Attending a wedding at The Oyster Farm / King's Creek Marina? This is one of the closest Historic District rental homes to the wedding venue. It's a 1 minute car ride or a pleasant walk!

Our family purchased this home in 2013 and immediately began a complete renovation (and re-configuration!). The goal was to maximize the modest size and allow the property to function like a much larger home, while maintaining the original style and charm. The renovation was completed in 2014. Over the years, we have expanded the outdoor space to include a patio and playset for children. Our family has made many memories in Cape Charles, and we welcomed our first VRBO guests in the fall of 2017. Since then, we have enjoyed sharing all the town has to offer with others.

The house was our “home away from home” after a busy day at the beach. It was great to come home and cook dinner in the amazing kitchen/open floor plan. The bedrooms are all upstairs so your partner can sleep in while you make breakfast for them. The outdoor area is neat and well landscaped. The outdoor shower was terrific. It was a fantastic spot for a short vacation. I only wish I would have had more time to make it a longer vacation. Highly recommend this property and the owners.

We had a wonderful time. The house was very clean and living area is a good open layout. 3 bedrooms and the bathroom had ample space. Would suggest some hooks in bathroom to hang towels or toiletry bag. Kitchen had the necessary amenities. It is a short walk to the Main Street and the beach although we drove. We had a wonderful time visiting CC!

Beautifully decorated, but not overly fussy, the on-line photos are 100% accurate. A lovely front porch to sit on, and a nice backyard spot. We used the grill for several dinners and the kitchen was with well stocked with everything we needed to cook. We loved walking to the beach and exploring the neighborhood. The hosts responded quickly when we had questions, thank you!

We stay at a lot of rentals every year and this is by far our favorite and here’s why: 1) It’s impeccably clean. 2) You can tell the owners invested in high quality furniture & furnishings which holds up well throughout the season. 3) We stayed here two years ago and since then it’s held up extremely well. There is hardly any wear and tear (because of #2). 4) The decor is perfect. Not overdone, tasteful beachy. 5) It has just what you need without the unnecessary extras that tend to bog down other rentals. 6) The location is amazing! 7) Outdoor shower!!!!! 8) Owners are extremely helpful and easy to work with. You won’t be disappointed staying in “the fish house”. We can’t wait to come back again next year!

This was our first trip to Cape Charles and we are in love. This home was immaculate, newly renovated, wonderfully equipped. It felt like the hosts were really trying to make this a welcoming spot and though of small details: spices in the cabinet, bottled water. We loved walking around the beautiful neighborhood and spent a lot of time on the porch and backyard. Really special place, we want to go back!

The property was incredibly clean, the check in process was easy, and it was convenient to the beach. Because we have 2 kids (a 2-year old and a newborn), we drove the 1 minute drive to the beach for convenience, but it’s definitely walkable. Matt was communicative and the stay was all we needed for a quick family getaway.

Second time staying at Matt and Mary’s cottage - just as great this time around! Cottage is perfectly clean and cozy, and it has everything you need. Plenty of space for our little family (2 adults and a preschooler). Blocks from the beach - just a minute to drive! Can’t wait to come back!

Our family of four absolutely loved this sweet house and all it had to offer. The kids loved the play set in the shade after a day at the beach. The outdoor shower was so convenient and we appreciated the beach chairs available to us. The kitchen was stocked with plenty of utensils and serving dishes. All around a perfect stay!

This house is so beautiful - the pictures can't fully capture it and do it justice. We really enjoyed our stay here! It's a simple, 10 minute walk from the beach (or a 1 minute drive). Everything in the house is peaceful and comfortable. We enjoyed sipping our morning coffee on the front porch and reading there when it rained, the kids loved the back yard - they played on the playset for hours every morning and evening. We loved using the outdoor shower and the beds were very comfortable. The whole placed was immaculate and they did an incredible job with the renovations - it felt brand new! We had no issues the entire week, which was a refreshing change after our experience staying at a different property only a few doors down last year. We highly recommend staying at this property and hope to book another stay here for our trip to Cape Charles next year!

We loved our stay in this house. It was comfortable, exceptionally clean, convenient, and quiet. We cooked a few meals in the very-well provisioned kitchen and ate out a few times, too. We rented a golf cart to scoot around town and preferred to be a bit further from the beach, as this spot was extremely quiet. Our three-year-old ended up with a pretty nasty stomach bug, but Matt was understanding and kind in our communication describing the situation. If and when we return to Cape Charles, we'd definitely book this house again.

We enjoyed our 2 night stay at Matt’s beach cottage for my 30th birthday weekend. Open concept first floor great for entertaining/socializing, childrens toys, children’s books, pack n play, nice bath towels, well appointed kitchen with spices and cooking wear, outdoor shower and many other features to brag about. Matt was a great communicator during our stay and was immediately available to answer questions.

The home was nicely renovated. However, the water coming out of the shower was brown the evening we arrived making the shower and drinking water unusable. The water turned from brown to green on Saturday. We didn’t feel safe taking showers or drinking the water and as a result left the property early on Sunday morning. I texted the owner who obviously was aware of the issue because he left a gallon of drinking water for guests in the fridge. I would not rent this property again until the water situation is investigated and tested for safety. I would appreciate a refund for part of the stay since the home was unusable.
