Virginia to see family

Great location, property was perfect, had everything we needed.Very pet friendly as advertised, easy in and out of property. Close to beach and restaurants, very clean and tidy, front area is so relaxing to sit and hang out. The only negative was that the backyard grass was a little too long for our small dog to use for the bathroom.no biggie because the neighborhood is great for walking.

Loved it

The house was amazing. Clean well stocked it had things we forgot to bring as we got in late. Not sure if I liked the front yard or the back yard better. Both fenced in for my dog to enjoy. Quiet neighborhood very peaceful to sit outside in the morning. Definitely one of our favorite vacation homes.

Warm home & decorated for the holidays!

We came into town to celebrate our grandsons birthdays and Christmas. We hosted our family for Christmas Eve dinner. Our hosts were very accommodating providing a table and table cloth. We couldn’t have had a more enjoyable time. We would highly recommend this home.

Perfect vacation place

My husband and I enjoyed our stay here along with our dog. The property was clean and provided all the amenities a person would need. The beach equipment (towels, chairs, cart and umbrella) was a plus and made our days at the beach enjoyable. We would definitely stay here again!

Perfect Getaway

My husband and I were blown away with the details of this rental, including all the essentials being provided, to the quality of appliances, cookware, and beautiful decor. The only suggestion would be adding a king bed as we are used to sleeping in one at home. We will definitely be staying again!!

Lovely and quaint home

This was a wonderful place to stay for a quick trip away to the beach as a young married couple! It was beautiful and well stocked with everything you could need. We were very comfortable during our stay and beach supplies were provided. It was close to the beach, but far enough away to be quiet. Highly recommend if you are looking for a place to stay!

Lovely home, no steps at all, quiet neighborhood

This home is lovely. Nice high-ceilings and nautical theme. Everything worked as it should and no problems whatsoever. Comfy bed. Lots of linens and things in case you need extra. Well-stocked kitchen and bath. The house and yard are very private. Would be a great place just to stay and relax and "get away." Neighborhood is quiet, friendly. We brought our dog and many people had dogs as well. Loved the one-story and no steps for us.

Great Place to Stay with Dogs!

We really enjoyed staying here! It was just a couple blocks from a really nice park that has walking trails and a dog park. I really like that the living room is large enough to accommodate two dog crates easily. The owners provide a lot of little necessities, like toiletry items. The unit was super clean and nicely decorated. And the couch is quite possibly the most comfortable couch ever! Overall, I highly recommend this rental!

About the host

Hosted by John Davis 757.636.8000 or Rachel Davis 757.621.8565

Our family is in the real estate business and we travel extensively. We always look first for a vacation rental wherever we travel. We now offer the best of what we have discovered during our travels to you at our very own vacation rental.

Why they chose this property

This home is located just far enough away from the hustle and bustle of the oceanfront yet close enough to bike or walk. The neighborhood offers a park with tennis courts, a playground, picnic area and a scenic walkway along "Salt Marsh Point" situated as part of Rudee Inlet. Our property is fully furnished, the kitchen is very well stocked with everything you might need to prepare a gourmet meal or grill out on the front veranda. Located at the entrance to the neighborhood is a playground and park for the the family, tennis courts, a brand new dog park and scenic nature trail which takes you along side of Owls Creek. Our house and neighborhood are both super dog friendly.

What makes this property unique

Our home has a large fenced in front veranda/deck with a 6 burner propane grill and a premium patio table with offset umbrella. The back yard is also fenced in and has a park style bench with end tables and a patio umbrella. This offers you plenty of room to get together if you want or separate spaces if you need a little alone time.
