About this property

Family Friendly 3 Blocks to Beach with Great Amenities

New for ‘23 🚨DISHWASHER🚨!! We overhauled the home in 2018 to set it up for guests to enjoy the Cape Charles and VA Eastern Shore. The home is fully equipped with all the comforts of home including a well stocked kitchen for all cooking, new mattresses and bedding for restful nights sleep, smart TVs to access all your streaming content needs. We specifically designed the home for family vacations to have two master bedrooms-both fitted with king beds. Great for 2 families vacationing together or extended family gatherings.
For the beach goers and water enthusiasts our home is complete with a stand up paddle board (SUP), two children's kayaks along with beach toys, beach chairs, umbrellas, and both a beach wagon to help transport everything to the beach. We invite you to stay in our home and enjoy all that Cape Charles has to offer.

Suggestions to improve a great house

The renovation was well done. A suggestion is to provide a gas grill. One of the burners on the electric range did not fit the pan and the overhead fan in the MBR did not work. All of these were minor except for one which was that the disposer was left clogged by the previous guest which we cleaned the P trap and the storage below the sink. You could possibly call the attention to adequately flush the disposer to have it function as it was designed.

Great family getaway

The house was very cute and comfortable! Even better than the pictures showed. We had two families with small children and we were very comfortable. Good proximity to the beach and the park with a nice playground!

Great house!

This was our sixth stay in Cape Charles, we’ve hopped all over town during those stays and this was my favorite house! Clean, comfortable and nicely decorated, which I find to be an added comfort. Close enough to walk to the beach. House is nicely stocked and the paddle board was a fun bonus!

Cape Chuck ☀️🌊⛱️

Our first visit to Cape Charles was delightful. The small beach town was quiet and filled with the friendliest people. The property was bright and open with comfortable beds. Quick walk to the beach and Main Street.

Perfect Beach Getaway in Cape Charles!

My family and I just returned from an unforgettable stay at beautiful Cape Charles, and I cannot recommend it highly enough! From the moment we arrived, we were blown away by the beauty and charm of this property and the town. The house is perfectly situated, just a short stroll from the beach. The neighborhood is peaceful and welcoming, providing a relaxing atmosphere for our vacation. Cape Charles itself is a hidden gem with its quaint shops, delicious eateries, great coffee, and picturesque views. Brown Dog Ice Cream is a must-stop! This beach house truly felt like a home away from home. The spacious living area was perfect for our family to gather and relax. The house was stocked with all the essentials and more. We appreciated the comfortable beds. Our hosts were exceptional, Jennifer was very responsive and helpful. This beach house exceeded all our expectations.

Fishing Trip

Took customers on a fishing trip - awesome house, awesome location. I have been going down to CC VA for approx 10+ years and this was one of the nicest/ most unique places I have stayed. The only real negative (if this even counts) is the keyless remote ( although very convenient ) was very temperamental. Didn't work in direct sun / couldn't see it. Recommend taking actual key with you.

Perfect family friendly getaway

We've stayed at this wonderful home several times now and there are several reasons we keep coming back! The property is kept updated and tidy. The amenities are fantastic especially having 3 children ages 5-8! We came with another couple and their children. There was just enough room for all of us to be comfortable in the house. The kids love the toys and all the beach stuff in the shed! The hosts are also fantastic! They are so great to work with and are very communicative. We were given the opportunity to check in early and were so very thankful to have that extra time. We can't wait until our next stay here!

Great Home Away From Home

The house was perfectly located within walking distance from both the main street, beach and local park. House was well appointed with kitchen, toys, etc. - exactly as described. Super host was in contact immediately when we need a toilet seat fixed. Would stay there again in a heartbeat!

Great family retreat!

Me and my 4 and 2 year old had a quiet, comfortable stay in the house. The house set up is excellent for kids, and could easily host two families (the other family we were supposed to travel with couldn’t come last minute) with plenty of room to spread out. I didn’t need any toys or books for my kids since they played with the ones they found. The beds were comfortable, location was a quick walk or golf cart ride to the beach and playground, and the host had everything we needed to cook at the house if we chose to. Jen was very responsive to any questions I had during our stay. We hope to visit again!

Always a great time!

