Getting Around: Cape Charles is located near the southern tip of Virginia’s Eastern Shore right on the Chesapeake Bay. Cape Charles is a small town (the historic area is roughly a six block by six block square) that sits on the peninsula’s western coast… meaning you can sit on the beach in Cape Charles and watch the sunset right over the water. On the Chesapeake Bay, not the Atlantic Ocean, the water is calm and shallow. The picturesque town of Cape Charles is filled with Americana, all about family and beautiful surroundings, voted one of the Happiest Seaside Towns by Coastal Living. Let the beach be your playground! Check out the walkable retail district, schedule a tee time at one of Bay Creek's award-winning golf courses, or take a water adventure for fishing and cruising.

Almost heaven
Great time spent with family in a very nice house. I was delighted to see the cleanliness of the home. Very nice updated furnishings. Kids loved the dead end road so they could ride their bikes!.Just a short golf cart ride to the beach.

Birthday celebration with family
The house was perfect for my Birthday celebration with my family! It was clean and the layout comfortable and inviting for family gatherings especially in the kitchen and family room area!
Please make sure the shower upstairs is fixed completely for your next guests. Also thanks for having the bikes and beach stuff in the garage; would suggest an accesible air pump for the bikes, luckily we had one and enjoyed the bike rides.
Overall great house and the staff at Chesapeake Properties are wonderful!

Wave on Wave review
The place was very spacious and a great location. Wave on Wave needs a deep cleaning including all kitchen supplies. We hand washed everything before using it because everything felt greasy or had food stuck to it. The main shower was backed up with standing water and was not fixed while we stayed. It would also be helpful to have a working icemaker in the freezer.

Great fit for bigger family
Beautiful home and great for a bigger family. The community was quiet, as the house was located in the newer developed part. The private beach is located in the sister- gated community, but is worth the 5 min drive. Clean, calm, clean bathroom facilities, and perfect waves for young children. We all had a great time, it was hard to leave!
