Montross, Virginia
Come enjoy this historic home and estate. The views are spectacular and will take your breath away! The property features a historic home, secluded privacy on over 11 acres of waterfront, mature trees and stunning views of the river.
The home is old and has all of the interesting nuances of a historic home that has been added onto over the years. Despite this, all major appliances, utilities, HVAC and equipment have been recently replaced and the house gets regular updates each spring and fall. The property itself sits atop a steep bank over the river which is part of the reason why the views are so stunning. At the base of the bank and directly adjacent to the property is a small public boat launch and a sandbar. At the other end of the property where the grade is more gentle you will find the boat slips, small boat shed and a sandy walk in for launching the smaller boats.
When your here, it's easy to forget the rest of the world. The house has been in our family for 5 generations. Before that it was home to a local waterman who worked the bay harvesting oysters and crabs. Earlier still, before the house stood, the land was a frequent fall gathering spot for local tribes who used the bluff to roast oysters. Arrowheads and pottery are still found from time to time in the fields.
The covered pier is provided for guests who would like to bring their own boat. If you don't have your own boat feel free to use one of our kayaks, sunfish or canoe. Fishing is good and many guests have good luck directly off the pier. Others choose to paddle out to nearby Sharkstooth Island and fish along the way. Please note, the pier and boathouse are at water level while the house sits atop a small bluff. As such, guests with health issues which make inclined paths difficult may prefer to walk or drive to the public pier on the other side of the property.
2015 was the first year we have offered the property to the public and the response has been overwhelming. Currioman Landings is a very special place to us, we are sure that you will enjoy it as much as we do. Since 2015 we have been continually improving the property to ensure that not only do you have a pleasant experience but that every time you come back there is something new to see and enjoy.
For years this has been a sleepy part of the world, home to farmers, watermen and few others. Making our home available to the public is a part of our family’s mission for rural preservation. We believe that history and open spaces are critical and that they must be preserved and enjoyed by all. For that reason 100% of all rental income is invested for preservation of the property and the protection of local farm lands from development.
Come sit on the swing, look out over the river and get back to the things that matter most.
We hope that you will visit Currioman and enjoy it as much as we do.

Ideal location for our family break to enjoy the Northern Neck. Wonderful for kayaking, hiking, biking. Property is well appointed with stocked kitchen and everything needed for a relaxing stay. A great balance of modern amenities and historic charm. Host is communicative and responsive.
We loved the porch, great view and the landscaping is beautiful. The owner was very responsive to our needs. We hope to return in the future.
We loved our stay at Currioman Landing. The location was breathtaking and the house was charming. I have never seen a rental as well stocked as this one was. There were way more kitchen items, toiletry products, and cleaning items than I have at home I think. We had six adults on their phones and tablets, and the internet connection worked very well. My only suggestion is the house could use a bigger tv. I think it was the most peaceful place I have ever stayed.
Easy. No complaints.
Our whole family loves staying here. This is a repeat place for us and before we left this time we were already talking about future visits. It’s so incredibly beautiful and peaceful, and offers lots of opportunity for our kids, as well as us, to explore and also enjoy quality family time together. If you enjoy music in the home, bring your laptop and plug it into the speaker system and enjoy your favorite tunes while cooking or hanging in the living room.
Joe's house was comfortable with amazing views over the bay. The property is private and our dogs had a great time running around in the open space and venturing down by the water. It was a cold weekend so we weren't able to use the outdoor amenities much, but we recommend the rental specifically for these amenities in warmer months! The new HVAC systems worked great and kept us warm throughout our stay. The host does a great job of describing the property in the listing's description so be sure to read if you're picky when staying in a historic home. The interesting nuances of home additions create a quirky layout of many rooms on the first floor. We also encountered some bugs and ants during our stay, but nothing that would drive us away. Thanks for a great weekend retreat!
This was a very quiet location on a rise above the river. Our dog had a great time exploring and playing in the water at the boathouse. We plan to return next year and bring our boat. The house was very clean and comfortable. The views are amazing!
Home was lovely and comfortable. Views were great. Weather cooperated and beautiful sunsets. Also loved the open space around the home and the privacy! Will definitely come back.
Very enjoyable - spacious rooms; lots of games and videos; beautiful views; and great water access.
Joe's house is comfortable and serene, with beautiful water views and peaceful sounds of nature. Joe is a wonderful host!
The house and the amenities were top notch! The house is so charming and met all of our needs - we had 4 adults and 2 dogs and we were all very comfortable. The house came with everything you could possibly need (all paper products, cleaning supplies, extra towels - everything is there)! The kitchen was VERY well equipped with all of your cooking needs (plenty of pots, pans, utensils, plates, etc). The outside grounds were amazing and the views were awesome. Best of all, Joe the property manager, was very responsive and kind. We will definitely be back as we loved every minute we were there. It was easy to unwind, relax and enjoy time with the family and pups. A very memorable vacation!
The house is older with huge amounts of character. Lots of little details in the house and the decor make it a charming place to be. It was very clean and tidy. The beds are all comfortable, with plenty of linens and towels and the bathrooms are up to date, clean, and well equipped with shampoo, conditioner, etc. The kitchen appliances are all pretty new and clean and the kitchen itself is incredibly well equipped. Thought has been given to ensure this house has everything you need. The outside was perfect for our kids and dogs. Lots of space to run around, plenty of water-based activities to keep them busy, and the most spectacular views, really breathtaking. It's very peaceful and tucked away from the neighboring properties. We visited Montross. The food lion and vegetable stand were well stocked, the coffee shop was great and we had a fun evening at the brewery. We had a wonderful time staying at this beautiful property and will definitely be booking again.
Thank you so much for allowing us to have your place for Memorial Day weekend. We had a small event here that turned out absolutely AMAZING. The owner was quick to respond and so flexible with our plans. The house was very well stocked with linens, and kitchen supplies. The property is beyond breathtaking. Plenty of space and privacy over looking the water. The boat ramp just pass the house is an added bonus. The covered boat slip is perfect to park the boat. We had a fantastic time and thank you for sharing it with our friends and family!
This was a great find. One of the greatest views I have ever seen. The pictures do not do it justice. You need to see it to believe it. The host was fantastic and quick to reply to any questions. If you are looking for a great getaway place close to DC that is relaxing and peaceful this is the place.
