We traveled to Northern NC / Southern VA over Independence Day weekend this year. Our timing was determined by work commitments and we didn't honestly realize we were going to a tourist destination over a prime vacation weekend. As a result, we were unprepared for the expense of available lodging and the scarcity there of.
We often stay at AirBNB's when we travel, but always choose "entire home" rentals where we have a private residence to ourselves.
We discovered Philemon House on our bazillionth AirBNB and/or Hotels.com search of the area and it looked wonderful. There had to be a catch ... and there was. This was a private ROOM rental. Not a full home/space. After discussion and review of the listing, we decided to give it a try anyway. We love new experiences and we had 2 days to fill.
Conclusion: WE LOVE PHILEMON HOUSE!
From the amazing coffee bar
To fresh cooked breakfast and dinner each day ..
To refreshing beverages waiting for us "just because" ...
Our stay here was amazing. Melanie is an amazing cook. She also loves Jesus and practices hospitality with a grace that simply must be her spiritual gifting.
Our bedroom was decorated with a nautical theme. Perfect considering our proximity to the coast.

We were surprised by, but appreciated being provided our own key for our individual bedroom as well.
If you're visiting Virginia Beach, or traveling up/down the east coast, make a point to spend a night or ten at Philemon House. You will be so happy you did!
