Chesapeake Bay View

Chesapeake Bay View

10/10 Excellent
"We had a great stay! We love Cape Charles and have been there many times. I would say, we had three young kids in our group and this home is not very kid friendly, so keep that in mind! There were many more decor items within arms-reach than you'd typically expect in a rental home. The beds are also very tall (an adult needs a stool to get in and out), so not young-kid friendly. Finally, the home is very old, and the doors do not all stay closed without locking the latch. So while it's a lovely home and a PERFECT location, we likely would not stay here again unless we were kid-free!"
