Cape Escape-Short Walk to Beach, Pet Friendly, Fenced Yard & Optional GC Rental

Beautiful beach house with fenced in yard, double porches and the comfort of a "home away from home" for your Cape Charles Vacation.

It offers three bedrooms and 2 1/2 baths with an outdoor shower. The spacious master bedroom is furnished with a king-size bed and adjoining full bathroom, 40" Smart Flat Screen TV, and home office space on the 3rd-floor private level. There are two guest bedrooms and a full bathroom on the second floor; one bedroom offers a queen-sized bed and a 32" Smart Flat Screen TV, with a door to the upper-level porch to enjoy the evening breeze. The third bedroom is perfect for adults and children, furnished with a full over full-size bunk bed, a twin trundle bed, and a 32" Flat Screen TV. This room also offers an Infant Pack-N-Play, Baby Gate, Board Games, Children's Books, and a door to the upper-level porch, which is secured with an upper lock if needed to ensure safety for children.
The living area has an open floor plan between the kitchen and the living room. The living room offers a 50" Samsung Flat Screen Smart TV, a comfy sleeper sofa (queen), and two swivel chairs. Our home has Free Wi-Fi, Spectrum Cable, Roku's, and all the Smart TVs' features.
The kitchen is well furnished for dining in; all updated stainless steel appliances, pots & pans, and small appliances (crock pot, toaster, blender, coffee maker, etc). We also have a nice custom farmhouse dining table, a bar area, and an infant high chair for dining.
The backyard is perfect for grilling out, with a gas grill, picnic table, and fenced-in yard. We also offer an outdoor shower, storage shed, and 4 beach chairs. We have a golf cart available to rent for $275 per week and adjusted rates for shorter stays. There is a security camera placed on the front porch for additional security while the home is vacant and during turnover, however, we do not keep it on while you are occupying the home.

We thoroughly enjoyed our 4 night stay! This house is very comfortable and the owners thought of it all! Renting the golf cart is a must do and provided comfortable transportation to the beach with chairs and bags. The location was good and we felt very safe. Cape Charles is a lovely town with gracious people, delicious food and very relaxing. We would love to rent again.

Perfect beach home
We had an awesome stay! Rental was very clean and very well stocked. The location was great and only a short walk to the beach. We opted for the golf cart rental which made getting to the beach and around town fun and easy. The doggies loved the fenced back yard! We really canā€™t find anything negative about our stay, it was perfect and we would definitely stay here again. Thank you very much for sharing your home with our family!!

Another Great Stay
This was our third trip to Cape Charles and second time staying at Cape Escape. Everything was absolutely great in the house and exactly as described in the listing. Everything was provided - plenty of linens, towels, paper products, detergents, etc. We were a group of six (2 parents, 2 grandparents, and 2 kids) and the setup met our needs perfectly. Both stays we've traveled with a pet and Ashley was perfectly accommodating. Check-in was seamless and we rolled right into our vacation. The location is great, just a couple of blocks to the beach. The historic section of Cape Charles is small, so everything is walkable or runnable, though we rented the golf cart too (a must!) in order to enjoy zipping around town. The house is also a block from the park, which made it easy to enjoy the Saturday evening concert even after a day of travel. Cape Charles is a very low-key vacation town. Almost everything shuts down by 8PM and it's pretty quiet throughout the day - exactly what we were seeking in a family vacation. You can relax, run, play in the park, go to the beach, check out the small shops, visit the local museum, or enjoy the restaurants/cafes. We didn't golf or fish, but those were also possible. All in all, Cape Charles and Cape Escape are both great places to visit and stay. Thanks again to Ashley and family for hosting us again!

Very comfortable home for our grown children and little dog!
We have been visiting Cape Charles every summer since 1987, both before and after children and a series of small dogs along the way. This ā€œhome away from homeā€ was very accommodating for our family and just right for our preferences. Communication was very good and I knew that our quality of stay was important and valued by Ashley. We would certainly recommend as well as return in the future if possible.

Great Getaway
This was our first time visiting Cape Charles and we had a wonderful experience! The house was very comfortable and we appreciated that it was dog friendly. In fact, the whole town was very welcoming to Enzo (our dog). He enjoyed hanging out at the brewery, meeting the shop owners, and exploring the beach. The State Park was also a fun field trip! We would love to come back when the weather warms up a bit.
