Bay Cottage was charming, comfortable and the location was just perfect. We could walk to the beach in less than a minute. It is well stocked and beds were very comfortable. We loved the layout and the boys loved all the games. We especially enjoyed the big screened in porch in the evening and the outdoor shower in the back for getting all the sand off. Our hosts were wonderful and communicated with us from the time we booked and even called once we got settled to make sure we had everything we needed. We highly recommend Bay Cottage!

The house was as listed and the photos give a fair idea of what to expect. It has old home charm with no modern updates, but it was clean, functional, and had plenty of space for our family. The location was great — an easy walk to the beach — which made our stay even better. We also appreciated the hose in the backyard and the strong water pressure in the shower (with helpful notes from the host on how to adjust it).One thing to note for future guests is that there’s no Wi-Fi and the TVs don’t support streaming — just a collection of DVDs and VHS tapes. It wasn’t what we expected, but we made do and it encouraged more family time together.Overall, the house worked well for our stay, and as long as you’re comfortable with a more traditional setup, it’s a nice spot in a great location.

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!

This is a quant beach house. Some peculiarities in our opinion as I’ve never been asked to wash laundry or linens at a VRBO especially when paying a cleaning fee. Also, the bathrooms need updates due to local water conditions staining and making the tub and bowls look unfavorable. Shower curtains need to be changed more often if local water conditions discolor and make the areas look unclean. On a positive note, the home is very close to the beach. Just note that you must bring your own beach chairs, towels and make sure to read the details of the listing for all amenities (i.e., WiFi..)
