Nice home.

Very well appointed, we had everything we needed. Very comfortable beds. The only issue we had was the downstairs was very cold and there was not a separate thermostat. I would stay here again.

Great beach house

The house was very clean and the beds were so comfortable. We enjoyed the salt water pool a lot and the outside grill. Easy access to the beach, about a 5 minute walk. Communication was excellent with management and would highly recommend this rental!

Sand Dollar is Great

What a great cottage with all the trimmings. Kitchen is extremely well equipped with sharp knives and even cast iron frying pans! Beds are huge and very comfy with lots of pillows. And a GREAT location - easy 5 min. stroll to the wide beach. The area is also in a perfect less-busy location and in walking distance of the BEST restaurant on the island - Sam & Omies!

Great Location! The Beach is across the street, Pea Island just down the road, Alligator River National Wildlife Refuge, a 20min drive away. Lots of Parks and Wilderness areas to explore close by. Jeanettes Pier is in walking distance if you want to go fishing. Beds were comfortable, house was clean, kitchen supplied with everything you could need to cook with and it even has a play area for your dogs

Problems solved

We had a few bumps along the way with some issues at the house after arriving, but Ronnie and her office were very responsive and quick to get the issues resolved. The house was perfect for our needs and close to the wedding venue and our daughter (the bride) and her friends. We didn't have an opportunity to go to the ocean, but there was easy, close access.

Visit

Decently stocked but not very clean. Feet were black within 10 minutes of walking in house. Definitely needs TLC. Doors and walls marked up. Patches made in walls but not sanded down and painted. Very worn stairs and sticking doors. All the outdoor furniture was torn and worn. Nice location, got an early check in. As someone has stayed in the outer banks since a child this house was overpriced.

Great Stay

This place was quaint and as described. Easy check-in. Bedrooms were spacious with comfy beds. Beach access is directly across the street and soooo convenient. 2 fridges and a fully stocked kitchen. Bring your own coffee filters if you drink coffee, as they were not provided. Also bring some tp, paper towels, dishwasher tablets, etc., as they only give you the minimum. This is a great option for those who want to bring their dogs. However, you won't be allowed to let them in the pool, as their filtration system can't clear the dog fur. No worries. The pups will love wading in the ocean just as much. Overall, this was an affordable and nice place, and the rental folks were very approachable. I would recomment.

Squeaky floorboards and Self-clean...

The location of the property was in a quiet part of town so that was a plus for us, considering that we were there to sight see. The property is also located close to the major attractions. On a negative note, if one person is in the kitchen/dining room/lounge area upstairs, and people are trying to sleep downstairs, the floorboards squeak with every step which is most annoying. The private access point to the beach is not clearly marked so that means we had to use the public access which was an inconvenience considering we had to cart a lot of items. Next time, I would book into a hotel because according to the checkout reminders, we had to sweep and wash dishes and clean-up, which is like being at home. We paid additional for cleanup and house cleaning, so why must I clean up myself.

Property was as described but Unethical!

Stay was cut short due to hurricane. Property was great and just as described. Only thing I am unhappy with is we booked this on Sunday, less than 24 hours from arrival. Once we arrived Monday, I received a call that there was mandatory evacuation going in to effect at noon the next day so we did not unpack, we left! Was charged full amount of stay. We were out full amount of rental including amenites I added such as linen and pet fee. After I sent an email complaining, I was refunded 66% refund on linen fee and pet. Said there was a bowl in the sink so that is why 66% I used a bowl to feed my dog and put it in the sink before leaving. We were literally there for less than 15 minutes and was charged! Yes I knew about the hurricane but the person I spoke to while booking this told me we would be fine as long as we left by Thursday NO NENTION of mandatory evacuation. (Which I learned later is a very common thing for them to mandate evacuation early in that area) I even expressed to her we changed our plans fromTybee Island due to the hurricane. It is a great property but due to feeling treated unfairly I will not book this again!! I understand business is business but I also understand doing the right thing and I feel like all this owner cared about was the money that was already collected!

Dr. Forbes was the first woman to be selected to the board, and the first female president, of the Boys and Girls Club of the Peninsula, where she was honored as a member of the “Wall of Fame” – the first and only woman to be so honored in the club’s 65-year history.

Sarah was often honored for her contributions to the organizations she served, and the community she loved.
Among her many awards were the Virginia Center for Inclusive Communities’ Humanitarian Award in 2007, and the Medallion Award which is the highest recognition presented by The Boys and Girls Club of America to volunteers.

She served as president of several community organizations that include the Virginia Peninsula Academy of Medicine, the Newport News Chapter of the American Cancer Society, the Newport News Medical Society, and the Peninsula Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Animals.

Her generosity benefited many organizations, including the Cancer Society, the Newport News Medical Society, the Peninsula Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Animals, Family Planning Council, First Baptist Church of Newport News, the Peninsula SPCA, Mariners’ Museum, Riverside Hospital, and Christopher Newport University.
