About this property

Southern Comfort on the Bay

Just a short stroll to the beach (approx.10 min. walk), Southern Comfort on the Bay, located in the historic district of Cape Charles, Virginia, offers luxury and comfort, while providing guests with the splendor and charm of a beautifully restored historic home. This home provides a perfect balance of old and new, and has all the modern conveniences of home, while preserving the charm and craftsmanship of the 1920s. Beautifully restored original heartwood pine floors and woodwork are much appreciated by our guests.

The restoration of the home provided many upgrades, including granite countertops, stainless steel appliances, and beautifully tiled bathrooms. The kitchen has a state-of-the-art JenAir stove, with an indoor grill, which makes cooking fun for all. This property provides all the comforts of home that one desires while vacationing.

The game room will provide hours of fun and entertainment for children and adults alike. Games, books, and puzzles are available for all ages. Teens and adults alike will be unable to resist a foosball challenge.

Southern Comfort on the Bay is located one street over from Mason Street, where you will find restaurants and shops. Talented local artists display wonderful coastal paintings, jewelry, etc. for sale at the shops on Mason Street.

Get ready for some southern hospitality as you walk down Mason Street, as Cape Charles is known for its friendly Mayberry feel.

Don't forget to enjoy the great Cape Charles fishing pier. You just never know what you may find on your hook!

Please note that during June, July and August we focus on long term rentals only (weekly to monthly).

About the host

Hosted by Debbie Suddeth

Host profile image
Our family visited Cape Charles to explore the Eastern Shore of Virginia years ago. We found that Cape Charles provides a great balance of activity, history, nature, and relaxation. With our busy schedules, we look forward to visits to "the shore" and have come to appreciate Southern Comfort on the Bay more than we ever imagined.

Why they chose this property

Our home is one of the nicest in Cape Charles, and we talk a lot of pride in maintaining the home to keep it clean, updated and comfortable for guests. Off street parking is on site which takes the headache out of parking!
