Sweet Victorian Beach Cottage

Right in Historic Cape Charles!!! Just a minute walk to the Marina and a few minute walk to the beach, this Victorian beach house has all the modern comforts downstairs, with a huge modern kitchen, spacious living room with gas fireplace and brand new half bath, coupled with the sweet charm of a chic cottage upstairs with three bedrooms and a full bath.

Outside it has a large fenced yard with a big back patio for BBQing and hanging out. It has a private outdoor shower with a full closed in changing area and a shed packed with beach cruiser bicycles, beach toys, chairs, umbrellas, lawn games such as corn hole....everything you could need for a family fun packed getaway.

All attractions are just a walk, bike or golf cart ride away! We have a 5 passenger golf cart with utility cart available for separate rental fee and must be pre-arranged.

The house has a good size master with a Queen size bed (sleeps 2) as well as a family suite that has one room with a full size bed (sleeps 2) and another with bunk beds (sleeps 2).

Our property has a washer/dryer combo unit great for small loads and we provide all the fresh linens and towels you could need!

Great time

We had a great stay! The location is perfect to take a quick golf cart ride to the beach or to the downtown area. The house was a great place to wind down and the outdoor shower helped keep the sand out of the house. The owner was great to communicate with the entire stay.

Great Week Away

We really enjoyed our stay. The outdoor shower was a major bonus! The house was tidy, had ample towels and beach towels to borrow, washing machine, games, books, coffee, no clutter and Lenore was super responsive throughout our stay. We rented the golf cart for a couple days, which was fun and made traveling around town very convenient.

Perfect for a Fun Visit

The house was well equipped, clean and a great space for a family visit, especially with COVID still raging. We were able to have dinners with family at the well appointed dinning table, as well as spend time on the little patio. Having a washer/ dryer was a great bonus and if you need groceries, the store is not even a ten minute car ride. We would definitely stay here again!

Cozy home, close to beach and shops!

Wonderfull rental in a quiet neighborhood. Home has a large kitchen, sitting area and three bedrooms. Downstairs 1/2 bathroom is a plus and so is the huge yard. Owner is very service minded, provides for all that is needed. All that makes a stay at this particular home, relaxing and memorable!
