Host profile image

Our family has been operating Emerson's Cottage as a short term rental since 2015. We pride ourselves on a clean, welcoming and stocked home for your beach vacation. We live and work in VB so we’re a text or call away. We want our guests to destress and enjoy a slice of the beach life!

Why they chose this property

Less than five minutes from the oceanfront and boardwalk, as well as shops, dining and activities (fun park is on 16th street), this property is at the heart of the Virginia Beach oceanfront.

What makes this property unique

Beach cruisers are fun for the entire family! The Virginia Beach boardwalk is the best place to "cruise" which makes the bicycle collection a must have. We have two arcade games, lawn games and beach toys for the whole family to enjoy. Large front yard, patio and two grills is the perfect setting to gather the family and enjoy the salty air.
