Why did we name our place Auburn Skies?

Because of the sunsets! We love the “auburn” shades that fill the evening sky. While each sunset paints its own unique canvass, the auburn tinge remains a consistent theme. 🌅🦀 Mathews County Visitor & Information Center

Another project we completed this spring is making it easier to use our kayaks. 🛶 It is so fun to sit in the water and wait for the fish to start jumping in the afternoon. Now you can use the kayak launch to make the experience even more enjoyable! 🐟🦀

We highly recommend YROC Coastal Bar and Grill in Gloucester, VA. The food is great and waiting for a seat is not so bad when you’re looking at boats and pretty birds. 🛥️🪶🦀

We enjoyed getting to see so much local art and talent at Mathews Market Days this last weekend. We think this pottery piece makes a great addition to Auburn Skies. The turtles at Auburn Skies are shy but will still come by to visit. 🐢

We want yall to meet the owners of Auburn Skies. Rodney and Elizabeth are from Alabama and fell in love with the town of Mathews a few years ago. This love for the area led to them uprooting from Alabama, and moving to Virginia for the beautiful bay view! They are so excited to share with others their peace of paradise on earth. They hope their guests will enjoy Auburn Skies as much as the more permanent guests (herons, crabs, seagulls and eagles!) 🦅🦀
