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 more than happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: This house was perfect for our family of 8 adults, 2 kids and 3 babies. We really enjoyed the open plan first floor well-stocked kitchen and living room set-up, and having four separate bedroom spaces upstairs with en suite baths for each small family to separate off to. We did stick to the keurig for coffee because the full pot machine was on the fritz.While it's location is not peak Cape Charles, being outside of the historic district, it's just a few short minutes via rented golf carts or drive to get into the thick of it. With the young kids, we actually preferred being in the gated community with little to no traffic to worry about. The management team was super helpful. We arrived to Cape Charles a bit before 4pm check-in and they were willing to text us when the house was ready after turning over about an hour early. During the stay, we had one snafu where the A/C stopped working due to a flipped fuse and it was promptly taken care of. We would return again next summer!

Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: We love Cape Charles and have stayed there many times. This is a very nice house. Large, great bedrooms, comfortable beds, Nice set up, lovely kitchen. Great for multiple families but it definitely needs some maintenance. Many light bulbs were out, fence gates hanging off, trim hanging on back porch, Also no coffee maker (which is a must). This house is far to beautiful to not be maintained better.

The house was perfect for my Birthday celebration with my family! It was clean and the layout comfortable and inviting for family gatherings especially in the kitchen and family room area! Please make sure the shower upstairs is fixed completely for your next guests. Also thanks for having the bikes and beach stuff in the garage; would suggest an accesible air pump for the bikes, luckily we had one and enjoyed the bike rides. Overall great house and the staff at Chesapeake Properties are wonderful!

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: We have been coming for the past few years to stay in the adorable town of Cape Charles. Great little shops and places to eat..."small town America"! Grab a golf cart to zip around the town! Make sure you hit the wine and cheese shop for John's daily picks (very nice guy...we tend to buy our weekends worth of his recommendations!) Have stayed at this home a couple of times and its BEAUTIFUL and fits the needs of our group that comes. Christy was easy to work with for our reservations and quick to respond to a minor issue we had with the tv!(Who comes to the beach to watch tv...right...BUT we didn't have the best weather. We would TOTALLY recommend this house and Chesapeake Properties to everyone...won't be disappointed! Can't wait to return next year to the Wave on Wave...and the BEACH!!

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: We were in town for a family wedding. Did not spend much time at the house. However it was large and comfortable. Had 3 king beds which was perfect. And a 4th bedroom for kids or extra sleeping. We were 7 adults. The house could have more coffee cups. I washed them by hand so not to run dishwasher everyday The ice maker was not working so I needed to buy ice. Overall beautiful house in a lovely area close to town. I would definitely recommend Wave on Wave. Property management was friendly.
