Family Friendly 3 Blocks to Beach with Great Amenities

New for ‘23 🚨DISHWASHER🚨!! We overhauled the home in 2018 to set it up for guests to enjoy the Cape Charles and VA Eastern Shore. The home is fully equipped with all the comforts of home including a well stocked kitchen for all cooking, new mattresses and bedding for restful nights sleep, smart TVs to access all your streaming content needs. We specifically designed the home for family vacations to have two master bedrooms-both fitted with king beds. Great for 2 families vacationing together or extended family gatherings.
For the beach goers and water enthusiasts our home is complete with a stand up paddle board (SUP), two children's kayaks along with beach toys, beach chairs, umbrellas, and both a beach wagon to help transport everything to the beach. We invite you to stay in our home and enjoy all that Cape Charles has to offer.

Cape Chuck ☀️🌊⛱️

Our first visit to Cape Charles was delightful. The small beach town was quiet and filled with the friendliest people. The property was bright and open with comfortable beds. Quick walk to the beach and Main Street.

The house was perfectly located within walking distance from both the main street, beach and local park. House was well appointed with kitchen, toys, etc. - exactly as described. Super host was in contact immediately when we need a toilet seat fixed. Would stay there again in a heartbeat!

Great house!

This was our sixth stay in Cape Charles, we’ve hopped all over town during those stays and this was my favorite house! Clean, comfortable and nicely decorated, which I find to be an added comfort. Close enough to walk to the beach. House is nicely stocked and the paddle board was a fun bonus!

Cape Charles Awww Shucks

This location is great close to the beach, restaurants, parks and activities.I was not pleased with the cleanliness or condition of the furniture in the living area (stained and worn upholstery).The kitchen was not well equipped and the larger pans and appliances were in poor condition (crockpot had dried food stains). No ice maker in the freezer or ice trays to make our own.TV was only available if one has his own streaming plan, not even local channels.There were no wash clothes, but plenty of towels and beach towels.The spigot on the side of the home with a garden hose attached was not functional so nowhere to rinse feet after the beach.This rental has great potential, but really needs some TLC. Would not book again.

Long weekend getaway with friends

We had a great stay! The house was clean, comfortable, and really well situated. Plenty of room for our family of three and our friend’s family of five to relax, sleep, and play games together. Easy walk to beach, shops/restaurants, and the town’s park with tennis/pickleball courts and soccer field/nets. Great communication with host. Would highly recommend!

Another wonderful stay at Awe Shucks

This is our second year at the house and we had another wonderful stay. Jennifer is quick to reply to questions and even helped us out of a bind when we left an important package behind. The house is an easy walk or cart-ride to the beach and is well-stocked. The first-floor shower/laundry room is perfect for cleaning up after the beach. We'd love to stay a third time!
