Such a great place. Convenient location-downtown Norfolk, Williamsburg, Yorktown, James Town, but best is the beach! We had trouble with air conditioning and the problem was solved immediately. Very responsive. We had three beautiful bedrooms and 2 big baths. We enjoyed the porch and grilling. The washer and dryer were a huge plus. I would totally recommend this house!
This adorable home is very roomy and decorated with beach decor. It is located on a very busy road but we were able to walk across it and get onto the beach through a couple of different pathways. We discovered a fun and tasty restaurant called The Willoughby Fish House and we walked to the Ocean View Pier. It was a busier location than we were expecting but we had no trouble with feeling safe or getting a good night’s sleep.
