Salt Box is phenomenal!

This beautiful place was everything we hoped for… close to the beach, enough bedrooms and bathrooms to accommodate 5 people, clean and the host (Anna) went above and beyond to make our stay comfortable.

The house was perfect! Very close to the main street and restaurants. You can rent a golf cart or so close that you could walk. Hostess was very responsive and was clear on all the instructions for checking in and checking out. Will definitely rent again.

Two blocks to Mason Ave and two blocks to the beach, the location was a real highlight for us. The house was clean, and check-in/check-out could not be easier. I was a little nervous about having the owners right next-door, but they were so polite when we saw them, and that was very rare. We had a great time, and hope that it’s available for our Cape Charles trip next year.

Fabulous, clean, beautifully decorated home

Quick getaway for our anniversary. Hook and Harvey was booked but sat on porch and had a drink and then headed to Deadrise Pies. Perfect location for anything cape Charles has to offer.

This wonderful duplex is in the historic district a few blocks from the beach, the downtown and the park. The home was much larger than we expected and had everything we needed. The owners have done a nice job of maintaining the integrity of this 1915 house while updating it into a comfortable rental property. Anna responded quickly to all correspondence and checked in with us on arrival.

1st time in Cape Charles / not the last

Great location near the beach, the shops, all very walkable. The house was just what we expected from the descriptions. Very good communication, quick to respond to a very minor issue. Will definitely keep in mind for the next trip to Cape Charles.

Perfect getaway for all age groups

We chose this property based on location and amenities at the house and it all exceeded our expectations. The proximity to the public beach enabled us to see a beautiful sunset every night. Plenty of things to see and do around Cape Charles but we enjoyed it being so central to several parks to go hiking in. Anna was super responsive to any questions we had before and during our stay. Love this place! Thank you for all the memories we were able to make! 😃

The property was in an AMAZING location. It was quiet, quaint, and SO close the beach. We walked over to watch the sunset on the beach each night. We realized that alot of the locals did this and it was cool to chat with them during that time. Speaking of locals, everyone was SO friendly (we're not used to that here in Virginia, unfortunately). It was a nice change of pace and scenery for us. We were looking for a place to unwind and just connect with each other and this place gave us all of that and then some. The owners are really nice and communicates very well with the renters. I will be looking to rent here anytime we're in Cape Charles!
