Great location but unwelcoming and uncomfortable rental experience

My wife and I stayed here for our 28th wedding anniversary. We’ve been staying regularly at rentals in Cape Charles for over 15 years and this was easily the most unwelcoming experience we’ve ever had. It started with an extra contract we had to sign and return and a weird way to pay. We were called immediately after we arrived which may have been a coincidence but felt weirdly timed. There were rules posted in many places in all caps and detailed lists of what to do and what not to do. We just generally felt unwelcome and uncomfortable the entire time. The water smelled like boiled eggs and hot water lasted for 1 shower. There’s no WiFi, one small TV with basic cable. I’m sure all these details are clearly listed in the description but after staying at many similar rentals, this was not an enjoyable experience for us.

Quick get-a-way

We planned a quick get-a-way and decided to come to Cape Charles to spend the day and stay over night. The house was charming with plenty of room. The owners communicated well and they were very accommodating on my last minute trip planning. The beach wasn’t far at all and town was in walking distance with nice weather. We came in March so it wasn’t perfect beach weather but we are hoping to come back when it’s warmer!

Beautiful house in a perfect location

We only stayed a couple of nights to visit with family who were in Cape Charles for a week. This house was perfect for our family. Clean, beautiful, well appointed, comfortable beds, wonderful hosts. The location was great - less than one block to the beach and a short walk to town. I parked and did not drive again until we left. The screened front porch was a great spot for family to gather. I adore this house!!

Charming home and town

We enjoyed our first time in Cape Charles and hope to go back to spend more time. This rental is a very charming older home in a neighborhood filled with the same! The home had everything we needed inside and landscaping and w wonderful front porch to enjoy outside. Loved that we could park the car and walk to shops, restaurants and to the beach. Looking forward to another visit.

Fun Girls Getaway

My friend and I rented the Bay Cottage for a relaxing fun weekend in Cape Charles. This was our first visit to the area. The location is great, not even a block to the beach. We were able to park the car Friday and walked all over town and didn't get back in the car until we left. The water pressure in the shower is fantastic. The house was clean when we arrived. Loved sitting on the front porch talking. Visiting Cape Charles was fun. There are several unique shops and restaurants and friendly people.

Beautiful House

This house is beautiful, looks like it has a lot of original details. It made a wonderful setting for our family to relax together. We had a small issue with the lights, and the owners were fantastic. They responded immediately, helped us fix the problem, and even sent an electrician to make sure everything was safe (he said it was likely a manufacturing issue with a lightbulb- no problems with the house). We had an excellent time, and hope to get back there soon!

Delightful beach house

We thoroughly enjoyed our week at this beach house. Located right across the street from the beach this house perfect place for a summer beach vacation. We were 4 adults and two kids ages 3 & 5. There was plenty of room to relax either on the screened in porch or the livingroom after a day on the beach. The kitchen was well stocked and the diningroom has plenty of seating. The bedrooms were spacious and the beds were comfortable. Located close to a park for kids as well as lots of restaurants and shops. There was plenty to like about this house!

Bay View Beauty Cottage

This was the perfect sized cottage for my daughter and her two sons ( 9 years and 10 years old). It is a quaint cottage style with all your basic needs. Having front and back screened porches is such nice convenient features. We used the back porch for all the beach equipment and the front porch for relaxing and quiet morning coffee times. Bring your favorite DVD’s and games for rainy day entertainment. We had a wonderful time at the Bay View Beauty.
