Nice kitchen with everything a person should need! Cozy place in a quiet neighborhood very close to the beach. Will keep it on the list of places to stay!
Appreciative of the Brita water pitcher. It was a very nice and quiet.

Everything was wonderful! Everything was clean & neat. Extremely cozy & adorable! I loved it so much, I will definitely be staying again. Thank you for a wonderful stay!!
Cottage is a wonderful place for a couples getaway vacation. We thoroughly enjoyed the quiet neighborhood and short walk to a less populated part of the beach. We would stay again.
Absolutely loved our stay at Shiplap Cottage! The home was spotlessly clean, beautifully decorated, and had everything we needed for a comfortable getaway. Ritamarie was a fantastic host—her communication was thoughtful, clear, and incredibly helpful. The short walk to the beach was a perfect bonus. Highly recommend!
My husband and I loved the Adorable Beach Apartment. It had everything we needed. It was nicely decorated, comfortable, good AC and close/ quick walk to the beach. We biked into and through the state park and down to the boardwalk. Loved the outdoor shower. We would stay there again.
We had a wonderful stay. The apartment was cozy for two people and having a full kitchen made it so convenient. Location near the ocean for walks was just what we needed.
What a great location! Beautiful little cottage for two! Only a block from a beautiful, quiet beach! Also, an excellent host! Highly recommend for your stay in the North End of Virginia Beach!
Ritamarie provided a charming and comfortable property optimally located for beach access. Coordination and communication was clear. Thanks for a great stay!
My husband and I enjoyed 4 nights at Shiplap Cottage. Great location, quiet area, clean well maintained home. The owner was quick to respond to our questions. We’d stay here again.
We just needed another little place for a few days as our family beach house was crowded. This was perfect for what we needed… just a place to sleep and shower. The cottage looked as if it was recently renovated and everything was clean and neat. We enjoyed our stay and it worked perfectly for us. Thank you!
This property is well appointed and in a great location. Just a few minutes walk to the beach. It's easy to get around and close to area attractions while being far enough that the environment is quiet and relaxing.
This was a lovely little place that was exactly as advertised. Just a very short walk to the beach and a short drive to the downtown area. Cozy and welcoming with a friendly and accommodating property owner. I would definitely recommend staying here to any couple looking to experience Virginia Beach.
We had a wonderful time at this appartment. Very easy going host and very supporting when we had to come one night earlier than booked because of flight cancelations and renooking. We love the beach and the calm neighboorhood
This cottage apartment is ideally located at the far north end of the beach away from the crowd. It is the perfect size for me, as well. Walks to the beach and around the neighborhood were very pleasant. I thoroughly enjoyed my week of relaxation and exploration, there wasn't anything I wanted that wasn't provided!
We had the most amazing long weekend stay in Virginia Beach. The cottage was an ideal setting for a relaxing getaway. Cozy and inviting in a quiet neighborhood just short walk to the beach. It really was perfect.
