Sojourn | Coastal Cottage | 3 BR

Summary:
Enjoy the beauty of Little Bay and Willoughby Spit from this stylish home, just steps from public beach access to the Chesapeake Bay. Stroll along the beach, feel the sand and salty air, and dive into the warm waters of the bay- safe and fun for children. Relax and take in the tranquility of this beautiful location!

The Space:
Your stay may be short, but you can still enjoy a wonderful beach vacation at The Coastal Cottage. This home is custom designed to provide comfort and relaxation for families. The living and dining areas are brightly decorated and curated to be the perfect spot for entertaining and spending time together. The kitchen is fully equipped with stone countertops, new designer stainless steel appliances, and everything you need for a comfortable stay. The Coastal Cottage has 3 bedrooms that can comfortably sleep 6 people. The Crate and Barrel dining table accommodates the entire family, while the custom designer living room is perfect for a movie night in. You'll find real down comforters, hand-picked feather and gel pillows, and luxury bath towels to indulge yourself. The sun-filled master bedroom has a queen bed, the second bedroom has a queen bed, and the third bedroom has a twin bunk bed. The full bathroom has a bathtub, making it easy for kids to take a bath. The backyard is perfect for family time, with a fire pit, gas grill, and patio swing & chairs for lounging.

Please be aware that landscaping is scheduled for Monday to Wednesday in Norfolk. If you have booked this property, you acknowledge that our landscaper will enter the backyard to cut the grass during this time. Additionally, trash is scheduled to be picked up 3 days a week, and our private trash provider will be on site bringing the cans out and back in.

You'll experience the beauty of Little Bay and Willoughby Spit from this thoughtfully designed and stylish home. Life in Willoughby revolves around the Chesapeake Bay, and this home is just steps away from public beach access to the bay. One of the greatest pleasures of living on the bay is taking a leisurely stroll along the beach, feeling the sand between your toes, and breathing in the salty air. The relaxing waters and gentle waves of the bay create an ideal playground for children and make swimming both pleasurable and safe. So, sit back, relax, and enjoy the tranquility of this beautiful location!

Cozy Norfolk House
Everything in the listing was exactly as shown. Check in and check out were simple and easy. Property manager was in contact and inquired of our needs. We didn't have any becuase the house was well stocked, but based on all other parts of the stay, I assume that would be handled efficiently. The highway is close, so there is quite a bit of road noise outside, but the sound is minimal once inside the house. We wpuld definitely stay here again.

Cottage near the bay
The house was exactly as described and pictured in the listing. It was clearly renovated recently and they did a good job updating the kitchen and bath while keeping the vintage details of the house. The kitchen is well stocked and we appreciated snacks and water left for us. When we had problems with the digital lock on the first day, they were very responsive. There are a couple of things people should know. The backyard is fenced, but there us a gap over a foot wide. Pavers are stacked to partially block it, but a child or dog could get through. The bay access is about 2 blocks, but it crosses a 4 lane road without a cross walk or traffic light.

Fenced yard, good neighborhood
The listing and reviews were not clear if the backyard was fully fenced, so I wanted to mention that here because that's important for dog families. The house was small, but perfect for my dog and I. Would be fine for a small family to stay for a beach visit. House was clean, but not so perfect that I felt like we were going to wreck it. The couch was not the most comfy, but was ok. Bed was pretty comfortable. Overall a good stay. Would stay again.

Good Weekend Stay
We stayed through the weekend here to visit the NAS Oceana Airshow. We had a small issue with the door code at the beginning of the stay, but it was easily resolved within about 15 minutes with a phone call. They made sure everything was good afterwards and gave us a direct number in case we had any further issues which we didn't. The overall stay was good and I would recommend this over the hotels that are close by in the area.

Really cute
Very cute cottage. Very comfy beds, nice linens. Great furnishings. Ok location. We had an infant with us who is crawling. We checked for baby hazards when we got there. We found lots of trash and a dish towel under the couch. The carpet in the living room was old, stained and had pet hair on it. The tub wasn’t the cleanest. Some cracked walls and dirty molding. Someone spackled some areas on the walls but did not paint. A new rug, some paint and a new cleaning crew would Definately help.

Great spot by the beach!
We enjoyed our stay at the coastal cottage! Everything was very clean and all of the essentials were provided (coffee, toiletries, beach chairs, etc.). We loved the convenience of the fenced in yard for our dogs, as well as the quick walk to the beach! The property managers were also friendly and very quick to respond.

Cute Cottage
What a cute little house. Location is nice and close to a little beach. Loved that there are beach chairs there for guest use! I wanted to take my chair along on our trip but we didn't have room, so this was such a great surprise! One thing that was annoying was the required fee for insurance...I was trying to find somewhere affordable for our family to stay. We needed a place for our family of 6 to stay while we visited our son before he deploys. It was a whirlwind trip - less than 48 hours total - and it felt like we paid through our teeth. The house was nice and clean. But it was frustrating to have to pay the extra fees. It seemed like the insurance would be the same whether you were staying 2 nights or 6 nights. I would stay there again if we need a vrbo. But hoping our son has a place we can stay next time so we can avoid all the extra fees.

Quick stay for a family holiday dinner
Stayed for the weekend before Christmas in order to go to family’s house without staying with them, able to do fun family things in the area. Perfect for a quick stay. Quiet area and nice backyard made it simple for us to have the dog. Rooms were clean, beds were comfortable, we would definitely stay here again.

Great location and clean, comfortable stay!
This adorable cottage was perfect for our family of four (including our 2 and 4 year old boys.) The location was perfect, with an easy walk to the bay (about 5 minutes.) The home was clean, updated, and we had everything we needed including plenty of towels, brand new beach chairs, and complimentary items such as plenty of k-cups, dish and laundry detergent, etc. The beds were all very comfortable and we loved that our boys could each have their own room. We would absolutely return here again and 10/10 recommend!
