Hartfield, Virginia

Harfield, Virginia is a quiet, waterside community tucked along the lower reaches of the Piankatank River, where broad river views give way to the open waters of the Chesapeake Bay. Known for its unspoiled shoreline, Harfield offers a sense of old Tidewater Virginia—peaceful, private, and deeply connected to the rhythms of the river.

The area is dotted with waterfront homes, creeks, and working docks, making it especially appealing to boaters, fishermen, and those seeking a slower, more intentional way of life. Just offshore lies Berkeley Island, a natural landmark that helps shelter this stretch of the Piankatank and adds to the area’s scenic beauty and calm waters. The island is a familiar sight from many riverfront properties and contributes to the feeling of seclusion and natural preservation that defines Harfield.

Despite its tranquil setting, Harfield is conveniently located within easy reach of nearby waterfront towns, marinas, and everyday amenities, making it an ideal blend of coastal serenity and practical access. Here, life revolves around the water—sunrises over the river, afternoons on the dock, and evenings shaped by wide skies and quiet tides.
