The second smallest county in Virginia, Mathews is practically surrounded by the Chesapeake Bay and many of its unique rivers and creeks. The Chesapeake Bay that inspires those of us who call this beautiful place our home as well as the lucky few who have discovered this truly rare “Pearl of the Chesapeake”. Without heavy tourism or development, our county has maintained its friendly small-town nature, but still boasts many award-winning restaurants, art galleries, unique shops, library and one-of-a-kind museums. Mathews County also boasts some of the most gorgeous waterfront sunsets you will ever see, as well as unparalleled stargazing at night with little to no city light pollution. Quiet bay beaches, the freshest seafood, an offshore lighthouse, no stoplights, and several kayak and boat launches help to make this place so special.

We are within an hour’s drive of the Historic Triangle of Williamsburg, Jamestown and Yorktown, as well as several other small and charming waterside towns along Virginia’s Middle Peninsula and Northern Neck.
