Liked: Location
House overlooks the park so good if traveling with little kids. Golf carts can be rented directly and it was awesome having them stored away in the garage. The 6 seater golf carts is very fast and both are very nice golf carts. Note that there is a resident that lives above the garage. The stairs to the garage unit come into the backyard and the tenant does laundry in the garage. So, if renting golf carts and have garage access, anything you store in the garage is accessible by the tenant. The first night we were there, the tenant parked behind the garage blocking our ability to get the golf cart out of the garage. We had to contact the owner for resolution. I would not have rented the house had we known there was someone else living on the property…we either missed this in the listing or it’s not clearly noted. Additionally, one golf cart was not charged when we arrived. Owner tried to say it was operator error but after charging for a few house, we will able to get the golf cart to start. No discount for the loss of use for a first day was offered.

Anchors by the Park was a perfect stay for our family of five, plus grandparents! The location was amazing, right next to the park & playground and an easy walk or ride to the beach or into town. Having the golf cart on-property was so convenient and we used it all the time. The rooms were great for us and the kids loved the loft & arcade game setup. The two porches were wonderful for relaxing in the mornings and evenings. We would definitely stay again!

About the host

Hosted by John McLaughlin

Host profile image
Originally from Philadelphia, (John) and my wife (Rachelle) is from New Orleans, however we make Virginia Beach our home now and have been in the area since 2003. We have been making trips to Cape Charles during this time and really enjoy the small-town charm of the place. In 2015, we decided to embark on building a vacation home that we and others can utilize as a getaway from what is usually a busy schedule.

Why they chose this property

Our new custom home is made perfect for relaxing, with everything close by. It's an easy walk to the beach or to the main street in town. My favorite is sitting on the front porch in the summer and enjoying the concerts on Saturday nights in the park, great seats without leaving the house. If you have kids, the playground is right past the neighbor's house.

What makes this property unique

Enjoy the concerts in the Park right from the front porch. If you are traveling with children, you can send them right outside to the swings in the playground to keep them occupied, if needed. You do not have to go far to take a peaceful stroll along the pathway in the park, located across the street in front of the house.
