Always enjoy our stay at Zoe's Cottage
5/5 Early fall at Zoe's Cottage is especially nice. The days are warm, and nights are pleasantly cool. After four stays, the cottage is like a home away from home. Comfortable furniture and tasteful decorations highlighted by the owners artwork create a pleasant and peaceful atmosphere. It's a great time of year to walk on the beach or sit on the bench on the dune. This year it was a little rainy so we spent some time at a local antique store. The sun came out just enough to attend a Tides baseball game, and check out the annual Neptune festival and sand sculpture competition. We highly recommend booking a stay at Zoe's Cottage.
Just Wonderful
5/5 My family stayed for the 2nd time at Zoe's Cottage and it was just as we remembered! Three years later, the home was still perfectly clean upon arrival, had all of the beach essentials in the shed outside, had the essentials for cooking in the kitchen, and had the same peaceful, relaxing feel that we needed for our week away. We ventured out to the Virginia Living Museum (definitely a favorite for our 2 kiddos) and the Virginia Aquarium (very, very crowded but nice - glad we saw it but probably won't revisit just due to the busy-ness). We mostly cooked at the house but did check out the Ocean View Fishing Pier restaurant which was good and had live music playing that evening. We saw dolphins on several occasions and caught and released mole crabs and ghost crabs. The bay is calm enough that our littlest doesn't get knocked over by the waves, but still fun for our oldest to swim and boogie board. We had a nice stretch of beach all to ourselves. The porch and the bench atop the dune are favorites for me. This is the perfect place to get away, relax, enjoy family time, and forget the worries of the world for a while. If you're looking for a place that is private, peaceful, and relaxing - this is it!

5/5 The sweetest lil cottage right on the water.
Clean, charming and very cozy. We loved the quiet neighborhood. We could kick back and relax in Zoes cottage. Felt safe and right at home!

Privacy in Civilization
5/5 Very calming colors, comfortable rooms. Wonderful back porch facing the beach. Beautiful views. It’s a place where I could stay for a very long time. Close to everything but completely private. Thanks for the details that made this
