Description

Please note: TWO day minimum....$150 cleaning fee, taxes and pet fees are additional.

The Happy Hippie Cottage was originally purchased in 1965 by our grandfather. He and our grandmother longed for an escape from their life in the city of Richmond, Virginia. Along with their two sons, our father and our uncle, they would spend many a summer day on the shores of the soft, perfectly salty Rappahannock River.

At one point or another, our grandmother, uncle and father would all temporarily call The Cottage home.

The third generation, two sisters, would spend most of our summer days riding our bikes up and down Pops Lane, Norton Point Road and the surrounding streets and eating Grandmas grilled cheese sandwiches in the sunroom amidst games of Gin Rummy. We would make friends at Forneys Corner and down Muddy Gut Road. We would gear up and trek it down to The Point ? which looked tremendously farther away 30+ years ago ? to seek out the other kids of families who still reside down these worn gravel roads.

What everyone who visits The Cottage will tell you ? both present day as well as over the course of the past 55 years ? is that there is something truly magical about it. The peace and relaxation that it offers are immediate, the good times are almost certain to roll and it is truly a gem and magical little space!
