Gorgeous home, so comfortable and peaceful. Totally modern for a house that is over 100 years. Colonial Beach off-season is so tranquil and spending our holiday there for a few days is exactly what we wanted for a family get together. Megan and Jim made sure we had all the info we needed long before our trip and they absolutely delivered in all categories. Looking for a place to get away and relax without breaking the bank ... this is the place! - A. Drennan We stayed at Megan & Jim’s 320 Colonial Beach home in Virginia for a cousin family get together. 6 adults and 6 kids fit comfortably in the home over 3 nights and 2 full days. There is a park next door the kids could get to from the back yard, the beach was a simple walk across the street, and you could see it from the front porch. The town was peaceful, and the beach was great. We had dinner one night at Margaritas, another at Muse Pizza and Arcade, and cooked out the other night. We highly recommend staying here. -M.

Megan's Airbnb was everything we wanted/needed and more. The location was perfect, the size was just right for my family , the amenities went above and beyond. The best Airbnb we have ever stayed at.

Our family gathered at Megan's house to celebrate my husband's 80th Birthday. We had family of 14 meet there from Hawaii, Oregon, Colorado, Texas, Virginia & the UK. We also had our pets with us. Trip, Darla, & Lulu (dogs) plus our support animals Bunz, & Fieval. Once iI walked through the door, I knew I had picked the perfect place for our gathering. The home is beautiful, comfortable & well equipped. We were in the area during the close of the summer season, which proved perfect for our needs. The weekends were busy with motorcycle & car shows, plus local weekend activities. Monday thru Wednesday it was quiet and serene. The only problem we encountered, was the Delta sensor faucet battery died. I contacted Megan & before I could finish a YouTube on Delta faucets, she answered my email. The faucet was fixed in less than 20 minutes. Our 2 weeks in Colonial Beach made my husband of 60 years very happy. What more can I ask for in life. God bless you both, Megan & Jim!

Excellent home! We cannot say enough about our helpful considerate hosts. The home exceeds the photos shown and the mix of historic and modern is so well done. We were 4 generations and all had room and privacy. Plenty of children’s yard and beach toys and we adults enjoyed the bikes. Loved our evenings at the fire pit also. Beach is lovely and people of Colonial Beach so welcoming. We will return!

The home was absolutely beautiful. We stayed for a family vacation to the beach and the home felt so much like our own. Not having to pack up the car and drive to the beach was a plus since we were in walking distance. Loved the community garden and playground next door. Would recommend and would stay again.

We stayed here for the weekend with my family, 8 adults and 4 kids, and it was perfect. The house had plenty of space and bathrooms for everyone, and everything was very clean and well taken care of. The kitchen was fully stocked with everything we needed to cook, which made meals easy. The location is great, close to restaurants, shops, and anything else you might need. The backyard is gorgeous and spacious, and the front yard is also really nice. There were bikes and other extras available for us to use, which was a fun bonus. Having parking was a big plus, since in this town most places require you to pay for parking. We also rented a golf cart and had a great time driving around. Overall, it was a fantastic stay. We would definitely come back and highly recommend it.

Everything was above and beyond my expectations. The town was so so friendly. Felt like you stepped back in time. The house was just amazing. When they say just pack clothes and food, that was spot on. We had a fantastic time. Highly recommend.

Our multigenerational family had a wonderful stay here. The house has all the amenities and extras that make a vacation with a large group seamless. The home itself is well renovated and thoughtfully designed. Having four bathrooms, plus an outdoor shower, with a tankless hot water heater made returning from the beach easy, even with a large group of kids. There are two washer/dryers, a large refrigerator downstairs and a small beverage fridge upstairs. Our group enjoyed being able to bike and golf cart around town. The house is close to everything and having a playground right next door was perfect for the kids. We would definitely stay here again.

Megan was extremely responsive and helpful with the area being it was our first visit to Colonial Beach! Location is perfect to beach, restaurants and parks but still felt private. Loved our stay there!

Megan was very responsive and flexible. She was able to accommodate us at a short notice. Her house EXCEEDED expectations. We were able to cart/walk to a different coffee shop each morning. The restaurants were homey and tasty! The beach was in walking distance and not overcrowded at all. We DEFINITELY recommend Megan as a host!
