Welcome to the Playground on the Potomac! The old stomping grounds of the DMV from the 1900s, you will love Colonial Beach, its charm, and how quickly you'll feel at home here. The Cottage is located in the Point - a few blocks shy of "downtown" and the boardwalk. All the charm of small town dining and shopping with access to the river, sun, and history.
It's your time - you've earned it. Take a load off and relax at the River Point Cottage. You'll come to find that the beach time is just want you need to unwind and recharge. Colonial Beach is waiting for you - whether you're coming down from DC (1.5 hours), Richmond (1 hour, 20 minutes) to escape busy city life, come down for Tiki Time at the Point.
The River Point Cottage is a short-term winter rental; open to a longer term rental period upon further discussion. Move in ready / furnished. Recently painted, updated with all the modern and cozy amenities you could want. Less than 10 minute walk to the beach; 2 blocks from the bay and 2 blocks from the river. Catch those breezes all season long.

Official lease will be required prior to move in (which includes additional details). 6 months but open to longer rental period upon discussion.
