About this property

Cape Serendipity - sister to existing ID#2395726

Cape Serendipity - we found it by chance and stayed because we love it! We are sure you will feel the same! This 2 story duplex home is in the heart of historic Cape Charles, a block from the park and only a few blocks from the beach. We have 3 bedrooms ready for up to 8 guests, a bath restored with an amazing antique claw foot tub, a new 2nd bathroom on the 1st floor, and a new back deck with outdoor dining. Packing will be easy because we have your beach and baby gear already here for your use. Check out our sister property Cape Utopia (the other side of the duplex) if you need more space.

Everything was wonderful. The house is very clean and very well decorated. Great location close to the park and just a short walk to the beach. Cape Charles has become our new go to beach.

Comfortable well appointed house for a family
Our group was made up of four adults and two kids ages 6 and 9. The house was clean and well appointed for our needs. We had a wonderful stay. The supplied beach cart was a simple thing but helped quite a bit. We would stay again.

Historic charm
We enjoyed our stay at this duplex. It has tons of historic charm. The beds are extremely comfortable. Everyone slept great! We especially liked having a king sized bed in the master. The kitchen is well stocked but doesn’t have a dishwasher which wasn’t an issue for us. We enjoyed our mornings on the front porch and loved the proximity to the park. Overall a very enjoyable stay.

Cape Serendipity
This was our 5th visit to Cape Charles and we have stayed at different properties each time. We spent 5 nights at Cape Serendipity with our family of 5 in June 2024. We very much appreciated the modern bathrooms, strong air conditioning, plentiful hot water for showers, and comfortable beds. The house was also very well-stocked in terms of beach gear and toiletries (we didn't cook much so can't speak to the kitchen, but it certainly had everything we needed). The house was spotless when we arrived. My only note for future renters: the two smaller bedrooms get a lot of natural light but don't have thick drapes, so if you have kids who go to bed early, I'd recommend bringing temporary stick-on shades in the summer. Thanks for a great stay!

Beautiful home
We loved our stay at Cape Serendipity. Elizabeth was readily available during the check-in process, and the home was clean and well stocked. Our kids, 8 and 6, really enjoyed the nearby park. The beach was also in walking distance, and we loved the sunsets in the evening.

Great stay at Cape Serendipity
We had a great trip to Cape Charles. The house was perfect for our two kids and dog. You're walking distance to everything at Cape Serendipity and the beach was still pleasant in October and great for the kids with the water being so shallow. They had a pack and play, child gate, and a high chair there already! The only thing that could have made the stay better would have been blackout curtains. The kids were up with the sun each morning, but that did help us enjoy our trip to the fullest! We highly recommend this house!

Labor Day Weekend get-away
We chose Cape Serendipity because of it's central location to the beach, bars/restaurants and the park for the Saturday night concert. It did not disappoint! We were pleasantly surprised at the spacious rooms, the lovely back porch, and how well supplied it was. Elizabeth was very helpful with several logistics as we prepared to ride our bicycles from Snow Hill, MD to Cape Charles for the weekend. It was a great value and we would definitely stay again!

Delightful place
We loved this house! It had so much character, was very clean and comfortable. They left us some wine and coffee too! We had a wonderful stay and absolutely would return! Only thing I might say is this house is not baby proofed for a toddler. Our granddaughter was not crawling yet so it was no problem.

Cozy and Quiet -- A Great Getaway
Well maintained old 1/2 house with nice amenities and thoughtful extras; ideal for a couple or small family with young kids. An easy 10-12 minute walk to the beach. The one bathroom is nicely equipped with both tub and shower, but it is just one bathroom and that may be an issue for larger groups. We were briefly locked out due to dead batteries in the keypad, but Property Manager Elizabeth came to our rescue and all was promptly resolved. All in All, Cape Serendipity was a wonderful place to stay for this couple and our two dogs!

family time:
The house is a lovely and quaint house with great accommodations for young children. The furniture is also comfortable. We enjoyed sitting on the front porch also. It was a very relaxed atmosphere. Being so close to the park is also a benefit. The caretaker was immediately available when we had a situation that needed attention in the house.
