and Yorktown, as well as several other small and charming waterside towns.
