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.

4 stars because it was overall a great experience, but there were some confusing/frustrating aspects as well. The house itself is lovely! Very spacious and clean, with comfortable beds, a well-appointed kitchen, and screened-in patio. Some aspects of the home/listing were generally unclear; for example, there is a picture of the sauna in the master bathroom in the listing, but no instructions provided re: how to use it or even if we COULD use it, and the rental company never followed up on our request for instructions or clarity either way. The rental company also provided a "digital guide book" that ended up being entirely useless and even included *incorrect* info about trash pickup, for which we never received clarity/response. Also seemed like we were communicating with TWO completely different rental companies at certain points? Never connected with actual owner. Many drawers/cabinets had personal effects strewn about, presumably the homeowner's... it made us feel awkward about unpacking and using the dressers and some of the closets, as if we were intruding instead of truly there as guests who were supposed to make ourselves feel at home. The resort/HOA is well maintained, but there was no map provided nor exact location/instructions regarding which pool we were supposed to be using or how/where to access the private beach area vs. areas that were "off-limits" unless we were resort guests. All-in-all, we WOULD rent this property again, now that we know what to expect!

Response from VrboOwner on 29 August 2026
Thank you so much for taking the time to share such thoughtful and detailed feedback. We’re really glad to hear that you enjoyed the home overall and found it spacious, clean, comfortable, and well equipped. It’s wonderful to know that the kitchen, comfortable beds, and screened-in patio helped make your stay a great experience. We’re truly sorry for the confusion and frustration caused by some of the information and communication during your stay. We especially apologize that you didn’t receive clear instructions regarding the sauna and that your request for clarification wasn’t properly followed up on. We understand how frustrating it is to have an amenity shown in the listing but not know whether it’s available or how to use it. We also appreciate you pointing out the issues with the digital guidebook, including the incorrect trash pickup information, as well as the lack of clear directions regarding the resort pools and private beach access. We understand how important those details are when you’re arriving somewhere new, and we’ll share this feedback with our team so we can work on making the information more accurate and easier to follow. We’re also sorry that the personal items in some of the drawers, cabinets, and closets made you feel uncomfortable about using the space. Our goal is for guests to feel completely at home during their stay, so we appreciate you bringing this to our attention. Thank you again for your honest feedback and for letting us know that you would still consider staying with us again. That truly means a lot to us. We hope to have the opportunity to welcome you back and provide an even smoother experience now that we know where we can improve.
