About this property

Cottage with private beach!

A quiet and cozy cottage boasting a sun-drenched beach with small dunes. We are tucked away from the hustle and bustle with a quick commute to the entire Chesapeake area.

Enjoy endless fun as you bask in the sun, go for a swim, make a sandcastle, fish from the shore or watch pods of migrating bottlenose dolphins dance in the air.

The entrance begins with a temperature controlled enclosed front porch. Enjoy a recently updated kitchen sporting a bright and cheery paint scheme complimented by a butcher block breakfast bar.
The dining room provides a front row seat to spectacular sunrises each morning with a wide unobstructed view of the Chesapeake Bay's horizon. It is absolutely a breathtaking sight!
As you glide past the breakfast bar, the room opens into a nautical themed living room. CA/CH keeps it nice and cool on hot summer days complimented by ceiling fans in every room.
The living room is furnished with a full-size sofa & loveseat with recliners & wood plank flooring. 50” Smart TV in LR w/high speed WI-FI to utilize your streaming services. YouTube tv also included.
Large utility room adjacent to the kitchen with loads of cabinets, W/D complimented by a menagerie of small kitchen appliances ( microwave, toaster oven, blender, Keurig, coffee pot etc.) & plenty of kitchenware. Both are generously stocked with supplies to jump start your stay.

The master bedroom is equipped with a Queen size bed, 32" Smart TV, walk-in closet and a full master bathroom with stand-up shower. The Middle room features a full size bed. The third room/children's room includes a set of twin beds, closet full of books and games, conveniently located next to the hall bathroom with a tub/shower combo.

We absolutely love this place. It's the perfect little gem for anyone who loves the beach. It's peaceful, the people are so friendly, and the actual house is nice and cozy. The house itself is perfect for our family of 4 and comes with all your standard appliances and home amenities. The beach access is cleared and flat for easy traveling (and a super short walk), and the actual beach is beautiful. We can't wait to go back!

Beach cottage with excellent location - private, comfortable, even comes with dolphins, crabs, and air shows daily. The strawberry moon was awesome - photo doesn’t do it justice.

Relaxing Stay in Quaint Cottage

The house was exactly as described. The kids loved the beach and there was a pod of dolphins that visited regularly. It was a little off the beaten path but that was what made it relaxing. It's about 30-40 minutes to Williamsburg and VA Beach but there is plenty to do in Hampton Itself. If we come back to the area, it will be the first place we check if it's available.

Just an outstanding property! 10/10. First off the location simply cannot be beat. You’re right on a private beach and it’s so relaxing and beautiful. The house is so stocked with thoughtful touches - forget your nightly tea? No worries, they have a selection! Forgot to pack dishwasher pods? They have some! Second the beds were comfortable and the house is deceptively large inside. Third, the neighbors are just super friendly nice people. You really feel welcomed. This is a true find and we plan to come back! Excellent stay.

About the host

Hosted by Ken

Host profile image
This house is a family heirloom and we can only afford to keep it with the help of our guests. We want you to enjoy this small paradise just as we did as kids and later as adults. Our goal is relaxation for you and yours!

Why they chose this property

Buckroe Beach has been in our blood since as long as we can remember. From the dunes that were once on the end near the stone wall, to the fishing pier, the public beach and the long gone amusement park, it is part of us just as our soul is and we never want to leave.

What makes this property unique

Private beach. Beautiful sun rises. American history all around.
