Our room looked out on the water, literally just 10 feet away. Excellent breakfasts (we stayed two nights) and a very nice tour of the interesting old Gables mansion. There's a nice restaurant just a short walk away.

The Gables would have been enjoyable except for the fish factory smell that required the covering of my mouth and nose to breath, but this wasn't mentioned when booking the honeymoon suite. The suite was beautiful and clean except for the sheets and bedspread & pillow shams--I don't think they were washed.

We truly appreciate the feedback from our valued and many repeat guests over the past 22 years! We regret that you were unaware that Reedville, VA is an historic "the town that fish built" since 1874 or before, and we still have a fish oil processing plant across the creek. Occasionally depending on wind shift, we may get some odor... More

My husband and I stayed at The Gables [Dana Lee Suite] while visitng family over July 4th weekend. We had a wonderful stay. Barbara was so pleasant and makes the best breakfast! We thoroughly enjoy the private tour of the mansion also. We will definitely visit again!

We had a spur of the moment weekend break and spent a wonderful night being taken care of by Barbara. The room was outstanding, excellent location and Barbara's knowledge of the house and history of the area was most interesting and helpful. Breakfast was delightful and we are sorry we were could only stay one night!

The host and hostess were welcoming and friendly. The cottage they have overlooks the water. We sat in our chairs in the grass out back with wine and cheese and watched the boats and an Osprey that had new chicks. We had a wonderful time. We liked the introductions at breakfast as they gave us a chance to meet other... More

My husband and I wanted to take a weekend trip and visit Tangier Island. We chose to say on the mainland in Reedville after a daytrip out to Tangier, which I'm glad we did. The Gables is an interesting old house (your stay includes a tour of the house) and the location allows for an easy walk to supper and... More

The room was lovely, breakfast was outstanding and Barbara the hostess in addition to being delightful, was a gold mine of information as well as a most creative cook. But the icing on the cake was the tour of the mansion with Barbara. Be sure to allow time for it.

We could only stay one night but enjoyed it very much. We loved our room that had a picture window looking out over Cockrell's Creek. It was wonderful to lay in bed and watch the sunrise over the creek as fishing boats motored out for an early catch. Also wonderful was the tasty breakfast followed by a fascinating tour of... More

Thank you Mrs. Clark for your warm, friendly hospitality, a delicious breakfast, and the tour of your elegant home. A most enjoyable stay and the best night's sleep I've had in a long time. We plan to return and will highly recommend The Gables to friends.
