We had so much fun here and the place was great! Exactly like the pictures. Communication was great with the host, and they do a good job keeping up with the place. I would 100% recommend this place to anyone!
Overall great experience. Owner very responsive to a few minor maintenance issues. The pool is awesome and where we spent most of our time. Paper blinds in most bedrooms make sleeping beyond sunrise a challenge. A second refrigerator was very helpful.
The size and spread of the property was excellent. The pool was much used and appreciated. The location was excellent. The only negatives that I could comment on was that the kitchen where seems not sufficient in quantity or quality for the occupancy level and price. I understand that dealing with people renting, you don’t necessarily want to give access to high end stuff. For an occupancy of 10, however, the single keurig, that took 3 to 4 minutes per cup to brew was insufficient. We made it work, though. It was a lovely stay, and we all had a good time. Would I do that again? In a heartbeat.
We stayed at Squeaky Shores for 5 nights & it was a great place for 2 families (9 people aged 20+) to get away. The location is remote, but not secluded. Neighbors are close, but it’s quiet.
The pool was nice & clean. But we encountered several hornets in the pool area. We wanted more loungers; there were 2, + a hammock, & a few other seats. They don’t have pool floats or toys but was big enough for tubes and inflatable games. We wanted some lights in the pool for night swimming.
The view was great. No dock for this property, only stairs to a small strip of sand at low tide. A large eroded area had been shored up, but not fenced off, and could be dangerous for children. We wanted kayaks, paddle boards or some way to enjoy the river.
The house was clean & big. When we arrived the AC was set on 80+ & took a while to cool down. Seating in the living room wasn’t comfy. We wanted a larger table for meals. The kitchen had pans and dishes that met most of our needs. Some pans need to be replaced. The fridge ice maker was very slow & we had to get ice. There were A LOT of spiders inside the house. Needs fumigating. Pool table was nice but most of the cues were broken. Couldn’t play darts because all darts were broken.
It was close to stores & restaurants. Walmart, DoorDash, & Amazon deliver there.

Location was very nice. We arrived early were told there was work being done to the property however the neighbors said he left at 10, we arrived around 1230 nobody was there and we were denied early access. Both the property and pool were not clean. Because of construction we could not access the beach. The neighbors allowed us beach access.
Our stay at Squeaky Shores over the Fourth of July week was fantastic! This property was more than spacious enough for our group of ten, which included six adults and four children. With multiple separate areas to hang out, we never felt crowded.The kids loved cooling off in the pool, while the adults spent hours playing billiards in the game room. In the evenings, we all gathered in the open-concept living, kitchen, and dining area to watch TV, play games with the kids, and plan the next day's adventures.We appreciated how well-stocked the kitchen was with pots, pans, plates, and utensils. It was easy to make breakfast every morning, especially with the choice of both a Keurig K-cup machine and a regular drip coffee maker. The ample dining seating meant everyone could eat together comfortably.Checking in was a breeze, and we were grateful for the heads-up from the owners about the gravel road. It was definitely worth the trip off the beaten path!There's so much to see and do in the area, from amusement parks and historical sites to museums and the beach. While traffic was a bit heavy on the Williamsburg side of the York River, that was to be expected during a holiday week.Overall, we had a tremendous time and the property exceeded our expectations. We would absolutely stay here again if we return to the area.
The property was clean and tidy being the first to stay at this beautiful rancher. Fishing is very fun. There are crappies and croakers we found that night crawlers work best. G-town bait and tackle great place for bait cery big nightcrawlers! The fish bite as fast as the sinker goes down! Although there was inclimate weather for half of our trip the game room was awesome, filled with laughs and smiles. From playing pool and darts to a mini pacman game we had a blast. The movie room reclining chairs are also massage chairs definitely a bonus. The way the halls connected was really cool. The Sauna was sweet and relaxing. The house was definitely well stocked with all necessities needed. Owner is quick to respond with any questions or issues. Very peaceful if your looking to get away and escape reality. Thanks you for having our family it was a pleasure to be your guest!
