Spend your Chesapeake Bay Vacation at our historic Virginia inn
The North River Inn is housed in three distinct historic structures, each on a different location on this 100-acre estate. Our historic Virginia inn includes the Creek House, Toddsbury Cottage, and Toddsbury Guest House. All are on the water, at the ends of private lanes, with exquisite views and river access. Every room has its own ambiance and appeal, with luxurious linens and appointments, exquisite 18th and 19th century family antiques, private baths, air conditioning, and telephones. From a single room to a complete house, from an intimate honeymoon guesthouse all to yourself to facilities for meeting groups up to twenty, we can tailor our accommodations to fit your needs. The North River Inn provides everything you need for your Chesapeake Bay vacation. Create one of your favorite Virginia getaways now!
Families Welcome
At the North River Inn, we welcome families with children under twelve at Toddsbury Cottage. Come and enjoy a retreat with your children, in activities that recall an earlier time : fishing, crabbing, canoeing, walking, reading books and playing games. Daylong excursions to Williamsburg, Yorktown, Jamestown, and the historic Northern Neck are all easily accomplished from the Inn. At the end of the day, come back to luxury and quiet, in the privacy of your own quarters.

Creek House
Originally designed by renowned preservation architect Thomas Waterman, Creek House is patterned after British colonial homes in the West Indies. Tall French doors open onto the tidal creek, bordered by an inviting brick terrace and charming walk accented with flowering trees. Creek House, the largest of the three Inn buildings, houses four separate guest rooms, and is also where we serve our "family style" breakfasts on weekend mornings
