Excellent property in strategic location to Norfolk and Yorktown
We had an awesome stay at this very comfortable home on the bay. Gathering in the spacious family room overlooking the bay was a favorite. Having the convenience of both a nicely stocked kitchen and multiple spacious bedrooms was exactly what our family needed. The hosts provided tons of conveniences with kayaks, bikes, grills, and indoor or outdoors games. Check in was very easy with no hiccups.
The perfect waterfront vacation home for families!!
If you're looking for a vacation home on the water and in the Willoughby Bay area this is the perfect home!! The home is exactly as advertised. Everyone had their own space and the house was clean and met all of our expectations. The house came with everything you would need. The host is extremely prompt with all communication. Highly recommend this property.
We enjoyed our stay and the house. Our only complaint, if you could even call it that, was the neighborhood. It was much more residential than we realized. There wasn't really anywhere to go within walking distance, everything had to be driven to. Other than that, we had a nice stay.
We just loved our stay. Everything went great. The house was beautiful. More than what we could ask for. The owners were very helpful and kind. A pleasure to communicate with. The kids enjoyed fishing and air hockey. The air hockey was perfect for those rainy days. Kept us all busy. WONDERFUL!!!

The house was great! Enough space for all of us to feel comfortable.
Only 2 issues i can think of. The traffic on the bridge was a little annoying. But of course that does not reflex on the house.
The upstairs bath room shower/tubs did not have any safety handles nor slip resistance tiles. My father who is 83 felt unsure using them. Other than that one item we loved the house!!

Disliked: Location, listing accuracy
Plenty of Space
The house is comfortable and well maintained. Clean. Kitchen very well stocked with gadgets and what one needs to feed a crowd. Beds were okay. There were lots of amusements to benefit from in the place itself as described. Good TVs. You will not be bored there.
For me the pretty picture of the water and the dock was misleading. Just beyond the dock is the highway. The water is more of a working harbor less of a quiet lake or inlet. Norfolk isn’t Virginia Beach. AC is floored at 70, which is too warm for us to sleep well.
One other reviewer noted the highway- others didn’t. Another noted the neighborhood being “shady” - it kind of is.
We had a nice time there- let me be clear. The yard was family friendly and nice. While there is a beach nearby we personally wouldn’t opt for it. VA Beach is about 45-min away and that’s where we went.
How happy you are there will depend on why you want to be there, what your budget is, etc.
Overall we had a nice time
We had a excellent experience, staying at this home in Willoughby spirit. Let me start by saying the neighborhood coming in. Looks a little shady, but it’s very quiet and the home was remarkable. Very clean inside and out and the home had everything that it promised. Very clean bedrooms, and the kitchen was fully stocked. Outdoors had a great view of the bay and a very nice long pier. The fire pit was also, very nice on the cool night. Communication with the owner was great and they were very friendly and helpful. Would definitely recommend this home to anyone. If we are back in this area again, we will definitely look to stay.
We had a very good stay; Hosts were gracious and most welcoming. We had one issue arise and Steve was right on it, resolving it immediately. Everything was perfect with only one unusual requirement. We stayed only three nights but were required to provide our own paper products and laundry detergent. Otherwise it was all great.
We booked this house from August 11 for 5 nights;
We very enjoyed stay there; house has everything what you need for comfort!!! Will book this house again for next year vacation!!!
Thank you!!!
We loved the property. Had an amazing time fishing and the kids loved there was so many rooms and a air hockey table when weather wasn’t good enough to go do something. Was very easy communicating with the owners. Would love to stay there again when come back down there . House was beautiful and easy to locate. Had absolutely no issues the whole time we was there and no complaints.
This is our second time renting this same property because we had a great experience the first time. The property owners are very accommodating and always try to make things convenient and easy! Our family would highly recommend this property to those looking to vacation in Norfolk!
Communication with owners was excellent. Accommodations were clean and well kept, more than enough for our party of 6 adults.
Would definitely rent again if in the area.
we had a wonderful stay. very convenient to I-64, and plenty of good restaurants close by. this is a great place to kick back and relax. we even caught some crabs in the crab pot they had on the pier. now i need to find me a friend with a boat, lol, as that would make for an even more epic time. plenty of stuff to watch as you kick back and relax on the pier or little beach area. (navy seals train in that bay, plus the new bridge being built or just the traffic on i-64.) good times with my family.
We had a great time at your place. We are avid fisherman in my family and we enjoyed your pier!
It was our hangout and fishing zone and we were able to catch a nice redfish on it. Thank you Bonnie for allowing us to stay in your wonderful home and getting some quality fishing time!
Our family of 4 (myself, husband, 2 adult children) had a great stay at this nice house on the Willoughby Spit, nestled between the Willoughby Bay and the Chesapeake Bay. We visited from April 8th-13th. Our son is stationed at Norfolk Naval Station and this location was perfect for him to visit with us after his work day. The house was clean and provided ample space for us inside and outside. The towels and linens were nice to have included. We were able to cook several nice meals with the well-stocked kitchen and the outdoor grill. The Chesapeake Bay beach (Ocean View) is just across the street with easy access across the dunes. There is also very east access to 64 to go either north or south. We went to numerous places in Norfolk, all within a 20-minute drive (during non-rush hour times). I gave the location 4 stars mostly due to the very close proximity of the 64 bridge across the Willoughby Bay in the backyard. It was not a problem for us, but it could create a fair amount of traffic noise. The owners were great to work with, very responsive to texts and emails. Overall a wonderful visit with our son!
6 of us stayed here while visiting my son who is stationed in Norfolk. The house is huge! We had plenty of space and everyone had their own room. The location was fantastic - easy access to Colonial Williamsburg, VA beach, etc. There is a 7-11 a half block away for any last minute needs and we walked there day and night - the community is safe and quiet. We enjoyed sitting out on the pier on the water although I will add that the traffic is very loud which made it difficult to hear each other in the backyard. The backyard and upper deck are really great spaces as well. We did use the grill but did not have time to use the kayaks or bikes, but it’s great that they have them there for you. We cooked all our meals here and everything was in working order although there aren’t enough bowls of any size - for eating or mixing or serving. Plenty of cookware, plates, silverware and glasses. As long as you don’t mind the traffic noise in the backyard, this is a fantastic place. I would definitely stay here again.
Very large home and plenty of room for Family and Friends! Very clean and fun location!
3 full baths and 4 very large Bedrooms with 2 downstairs and the two upstairs as ensuites.
One of the few houses that have 3 King Size beds, 2 Queen Beds and one twin bed! Great place for families and a Girl's Trip ❤!
The home has many things to do inside and out! The deck is awesome!! Highly recommend!
