House was super clean and well stocked. Chris was super responsive and also let us check in early. The area was very calm and quiet, and was close walk to the beach, restaurants, and shopping. Definitely would stay here again
We were staying for work. This place is nice! We all had our own bathrooms with showers. We have to return a few more times for work, and hopefully this house will be available!
Our stay was great, the home is very comfortable, and has everything we needed. The master shower with rainhead was a nice surprise. Great little deck/backyard with table for eating al fresco, and I’ve never stayed in a rented home with a Ninja blender and kitchen-aid stand mixer in the well stocked kitchen!
House was clean and close to the beach, kitchen's clean but not enough utensils to use during our stay. Master bedroom toilet was not flushing properly, the handle was loose, so we had to monitor the water tank manually which is inconvenience. During our stay, the host contacted us a few times including asking to put the trash can out for pick up, washer/ dryer repair man come to check the dryer, picking up amazon package from the front door, so I just felt a bit disturbance. Overall, it's nice house and convenience location for family beach vacation.
Beautiful house with amazing accommodations and comfort. Everything is well taken care of and works properly. Easy communication with property renter. Beach and weather was amazing and an easy walk.
10/10 would recommend!
House was exactly as advertised and very close to several beach accesses. Property owner is very helpful and great with answering any questions in a timely manner.
Nice spot! Its away from the Va beach crowds and enjoyed eating at the great local restaurants close by. My Family enjoyed it.

Reached out to guest to determine if there was something we could have provided or done better to improve stay. We are always looking to improve the rental experience. Guest did not respond.
This property was great! There was plenty of room, easy access to the beach and great place for the kids with the fenced in back yard. I would definitely book again!!
Chris’s house was perfect for a weeklong friend’s getaway to the beach. The house was beautiful and fit five of us perfectly. Chris was very responsive to any issues or questions we had. The location really couldn’t be beat and the house was well equipped for grilling, cooking and relaxing!
