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: Simply awesome. The apartment was one of the prettiest we have ever stayed in! Clean, light and airy, beautifully decorated. Sipped coffee on the veranda with a book in the mornings, then a wine in the evenings while we watched happy vacationeers stroll the charming street below. One block walk and we were on the beach swimming or on the pier watching breathtaking sunsets. Bike and kayak rentals also only a block away, alongside a seafood restaurant with an outdoor bar overlooking the bay. It really was quite perfect.

This was a great 1 bdrm apt that was close to the shops and the beach. It's was very cute very clean and I enjoyed my stay. Be aware there are a set of steep stairs to get into the apt, so if you have knee or ankle issues it may be hard to get into .

Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: This was a great spot for a weekend getaway We went mid-September so it wasn't crowded, parking was easy, and the shops and restaurants were still open. The condo is clean, comfortable, well stocked and just steps away from shops and restaurants. There is a concrete production plant directly across the bay but it didn't disturb our overall experience. We still enjoyed sitting on the deck to watch the sunsets and people out and about. We will visit again!

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: This quaint, quiet upper level condo is ideally situated on the edge of the shopping district, putting it close to the beach and to cafes, restaurants and the local cidery. It's a short walk (and shorter golf cart ride) to anyplace you want to go. The condo has all you need for a comfortable stay: a fully equipped kitchen, laundry, linens and towels. It is charmingly decorated with seahorse and mermaid themes, which amplifies the beach views from the balcony. Great for a couple looking to get away for the week.

Check in was very smooth. I thought the property was much nicer than the pictures suggested. Located in the heart of old Cape Charles which is a great location. Walk to beach, great places to eat and interesting stores. Keptopeake state is about 6 miles away with another geat beach, hiking trails, fishing, and birding. The host was exceptional. The TV was working when I checked in, but then there was no reception. They were on top of getting it fixed and it was quiet clear that they wanted to provide me with exceptional service. They could not have handled the situation any better. One suggestion for the eastern shore: Recycling would be great. I am taking all of plastic back home, but it would be good to drop it in a separate container from the trash. But, everything else made it a wonderful trip, no hassles.
