Half Shell Haven: an escape to the land and sea perfectly outfitted for enjoying the fruits of both, in what we like to call "low country" Virginia. The Haven is a beautifully maintained, open concept home with 3 bds and 2 baths that can comfortably sleep 8. A full kitchen and dining area (in- and outdoors) are at your disposal for enjoying the local bounty with friends and family. The backyard includes a game shed (with bar!), a hot tub and a private dock for crabbing or kayaking, or both.
The space: Half Shell Haven has all the amenities to make you and yours feel right at home during your stay. The outdoors give access to the best of both worlds, with the private dock and waterfront access as well as trails throughout the wooded property.
The living room includes a TV with access to multiple streaming services, including Netflix, Disney and Fubo. The living room is wrapped in walls of windows to showcase the beautiful setting; a sliding door opens to the patio (with dining table and hot tub). The wood stove is available for use, subject to the owner’s express prior approval.
The kitchen is fully equipped with everything you’d need to prepare a home cooked meal, if that’s the plan. Full pots / pans and baking ware set, as well as pantry staples. Available for use is a Keurig coffee machine, a toaster, hand mixer and waffle maker. An island with chairs for two is available for a quick bite.
Behind the sliding barn door is the washing and drying machine, along with a filtered water system that makes hot and cold water and ice.
The custom handmade dining table seats six and the dining area is flanked on one side by two leather chairs perfect for an after dinner aperitif.
There are three bedrooms: the primary bedroom, with en suite bathroom and private patio, has a queen bed; the second bedroom has a queen bedroom; and the third bedroom has a day bed with a trundle bed, both of which provide single beds.
The third bedroom with day bed works just as perfectly as an office, with the day bed for a comfortable seat and a desk for when more focus might be demanded… WiFi is quick and reliable. Samsung monitor added. Watch TV or hook up your computer for a larger screen view!
The second bathroom is a full bathroom with bathtub.
The outdoors will keep your family equally entertained. A covered porch faces the front yard, while a back porch area, with picnic table and hot tub, overlook Winter Haven Harbor. The primary patio is the third patio.
The backyard includes a game shed (made from a converted garage) with arcade games, a television and a bar with refrigerator. An outdoor shed houses all of the supplies needed to enjoy a day on the water, including water toys and fishing poles.
A private dock, with glide rocker, is the perfect place to watch the sunset or catch crabs and shrimp in the right season. Our family loves to do sunrise and sunset yoga and other workouts from the dock.
Just a short 3 mile drive gets you to Bethel Beach! A scenic trip opens to a beautiful area to relax and enjoy the outdoors.
Other things to note: The home has a Blink video doorbell. It also has 2 Blink outdoor security cameras: one facing the driveway on the side of the home and one facing the backyard above the doors of the Outdoor Shed. All cameras are disarmed during a guests stay which means it is not recording. We only arm the system when the property is not in use. Please let us know if you have any questions about the security cameras.

What lovely spot this was! The house was super clean and so many amazing welcoming touches from the extra toiletries to the old bay chip’s and dip to the guest book. We loved using the boats and catching crabs off the dock. We’d love to stay here again.

We spent our 63rd anniversary and. My 83rd birthday at this superior property. Family joined us. We crabbed with hand lines, floated on inner tubes, kayaked, played games, ate meals in the outdoor living and dining room and ate a fabulous restaurant meal at The White Dog in Mathews. We explored the areas of the Chesapeake. It doesn’t get any better than this!

What an awesome home! The location is fabulous. The house is very well stocked with everything you need to be comfortable for your stay. The game room is great. There is a lot of activities to do without leaving the house. Our family of 8 (6 adults and 2 kids) fit nicely. We caught blue crab and cooked them one night. Very quiet, peaceful and relaxing. It is nicely secluded for privacy. Lots of wildlife. Communication was great. The host was responsive and friendly. Loved our stay

Located off a quiet private lane, through a wooded drive, the property opens up to broad views of Winter Harbor Haven. The views are soothing, the house immaculate, and the hospitality gracious. Jennifer has thought of everything, from filtered water, to kayaks and beach chairs, to throw blankets, to toiletries, all you need to relax and just enjoy. House lives larger than it is, private space for everyone. Comfortable beds and linens. Loved sitting on the porch off the primary in the evening as a summer storm came rolling in. Lazy time on the dock. Best of all, we didn't have to leave our two dogs behind, they got a vacation too.We loved our stay and will be back again.

