Summary: Our cottage was the perfect place to post up for a week of exploring Yorktown and other areas in Tidewater Virginia. Very comfortable and well-appointed interior spaces along with inviting and nicely landscaped outdoor spaces. Easy walking distance to the waterfront and historic spots in Yorktown. Owners were wonderful and very responsive to questions.
