Welcome to our enchanting vintage cottage on a serene Norfolk creek, a peaceful retreat where natural beauty abounds and every corner invites relaxation. Imagine sipping your morning coffee as the sun rises over the marsh, listening to the soft calls of local birds, or unwinding with a glass of wine as the sky transforms with a brilliant sunset. Nestled on an acre of lush, informal landscaping, the cottage offers an intimate front-row seat to watch the bald eagles, egrets and herons, glimpse fish leaping in the creek, and enjoy the springtime burst of vibrant azaleas.
The cottage’s spacious, open-concept design and walls of windows create a light-filled sanctuary with beautiful water and wildlife views from every room. Ideal for families, friends, or romantic escapes, this single-family home features a fully stocked quaint kitchen, two cozy bedrooms plus a charming enclosed porch converted into a unique sleeping area with a rustic metal shower and private bath. This thoughtfully designed area, complete with extra A/C units and a space heater for cooler months, ensures comfort all year round, while central HVAC keeps the main home perfectly temperate.
Outside, the natural beauty of the creek awaits, with protected wetlands filled with tall grasses and seasonal blooms that add even more charm. Here, nature is the entertainment: relax and watch the birds glide over the water, spot fish darting along the creek, or just enjoy the calmness of the surrounding trees and water. While the creek and marsh area itself is preserved to protect the local ecosystem, which means no water activities, you’re only a mile away from the Ocean View Fishing Pier and Bay Beaches, where you can dive into all your favorite water activities—swimming, fishing, boating, or kayaking to your heart’s content.
Enjoy full privacy in this secluded retreat, set at the end of a quiet dead-end street with a private drive. This cottage retains much of its vintage character, adding a warm and welcoming charm to your stay. While we continue to make updates to enhance your experience, we embrace the home’s history and the unique quirks that give it such personality.
We genuinely hope you fall in love with the beauty of our Norfolk creek cottage and all that Coastal Virginia has to offer. This is a place to unwind, rejuvenate, and create cherished memories. We’re here to make your stay unforgettable! (For same-day bookings, we may need a 2-hour notice to prepare for check-in—please contact us as soon as you’ve booked).
