Beautiful cottage, great location

Rating Details: The property manager was more than helpful. The vacation rental was very clean. I was very happy with the location. I was more than satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: Hummingbird Cottage was a great getaway. The house was comfortable and nice. The kitchen was well stocked, the front porch was wonderful right on the park, and the back deck was perfect for grilling. The location on the park and near the beach and restaurants was the best possible. The bath/shower in the second bedroom was the weak spot. It doesn’t drain well at all, the shower curtain hung narrowly around a claw tub leaves no room to not have it clinging to you and covers the shelves to put toiletries. We all ended up sharing the master shower. Otherwise it was lovely!

Great Space and Location

Our family of 4 with 2 young children enjoyed our stay in Cape Charles, especially the park access and front porch! The space worked really well for us overall. Our only 2 complaints were zero communication in response to inquiries in advance of our stay (both through vrbo and the property manager's email directly) and the HVAC system should be serviced.

Hummingbird Cottage on the Park

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: Lovely, well appointed cottage adjacent to the park. Our adult children and their families stayed at a big house near the beach. Hummingbird was a quiet retreat for us grandparents - minus the chaos of 4 kids under 10 years old.

Perfect Spot for a Small Family!

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: Our family of three really enjoyed our week at the Hummingbird Cottage! It’s right across from the park and a short walk to the beach. Also a few blocks from the main street with lots of local shops and restaurants. The open concept living room was cozy and we loved hanging out on the back porch. The only drawback was not having an outdoor shower for when you come back from the beach. We miss Cape Charles already!

Best place to stay!

We absolutely loved our stay at the Hummingbird Cottage. It was so well located, right on the park, 5 minute walk to main drag (Mason Street), and 5 minute walk to the beach. The house is perfect for a family of four. The one level, open concept floor plan made watching the kids easy while we cooked and cleaned. We loved that we could walk right out and take our kids to the playground or a walk around the park. The house is also so adorable. Every room was nicely decorated. They really thought of every cute little detail. It was a very nice mix of modern and antique like touches. The kitchen had modern appliances and was a pleasure to cook dinner in. We loved sitting on the back porch at night and our kids loved running around the little backyard. There is a grill to use but we didn’t end up using it during our stay. If you visit Cape Charles and have a small family I highly recommend you stay at the Hummingbird cottage. You won’t regret it!

Quaint and cozy cottage

Right away, we were impressed with the cleanliness and the tasteful style, making this feel more like a home than a rental. It felt very cozy and intimate, perfect for our family with little kids. The location across the park and near the playground was a plus. As was being four short blocks from the beach and Main Street. The house was really well stocked with extra paper goods, and the kitchen had all the knives, pots, bowls, dishes and glasses one would ever need. We will be back next year!

Best rental property in Cape Charles

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: This is one of the nicest, cleanest, well-appointed vacation rentals we’ve ever booked. The owners and property managers have gone far beyond the basics to make this house special. Especially for a couple. Staying on the park rather than waterfront is actually better in walkable/bikeable Cape Charles. The front and back porches are lovely and comfortable for relaxing, the interior furniture is comfortable, and the interior design is thoughtful. Only bad experience was at Ambrogia restaurant. The owner is foul-mouthed and nasty. When we told another restaurant owner about our experience there they said, “Yes, not surprising. [Ambrogia Owner] is not a nice human being.” Avoid at all costs!

Great small cottage for family with young kids

Rating Details: The property manager was more than helpful. The vacation rental was very clean. I was happy with the location. I was satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: The location of Hummingbird cottage is excellent for families with young kids as it faces the town park. We had an issue with ants in the living room on the first day which made it difficult to sit on the sofa. The property management company responded quickly but the ants were still around for the length of our trip. Most of the home was neat and clean and well-appointed. The furniture on the back deck has not been swept and was not clean. I recommend installing an outdoor shower for guests to rinse sand off after the beach. We used the hose in the backyard. Worked ok.

Best Location in Cape Charles!

Perfect spot for a family with small children. You are right across from Central Park that has a great playground, and easy walking distance to downtown. We stayed there in the winter so didn’t go to the beach but there is a gas fireplace inside so it was ideal. Kitchen is well stocked (bring your own seasonings and oils). They have cable and good wifi but you’ll need to use your own devices to watch Netflix, Hulu, etc.

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was more than satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: Hummingbird Cottage was perfect for the 2 of us, but could have accommodated 4 comfortably. The location gave easy access to the beach and the town. The covered front porch looked onto the park, and the back patio was well furnished. The property management company, Chesapeake Properties, couldn't have been nicer or more helpful! We had a great stay!

Fantastic stay

We enjoyed staying at the Hummingbird! What a great location right across from the park. It’s walking distance everywhere but we still rented a golf cart for the fun. Perfect trip with teens. We enjoyed the house’s decor, board games and comfy beds. Thanks!
