Although built in 1891 this farmhouse has been totally renovated by a professional designer. The Cottage is filled with coastal colors and accessories so it feels fun and updated but still retains the feeling of walking into a well loved family beach cottage. We are pet friendly as any beach cottage should be and love seeing our guests and their pets enjoying the cottage. Follow the cottage on social media @ BlueOysterCottage for more pictures, design ideas and local places to visit.

Upon arrival you will first enter into a well appointed but charming kitchen with a custom recycled glass island perfect for prepping or serving meals. All the appliances are new including a gas range. The kitchen is stocked with everything you need to cook breakfast , lunch or an elaborate seafood feast from the local waters. There is also a well stocked coffee bar perfectly placed to grab a cup of coffee as you head out onto the porch. Also in the kitchen you will find an enclosed washer and dryer. The kitchen opens up into the large dining area which features a gas fireplace. This is a little tricky to operate so we ask to show you in person if you plan on using the fireplace. The table seats 6 and is perfect for enjoying meals, games or working on a laptop.

The comfortable and cozy living room features a smart TV which will let you log into your personal streaming services and watch your favorite shows. The cabinets are filled with an extensive collection of games , puzzles , and books. There is a small sitting room on the other side of the entry hall with a twin daybed and closet. The daybed is filled with comfortable pillows and is perfect for naps, quiet reading, or as extra sleeping space.

Upstairs are 2 bedrooms, each with vaulted ceilings, decorative fireplaces, and lots of period detail. The larger room has a queen bed and the smaller has full size bed. The fluffy beds, soft colors and fabrics, and sun filled windows overlooking the private yard make you feel as if you are staying in a charming bed and breakfast. Tucked into the hallway is a window seat which seems to be our pet guest’s favorite spot. The narrow and steep staircase is original and adds to the quaint charm of the space.

There is a full bathroom with a tub and shower on the main floor. In the bathroom is a closet with extra towels and necessities. The 2nd floor has a half bath accessible from both bedrooms. There is an adjoining dressing area with mirror for putting on make up. Additionally there is an outdoor shower ( soon to be enclosed) and sink perfect for washing off or cleaning your catch after a day on the water.

The house features a large screened porch with vintage metal furniture including a dining set and the perfect napping glider. Curl up with a good book or a cocktail while enjoying the coastal breezes or watching the beautiful sunsets. This seems to be a favorite spot for all our guests who always comment on how they love looking out on the beautiful and peaceful surroundings and even how soothing the sound of a rainstorm is on the porch’s tin roof.
In the garden shed you will find a Weber kettle for grilling up your catch as well as croquet, badminton, and horseshoes to bring out everyone’s competitiveness. End the evening around the fire pit roasting marshmallows and enjoying the multitude of stars overhead.

New this summer we will offer guests bay access just a few doors down the road( about a 100 yards ) We to offer kayak or SUP access and a small fishing and crabbing area.

    What a gorgeous home! We loved all of the charm in this old beauty. We wanted for nothing during our stay as the house had everything we needed from coffee creamer and sweetener to dog bowls and treats.

    We had such a nice stay at the Blue Oyster Cottage. The house is very comfortable, and was stocked with everything we might need. The entire house was so adorable, but I especially like how they decorated the bedrooms upstairs! I felt that we had plenty of privacy, even though we were in a little neighborhood. I really enjoyed looking through the photo album about the owner's renovation process. Overall, I would definitely book again!

    We had a great time at this charming cottage: remote, quiet, beautiful nature. House was very clean, beautifully decorated and had all the essentials and more! Including sunscreen :) The screened porch was a great place to sip coffee and watch the birds at the bird feeder- and stay away from the mosquitos! Grill was available along with all the supplies. The host provided plenty of recommendations for restaurants (we tried the Dredge, Merrior and Los Compadres- all great!) , things to visit and explore. We loved Wake beach and Hughlett point natural area preserve- highly recommend taking the shore trail (pic below) . Choice of 2 Supermarkets about 15-20 min away. Ride into town is under 10 min. We ventured more often into Kilmarnock , slightly bigger town with a nice park. Host was available when we had questions and responded promptly. We also had our small dog who had the big yard to explore. If you love a nature retreat, this is a great place to enjoy time away from the crowds.

    Very lovely home in a nice and quiet area. The home is beautifully decorated and is well stocked with everything you need. The host goes above and beyond to make your stay enjoyable. Location is convenient to town and a quick trip to Hughlett Point Natural Area Preserve. We visited the beach at Windmill Point which is still under construction, but seems like it will be nice when it is done. Overall, a great place to stay and enjoyed our short time there.

    We stayed through the NewYear and weekend- arrived to delicious cookies! The cottage is very warm and cozy for a winter stay. We lived having the fire pit and the ability to bring our cat. The house is beautifully decorated- a work of art- and for folks who love to cook, the kitchen was set up. We’ve already nooked our next stay!!!

    The the decor was tasteful and the interior spacious. Nice quiet area. Communication was good. The oven needed to be cleaned and the carpet in the living room was stained, but those are truly minor things compared to the comfortable accommodations and special touches of this stay. There were even snacks, water, and dog treats for us upon arrival!

    We loved the thoughtful details in the interior design of the house. It made it feel very homey, and we especially enjoyed spending time in the screened porch that was a refuge during a tropical storm. Access to the Rappahannock River/Chesapeake Bay is less than a quarter mile away and we enjoyed kayaking a short distance to a private beach where our dog could swim while we enjoyed the cool river.

    Beautifully restored farmhouse -the owners had a vision that they brought to life in this wonderful cottage. Screened in porch with comfy glider and bay breezes make for a recipe of relaxation! Listening to the sound of the opening and closing screen door took me back to summers of my childhood and the art of a good nap!! This cottage is amazing, and the owners were so helpful if we needed anything!! The decor is stunning and the surrounding area with the bay and the river is beautiful! I loved the small towns nearby and all they had to offer from delicious seafood to historical sites. I would recommend this place and cottage to anyone looking to get away to a place where time is yours and stress melts away!! Thanks to the hosts for a wonderful getaway!!
