Welcome to our charming cottage right across the street from the beach! This beautiful home offers 3 bedrooms and 1 full bath. Downstairs bedrooms include a queen and full bed. There is a very narrow spiral staircase leading to the second floor where there are 4 twin beds and a gaming area for your children to enjoy. We provide all linens and 8 beach towels and 8 bath towels.
We are pet friendly for a pet fee of $100. Please confirm when booking so that we can approve your pet. There is a park in walking distance for your children and pets as well as the beach directly across the street. Our front yard is fenced in but it does not have a gate on it. We do get beach burs in the grassy areas at some times during the year and do what we can to eliminate them but they are common around the beach.
You will feel right at home in our kitchen and bathroom with all appliances including dishwasher, coffee maker, pots/pans and dishware.
We have on-site parking for up to 5 vehicles, and a tranquil shaded back yard complete with a grill and picnic table all across the street from the beautiful Chesapeake Bay and beach.
Whether you enjoy crabbing, fishing, skim boarding, swimming in the Spring and Summer or walking through the historic district of downtown Norfolk in the Fall and coming back and cuddling up by the fire place, it's all here year round. What a wonderful place to just relax, shop or to find great adventure.
Here you will experience the most beautiful sunrises and sunsets with miles of safe beaches to stroll and play. You are certain to enjoy yourself in East Ocean View. Bring plenty of suntan lotion, and be sure to bring your boat, if you have one. Our local boat ramp and marina are just blocks away. Come and make memories that will last a lifetime! We look forward to seeing you
Whether you start your morning with your toes in the sand watching the sunrise with a cup of coffee or fishing off the beach, it is the perfect way to start the day.

- Washer & Dryer
- As a courtesy to our guests, we provide 1 Roll of paper towels, 1 roll of toilet paper, 1 trash bag, small bottle of dawn and 1 dishwasher tab. These will help you get started when you first arrive but you will need to bring additional supplies depending on the time you are renting including laundry detergent and toiletries.
- Fully equipped kitchen with stainless steel pots and pans, dish ware, glasses, and silverware to accommodate 8 guests
- Central heating and cooling system
- We currently have 4 inches of memory foam on the two beds downstairs. If you do not like the soft feel of memory foam and want a firm mattress, you can remove it off the top of the mattress and just return it to the top of the mattress before you leave. I only say this because some complain about the mattresses being too soft and others being too firm. This way you all can decide what works best for you. Three of the twin mattresses upstairs are new but firm. One upstairs is soft and none have memory foam upstairs.
-The hardwood flooring downstairs is original from the 50's. We had them sealed in 2022 but even after cleaning sand gets into the crevices. We do our best to clean the floor but it tends to still have sand from all the beach traffic on it even after cleaning. We mention this to be completely transparent so that if this would bother you then another beach home without original hardwood floors would be better for you. We don't want to anyone unhappy and want to make sure we identify and communicate everything both positive and negative about our cottage.
-If you want a completely bug free experience for your vacation then a beach house is probably not the place to vacation. We employ a pest control company that comes out a few times per quarter and sprays outside and inside of home. Unfortunately bugs still get into our cottage and no matter how many times we have it sprayed some still come in between the treatments. We hate all bugs but cannot guarantee a bug free stay living at the beach. We would rather you choose a location that will guarantee no pests than to come to our cottage and be unhappy because of finding any types of bugs as we can't treat any more frequently than we already do. Most of the time we don't have any but still on occasion they come back.
