Newly Renovated, Steps From Beach, Historic District, and Park
About this house rental
Renovated Single Family Home: Walking distance to BEACH and CAPE CHARLES HISTORIC DISTRICT and CENTRAL PARKOur renovated, 1906, Queen Anne Victorian is in the heart of Cape Charles Historic District. Located on a quiet, Crepe Myrtle-lined street, just two blocks from shops and restaurants on Mason Avenue, a short walk to the Chesapeake Bay/Beach, and just steps from Central Park, Cape Breeze Retreat is a quintessential beach vacation home! Cape Breeze Retreat is an ideal home for true relaxation. Just park your car for the duration of your stay because you won’t need it! Most vacationers find renting a golf cart the perfect way to navigate and enjoy the quaint town. Others simply prefer walking as everything you need is within a few blocks! While relaxing from Cape Breeze Retreat’s FRONT PORCH SWING, Rocking Chairs, or dining table on one of the two porches, we recommend that our guests follow our “Porch Rules”: Treasure Family Time, Feel the Breeze, Read a Book, Enjoy the Seasons, Listen to Music, Visit with Friends, Smile, Talk to God, Put your Feet Up, Sip Your Favorite Beverage, Reminisce, Be Grateful Outside, there is a large fenced in backyard with a garden, patio set, bench, and a small gold fish pond. An outdoor shower makes it easy to shower your family off after a day at the beach. A new HVAC system will keep you cool and comfortable on even the hottest days! As one of the larger homes in the district, you will find ample space with modern cottage house décor. The first floor welcomes you into a large foyer which includes a hand-carved newel post, a bench seat and waiting area. Cape Breeze Retreat offers a large newly renovated, fully stocked kitchen which includes a coffee/tea bar, a new half bathroom, and separate mud and laundry rooms. Beach goers can park their golf cart in the provided “cart” driveway, take a shower or rinse off outside, and enter through the back porch. A large dining table sits next to a fireplace which seats 8 comfortably with 2 more additional chairs. Adjacent Bar seating accommodates another 4. Additionally, there is a living room with a large sectional, smart television, games, puzzles, and books for your enjoyment. On the second floor you will find three bedrooms and 2 bathrooms. The master suite has a large bathroom and a queen-size bed. The second bedroom has a canopy queen-size bed, while the third bedroom has a twin-size bed over a full-size bunkbed with an additional twin over twin bunkbed. The beautifully illuminated, natural light, third level has 2 more bedrooms and another bathroom. We call this space the “Crow’s Nest”! One room houses two twin beds, while the other has a queen bed, therefore sleeping another 4 people. Additionally, the third floor offers a newly renovated shiplap, lounge space and another television. Two hammock chairs are available to relax in as well! More games, puzzles, and books are available, but more kid-friendly options. For your convenience, beach toys, chairs, umbrellas, and a heavy duty, large-wheel, beach wagon are provided for your use. Cape Charles has a way of stimulating your senses and capturing your heart. My husband, two children, and I feel in love with the town and its people from our very first visit. We hope that you are as captivated by the charm of this lovely, historic, beach community as we are!

This beautiful house was perfect for a family Thanksgiving away from home. We had 9 adults and 3 children - we had enough room to spread out and have our own space but also plenty of room to be together. It was very well stocked - We had everything we needed in the kitchen and around the house. The location was great - we enjoyed taking walks around the neighbor hood, to the park, and to the beach. The hosts were very responsive to questions/needs prior to and throughout our stay.

We had a large family group of all ages and found this home to be spacious and comfortable. The decor and updates throughout the house are really beautiful. We celebrated our daughter's 1st birthday there and our family used the trip to say good bye to my husband leaving on deployment. The kids loved hanging out in the crows nest and making s'mores in the back yard. We could walk everywhere we wanted to go. It was a wonderful first trip to Cape Charles.