Perfect Stay
We have stayed at a ton of rentals and this was truly the best. The hosts have thought of everything; from kayaks, to comfortable places to hang out, this house has it all. It was the perfect Spring Break getaway, we took advantage of the great restaurants nearby and had a really wonderful family vacation.

We all thoroughly enjoyed staying at this property. It was clean it had tons of amenities. The playroom was a huge hit with the young ones and my daughter and I love sitting in the Adirondack chairs watching the water in the sunset. My son-in-law enjoyed keeping us warm with the stove. He was our wood hauler. We would definitely rent this property again.

Absolutely Fantastic! Our stay at Half Shell Haven was so much more than expected. Everything we needed was provided. Comfortable beds/pillows! Peaceful and quiet! Waking up to the sounds of nature and sunshine and having coffee on the covered porch with a ceiling fan to circulate the air. Will be staying again. Highly recommend this place for vacation.

Maximum tranquility
It's rare that I've gone to a rental home and thought to myself "I'd change nothing," but here we are. The decor was tastefully curated and arranged, with careful attention to space, color, and detail. There is excellent access to the water and a vast array of aquatic activities to take part in along with the equipment, not to mention the privacy to do so in any manner one sees fit. We will definitely return. Paradise.

Perfect Getaway
We had an awesome weekend at the Half Shell Haven. It is a beautiful property, inside and out. I really can’t say enough good things. Our kids ranging in ages from 5 to 10 years old had an amazing time - as did the adults. The kids loved the game room and fishing and crabbing from the dock. This was the perfect house to enjoy the long weekend with family and friends. Thank you Jennifer for being such a kind and wonderful host! I can’t wait to make the Old Bay chips and dip again - what a nice touch 👌

Our stay was excellent. We enjoyed the amenities and the various options to choose from (tea, types of water, etc.). Being close to the water we expected the house and the description of it to be exactly as advertised and it was. The views are amazing. Even short walks around the property are treats. The house was clean. All the bedding fits our family’s comfort needs. A private getaway is indeed this house. We will look forward to stopping through again. Thank you for everything!

We had an absolutely wonderful stay at Half Shell Haven! The home exceeded our expectations, it’s even more beautiful than the photos. We were in town for a friend’s wedding, and our host, Jennifer, went above and beyond by leaving us a thoughtful card and gift. The house is cozy, well-equipped with everything you might need, and perfectly captures the charm of Virginia coastal living.The rooms and beds were so comfortable!! The kitchen is well stocked for any meals you may desire to create. And so many fun games as well! The water access was fantastic, even with the extra rainfall from an incoming storm. We enjoyed our time so much that we’re already planning to return with family and friends to experience more of the area and all the fun this home has to offer. Highly recommend!! Especially if you are traveling with a pet, our senior lab enjoyed her stay immensely as well.

Summer Vacation
Absolutely Beautiful! The is kitchen fully equipped, beds and pillows so comfortable and the sheet cool. We enjoyed the boat dock and the game room. The round swinging chairs were an additional surprise and this area with the vine background was the perfect area for selfies if you do social media. The grounds were wonderful for a peaceful walk to get your steps in and my husband ran for a few miles down the local road to get the early morning run. Haven beach was beautiful! The work and new sand was greatly appreciated. Thank you Mathew’s County for the upgrade and improvements. We hope to return next year.

Awesome
The house is beautiful and is furnished beautifully. It was immaculate when I arrived. You have any and everything you could want to cook, in the bathroom, extra covers, etc. It has a game shed, floats, kayaks, fishing poles, crab pots, a propane grill, and an inflatable hot tub, just to list some of the amenities. It is very private with beautiful landscaping and a beautiful dock. The property is only a few minutes away from Aaron Beach, Bethel Beach, Haven Beach and the town of Matthews. Jennifer, the owner is outstanding. She responds right away to any correspondence and makes sure you have everything you need and want. I felt so comfortable there and I love this property. I had an awesome time and I am looking forward to coming back!

A perfect family getaway
This property surpassed our expectations. We are a family of 4 with elementary aged children who absolutely loved vacationing here as much as their parents. The game/bar room cannot be beat. Everyone becomes a kid. Jennifer has thought of everything to make your stay wonderful. The house decor is wonderful as though at a boutique hotel just for you. The grounds gave our dog incredible roaming space and the dock was an incredible oasis for all of us. We got to crab with our kids - a memory for a lifetime! Kayaking was easy and so much fun even with your kids. Matthews and Gloucester were great to visit but honestly all you need is a good grocery shop and to hang out at the house. We compoetely unplugged and didn
