Family Friendly 3 Blocks to Beach with Great Amenities
New for ‘23 🚨DISHWASHER🚨!! We overhauled the home in 2018 to set it up for guests to enjoy the Cape Charles and VA Eastern Shore. The home is fully equipped with all the comforts of home including a well stocked kitchen for all cooking, new mattresses and bedding for restful nights sleep, smart TVs to access all your streaming content needs. We specifically designed the home for family vacations to have two master bedrooms-both fitted with king beds. Great for 2 families vacationing together or extended family gatherings. For the beach goers and water enthusiasts our home is complete with a stand up paddle board (SUP), two children's kayaks along with beach toys, beach chairs, umbrellas, and both a beach wagon to help transport everything to the beach. We invite you to stay in our home and enjoy all that Cape Charles has to offer.

The house was very cute and comfortable! Even better than the pictures showed. We had two families with small children and we were very comfortable. Good proximity to the beach and the park with a nice playground!
Our first visit to Cape Charles was delightful. The small beach town was quiet and filled with the friendliest people.
The property was bright and open with comfortable beds.
Quick walk to the beach and Main Street.
We had a lovely time in this home. Comfortable beds, well apportioned kitchen, and walking distance to the beach made for a great stay. Thanks to the hosts for the hospitality!
This was our sixth stay in Cape Charles, we’ve hopped all over town during those stays and this was my favorite house! Clean, comfortable and nicely decorated, which I find to be an added comfort. Close enough to walk to the beach. House is nicely stocked and the paddle board was a fun bonus!
We had a great stay! Awe shucks was the perfect place for our family to stay and relax. The house was so accommodating and we enjoyed the porch. We love how quiet the street was compared to the main strip. We would highly recommend staying here!!
We had the best time at Awe Shucks. Beautiful home, with everything you need, and a perfect location. The owner was incredibly kind and responsive. We can't wait to come back!
Awe Shucks was the perfect rental for our girls weekend. It had ample bedrooms and beds and had a great living room space to hang out it. It is also located perfectly to enjoy all Cape Charles has to offer.
Very comfortable house. Kitchen is stocked, great mattresses and bedding. Location is quiet and near beach and town. We just love Cape Charles and this charming home
Lovely vacation home in a great location, we throughly enjoyed our stay. Quintessential porch sitting in Cape Charles. This is a great house for families with everything you could need. The host gave excellent communications throughout the stay. Thank you!
This is our second year at the house and we had another wonderful stay. Jennifer is quick to reply to questions and even helped us out of a bind when we left an important package behind. The house is an easy walk or cart-ride to the beach and is well-stocked. The first-floor shower/laundry room is perfect for cleaning up after the beach. We'd love to stay a third time!
We've stayed at this wonderful home several times now and there are several reasons we keep coming back! The property is kept updated and tidy. The amenities are fantastic especially having 3 children ages 5-8! We came with another couple and their children. There was just enough room for all of us to be comfortable in the house. The kids love the toys and all the beach stuff in the shed! The hosts are also fantastic! They are so great to work with and are very communicative. We were given the opportunity to check in early and were so very thankful to have that extra time. We can't wait until our next stay here!
Took customers on a fishing trip - awesome house, awesome location. I have been going down to CC VA for approx 10+ years and this was one of the nicest/ most unique places I have stayed. The only real negative (if this even counts) is the keyless remote ( although very convenient ) was very temperamental. Didn't work in direct sun / couldn't see it. Recommend taking actual key with you.
This was our second time staying here. This time it was 2 families for a total of 4 adults and 3 children. We had a great time and so did the children. Our weather wasn't good for going to the beach but thanks to the shed full of things the kids had a great time scootering around! This is the most family friendly and accommodating vacation home we've ever stayed in and we will be going back! Hopefully sooner this time!
The house was bigger inside then we expected, nice and open. The wifi and the upstairs king bedroom with a desk worked well for a family member to do some remote work. The beach chairs, wagon and sand toys were great and the beach was just a short walk. The kids from age 2 to 10 all loved the beach and swam hours each day. We would love to come back.
What a lovely home! We had a wonderful stay! The kids loved the room upstairs for gaming and the grownups enjoyed visiting on the back deck and front porch. It was nice having an Alexa for music on the main floor, and the AC was very efficient! The beds were very comfortable, and we enjoyed being just a few blocks from the beach!! We had a fairly large group for meals, but there was no dishwasher…that was the only minor inconvenience our whole trip!
My family and I just returned from an unforgettable stay at beautiful Cape Charles, and I cannot recommend it highly enough! From the moment we arrived, we were blown away by the beauty and charm of this property and the town.
The house is perfectly situated, just a short stroll from the beach. The neighborhood is peaceful and welcoming, providing a relaxing atmosphere for our vacation. Cape Charles itself is a hidden gem with its quaint shops, delicious eateries, great coffee, and picturesque views. Brown Dog Ice Cream is a must-stop!
This beach house truly felt like a home away from home. The spacious living area was perfect for our family to gather and relax. The house was stocked with all the essentials and more. We appreciated the comfortable beds.
Our hosts were exceptional, Jennifer was very responsive and helpful. This beach house exceeded all our expectations.

Suggestions to improve a great house
The renovation was well done. A suggestion is to provide a gas grill. One of the burners on the electric range did not fit the pan and the overhead fan in the MBR did not work. All of these were minor except for one which was that the disposer was left clogged by the previous guest which we cleaned the P trap and the storage below the sink. You could possibly call the attention to adequately flush the disposer to have it function as it was designed.
This was a great getaway for my family of four and grandparents. My kids are preschool age and this place had plenty of toys, books and beach toys to play with for the week. We were so appreciative because it makes the beach that much more exciting for everyone.
There’s an Alexa in the kitchen to help with timers or whatever you need. The decor was cute and bright. The owner was very communicative before and after and we had zero issues throughout our stay. Would definitely recommend!!
We loved the house. Just an FYI. There is no dishwasher but we made it work. Also we loved the water cooler! Some of the towels were in the bottom of the hamper but were clean once we found them. And the bedrooms upstairs did not have top sheets. We loved the location and the porch and the house made great use of space!

Why they chose this property
We visited Cape Charles once and immediately fell in love with the small town beach feel it provided. We knew it would be a place we would return to again and again so we opted to invest in the community. We are now willing to open up our beach home and share with you so that you too can enjoy all Cape Charles has to offer
What makes this property unique
We are a family with children and therefore our home has elements that cater to families and children
