Very clean, great location, owners were incredibly responsive and friendly. The golf cart was a huge plus! The house seems to still be on its way to being renovated as the furnishings and kitchen supplies are pretty sparse. Also not enough seating at the kitchen table for the amount of people the house sleeps so just keep that in mind if you plan to be making a lot of dinners etc at the house. Overall, great stay!

We had a great week in this house. The kitchen was nice and the rooms and beds were comfortable. Awesome location, a block over to all of the shopping at Mason Ave. We enjoyed taking the golf cart around town. The host was very responsive.

We absolutely loved Cape Charles and we loved this house. It was perfect for 5 of us to stay comfortably. There was a large dining table and kitchen, perfect for us to have other family members staying in the area over for dinners. It was close to the beach and restaurants. The host was also very accommodating. We hope to go back one day.
