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.

Loved Old Bay Getaway!
We’ve been visiting Cape Charles several years now and Old Bay Getaway has been our favorite! It was clean and comfortable and the kitchen was well stocked. It’s very close to the park and easy walk or golf cart ride to the beach, shops and restaurants. It was such a nice feeling of “home” for our family!

Great Rental
I was very impressed with the house (Old Bay Getaway). It was in great condition and met our needs perfectly. It was clean and recently updated. The upstairs Entertainment room was great. The house was bigger than it looked in the pictures. 👍👍👍
