About this house rental

Escape to this serene, vintage cottage set on a peaceful, private Norfolk creek. With 1,500 sq. ft. of light-filled space, this cozy retreat offers two bedrooms and a charming sleeping porch. Enjoy sweeping nature views, watching local wildlife, and unforgettable sunsets, all in a tranquil wooded setting. 1 mi. to Ocean View Golf, Bay Beach and Pavillion, Park, Fishing Pier, and Navy Base and just 20 minutes from Fest-Events and Downtown Norfolk, the Virginia Beach Oceanfront Boardwalk, and Coastal attractions. A restful escape in nature, close to it all.

Welcome to our enchanting vintage cottage on a serene Norfolk creek, a peaceful retreat where natural beauty abounds and every corner invites relaxation. Imagine sipping your morning coffee as the sun rises over the marsh, listening to the soft calls of local birds, or unwinding with a glass of wine as the sky transforms with a brilliant sunset. Nestled on an acre of lush, informal landscaping, the cottage offers an intimate front-row seat to watch the bald eagles, egrets and herons, glimpse fish leaping in the creek, and enjoy the springtime burst of vibrant azaleas.
The cottage’s spacious, open-concept design and walls of windows create a light-filled sanctuary with beautiful water and wildlife views from every room. Ideal for families, friends, or romantic escapes, this single-family home features a fully stocked quaint kitchen, two cozy bedrooms plus a charming enclosed porch converted into a unique sleeping area with a rustic metal shower and private bath. This thoughtfully designed area, complete with extra A/C units and a space heater for cooler months, ensures comfort all year round, while central HVAC keeps the main home perfectly temperate.
Outside, the natural beauty of the creek awaits, with protected wetlands filled with tall grasses and seasonal blooms that add even more charm. Here, nature is the entertainment: relax and watch the birds glide over the water, spot fish darting along the creek, or just enjoy the calmness of the surrounding trees and water. While the creek and marsh area itself is preserved to protect the local ecosystem, which means no water activities, you’re only a mile away from the Ocean View Fishing Pier and Bay Beaches, where you can dive into all your favorite water activities—swimming, fishing, boating, or kayaking to your heart’s content.
Enjoy full privacy in this secluded retreat, set at the end of a quiet dead-end street with a private drive. This cottage retains much of its vintage character, adding a warm and welcoming charm to your stay. While we continue to make updates to enhance your experience, we embrace the home’s history and the unique quirks that give it such personality.
We genuinely hope you fall in love with the beauty of our Norfolk creek cottage and all that Coastal Virginia has to offer. This is a place to unwind, rejuvenate, and create cherished memories. We’re here to make your stay unforgettable! (For same-day bookings, we may need a 2-hour notice to prepare for check-in—please contact us as soon as you’ve booked).

My husband and I love to experience difference locations every summer. This trip was very hot 90's but felt like 100+. Our stay at this property was perfect - out of the way, close to everything we wanted to see. The property description was exactly what we experienced. We experienced a delay in our vacation due to weather and our host was empathic and supportive. When we come back to the area this will be the first property we look to stay at. Highly recommended.

The view of the Creek from the cottage is flanked by blooming azaleas in April and we were very comfortable despite the windy day or two. The jumping fish and water birds we a delight! We had all the utensils and kitchen gear we needed. All the appliances were great. The bed slept well and the bath was tidy. The living room flowed with sunshine and comfortable chairs. We could have sat there or at the table for hours watching the creek. We were conveniently close to our destinations and any stores we needed. We're looking forward to going back!

We stayed here very comfortably for almost 2 weeks. The setting and location of this property can't be beat, especially if you are visiting a sailor. It is tranquil and peaceful---and the birdwatching was exceptional. Thank you for making this such a special stay.

The host Leslie went out of her way to make our Christmas with our Sailor special. We are so grateful she shared this gem with us. We felt very safe in this bit of paradise. Perfect for families. I cooked large meals and the kitchen was stocked well. The location makes it very easy to get around Norfolk and Virinia Beach. I'd like to keep it a secret for myself :) But i highly recommend it , I already have on The Navy Family sites.

The property was as pictured/described. Large house for our family of 4. The sun room had 2 areas that was perfect for our teenaged sons and their video game playing. We played board games (some we brought and some were on-site) in the dining area, which had a perfect view. We utilized the backyard nightly, which had a fire pit, so make sure to bring firewood. TVs were equipped with a number of apps to watch movies. It was a great house, in a great location. Perfect communication with property manager and the digital code made check in/out very easy. We look forward to returning.

What a lovely cottage!

What a lovely cottage!

Our family of three loved our time at the cottage. It was a great opportunity for us to decompress and enjoy nature as the setting is so serene. With the two main bedrooms plus the sofa and daybed in the sunroom, we had room to spare. We would have been comfortable with another couple or more kids in house. I can’t say enough about the view and the hours I spent outside watching the cranes and taking pics of all the trees and plants in the back yard. The serenity was much needed. The owner was very responsive to our few questions and was kind enough to text a list of recommended local spots.
