Overview
2 Bedrooms, 1.5 Bathrooms, Sleeps 4
Relaxed is the word here. Cottage is located at Smith Beach approximately 15 minutes north of Cape Charles, VA. House is an easy, 150 foot walk from the beach. The cottage is around 1200 square feet and features a living room, large bedroom, 1 full and one half bath, sunroom with futon, and a large screened porch with water views that is perfect for entertaining or quiet hours. The cottage will sleep 4 adults comfortably or two adults and several children. The beach has long expanses for walking and swimming with a lot of nature to enjoy which you typically cannot see at large beaches (enjoy the pelicans, osprey, and bald eagles as well as numerous species of shorebirds, you might even see a deer swim in the bay!) Two excellent golf courses are 15 minutes away in Cape Charles. There is a boat ramp available for Smith Beach residents and guests and fishing is typically good and sometimes great. Charter fishing is available from Cape Charles and Wachapreague which offers inshore and deep sea trips. A number of good restaurants are close by and the Eastern Shore has many interesting places to visit - Onancock is about 45 minutes and Chincoteague/Assateague and Wallops Island are a little over an hour North. Mockhorn Island Wildlife Management Area is which is known for birding is also close by. Cycling, running and walking are extremely pleasant here with many options and low traffic.
This area is quiet and relaxing, there is a lot (or little if you like) to do but the stimulation comes from nature and fun not noise and crowds. There are sunsets.

Absolutely beautiful sunsets!!!
The cottage is just as described and shown in the pictures. Everything was neat and clean when we arrived. Peaceful morning walks on the beach to the south, days relaxing with you toes in the water and your face in the sunshine and evenings combing the beach at low tide waiting for the beautiful sunset. The area is absolutely gorgeous and we are already starting to plan our next trip. Thank you Smith Beach residents.
Comfortable cottage off the beaten path.
We had a great time there. It was comfortable and had everything we needed. It was just the kind of place we were looking for. It's out of cell phone range which is an added bonus. You really can get away here. Owner is responsive and a pleasure to deal with. We, including out greyhound, look forward to returning.
not what we had expected
I think we just had a different expectation... From the pictures, I thought the house was right at the sea, but it is located across the road so there is no direct access. The cottage really smelled - just a weird smelly smell. The beach is lovely, very private, inviting for long walks and exploration. The equipment in the house is just very very old, there's almost a patina of stain on everything - again, this was my first time renting a beach cottage and I just had a different expectation. We traveled with two small kids so we had to spend more time in the house than as if it had just been us.
Nice little getaway
The private beach was awesome. Even over a holiday weekend it was never crowded and was very quiet. The screened in porch was ideal as there are quite a few bugs out this time of year. I like to cook and was pleased that the kitchen had all the basic essentials; big fridge, frying pans, baking sheets, bowls, can opener, slotted spoon, knives, cutting board, etc. The only thing that wasn't perfect was the bed— it seemed old and the pillows were very flat. Other than that, the place was nice for a quiet weekend at the beach!
Little piece of serenity
My family stayed for 4 nights. Calm bay waters on the beach. Very comfortable. Quiet neighbors. Fully stocked kitchen. Clean bathrooms. We were out on excursions most of our stay. I was a little worried since we had no way to contact the owner if anything went wrong (no Wi-Fi, cell service) but all went smoothly.
Thank you for sharing your little piece of serenity with us.
Wonderful location - a relaxing, quiet beach cottage, which allowed us to bring our pooch, too!
We really enjoyed our stay at Weirwood! We had a nice relaxing week and loved the nearby location to Smith Beach. We also loved that we could bring our dog to the cottage and to the beach. One of the days we had the beach completely to ourselves! We had some issues with the water pressure in the only shower in the house - we think the shower needs to be upgraded. The bed was a bit uncomfortable and left us feeling stiff in the morning. The kitchen was fully stocked and had everything we needed to cook and steam crabs which was greatly appreciated! Neighbors were friendly and helpful. Overall, the cottage was clean, quiet, and in a great location.. thank you!!
