  This was our first trip to Cape Charles and the Sunshine Cottage, but it most certainly will not be our last. We arrived on Friday, June 29th, and were greeted by a cozy house that Hank and Sandy took the time to make sure would be well provisioned. The house was clean, well maintained, and was situated in a perfect place in Cape Charles. We especially liked the eat in large kitched area and the enclosed back yard where I spent a lot of time grilling. Sandy and Hank had recommended the additional fee to add a golf cart and we could not be more pleased that we took advantage of this offer. We were able to get about the area and enjoyed just parking our vehicle and never moving it after our arrival. The town of Cape Charles is a beautiful town that encompases both early Americanna with the modern amenities of today. The town put on a July Fourth bash that we enjoyed from sunrise to the beautiful fireworks show at sunset. There are several things in Cape charles I would recommend. Kelly's Gingernut Pub was excellent and has live music Friday and saturday evenings...plenty of on tap choices and a great atmosphere being located in the old town bank. Gull Hummock Gourmet Market has a great wine tasting menu with owners who are very knowledgable and they also offer fantastic house made chocolates, plus artisanal beers, wines and cheeses from around the world. Rayfields Pharmacy has great milkshakes, Brown Dog Ice Cream has really good ice cream and several neat flavor offereings, Watsons Hardware contains many odds and ends for your shopping delite. For the Golfer in the lot, I would strongly recommend Bay Creek, especially the Jack Nicholas layout which contains breathtaking views as it winds around the Bay. The Miss Jennifer is a fishing boat we took an evening fishing expedition on...the service was very friendly and the price very reasonable for a three hour tour. There are several restuarants in town and the surrounding area. Of course lets not forget the 7 blocks of beach area. Very clean beach with a pier that juts out into the bay for both fishing and sunset watching. We have a dog and I must say that besides the house being Pet friendly ( including enclosed back yard ) the whole town is pet friendly with many shops having water bowls outside for the occasional doggie passing by. All in all I would recommend this property and the town to all and in fact have been doing nothing but talking about our stay to family and friends since our return home.

  Owner response: Thank you sincerely for the wonderful review. You were our first week long guests and it was a pleasure to have such pleasant people who love our town as much as we do. Keep comin' back. Hope to see you next year!
