Here Are A Few King Words From Our Past Guests:

⭐️ "Great location away from too many distractions yet right by everything in the city if needed. Would definitely recommend to anyone looking for a place to stay. This place beats 99% of other options in the area!" - Darian

⭐️ "Couldn't have asked for a better place it was a beautiful home with everything you could possibly need and more." - Sheree

☆☆ BEDROOMS + BATHROOMS ☆☆

Each of the home’s bedrooms is designed with guest comfort in mind. Fall asleep in comfortable beds and wake up refreshed for another exciting (or relaxing!) day at the beach.

There are three stylish bedrooms. Get away from the world in a spacious primary ensuite. The other two bedrooms share a second full bathroom.

☆☆ KITCHEN & DINING ☆☆

The kitchen and dining area offer plenty of room to comfortably host family dinners and are outfitted with all the cookware, dishes, utensils, and appliances you will need to cook delicious meals. The dining table can seat up to eight.

☆☆ LIVING SPACES ☆☆

The main level has a living room with two large, comfortable couches and seating for eight, plus a cozy electric fireplace under the TV for relaxed evenings in (it's ambience-only, so no heat output — just the glow).

☆☆ OUTSIDE SPACE ☆☆

While there are plenty of outdoor activities nearby, the house also provides its own outdoor sanctuary for guests to enjoy. Gather around the fire pit under the string lights in the evening, or relax in the backyard with a morning coffee or happy hour drink as the sun goes down.

This property has a Ring camera on the exterior facing the front yard - it does not look into interior spaces.

You're just a 7-minute walk to the beach and boardwalk in Colonial Beach — and even closer to the heart of town. Shops and restaurants begin before you reach the water, so you'll find yourself immersed in the energy of town within minutes. A local favorite, Love Bites, is just a 3-minute walk away, perfect for morning coffee or a light bite. A large grocery store is only a 3-minute drive, making longer stays especially convenient.

Our home sits in one of Colonial Beach's historically significant residential neighborhoods — an area shaped by generations of families and a deep sense of community. The brick home across the street once served as a public school for African American children during segregation, reflecting an important chapter in the town's educational and cultural history. Nearby, First Baptist Church has long been a spiritual and civic cornerstone of the neighborhood.

Historically, this street was once home to a general store and a bakery that served local residents. Over time, it transitioned into the primarily residential setting you see today — authentic, lived-in, and full of character.

This is a real, lived-in neighborhood and our neighbors tend to have company! You'll see friends and family stopping by, kids playing, occasional hangouts happening on the street and sidewalk, especially in good weather.

Guests who appreciate walkability, history, and an authentic sense of place will find this location offers a unique perspective on Colonial Beach beyond the immediate waterfront strip.

Walking is one of the easiest ways to explore. The beach, boardwalk, restaurants, shops, and coffee are all within minutes on foot.

During the warmer months, Colonial Beach operates an antique trolley with a stop near our block that connects key points around town. Golf carts are also a popular way to get around, and rentals are available nearby — a fun and easy option for cruising to the beach or dinner.

If you’re driving, most destinations in town are just a few minutes away, and parking is generally straightforward compared to larger beach towns.

We allow reliably house-trained dogs for a $25 pet fee per dog per night for stays under 7 nights. If you want to bring your dog, please let us know:

- If they are 100% reliably house-trained
- The dog's age

We must approve their stay, but we have never rejected a dog that meets this criteria. We do not allow cats or puppies.

We would really appreciate it if you could bathe your dog before visiting.

** If you're not a pet person, note that we are very good at keeping our homes super clean despite hosting pets.

** Quiet hours after 10pm as this is a residential neighborhood**

** No smoking. No incense. NO PARTIES. The property has smart systems that will alert us in case of a party or smoke. We charge a $500 fee in case of violations. **
