Oyster Roast Headquarters

We used the house as our home base for an oyster roast weekend. The ladies said the house was "super cute". It was exactly as advertised. Worked perfectly for our group of 6.

Anchors Aweigh

This place is better than the pics. Recently updated and very nice. May be better stocked for supplies than any any rental I have previously used including paper towels, toilet paper, spices, beach towels and chairs, indoor and outdoor games etc. Nice open layout and 4 blocks to beach and 2 blocks to downtown.

Perfect stay- we’ll return!

This house was a dream. We have stayed in 2 other cape Charles homes before and this was the best yet. Clean, spacious, and with all the amenities we needed. The back yard is beautiful and shaded for much of the day. Beds were comfortable, showers were great. The house supplied 9 beach chairs, umbrellas, and an outdoor rinsing area. Our group of 8 fit very comfortably. Thank you for hosting us!

Location, location!

We loved the location! It was our first trip to Cape Charles. We are a family of 5 with 3 little kids (ages 7, 4, and 2.5) and the house was perfect. The kids were obsessed with the upstairs arcade machine. The kitchen was great with tons of room. The bathroom on the second level is shared by all 3 bedrooms but it was perfectly fine. It was a great renovation and so fun to check out all of the details! The decor was really nice. I loved how beach towels were included and even beach chairs! Rent a golf cart and enjoy cruising the island. We had such a good time. We definitely want to come back next year!
