Beautiful property for relaxation and play!
We had a wonderful stay. Lisa is a great host who definitely thinks of all of the little things that boost an already 5 star accommodation up to a 5 star plus! She was quick to respond to the dingle question I had We’ll definitely look to stay here again, especially during warmer weather when we can take full advantage of all the property has to offer. The dogs lived it too!

Peaceful and Relaxing
Great property with amazing views and amenities on property. The town of Deltaville had all your essentials and the drive to and from Williamsburg/Yorktown, etc. is not that far. Great place to stay and the experience with the host was outstanding. The home had everything you needed and the wrap around porch and open windows provided a view of the bay at all times.

Looking for Privacy - Avoid like the plague.
We went for our anniversary and found the house to be very lovely, however, hours after settling in we wished we had never booked. A man,Todd, who lives next door: decided to mow in the dark. This took Lisa the “host” two in person visits to quiet him for the night. We assumed that the rest of the trip would be okay, since we were already paying. No, more of the same. Blaring music the entire next day and evening. Instead of the “host” apologizing she said it might be better if we left. I said no thank you because it would be too far to drive at night. I then called VRBO to explain the horrendous situation. I will never rent from this town again.

Quiet getaway in a well-appointed home
We had a nice relaxing vacation with our two small dogs at this property. The screened porch was especially great, hanging out with the dogs who were barking at boats, drinking coffee and reading while listening to the water. The house is very well furnished and comfortable. The host was very responsive to emails. The only caveat is that Deltaville itself is very small, and the few restaurants are only open Thursday, Friday, Saturday, maybe Sunday, with the exception of the Chinese restaurant, which was mid at best. All that to say, be prepared to bring your own food and cook, if you're staying early in the week. There is a small grocery store nearby, and kitchen had everything we needed, so that was no problem for us. All in all, a great stay in a tiny quiet town.

Spring Break 2024
My husband and I wanted a getaway for ourselves, our daughter and son-in-law, and our two grandchildren (ages 8 & 10). We were familiar with the Topping area, but wanted a house where the Rappahannock River meets the Chesapeake Bay. Ship’s Watch was the perfect location, the house was amazing and Lisa was fantastic. The house was exactly as advertised…all of our needs were met ( actually exceeded our expectations). There were indoor and outdoor activities that kept everyone happy. The kitchen was well stocked, the house was very clean and the views of the water were superb. Lisa was very attentive and had excellent communication with us…from the moment of booking the property until we were headed home, after our stay. Thank you, Lisa. We look forward to another visit to Deltaville!

Great stay on the bay
This was an especially nice place to stay. Very nicely modernized home with a spectacular view of the bay, especially at sunrise. Lots of extras, such as fully stocked crab pots and kayaks, along with lots of goodies inside. The owner was very flexible at the end when we had to stay extra to resolve a car problem, which we really appreciated. Highly recommend.

Perfect getaway
This was a perfect getaway for our family, including adult children and our small fur babies. We spent time crabbing, playing outside games and card games. Meals on the screened in porch when weather permitted. I can't imagine needing anything that wasn't readily provided to us. If you are looking for a quiet getaway, no hustle and bustle THIS is the place to be. We will return!! Thanks again for sharing your beautiful home.

Fabulous place to stay!!
Ships Watch is stunning. The views are spectacular--with lots of places to enjoy them--the captains chairs on the pier, lawn chairs, awesome screened-in porch and nearly every room in the house. Beautifully decorated inside, with thoughtful touches for a wonderful stay. We had a group of six and it worked out great. Loved exploring this beautiful area. Highly recommend!!
