Adorable, spotless place in a great location
We felt right at home the moment we walked in the front door. The home is spotless and beautifully decorated, and has everything you can think of for an enjoyable stay. The kitchen was well stocked, complete with coffee/tea bar and fixings. The basket of nutritious snacks was a nice touch, which we enjoyed. The bed was very comfortable, with high quality linens and towels, and high end toiletries provided in the bathroom. Our pup loved it there too. We particularly enjoyed the enclosed front patio, where we caught some rays and watched the jets fly over, and our boy nibbled on his many toys. One morning we took a walk through Salt Marsh Park, and made our way down to the Rudee Inlet restaurants for delicious fresh seafood, just about a 30 minute walk. We would definitely book this lovely home again, and we are passing the info along to our pet parent friends. Thanks again, John & Rachel!

Wonderful getaway
We loved this comfortably furnished, relaxing home so much. We were in town due to a family illness and coming back to this impeccably clean, well stocked home was a true gift. The “little touches” make such a difference in the comfort of a vacation experience. A platter of yummy snacks, cold water bottles in the fridge, Keurig pods, sugar, 1/2 and 1/2. A perfect rental property close to everything.

The home was as described in the listing. Very well equipped. You only need to bring your clothes. Only a 5 min drive to beach. We had our dog with us and walked on the beach boardwalk. It was beautiful. The home is close to restaurants. I would definitely recommend for your vacation.

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!

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 now-fiancé and I stayed here for a weekend getaway, and it was perfect! We were less than 10 minutes away from the beach and pretty much anywhere we wanted to go, the property was much more spacious than we realized, and the house was so clean! We really loved being able to use the beach chairs/cooler/umbrella, that made our stay so much more convenient. It was so lovely to cook together and eat outside in the fenced-in front yard, and the house was so cozy and comfortable. We will DEFINITELY be staying here again if we come back to VA Beach!

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!!

Wonderful rental!
We traveled with our dogs and loved the fenced-in back and front yards! This property was extremely clean and well-stocked!! We lived in the Norfolk/Va. Beach area for over 40 years and knew about the jet noise. I would suggest that you may want to make renters aware of this because it can be rather loud. Other than that, we enjoyed out stay and would rent again!!

Would like to stay at another location with this owner. He and wife care about what you need for comfort and relaxation. We loved the crab shack. Sharon, George, and Klyde(shitu/yorkie).

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!

Perfection!
This property is a perfect example of what a vacation rental should be. The hosts have thought of everything, and delivered beautifully. It was super clean, had high quality towels and bed linens, a well-stocked kitchen, quality paper products, comfortable bed, well-functioning appliances and a lovely beach-themed decor with unique wall hangings. The beach is less than 2 miles away, parking offstreet right outside the gate, nice fenced-in backyard, and a pet-friendly neighborhood I felt safe in. Communicating with the hosts was quick and easy. I stayed 7 nights, and would absolutely stay again. Thanks to John & Rachel for putting in so much effort to make this a wonderful vacation rental for your guests!

Amazing Home to stay
We have rental several homes over the years, but nothing compares to this one. Yes, it was clean and yes it was tastefully decorated, but it was the little things provided by the hosts that made the difference. We literally just had to take our clothes and make a quick stop to the grocery store and we were home. From the linens/towels and toiletries provided to the snacks and coffee/tea bar. Every time we thought we forgot something, we opened a cabinet and there it was. The thoughtfulness put into this rental was beyond anything we had ever experienced. Had our Golden with us and between the fenced in front/back yard and the dog park/trails down the street it was perfect. To top it off Va Beach is extremely dog friendly...so put it all together and you have a perfect getaway. Our hosts set the bar high for future trips, but this is one home we will definitely be returning to. Thank you and have a lovely summer!

Great little property, we especially loved the park at the entrance of the neighborhood which we took our dogs to daily! It's walking distance too which was great! Our only complaint was the bed. It was too soft for us but we are also used to a firm bed. The patio in the front was also great for enjoying the weather with an umbrella for when it was too sunny. Thanks for a great stay!

Hands down the best VRBO experience ever
These good folks take hosting seriously. The house was exactly as depicted and was immaculate, thoughtfully stocked, intuitively organized. Great location with a fabulous dog park a short stroll away, not far from the beach, quiet and pleasant neighborhood. Check-in process was seamless, and communication with them was first rate. I would absolutely stay with them again, and I wish all hosts were as passionate about their properties and their guests' experiences as these two are. Hats way off, and thank you!
