You want to feel completely comfortable while on vacation, even if it's just a short getaway. So we have made sure our home feels cozy, comfy, clean & perfectly well suited to full relaxation & high style. No one but those guests on the reservation are allowed on or in the property. No additional guests, friends, or relatives can stop by or come onto the property or come into the house. This is due to insurance rules and city regulations.

We hope you will enjoy our little slice of paradise whether you are boating, fishing, worshipping the sun, playing on the beach, or headed to our charming wineries and restaurants! Situated on a street smack-dab in the center of town, we are about 1.5 short, small-town blocks to the beach & boardwalk. & if it weren't for our lovely tree-lined street you'd even be able to see the beach from our windows. & not just the beach, but we are also just a short block from Monroe Bay. You can see the bay water shimmering from the upper windows on the east side of the house & you can walk to the nearby restaurants to enjoy fresh seafood, lively drinks, and a beautiful sunset! You are also within walking distance of many local restaurants and bars.

From the either of the home's 2 lrg frt balconies, you will enjoy the charming beach cottages along our historic street & listening to the small-town church bells ringing while the outdoor ceiling fans whir overhead & the nearby tree leaves rustle in the wind. The lower porch is spacious & gracious, while the upper balcony is delightful and private. After awakening each morning, head downstairs for a cup of coffee and sit on the front porch, waving & nodding to the folks passing by in their golf carts on their way to a hometown restaurant, bar, park, or beachside setting. This is a golf cart community & you can rent a golf cart from several vendors on the town's main strip, Colonial Avenue. Renting & using a golf cart to get around is absolutely one of the fun parts of vacationing in Colonial Beach. In the evenings, relax on the upper balcony w/a drink & enjoy the sunset, the wind off the nearby water, the stars in the sky, & the exquisite little jewel-box homes lining the street.

On the main level of the home, you'll find comfort & fun & plenty of space to stretch out.
