Cozy Historic Beach House only Steps Away from Beach and Fishing Pier!

This well-equipped, historic 2 bed/1 bath house has semi-private beach access on the beautiful Chesapeake Bay and is located next to the Ocean View Fishing Pier and rooftop bar and grill!
It is about 1000 square feet in size, and has 1 queen size bed, 2 twin size beds, and a queen sofa bed in the living room. Fast WiFi, 50” smart TV in the living room and 40" smart TV in the main bedroom. Window AC units for air conditioning and each room is heated with thermostat controlled infrared units. It is within close driving proximity to Virginia Beach Oceanfront, Chic's Beach, Downtown Norfolk, Old Dominion University, and Christopher Newport University.
The house sits only about 100 feet away from the beach, with a short path from your backyard past my other rental house to access the beach. There are no steep dunes or stairways to navigate, no streets to cross, and the access is not shared with the public.
Housebroken and well-behaved pets are allowed with payment of the pet fee. This property will be deep cleaned and sanitized between every reservation. This is a recently acquired property and will be continually improved with summer profits.

Property very clean, steps away from Oceanview fishing pier.

Property is clean and neat. However, a tad rundown. Very close to the beach as described and next to the Oceanview fishing pier. Communication with property owner excellent. Overall a good experience.

Wonderful getaway

This was a wonderful little getaway for us. Even with the unusually high winds, we had a great time in this cute house which had everything we needed (perhaps bring paper towels?). We had great direct beach access and wish the pier bar & grill had been open for the season! We will be back. Great location to nearby restaurants, and no wifi concerns. Parking was easy!

Exactly what it says it is

Older house, decorated appropriately and kept clean. Everything you need for a stay at the beach. Great location. Parking lot at the pier, which is next door, stays busy all night during the weekend. Lots of motorcycles on the road all night that you will hear. But those things arent the fault of the property. All in all, this house is great for what it's for....a clean place right on the beach.

Getaway

I rented this house for myself and my cousin. Location for fishing was great. Right next to the pier. Short walk. I wouldn’t recommend the pier restaurant. Food was ok but the service was terrible. The pier was great.

Beautiful beach!

House was old (as described) and a bit shabby but very clean. Even a few minimal upgrades would improve it immensely. However the price was right and the location for that price was great! The fishing pier with the restaurant/bar at the end was a bonus. Beautiful beach to walk. The weather did not cooperate with us - we were a week too early but you can’t change the weather!

It's was ok

We reserved the Little House on the water that was right on the water. When we showed upit was a totally different house and couldn't even see the water. It was not at all what was advertised. I would have never reserved it if I knew that. The only reason I reserved is because I wanted to be right on the water. It really feels like false advertising. The photos in the add are of a completely different house. Won't be renting this place again. I really feel ripped off. I reserved the lil blue house on the water but I was right on the side of the road next to the parking lot. It was supposed to be a romantic weekend getaway on the water with my woman but that's not what I got at all. I will never rent this property again and I really feel ripped off and that someone should owe me money but I guess I just got ripped off

This property is definitely aged. The owner was very helpful and replied to my text very quickly. Needs several updates. Pictures could be misleading, but it was a place to ley our heads at the end of the day.

Short walk to the beach

It was a cute little house, kinda old and needs some update. The neighborhood isn't that nice but there is a fence so its safe. What we love is that it is a very short walk to the beach and it's private. We only stayed a night and it was raining so we didn't have much time at the beach. Would love to stay there again, but would prefer the other property that is the house with the bay view.

Amazing Stay

The house was actually bigger than we anticipated. It was described well. The reviews were accurate and based on opinion. Our opinion was that everything was perfect. Our 2 dogs joined us and also loved it! The area seemed a little sketchy but there was a great tall fence blocking the parking lot so we had our own little area! All beds were made, towels provided, dishes, cooking needs, grill, fire pit, laundry- it was perfect for us coming from NY! The beach was easy access, a nice neighbor, and we just wished we could’ve stayed longer!

Girls weekend

The grass had not been cut for a long time. The fire pit was not maintained and had excessive amount of cigarette butts in it. The chairs by the fire pit were moldy and dirty. Handrail in shower was missing. Bedroom air conditioner was making very loud noises. Very limited dishes and glasses in the kitchen.

The place was ok

So the place needs some updates. Beyond that everything was ok we woke up to 6 people fist fighting in our backyard at 2am.The house backs up to a parking lot for beach/fishing pier so it seems like a lot of undesirables hang out. It’s directly on beach so that was a nice touch and almost makes up for other experience. If owner put in a couple grand to update house he could charge much more per night.

Small issues, GREAT LOCATION

Cute bungalow right next door to the fishing pier. Very clean upon entry and no problem accessing the key. We had 5 people but only 4 towels, 4 wash cloths and 1 hand towel. Microwave didn't work and there were no sheets or pillows for the sofabed which was less than clean, probably should replace it due to its age. The outdoor furniture should be replaced, tho I'm sure no one uses it. Overall tbis was a nice place, just old, but nice. The A/C worked great

Willoughby Spit Property

We decided on this property because it was close to the bay. We did not have to get the kids into car to take to beach. Some questionable people on the pier but did not have a problem. It was the 4th of July so you would have people drinking anywhere. 99% of people were very friendly. It is like a fishing cottage, exactly what I expected. It is an older property. Very clean. I had a small problem and George had it fixed in two hours. I would not hesitate to rent it again. The pier restaurant was a big plus. The grandchildren loved walking the pier early morning. Thanks George. We enjoyed our stay.
