The Crab Shack on Carter's Creek | Cottage in Weems

1 Bedroom Cottage in Weems
Relax and get away....
This rustic cottage on Carters Creek is ideal for a quiet escape from the hustle and bustle. For an individual guest, a couple, a couple of friends or a small family, this is just the right space to decompress.
The Crab Shack is right at the water's edge and its cozy bedroom, dining area, galley kitchen and living room all face the water.
The Crab Shack earns its name honestly...it was originally a seafood processing facility where fishermen brought and sold their catch. The outside of the building is all metal and the inside is a mix of painted and exposed wood, with a striking floor-to-ceiling oyster shell fireplace. Usually guests congregate outside on the patio or dock, but if it's rainy, the porch or indoors is where to be, to enjoy the sound of rain drops on the tin roof.
The Crab Shack is within a ten minute drive of the quaint towns of Irvington, Kilmarnock and White Stone with a variety of shops and restaurants.
There are two cruiser bikes ready to ride along the quiet country neighborhood.
There is one 14' sea kayak stored on the dock for our guests use. It is stored on the dock with a set of KayaArms that allow stable entry and exit from a ladder. Some guests have brought their own small personal watercraft...you can paddle to the Tides Inn faster than you can drive there!
There is also a set of stairs for easy access to in and out of the water for you and your dog. If you plan to get in the water, be sure to bring river shoes! The oyster shells and barnacles are abundant and WILL cut bare feet.
Dogs are welcome for a small fee.
If you've stayed here before, new owners made improvements during the winter of '21-'22! We hope you'll join us!
Update 1/23/24:
Both of our neighbors (one on each side) will be building homes beginning '24 with anticipated completion by fall of 2025. Given The Crab Shack's location so close to the water and being down the slope from the road, we don't expect the residential construction activity to detract from a peaceful vacation, however some occasional construction related noise should be anticipated.
