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.

Reviewer Comments:
Sunset Shores provided the absolute perfect vacation for our family. Our party consisted of three generations, ages 2-71, and everyone had the best time. The house was perfectly appointed and had the best stocked kitchen I have ever seen in a rental. The rental company was great to deal with and provided great service. The screened porch was a favorite spot for everyone, and the little boys loved the putting green. The yard was perfect for playing in and the close proximity to the beach access made it nice with small kids having to go back and forth to the house frequently. The only bit of confusion we had was that the community pool is a bit of a drive away which was not ideal with small children. Overall, I highly recommend this house and would love to return off-season as well to enjoy the amenities this house offers year-round.
