the house was wonderful but it could have been cleaner. the master bath sink drained very slowly and the water pressure was low. the listing shows 2 bedrooms and 3 bathrooms, but there were only 2 bathrooms. The stocked supplies were very plentiful and helpful. the owner was very responsive to my questions. great location. would rent and reccommend to others.

This property is a hidden gem. Spotless, beautiful, cozy and the perfect home away from home. Outstanding location to the beach. We highly recommend it for future renters. Will rent again upon a return trip to VA Beach.

Great stay, convenient location!
My family has been traveling to VA Beach for over 30 years and always stayed in a hotel. Over the last 5 years, we have decided to try VRBO homes to experience other areas of VA Beach. This was our first time staying at Meadowlark and I don't know if we'll look anywhere else for next year. We loved it! Several pluses for this property 1. Frank is great and super friendly! We managed to meet him during our stay and he wanted to make sure that we had everything we needed. 2. Incredibly clean property inside and out. 3. For the coffee drinkers - a Keurig machine and a regular coffee pot are provided. Also, Frank provides some light roast K-cups as well. 4. Beds are memory foam mattresses. Firm but comfortable. The pillows are also very comfortable. 5. One roll of paper towels, back up toilet paper, some garbage bags and soaps are provided as well which is a plus. We are usually scrambling last minute to run to Harris Teeter's b/c we forgot these items. 6. Speaking of Harris Teeter's - it's a short walk and even shorter drive. 7. A very short walk to the beach and 7-11 is close by too. 8. The couches are extremely comfortable! 9. Easy entry with a keypad to lock and unlock the doors. 10. The backyard/courtyard is beautiful and private. Some cons but does not make or break our decision to go back 1. Parking is tight especially if you have a large vehicle. We have a Suburban and had two other cars been parked there, it would have been really tight but would have made it work. 2. There is only one TV in the living room. There are none in the bedrooms. Again, not make or break. My father is older and would prefer to watch Football or movies vs sitting at the beach so we were at his mercy when it came to the TV. lol! 3. If there is someone staying in the second floor unit, you can hear them walking around. Again, not make or break for us, but something to be aware of. This property would be great for a large family to rent both units in this house. They would be able to make great use of the fenced in private courtyard. We hope you enjoy this property as much as we did!

Large home beach getaway
The layout of this house was ideal for our two small families with toddlers. Lots of space to run, children’s books, big backyard, outdoor shower and an assortment of beach toys/umbrellas and chairs. If you are sensitive to noise, you can hear other groups of guests walking around upstairs and the yard is shared with upstairs guests. There was one exposed outlet in the bedroom that I’m hoping the owner addresses before future stays. The kitchen was well equipped and it’s a very short walk to the beach. I would definitely recommend this as a gem of a place! Nice historical details and the furniture was comfy and lux for a beach rental.

Nice place to stay
Clean and comfortable home. Convenient walking distance to beach and boardwalk. Parking in the back. Washer and dryer. Chairs and umbrellas are available. The owner was quickly responsive to small concerns (slow running drain, light bulbs out). Would definitely rent again.

Suggestions for more comfortable stay.
Needing a hook or towel rack next to bathroom sinks to hang hand towels on, a luggage stand or something like it in the bedrooms to place open suitcases on and there did not seem to be a plug close to the bed to plug in electronic devices (phone). Also the kitchen should have a medium size sauce pan. The peeling paint should be taken care of, if children were to stay at the house the peeling paint was within their reach and a safety/health hazard.

Even better than advertised!
My husband and I spent the week with our 3 teenagers. The house is clean, comfortable and larger than it appears in the photos. The location can't be beat - only a short walk to the beach, all the action and even a large grocery store. Frank checked in and was available to help if any issues arose, but there were not any problems at all. We would definitely stay again if we return to Virginia beach. Thank you Frank - we had a wonderful time!!
