Clean house, easy check in and out, convenient location, good host communication. Loved the lower and upper decks for outdoor dining and views of the beach.
This gem of a home sits in a busy area yet leaves you feeling like you are on your own retreat. Owners have furnished the home to have everything you might need, the home is quiet with beautiful views. We found the property spotless inside and out. This property felt so homey it was hard to leave.
We were traveling for a much needed girls' trip. The house was very nicely decorated and cozy. The air condition din't help too much with the upstairs bedrooms - our only complaint. The house is located right on the bay, and walking distance to a pier with a fun restaurant/bar and live music. We had a great stay. We woke up every morning to watch the sunset.
Great home, great beach access, everything you need to enjoy the week
The property is in a nice location in a residential area, you are close to many places to explore, eat, or entertain. Walking distance to the local pier restaurant and fishing access.
Great location right on the beach - private path to the beach. The outdoor space is amazing - there is a table with a grill right outside the kitchen, a deck with a table, hammock, and seats in the back of the house, and an upstairs deck with a beautiful view of the bay and beach. Very quiet area overlooking a fishing pier with a restaurant. The house is very spacious, with great bedrooms, well stocked kitchen, and a huge dining room, and living room. The hosts were very responsive, helpful, and accommodating.
My family had a lovely time together in this house! We loved the easy access to the beach. The kitchen is well stocked, and all the beds very comfortable!
My family had a wonderful stay at Jeanie's waterfront home. The house was really lovely, very comfortable and spacious, and was well stocked for all of our needs. The beach was perfect and we loved how close it was to the fishing pier which we ended up walking to along the beach daily! I would definitely stay here again!
Best vacation we’ve ever had. It was the first time seeing the ocean for my kids and myself, and it was absolutely beautiful. Thank you for allowing us to stay in this lovely, perfect, home.

This place was great and an amazing location! The hosts were amazing and so great at communicating. We didn't need to bring half the stuff we did because they literally had everything you need for the beach. Absolutely fantastic experience. Thank you so much for everything :)
Stay was great. House had everything you could need plus homey charm. View is great and so relaxing even from inside house. This is on the list to come back to.
We truly enjoyed our stay! The house was beautiful and bigger than I expected! The beach was also closer than I thought. We had plenty of room with four adults and four kids. We plan on coming back.
This is without a doubt one of the most beautiful pieces of property in Oceanview with spectacular views and the interior of the house is superb. It is very well maintained and has all the amenities anyone could ask for and more.I would not only love to stay there again but only wished it was mine. Just a lovely house. Our whole family came here for the ODU graduation we had family from Georgia and New Mexico and here in Virginia as well we all absolutely enjoyed our stay here and this lovely house.
