Different home
We were at a different location than we originally booked. I am not sure how to rate the place shown since we weren't there. The alternative home we did stay in was very nice, on the beach and easy to get to everywhere.

Cute house for a quick getaway
The host was very responsive and accommodating. The house is much larger than it looks from the street. If you drive a larger car, the parking can be a bit of an issue. We parked our SUV on the street. My only complaint would be with the towels. They were microfiber and definitely left you feeling wet... if this would be an issue for you, I would recommend bringing your own. Otherwise, this property is close to the beach, close to a grocery store, and several restaurants -- and it is listed for a fair price.

Fall break
The property is within easy walking distance to a walkable beach. It was quiet. The mattresses were comfortable. It was in need of a good "spring cleaning". Lacked good towels and had some animal odor in one area. The gas was empty so we couldn't enjoy the outdoor fire area. I did not report this to the owner as there wasn't time to fix it for us to enjoy it. I did correspond with her about something else and she was responsive.

Overall disappointing
Broken blinds, dirty carpet going downstairs, broken toilet seat, empty propane tanks, ants on kitchen counter, smoke alarm missing in kitchen. Entire house needs thorough cleaning.

Adorable bungalow with a great host
The bungalow was nicely remodeled and updated, very clean, well-maintained and well-stocked. Katrina was a very responsive host. We had a great time playing pickleball in Norfolk, visiting Virginia Beach and attending a beautiful wedding in Suffolk. There is a lot to do within close proximity including the Norfolk Botanical Garden and the Norfolk Zoo. Katrina also left great recommendations for restaurants!
