Perfect Ocean View Waterfront Home

My family had a wonderful stay at Jeanie's waterfront home. The house was really lovely, very comfortable and spacious, and was well stocked for all of our needs. The beach was perfect and we loved how close it was to the fishing pier which we ended up walking to along the beach daily! I would definitely stay here again!

Too Short!

Wonderful stay, it just went too fast. A couple of suggestions: I did not see an ironing board or iron, also, not enough toilet paper for 5 people. You have a wonderful place. Thank you for sharing it with us!

Great mother & daughter trip

My mom and I decided to book a spur of the moment beach trip. We kept coming back to this house. It was a great stay, close to the beach, and the house was so clean. Highly suggest eating at Swell Bar and Grill while there which is only 3 minute drive - fresh seafood and friendly service. Kim and Jeanie, the hosts, were super communicative. Check in and check out was a breeze. Thank you for opening up your home! Truly a gem of a stay.

Spring Break

Jeanie and Kim's house was wonderful. All we needed to do was get groceries from the store and we were set for our short spring break trip - everything else was provided! Direct access to the beach, plenty of outdoor space to enjoy the view, ample area in the house to be together or for alone time.

Comfortable, accessible, & accommodating!

My family and I rented the house and cottage and both were lovely, cozy, and had everything we needed and more! This is also one of the only vacation rentals we’ve stayed in that had great working AC & wifi. The property was perfect and we appreciated the accessibility for the in-laws. We will 100% be booking again for next year!

Beatiful home, great location,

We stayed 7 nights end of July 2023, this is our 5th year coming to Norfolk VA, and this has been the best overall rental we rented. The beach was mostly private, the house was plenty roomy for all of us. Huge deck, outside shower to clean off after the beach, AC works great, beds were super compfy, and had everyhting and then some for our stay. We also loved being so close to the fishing pier, the kids loved fishing. Thank you so much for helping us make the most out of our stay.

Beach getaway

The house is very large. Nicely furnished and decorated. We had thanksgiving diner there with 7 gilts and 4 children and the dining room was more than adequate. Nicely appointed kitchen where we prepared the meal. The beach is a very short walk. We would definitely like to come back again maybe in the warmer months. The owners always responded to emails or Vrbo messages promptly
