This Home is located in the peaceful, exclusive setting of the Skiff Cove development,
with a private pond and gazebo. There is plenty of room for Hiking, Biking (5 bicycles of different sizes), or Walking with a Nature Trail bordering the water’s edge. Make sure to stop and watch the wildlife or enjoy swinging over the bank’s edge. There are deer, rabbits, squirrels and turkeys that call this 26 acres home. This wildlife experience will leave lasting memories for you and your family. You can also Drive, Walk or Bike to Virmar Beach.
Explore navigable Hacks Creek in your own boat or the kayaks (3), a paddle board and canoe included on your reservation. You will see the many species of the birds that inhabit Hacks Creek; Bald Eagles, Great Blue Herons, Brown Pelicans, Ospreys, Hummingbirds, Bluebirds, Great Egrets, a variety of ducks and an occasional Swan. You can even make out into the mouth of Potomac River entering the Chesapeake Bay, a mere four hundred waterway yards distance. Seeing the sun rise or sun set on the Chesapeake or dolphins swimming beside you is just a paddle away. These are sights to treasure.
Once back from exploring, crab, fish, relax with a book or just sunbathe on the
spacious dock. Crab traps, a crab steaming pot and outdoor grill are provided. Bring
your own fishing gear as perch, spot, sea trout and rockfish are just a few of the many
species you can catch. Additionally, this area of the Chesapeake Bay is a prime fishing area with several charter fishing trips available.
Hacks Creek is protected from heavy wind and weather, so you can enjoy tubing,
skiing, swimming and if you want sand between your toes, there is a public sand beach
area on the Chesapeake Bay within walking/biking distance on the front edge of the Skiff Cove property.
On a clear night, relax on the back deck, hammock, pier or lounge chair in the yard and take in the Milky Way, North Star, satellites passing overhead or thousands of beautiful stars. There are also the sounds of nature; an owl, geese, crickets, tree frogs and maybe a distance horn from a passing ship traveling the Chesapeake Bay.
Gather for a private dining event on the deck, or take advantage of the large back yard
overlooking the water. The back yard is spacious enough to accommodate Weddings,
Birthday parties, or if you are a business, this is ideal space and view for an Oyster roast or crab feast. Catering for such events is available.
The Northern Neck offers plenty of alternative activities. You can cruise to historic
Tangier or Smith Island, enjoy highly rated or family oriented golf courses, book a
charter fishing trip, visit several local museums, boutique or antique shops and
vineyards, all of which are close at hand. While you are out, have superb lunch or
dinner at one of many restaurants that offer reasonably priced menus or fine dining
venues. Locally caught seafood and locally produced wines are available for you to
enjoy.
