About this property

Entire place

You'll have the entire home to yourself and will only share it with other guests in your party.

Family Friendly 3 Blocks to Beach with Great Amenities

Welcome to our family-friendly Cape Charles beach retreat — thoughtfully designed for relaxing getaways, memory-making, and easy Eastern Shore living. We completely overhauled the home in 2018 with guests in mind, blending ESVA coastal charm with all the comforts of home to create the perfect escape for families, couples, or multi-generational vacations.

The home features a fully stocked kitchen ready for everything from pancake breakfasts to seafood dinners, comfortable living spaces to unwind after a beach day, smart TVs for all your streaming favorites, and new mattresses and bedding to ensure restful nights after long days in the sun.

Designed specifically for family travel, the layout includes two spacious primary bedrooms (one on the main level), each with king beds — ideal for two families vacationing together, grandparents joining the trip, or simply giving everyone a little extra space to relax.

For beach lovers and outdoor adventurers, we’ve stocked the house with everything you need to enjoy Cape Charles to the fullest. Guests have access to a stand-up paddleboard (SUP), adult two person kayak, two children’s kayaks, beach toys, chairs, umbrellas, and a beach wagon to make trips to the sand simple and stress-free.

Whether you’re spending your days exploring the calm Chesapeake Bay waters, biking through town, enjoying local restaurants and shops, or simply relaxing on the porch with family and friends, our home is the perfect base to experience everything Cape Charles and Virginia’s Eastern Shore have to offer.

We’d love to host your next beach getaway.