This was our second time staying here. This time it was 2 families for a total of 4 adults and 3 children. We had a great time and so did the children. Our weather wasn't good for going to the beach but thanks to the shed full of things the kids had a great time scootering around! This is the most family friendly and accommodating vacation home we've ever stayed in and we will be going back! Hopefully sooner this time!

Great House

Great little house perfect for our family of four with empty beds/rooms to spare. Also great location, we were able to walk or golf cart to where we needed the entire visit. Also, the air conditioning in the house work’s wonderfully. We had issues getting into the house with the code but Jennifer was great helping us out when we called. For unknown reasons either me, husband or son could get in with the code the entire stay but my daughter had no issues with it. Only 2 issues, the kitchen countertops were not clean when we arrived, beverage spills, food and crumbs however only took a few minutes to clean up. Also, the main floor bathroom toilet was broken, not clogged and useable but continuously running water. Overall great house, we would stay there again & recommend to others

Very Nice Stay

We had a very nice stay in Cape Charles this year. We have visited here numerous times and stayed at several different properties. We've stayed in nicer homes and we've stayed in much worse. One thing to understand is most of the homes the Cape Charles Historic district are older homes that have been renovated, for the most part. This home was very nicely decorated and very comfortable inside. The beds were comfortable. The interior was clean. The kitchen is small and lacking storage- as is common with homes in the historic district. A lot of the lights are controlled with remote controls, which is a first we've seen in a rental property. This is not a good thing when you have young kids who like to hide things, lol. There are also what I am guessing to be "smart bulbs" in some of the fixtures, as the dining area lights blinked constantly and we had no idea how to stop them from blinking. There are PLENTY of kids games and toys in the house. If you're bringing kids, you probably don't need to pack any toys. The outside of the house is very neatly kept. There is a foot wash on the side that was nice when coming in from the beach. The shed in the back is well stocked with beach toys, bikes, kayaks, chairs and a nice beach umbrella. The location is perfect. It is only 3 blocks to the beach and only a few blocks to the shops on Mason Ave. Jennifer was a very accommodating and responsive host. We addressed all of small concerns with her and she has stated she will address them.

Another wonderful stay at Awe Shucks

This is our second year at the house and we had another wonderful stay. Jennifer is quick to reply to questions and even helped us out of a bind when we left an important package behind. The house is an easy walk or cart-ride to the beach and is well-stocked. The first-floor shower/laundry room is perfect for cleaning up after the beach. We'd love to stay a third time!

Room for all ages

Thanks for a lovely vacation! The porch can’t be beat and is a must for Cape Charles. Communication with the owner was above and beyond. Towels and bedding were lush and comfy. Kids loved all the books and toys. I’d didn’t break out any of the ones I brought from home so don’t pack them! Pack n play was also great. We all used items from the beach shed. It was very helpful having the large umbrella and chairs. Yay for the addition of a dishwasher! Kitchen is well stocked with bowls and plates etc. Perhaps a little space could be cleared for items/ snacks we brought. The sofa is super comfy and plenty seats for all. Downstairs master was perfect for my older parents. Upstairs was lovely and perfect for our family of 4. Could have fit more! Location was great. I’d say equal distance to downtown and beach. We walked to the beach every day without a problem. My dad would drive and park on the street. Either way you want to get there is super easy. Thanks again for sharing your space with us! We made wonderful memories.

So much more!

This was one of the best places we have ever stayed! And definitely the best to stay with a small child. The house is adorable, well kept, close to the beach, and full of amazing surprises! For starters the owner is beyond awesome when it comes to communication! She let us know exactly what to expect at the house and provided a list of things we didn't have to pack that she provides! The home included kids toys inside and we didn't even have to take out the ones we brought with us! The shed is full of outdoor toys and things! The owner has done such an amazing job with this house. It was everything described and so much more! We will definitely be coming back!

3 Generation Getaway

Charming house in a quiet neighborhood within walking distance (3 blocks) of the beach. Although we went out to dinner each night, the kitchen had all sorts of appliances available. Great "beach shed" with chairs, beach toys, etc. We are already planning on when we can return next year. My granddaughters (6 & 8) loved the front porch swing!

Why they chose this property

We visited Cape Charles once and immediately fell in love with the small town beach feel it provided. We knew it would be a place we would return to again and again so we opted to invest in the community. We are now willing to open up our beach home and share with you so that you too can enjoy all Cape Charles has to offer

What makes this property unique

We are a family with children and therefore our home has elements that cater to families and children
