Getting Around:
Cape Charles is located near the southern tip of Virginia’s Eastern Shore right on the Chesapeake Bay. Cape Charles is a small town (the historic area is roughly a six block by six block square) that sits on the peninsula’s western coast… meaning you can sit on the beach in Cape Charles and watch the sunset right over the water. On the Chesapeake Bay, not the Atlantic Ocean, the water is calm and shallow. The picturesque town of Cape Charles is filled with Americana, all about family and beautiful surroundings, voted one of the Happiest Seaside Towns by Coastal Living. Let the beach be your playground! Check out the walkable retail district, schedule a tee time at one of Bay Creek's award-winning golf courses, or take a water adventure for fishing and cruising.

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: My family and I have never been to Cape Charles but we really enjoyed out stay at the condo. It was decorated so cute and had almost everything we needed for our stay. There was no blender on site but I called ahead of time and was advised the condo had this. While there I called and they were very accommodating and bought us by a blender to use for our babies food. The condo also had two children kayaks and my kiddos enjoyed using those! We would definitely come back.

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: Above it All was a fantastic stay for just a few nights to a favorite spot for our family-Cape Charles! The apartment was surprisingly spacious, clean and absolutely perfect location to the shops, restaurants and beach. No need for a golf cart! The beach wagon that was included with the apartment was a game changer for our family heading to the beach each day. Elevator was extremely helpful in getting all of our luggage up to the third floor. We would stay here again!
