Cape Charles is embraced by water on three sides: commercial town harbor and yacht center (south), public beach (west), and marina (north). It's a wonderful setting if you love the water! Park Place is 3 blocks from the beach (Bay Ave.) and 2 blocks from the shops on main street (Mason Ave.). We are a mile from Bay Creek's two signature golf courses by Arnold Palmer and Jack Nicklaus, with top ratings by Golf Digest. The area promotes eco-tourism opportunities, including kayaking (even kayak/wine-tasting trips to a local winery), fishing off the town pier, hiking, and birding. You can rent jet skis at the harbor, bicycles, and golf carts. The town often has festivals, planned recreational activities for children and adults, and sometimes shows, movies, or live bands in the Park.

Really enjoyed our trip to Cape Charles, house was super cute, clean and comfortable. Home has everything you need for your stay! House located blocks away from everything and our dog loved walking around the park in the evenings, we will definitely be back to stay! Thank you!
You can tell this property is well maintained. The kitchen had new appliances and was well stocked with everything you need to cook except food! The linens were fresh and the rooms were clean. This VBRO is 3 blocks from Mason street and 3 blocks from the beach. Best of all, you can walk everywhere! Great location, I'll definitely come back.
Wonderful stay at the Twins on Strawberry Street! The space was perfect for our family of 4, and all of the extra amenities (beach chairs, wagon, cooler, sand toys) made our daily beach outings so easy! The location across from the park was great, especially for the Saturday night summer concert. What a treat! Well stocked home, seamless check-in and check-out, great communication with host.
Wonderful weekend getaway to the quaint and quiet town of Cape Charles. We thoroughly enjoyed our time here and the location was excellent-right across the street from the park, walkable to the town and the beach made it highly convenient! The house itself was a bit worn but well kept and spacious enough for our family of five and our dog. Overall, lovely stay and would recommend.
I stayed with a few friends and a 7 month old. We had a great stay. The location was perfect and house was exactly as expected. Would stay again next time I’m in Cape Charles!
We had a wonderful time in this cute, quaint, clean home - perfect location to enjoy the beach, the town/restaurants, the playground, tennis courts and so much more! Outdoor shower was a huge plus!
My family and I just returned from cape Charles and strawberry street! The house has everything we needed for a perfect stay! A little hiccup with a lock to the shed was immediately responded to and resolved! The kitchen is well stocked, plenty of room for my family to spread out and also hang out! The location was perfect and the fenced in yard was well enjoyed by our dog!
The house was beautifully decorated. Cozy and homey. Had lots of games, coloring and chalk for our kids. Across from a park and so close to downtown! Would definitely stay again!
Our family stayed here for Christmas and it was the perfect spot for us. The house is located directly across from Central Park and walking distance to anywhere in town. The house was clean and in great condition. It had everything we needed. Would stay again.
We stayed for a week and enjoyed every bit of it. House is well furnished and equipped in a great location.
My daughter really liked finding a bin with art supplies. She used it our entire stay.
Property was exactly as pictured. Kitchen was well stocked for our needs. Beds were comfy. Loved the proximity to the bay. Owner responded quickly to all of my questions prior to us arriving. We really enjoyed our stay!!!!
We had a great stay here, the proximity to the park was wonderful and such a short walk to the beach. We loved the outdoor shower and small yard. We were thrilled to see there was a high chair and some kids books for our little one. Thank you!
It was a perfect place for our family of 5. The park is right across the street. It is a very short walk or golf cart ride to get a cup of coffee. Getting to the bay is a short ride by golf cart as well. Everything is so close in Cape Charles.
The location was absolutely perfect! We rented a golf cart which made travel to the beach, shops, and restaurants extremely easy. In addition to the beach, our family enjoyed the lovely park across the street; great place to walk and for our granddaughter to play.
The owner has equipped the rental so nicely that you feel comfortable and at home!
We had a wonderful stay here! The house is in an ideal location for a family and very comfortable with all of the basic necessities provided. We could walk to the beach with the dog in the mornings, walk downtown for dinner or ice cream, and of course right across to the park to play and we even caught the Saturday night concert in the park! We loved the outdoor shower for after the beach as well. The house is historic, which gives it beautiful charm with some well done updates, but still has some quirks that show its age. Our only disappointment were some broken things such as the beach carts, the blinds in a few rooms, and a few cosmetic things. However, we would certainly stay here again!
We had a great stay. The house had everything we needed. Cooking was easy with previous posts being accurate about what the owner provides. The owner was very fast and helpful responding to any requests during our stay. Once we arrived we could easily walk to restaurants or the beach. Thank you!

About the host
Hosted by John Gavin
Jennifer and I live outside of Richmond with our two children and also thought about the day we could have our own beach house. We have been coming to Cape Charles since 2014 and really love everything Cape Charles has to offer.
Why they chose this property
We saw this property and instantly knew it is exactly what we wanted. We wanted to have a place that we could have family and friends come to visit and also have potential to have some rental income. This gave us the opportunity to create memories for our family and also have other families enjoy our home and experience Cape Charles.
What makes this property unique
The unique benefits of this home is the location! It is right across the street from central park and also only a couple blocks from the beach and restaurants in town. We wanted a location that was convenient to everything in town.
