Everything was perfect! We go to Cape Charles often and this was my favorite stay. Everything was in walking distance, can’t wait to go back.

Exceptionally clean, great location. Easy walk to the beach, restaurants, and shops. Backyard and the front porch were excellent spots for my kids to hang out and chill out. We loved the firepit and the upstairs arcade game! Plenty of room for our family. Kitchen was well-stocked. Was a bit cool for our family, so the extra blankets came in handy. We'd definitely stay here again!

Please check the sink in the 2nd floor bathroom. It drains very slowly.

Perfect house!

We spent a long weekend and loved it. The house is in a perfect location and decorated beautiful and has everything you will need (toilet paper, paper towels, dish soap, etc). Backyard is great with long table, corn hole and a fire pit.. You can't go wrong with this place!!

Oyster Roast Headquarters

We used the house as our home base for an oyster roast weekend. The ladies said the house was "super cute". It was exactly as advertised. Worked perfectly for our group of 6.

Anchors Aweigh

This place is better than the pics. Recently updated and very nice. May be better stocked for supplies than any any rental I have previously used including paper towels, toilet paper, spices, beach towels and chairs, indoor and outdoor games etc. Nice open layout and 4 blocks to beach and 2 blocks to downtown.

Perfect stay- we’ll return!

This house was a dream. We have stayed in 2 other cape Charles homes before and this was the best yet. Clean, spacious, and with all the amenities we needed. The back yard is beautiful and shaded for much of the day. Beds were comfortable, showers were great. The house supplied 9 beach chairs, umbrellas, and an outdoor rinsing area. Our group of 8 fit very comfortably. Thank you for hosting us!

Perfect family getaway in Cape Charles

This is a wonderful house in the middle of Cape Charles. It's right around the corner from shops and restaurants, and a short walk, or quick golf cart ride to the beach. The house was well appointed, with large bedrooms and bathrooms on every floor. The third floor stayed cool and comfortable, even with the very hot weather outside. Everything needed for a stay at the beach was provided for. Little details such as the outside shower for washing off after a day at the beach were much appreciated. I would highly recommend this place, and would visit again in a heartbeat.

Location, location!

We loved the location! It was our first trip to Cape Charles. We are a family of 5 with 3 little kids (ages 7, 4, and 2.5) and the house was perfect. The kids were obsessed with the upstairs arcade machine. The kitchen was great with tons of room. The bathroom on the second level is shared by all 3 bedrooms but it was perfectly fine. It was a great renovation and so fun to check out all of the details! The decor was really nice. I loved how beach towels were included and even beach chairs! Rent a golf cart and enjoy cruising the island. We had such a good time. We definitely want to come back next year!
