The structure itself is a little dated as is the neighborhood but other than that this was a great stay. The location is quiet. Not a lot going on around the area but a short hop to the beach and plenty of places to eat. If this home was available we would absolutely be booking again.

Early Thanksgiving weekend

We prepared a full Thanksgiving meal using only provided kitchen tools. Crock pots available, pans etc. We did not cook the turkey on site. Great house and rec room! Very much enjoyed!

Excellent location!

This home is in a fantastic location in the Norfolk area with quick access to interstate system for travel East or West. We had a lovely day at Ocean View Beach on the bay, quick access to the naval base and a great afternoon dining and shopping in VA Beach. The home accommodated our party of 9 easily. Very clean, very comfortable and every detail was noticed and appreciated. Things like extra toilet paper, soap, shampoo and cleaning products were available to our party until we got to the local Walmart to buy our own supplies. Excellent communication with the host was noticed prior to our arrival when we asked about a grill. They immediately honored our question by purchasing a grill for use at the home! Our family travels often and always use VRBO for rentals but this home and owner exceeded our expectations. We sincerely appreciated quick responses to questions toTaunya and would stay again when we revisit the area.
