Everything was great from the brilliant Sunset to the wildlife (dolphin, cormorants, pelicans, eagles, seagulls, ghost crabs). The private beach was the ideal place for fun times with the grandkids. The house easily accommodated our party of 7 adults, 3 children and two dogs. The rooms were clean with all the necessities (soaps, shampoos, towels) supplied. The family enjoyed the hot tub, while viewing the beach. And, the dining areas, both inside and outside, were spacious and comfortable. We had ample parking, and easy access to the beach. Even had time to enjoy a couple of football games on the large TVs placed throughout the house. Communicating with the Host was excellent, very responsive, and gave a sense of genuine caring.

This was our second visit and we stayed for four days and absolutely loved it. The place is amazing, with beautiful views, plenty of space, and everything we needed for a relaxing getaway. The sunset was one of the most amazing we have ever seen! It was perfect for our family, and we already know we have to come back.Highly recommend this home to anyone looking for a peaceful and memorable beach stay.

Great property and amazing location

We stayed here previously and will likely stay again! The property was well appointed and very clean. Tons of space for our group of 6 and the amazing location really can't be beat. For a beach vacation this is a wonderful stay and the property manager was kind, quick to respond to messages and we look forward to our next trip here.

Wonderful house with great beach access

The house was large enough to accommodate our family which included 7 adults and 2 children. It was well maintained and vey clean. The house is on the beach with great access. It was like having our own private beach for most of the stay. Cape Charles is a quaint beach town a few minutes drive away with good restaurants and local shops.

Perfect Family Spot!

Our family lives in different states and never is able to see each other together but this year we booked the whole group at this spot and it was amazing! There was plenty of space, everything needed to make everyone happy from the 1 year old to the adults. It was quiet and secluded but still close to a shop for last minute stuff. The beach was ridiculously clean and there was sea life everywhere! Can't wait to book again for next year!

A Beautiful Place to Be

The house is beautiful, and the location exquisite. The weather wasn't great while we were there, but it didn't matter. The sound of the waves provided a relaxing backdrop in addition to the tranquil beach walks we went on. We only saw one other person walking the beach the entire weekend. The hot tub was warm, and the kitchen had everything we needed. 10/10 recommend this home!

A Slice of Paradise

Arriving to this property was a jaw dropping moment, the view is incredible. The house is gorgeous, pristinely clean, and well stocked with everything we needed for a picture perfect weekend away for our family of 15. We enjoyed the private beach, hot tub, and endless amounts of fun this home offers. Watching dolphins swimming by and sunsets were magical. Our whole family agreed this home was up there as one of the best places we’ve ever stayed. The owner was very responsive and left a sweet welcome surprise. We can’t wait to return to this gem of a place.

Thank you for having us in your beautiful home. It was a much needed and watch restorative space. We had difficulty with the fireplace but were able to figure it out. Even after changing the batteries, it wasn't able to light. I think it had something to do with an order of operations laugh out loud. Thank you so much.

It’s an amazing property! Very secluded and peaceful. It was nice to be in the hot tub and still be able to see the kids on the beach. The kids found whole sand dollars, lots of shells and saw many crabs and dolphins. There were 12 of us and there was plenty of beds for everyone. There’s a lot of stairs/levels so just be aware if you have someone with mobility issues. The house was stocked with everything! It was so nice. Plenty of pots/pans, dishes, spices, paper products, beach towels. In order to get to the property you have to take the underground tunnel. Just a warning that the toll for that tunnel is very pricey. 16-21! There is a grocery store pretty close and also a dollar store and restaurants (you can get to all of these without using the tunnel). We had a wonderful vacation and would definitely go back!

Vacation home at Cape Henry

This vacation home at Cape Henry is a lovely, well equipped house that easily accommodated our party of 14. Even in late winter, we enjoyed walks along the private beach, games in the yard, foosball in the basement, star gazing on the deck, dips in the hot tub, and family meals around the the table. The kitchen is well equipped with supplies and it stocked cleaners, dishwashing products as well as paper towels. All three bathrooms were completely stocked with bathroom products. The house stocks a large set games, puzzles, books, and coloring supplies. We especially enjoyed the surprise welcome gift from the owner, who was kind and helpful during the reservation process, easy to reach by phone, and made our stay very pleasant indeed.

We are long time vacation renters. This was our second trip to this wonderful property. ‘We’ is a senior, my 2 adult children spouses & 6 young adult grandchildren. There is plenty of room for all of us, found it clean & well-appointed. Our favorite place is the superb beach-we rented kayaks for the week. We do tons of cooking & found the kitchen well stocked. Shopping is close by but we also took a drive into Virginia Beach for some ‘finer’ options.Host is gracious & quick to respond to any questions we had.We would love another visit & definitely recommend the property.
