We really enjoyed our stay at this Virginia Beach house. The location was awesome — just about a 3-minute walk to the beach, which made it super easy, especially with our dog.The house was very clean, comfortable, and well taken care of. There were four adults staying, and we had more than enough space. Everything we needed was there, and it felt like a place you could actually relax in, not just sleep.It was great to find such a dog-friendly place, and the area was quiet and nice for walks. Overall, it was an easy, comfortable stay, and we’d definitely stay here again. Highly recommend!
The check-in was seamless. The property was clean, and the pictures were accurate. It had everything we needed for a long weekend of golf, dominoes, and watching football. It's directly on Atlantic Avenue but road noise was not overwhelming, and beach access was worth it. Easy drive or Uber to restaurants etc. I would definitely stay again.
Fantastic Northern End VA Beach accommodations!!Everything I wanted for a few nights at the beach! Located a very short walk to the beach was my favorite part!! Also close to a state park and really good restaurants (especially the seafood!) Also the place was clean, stocked with necessities, had a fenced in yard for our dogs. Good communication with the host, they were very helpful with all our requests. Would stay here again!! Thanks so much!!

Very nice location and home. Had a small dining area. We enjoyed our visit
Great location, just steps from the beach. The house is well equipped with anything you might need and having a washer and dryer wads a huge bonus. Plenty of beach chairs and toys were included too. We would 100% rent again.
The apartment was perfect for my husband, my mother, our 2 small terriers, and me. Kitchen was well equipped. Beds had memory foam toppers and were very comfortable. Wonderful neighborhood with short walk to beautiful beach!
This property was super cute and created a relaxing and comfortable environment. The hosts were very accommodating, helpful, and easy to work with. Access to the beach is right down the street! We all want to come back to the same place next year.
House was everything we needed for a few days away. Beds were super comfortable! Great, quiet location just a short walk to the beach. Would definitely come back.
We enjoyed this house, especially the fenced in front and back yards for the dog. Beds were comfy, the kitchen had everything we needed to prepare meals, and it’s so close to the beach. We look forward to staying here again.
Stayed during the off season to visit family. The house is comfortable, the fenced in backyard was great for dogs, and the proximity to the beach and everything in town made for a great stay. Would highly recommend!
We came to Virginia Beach for a family wedding, I booked this property for a long weekend. The house is beautiful, fully stocked with everything we needed and more. We were only steps from the beach in a quiet neighborhood
We stayed 3 nights for a getaway. The property is in a great location on the north end of Virginia Beach and super close to First Landing state park . We enjoyed it immensely.
This place was just lovely! Cute little place a short 2 minute/`1 block walk to the beach with no need to cross any traffic Place had everything we needed - could easily sleep six people. Place was clean, convenient and walkable (easily) to the beach or the hiking trails within Point State Park. I will DEFINITELY be coming again next year!
My family stayed here last week. The property was clean and comfortable. I appreciated the raised doggie bowls! Quick walk to a semi private beach. Absolutely lovely!
The interior is cheerful and well organized. The location is amazing — on the beachside, an easy walk to a beautiful, uncrowded, wide beach; across the street, a pristine forest with cedar-lined walks. Ideal for dogs.

Great place to stay. Close to the Boardwalk and only steps to the ocean. Wide, clean beach perfect for young families or dogs. Bonus: Dolphins swimming in the surf! House was very clean. Had everything we could need. Will definitely stay here again.
Great getaway for family. Private back yard and fence front yard are great for relaxing with entire family and wearing out the dog before heading to dinner. Perfectly located within easy walk to beach and state park for great hiking. House was clean, and had everything we needed.
