Long Weekend in off season

Great off season place. Location perfect to get to high rise area and bayside quickly. A real neighborhood feel. In-season might be a bit far from beach to tote what one needs… maybe not. The place is so well kept and convenient that we’ll consider a in-season,stay.

Beach Getaway

Shiplap Cottage was perfect! Just the right size for two adults, windows looking out on live oak trees, super clean and comfortable, a very sgort walk to a beautiful, unspoiled part of Virginia Beach and everything we could need or want. Ritamarie and Petie were friendly and helpful but let us have our privacy. Perfection!

This was a lovely little place that was exactly as advertised. Just a very short walk to the beach and a short drive to the downtown area.

A great space for a couple

The apartment was perfect for two. It had everything you need for a comfortable stay. The location is highly desirable - the north end of Virginia Beach is beautiful. It is quiet and uncrowded but stores, restaurants and attractions are easily accessible by bike or car. The host is accessible but mindful of privacy. We had a lovely stay.

The apartment was perfect so neat and clean. Great place to stay if you are looking for a peaceful place on the beach. Great location minutes from Shore Drive and the Chesapeake Bay and First Landing State Park. The Atlantic and the Bay… best of both worlds. We will be back for another stay soon.

The perfect spot in Virginia Beach

We loved the beach cottage! It was the perfect size for me and my wife - the perfect location just a stones throw from the beach and central to other destinations in the area. The neighborhood is so charming and warm (and not at all touristy). The apartment itself was comfortable, cute, and impeccably clean. Ritamarie was incredibly responsive and helpful. We can't imagine staying anywhere else next time we visit.

Great Mini-Vaca!

The cottage was wonderful. The weather was exceptional, for viewing the solar eclipse! The Hostess, Ritamarie, was outstanding! She made my stay extra special for my birthday week vacation. The short walk to the secluded oceanfront was a nice highlight for my stay.

Lovely.

The upstairs apartment was well stocked, even had a container labeled "In case you forgot" with items such as toothpaste. There were interesting books and Virginia Beach visitors information available. The kitchen was stocked with a few spices, lots of pot and pans, and dishes. Overall, it was a very comfortable stay.
