Everything is close by. The cottage is located at the top of “the Point” and a short walk to the public beach and the town fishing pier.Continue your stoll along the Boardwalk and to the town center where you will find a newly-energized commercial district with shopping and dining.
Want to ride? Rent a golf cart. They’re legal on our streets. Colonial Beach was designated as a golf cart community in 2002.
Come and enjoy Virginia’s Northern Neck. Bring the family and learn about our history, experience our small-town atmosphere, and have an old fashioned get-away. We’re perfectly situated on the Potomac River just an hour and a half drive from Washington, D.C. or Richmond.
