Eastern Virginia's Premier Vacation Escape


Welcome to the Wind Family's "Rappahannock River Luxury," eastern Virginia's premier luxury vacation rental! Pamper yourself in luxury and escape to paradise in this massive, state of the art, 5300 square foot estate with million dollars views only steps away from the scenic Rappahannock River!

Here you will find every amenity necessary to create lasting memories with your family and friends. Watch the sunrise from your bed over an entire mile of water. Enjoy breathtaking views while eating breakfast prepared in your gourmet kitchen before heading to the river! Enjoy sunbathing on our private dock with boat lift and covered deck, head out for cruising and watersports on glassy water as far as you can see. Then enjoy a tropical drink as you relax on floats or catch crabs and rockfish from the dock for the tastiest dinner you can imagine! Get some exercise in the paddle boat, kayaks, canoe, and trying your skills out while cruising up and down the coast on stand up paddle boards--all provided for your enjoyment. When the day is done, head inside where you can challenge a fellow vacationer to billiards, air hockey, foosball, ping pong, cards, or any of a number other games provided with the home. The conclusion to the day--eating dinner off of the multiple grills while relaxing on the deck with a glass of wine will create a memory that will last a lifetime! Words cannot do justice to the experience!

The House:
5300 square foot mansion with state of the art amenities and quality construction. 5 enormous spacious bedrooms, including some with 20+ foot ceilings! Water views from every bedroom in the house! 5.5 baths makes sure everyone has their privacy. The kitchen is completely stocked with everything you need to prepare any meal--no matter how gourmet or complex! Custom, hand made wooden cabinets and high quality stainless steel appliances.

Outside:
Enjoy acres of manicured, green grass in the front yard and breathtaking views of one of the most scenic rivers you will ever see in the back! A private 150 foot pier is all yours to enjoy, including a boat slip and tie line. A hammock also provides the perfect vantage point to savor every moment of your vacation!

Games, Toys, & other Amenities:
Provided for your enjoyment are floats for the river, fishing rods, crabbing equipment, paddle boat, canoe, kayaks, and stand up paddle boards. Furthermore, we provide a corn hole set, and basketball goal in addition to numerous indoor activities including ping pong, billiards, air hockey, foosball, and poker/card table. Have kids? So do we! No one enjoys vacation if the kids are not entertained so we have stocked the home with toys for kids or various ages!

The Area:
Despite it's small size, Tappahannock and the Northern Neck are widely known as a hidden jewel--an absolute paradise and one of Virginia's most amazing regions. Come find out why wealthy retirees from affluent regions flock to our area in droves! Enjoy dinner out at several award winning restaurants. The beauty and majesty of the Rappahannock River is unparalleled! You have not lived until you have watched the sunrise and color the river red from your bed or relaxed on the dock while the clouds turn pink and the day fades away. The river itself is not only known for it's beauty and a true watersports playground but a sportsman's paradise. Many creeks and marshes provide the ideal habitat for wildlife viewing or hunting. You will not find better fishing as dinner can easily be caught from your dock! Experience 10 award winning wineries on the Chesapeake Bay Wine Trail, just minutes from our home, or find out how fresh seafood really taste on the Virginia Oyster Trail. Plan an excursion to the birthplace of Robert E. Lee or George Washington, both a short drive away on the opposite side of the river. Alternatively, catch a ferry to Tangier Island, an island community unlike any other! Within an hour drive, you can be on the Civil War battlegrounds of Fredericksburg, touring historic Colonial Williamsburg, or seeing the state capital, Richmond. Within 2 hours of driving, you can see the pristine sands of Virginia Beach, the beautiful of Charlottesville including Thomas Jefferson's Monticello and the University of Virginia, or head to the nation's capital, Washington, DC.

Beautiful property and great stay
We enjoyed our stay on the Rappahannock River. The sweeping views and large living room definitely allowed for a nice relaxing weekend. The kitchen is more than we needed. I would definitely recommend this one!

Not well maintained house but good location
1* Rating as nothing was fixed from the prior review on this page in Dec 2023. The location is excellent but the place is not at all maintained. The internet issue is not fixed yet so no internet during our stay. Other issues as mentioned by previous reviewer still not addressed like light fixtures are not working, alarm batteries not replaced, Kitchen Island ceiling unfinished, no trash bins in the bathrooms, carpet areas lifted in some areas, door locks not functioning properly. The listing description says 5 bathrooms attached to each room but 3rd and 4th room shares bathroom and 5th bathroom is in the basement which can be assessed from outside the house. Another big safety concern is the dock/pier wood panels were missing or not secured and one of our friend just narrowly missed from fall. The landing into kayak is broken so no way to use the kayaks. Not recommended for stay unless the issues are addressed/fixed.

Great property for our stay!
We had a great stay in Tappahannock for the holidays! The home seemed extremely clean and well kept. Looks like there are some recent new upgrades with flooring and furniture as the home isn't new construction, but that was expected from the advertisement. Ashley was very nice to work with and we enjoyed the wine from Wind Vineyards left on the counter. A must try if you are in Tappahannock! This home isn't in much of a neighborhood, but we felt like we had plenty of privacy and felt safe. I would definitely recommend and hope we have chance to return!

Wonderful location but...
Upon our arrival to the property we were greeted by a triggered security alarm and thereby proceeded to call the property owner for guidance and resolved by her instructions. My family and my first impressions were very positive due to the size of the home, cleanliness, and amazing views to the lake. However, once settled, we started noticing deficiencies within the property (not disclosed on the listing or pictures) such as some light fixtures not working properly, Kitchen Island ceiling unfinished, no closet space or hangers available at the entryway closet for jackets and belongings, carpet areas lifted in some areas (which is a safety hazzard for children and the elderly), smoke detectors not installed, air hockey table not functional (limiting planned activities) and overall a rather outdated property (not expected from the pictures shown and description om the listing). Moreover, upon attempting to connect to the Wifi Network, connection was successful "without internet" (Tried calling the property owner to troubleshoot this issue, but call was "forwarded to a voice message system"). Lastly, on the following day I was given feedback from family members that the pillows had an "old, funky" smell (regardless of covering them with clean linens) and thus requested to bring it up to attention as constructive criticism, and awareness, for other people planning to stay in this property. Overall, we enjoyed our stay and had fun but were dissapointed on the previously mentioned.

River views were breathtaking
Ended up being the two of us so we had a lot of space. Enjoyed cooking dinner and the breathtaking river views. My recommendation is waking up early and catching that sunrise. Would recommend without hesitation.

Completely accommodating
Nice River home that I would definitely recommend to others. The large downstairs kitchen and living room has open space for everyone to gather in the same area. We all enjoyed our private bedrooms. Loved the fire pit and ability to go on the dock. Ashley was very accommodating and we loved the Wind Vineyards Laurel wine! We will be back!

Ladies just having fun
A group of us ladies had a nice stay enjoying the views and cooking in Tappahannock at this beautiful waterfront home. We all had our own rooms to stay in and bathrooms and bedrooms seemed perfectly cleaned. We bought groceries at the local Food Lion and cooked all weekend together. The kitchen was fully stocked with everything we could have needed. We were especially surprised at some of the nice serving dishes available. The large table was more than generous for our smaller group. We sat on the deck and walked down to the dock to enjoy the water. They had some nice Adirondack chairs to enjoy the dock. We didn’t use any of the water toys but thought what a paradise for children. We hope to do our gathering again!
