Cottage vacation rentals in York County

We loved our stay! The week flew by. Great location.

Our stay in this home was such a treat! We enjoyed utilizing the kayaks to boat around in Chesapeake Bay. The hot tub was an absolute delight, perfect for evening stargazing, saw lots of shooting stars, and could see the water of the bay from the hot tub. We also enjoyed doing November cold plunges from the hot tub to the pool. While the living room is not expansive, it fit our needs for family game & movie nights. The bed linens were so comfortable, and Lori was beautifully responsive & friendly when we would reach out with a question. We also enjoyed the nearby Sandy beaches.

We had a great time staying here! Clean, modern, fully stocked home just as described in the listing and photos. The sunsets over the water are indescribable. Relaxing hot tub, wonderful outdoor space, lovely campfires, and comfortable bed and bath rooms made our trip stress free and extremely enjoyable. We barely left the property - we felt right at home. Our point of contact host, Ana, was very responsive and communicative. Would definitely recommend! Look forward to booking again in the future! Thank you for a vibey holiday weekend!

We stayed five nights at this adorable, cozy yet spacious beach cottage. Everything was as described. John was incredibly responsive and helpful with any questions. The grounds were well maintained and many different activities if you enjoy those things. The walk to the beach was less than a minute, unless you stop to take in all the garden spaces and various seating on the way. The outdoor shower was perfect for washing off the beach sand. Beach was clean and offered a lovely view. The cottage space itself was well laid out. Beds were very comfortable. The shower space was a little tight for my companion which I suppose is to be expected in a 100 year old cottage. The porch was absolutely wonderful in the evening, sitting outside in the cooler air and the breeze, but it also offered shade during the day. It is clear that John has a passion for hosting. We caught glimpses of him and his crew regularly stopping by to maintain the property. We really enjoyed our stay here.

This place is amazing.... We had an awesome family vacation!!

Enjoyed the stay. Comfy beds with wonderful cotton linens. Cute interior. Nice, quiet off season experience. John’s recommendations for smaller local favorite restaurants were good choices. Nearby recreation centers offer day passes and lots of indoor activities for cold or rainy days. Just right for our family trip. Highly recommend.

John’s place was great. He’s easy to get ahold of if necessary. Good communication through the app prior to our arrival. The carriage house was easy to find and clean. The property is right on the beach and the grounds are beautiful. We enjoyed having our coffee under the pergola right at the dunes. There are bird feeders right there and it’s very peaceful. We watched the ships come in from the ocean and did some beach combing too. We’d definitely recommend this spot. We’d stay again if coming back to Norfolk.

We absolutely loved staying here! It was the perfect distance from Cape Charles where we visited during the day. It was the perfect little getaway!

Fabulous stay at the Ladybug! Host was outstanding with communication and responsiveness. House was exactly as described if not better. Location was not far from places to go yet so secluded and peaceful. Wish we could have had more time there and looking forward to coming back soon. Thank you!!

Wow! We had such a wonderful time at Mr. Roger’s place! The house was just beautiful and clean. The weather caused us not to be able to enjoy the pool and beach, but thats no fault of Mr. Roger! We will definitely book here again. Thanks again!

This was one of the cleanest Airbnb places we have stayed. It’s a well maintained older home. They left a nice little welcome gift that was very sweet. Easy walk to the beach and there is an outdoor shower to get sand off. There is a park across the street for walking dogs which was very convenient as they cannot do their business in the yard. It is a very busy street, but there is a crosswalk at the end of the block. There isn’t much within walking distance so you do need a car. The host was very responsive the two times we reached out. The only negative is the internet is not great for working if you need to be involved in zoom or video meetings. You need to have a good signal on your phone to piggyback off of, for normal browsing it is fine. If we ever need to return to Norfolk we would absolutely stay here again!

Beautiful cottage, well stocked. They thought of everything. Very clean. Great location to beach, sightseeing and restaurants!

Had a great stay! Chuck was really nice and super responsive. I felt right at home as soon as I walked in. Chuck really went above and beyond making sure we had everything we needed. He even made sure my pup had toys and treats. 😎 I will definitely be coming back. If you’re looking for a great place to stay for an excellent price, you should 100% stay here!

This was the perfect find for exactly what we needed- a peaceful and quiet few days to escape our hectic everyday. The home was cozy and lovely and exactly as described. Cape Charles is a gem of a town and we look forward to coming back!

This is our second time staying at Sunset Haven— appropriately named. Gorgeous sunsets and weather was perfect. Great and considerate communication with Terri. House was pristine and had every thing you could need. We will be back! Thank you Terri!

This was my second stay at Kathy’s and it was great. The location is perfect. Within easy walking distance to the beach, restaurants and a local brewery. And the fenced in yard was perfect for my pups.

This place was just amazing. The views of James River, and even the Jamestown settlement across the river (using binoculars) was just mind-blowing! Kevin and Jamie left a wide variety of amenities that were extremely thoughtful and useful, to include hygiene products, charging cords (which was a life saver because for literally the first time ever, I forgot my phone and iPad cords), coffee, and even a margarita kit! The cottage is so cozy, and was very clean. I’m definitely going to book here again.

What a perfect cottage! Beautifully (but comfortably) furnished, right on the water, incredibly well-stocked. Arranged so families can spread out, or gather together. Everything you could possibly require or desire for a vacation or getaway was there. And the area is full of things to do--walks, birdwatching, antiquing, or, if you're an architecture geek like me, historic sites and buildings. You're also a 3-minute walk from the best restaurant on the Northern Neck, Merroir Tasting Room. Can't wait to come back.

We had a wonderful stay! The house is immaculate and well taken care of with everything you need for a comfortable stay including great local recommendations. We enjoyed watching a beautiful sunset sky while relaxing on the deck. It was a very easy check-in/check-out. Would return and would recommend. Thanks for a great stay!

We can’t express how much we enjoyed our stay . It was more than we expected ! Rose was so accommodating . And she makes the best Belgium waffle with fresh organic fruit and granola we have ever had . It’s worth every penny !! And the coffee was approved by my husband that’s a Veteran that loves his coffee . Thank you Rose for making our two short days there a great memory . And I’m going to get that outside shower I’ve been wanting for years !!

Great clean place. Only a minutes walk to the beach. Neighborhood was very nice and quiet. Would definitely recommend to anyone looking for a place to stay in VA Beach.

Talita was an absolutely delightful host. She knew we were in town for our granddaughter’s first birthday and made sure we had the best experience possible celebrating. The patio and grill were the perfect spot to enjoy a family dinner while taking in the beautiful scenery surrounding their home. The cottage was just as described, bed was very comfortable, and the shower was incredible as many others have stated. Trust me, you won’t be disappointed if you book here. Thank you so much Talita for sharing your slice of heaven with us and allowing us to make so many special memories at your lovely home.

Such a cute, well stocked and clean cottage. Extremely quiet neighborhood. Sunsets over the bay were stunning. Jennifer was easy to teach and communicate with.

Excellent place to stay, Kathryn was available for any issues and the location was so close to the town everything was walkable. Loved sitting on the front porch watching the world go by and drinking coffee in the morning and wine in the evening. The house was comfortable and well stocked. Loved the Polar Springs water dispenser. Would recommend this place and come back again. Thanks Kathryn.
