The Robin's Nest at Yankee Point is located in Lancaster County in the Northern Neck region of Virginia. A unique waterfront vacation retreat, this dog friendly property offers guests modern amenities and convenience in a spectacular natural setting on the water.
Sail in! Paddle out! The four bedroom / two bathroom cottage is a boater's and paddler's paradise with 500ft of serenely protected waterfront and quick access to the Rappahannock and Corrotoman Rivers, and the Chesapeake Bay. All year long, take advantage of a private pier and full service Yankee Point Marina, only two minutes by boat or car. Kayak, canoe or enjoy our new standup paddleboards in the spring and summer. In the fall and winter, cozy up to one of the three fireplaces in the cottage after a day of sailing, paddling, fishing or hunting.
The Robin's Nest is only about an hour from Richmond and a little more than two hours from DC. The gorgeous drive will take you through the lovely Virginia countryside and by a few of the country’s most historic landmarks. It's close enough for a romantic getaway or a longer family vacation.