Cape Breeze Retreat was the perfect place for our children and grandchildren. The kitchen/dining area was spacious, well equipped and our favorite place to hang out when not at the beach. Our three and five year olds enjoyed the fish pond! Laura was a wonderful host and very responsive to our questions. Will definitely keep this beautifully decorated home on our list for future visits to Cape Charles.

Our second year staying at Laura's beautiful home for our family vacation. The kitchen is fully stocked with everything you would need to cook breakfast and dinner each night as we did for our week long vacation. The rooms are comfortable and the house is so spacious - perfectly suited for multiple or large families! We love the location, it must be the least traveled street in town! I felt very comfortable letting my kids ride their bikes along the sidewalk and it's very close to Central Park for the Saturday evening concert and a short golf cart ride to Main Street and the beach! Laura provided tons of beach items including chairs, umbrellas and beach towels which was great to not have to pack! Check in was a breeze and Laura was always fast to respond to questions before and during our stay. Thank you so much for sharing your beautiful home with us Laura!

We've now enjoyed three wonderful weeks at this welcoming home, with each visit as pleasant as the last. Hosts Laura and Richard consistently impress us with their kindness and quick responses, enhancing our stays with their attentiveness.
The home itself, tastefully renovated, strikes a great balance between modern comfort and historic charm. Of particular note is the kitchen, well-equipped and modern—it's undoubtedly among the best in Cape Charles.
We wholeheartedly recommend this home, along with its exceptional hosts. Cape Charles never fails to charm us, making for a perfect location. If you're looking for a delightful stay in a comfortable home within a charming town, this is a great choice.

Our family of seven (five adults and two grandchildren) really enjoyed our time at Cape Charles and LOVED the beautiful Cape Breeze home we stayed in. I think it is one of the few homes that is actually more beautiful in person than it is online. Great kitchen that is more than fully stocked, beautiful back yard with Koi pond and huge pecan tree, great dining space, three bedroom spaces on the second level including a bunk room for at least four kids, and then an adorable top level "crow's nest" that sleeps at least four more. There is a wonderful wrap around porch on the front of the house, which itself is a short walk from both the beach, central park, and downtown area. I have no doubt that when we return to Cape Charles we will stay at Cape Breeze!

The house was so roomy and decorated perfectly! Communication with the owners was better than any house we have ever rented. We will def be back!

Family Friendly Summer Retreat
Such a beautiful home with easy access to the beach, the town and one block from a sweet park. The owners have made it easy to feel right at home as soon as you walk in the door. Looking forward to returning next year!

Let me start off by saying it is difficult to find a house that can accommodate 3 families (6 adults, 6 kids) so you take what you can get when you find it. We waited too long to book so when I say we lucked out when we found this gem I mean it. On top of it all they had a 3rd floor that actually stayed cool which is extremely hard to find. Laura was extremely responsive and so happy to help and answer questions. We definitely would book here again!

Family Getaway
This was our first family get together in a few years and Cape Breeze made it so special. Plenty of room, beautifully decorated and included everything we could have needed for our family vacation. Our family’s favorite spot was the front porch! The ultimate compliment was when my Pop asked if he could have the same room next time! Thank you Laura for everything, we take away so many sweet memories and can’t wait to return!

Our college lacrosse team comes back to Cape Charles year after year for an annual girls weekend and THIS house has been our favorite. The porch, the kitchen, the bedroom, bathrooms...just everything was fantastic. We chatted with the neighbors who were also very kind. Owners were easy to contact and super helpful. We loved the beach and riding golf carts around town. If you're looking for a lovely spot to getaway with your friends, THIS is it!

Really nice, big, Cape Charles house. Listing and pics are accurate. The downstairs has a ton of space in the large kitchen, dining room, and TV area. The third floor is a huge plus for kids, with two bedrooms and a large play space with a TV. The owners keep the house well stocked, way more than you would expect from a "typical" owner-managed rental. Location is great. Good idea to have a golf cart if you're going to the beach daily - and the owners have a super easy setup for parking the carts and charging right next to the house. I've stayed here before and would definitely book again. Can't go wrong.
