Loved everything about the house and the rental process.

The home was beautiful and accommodated our large group just perfectly. There was lots to look at, the furniture and beds were comfortable, and it was just the right walking distance to downtown and the beach! I would definitely rent again!

This was our second stay and it was wonderful! We had four families which included 5 kids between ages 2-7. Location was great, amenities were great! We will go again.

On the Bay provided our family a wonderful bonding experience. The views from the upper deck were sensational. Anne and Mark are great hosts and very responsive to our needs. We hope to return again next year.

It is always a pleasure to return to this beautiful and comfortable home. The location is perfect and the home is well equipped for sleeping, cooking, relaxing, and hitting the beach.

This was our fifth summer visiting Cape Charles and second time staying in this house. And we have rented it again for next year.

I am madly in love with this beautiful house. I wish I could pick it up and take it home with me, of course then it wouldn’t have the view! We especially enjoyed sunsets from the second floor balcony and reading in the daybed swing on the downstairs porch. The beds were super comfy, and I only wish we had more time to enjoy all of the spaces. So many cozy nooks! I hope to return. Thank you for opening up this wonderful home to visitors.

This is a lovely historic home in Cape Charles, and we have rented yearly for the past few years and have always had a wonderful experience. We had a minor issue with the home Internet this year, and the owners were very responsive and helping to address it as best they could. We look forward to coming back next year again!

This is our second time staying here and we have already booked again for next year! This is a great home for multiple families with kids, room for everyone! Location is amazing- walk to the beach and short golf cart ride to shops and restaurants. Definitely recommend!

Thank you to Anne and Mark! I visited with eight other friends and family and we all had a perfect week. The house was beautiful, roomy and we had all the necessities we needed. The home and location couldn't have been better with the beautiful sunsets from the 2nd floor balcony to morning coffees on the front porch, beach access directly across the street and main street just a few blocks walk. We had an evening bonfire, used the kayaks and made use of the plentiful beach chairs and towels. It was very nice not to have to bring those with us. I very much appreciated how quickly Anne replied to all of my emails and addressed my concerns and questions that I had ahead of time. I would highly recommend this home if you are wanting a very enjoyable stay in Cape Charles!

The location was so convenient to downtown and to the beach. We enjoyed daily walks and all of the spaces the home provided for our family to gather. The views and amenities can’t be beat. The beds are comfortable, and the water pressure is great. There is nothing I’d change about our experience there, and we all agreed we’d be happy to stay there again.

We had a fabulous time at the property! It is beautiful with great bay views and luxury updates. The owners are super responsive and the house is well equipped for a large family. We will definitely come again!

After years of Outer Banks, NC family vacations, we decided to try something new in Cape Charles and it was absolutely perfect. Anne’s home was beautifully furnished with very comfortable beds and plenty of room for our family. The house is fully stocked with everything you could possibly need. We loved spending time on the front porch and the fenced in yard was great for the kids to play. The location right across the street from the beach was so convenient and also walking distance to shops and restaurants. Anne is a wonderful host and very responsive. I couldn’t ask for a better VRBO experience, just wish we had booked a longer stay! Highly recommend!

We loved everything about the stay! Plenty of room for extended family. Great views of the water from the bedrooms and balconies. All the extras were provided, from beach chairs to cookery to linens. Town of Cape Charles was great, clean and very welcoming. We can't wait to return.

We stayed at this amazing house for our son’s wedding and were absolutely delighted with the house and service. Anne was a fabulous host and was there to answer all of our questions and was extremely acomidating. We will be back every year!

This home is elegant and comfortable. It’s great for a large group of friends and for family. The short walk to the beach makes it perfect for kids. The hosts are responsive and considerate.

A lot of history in this old house. The views from the balcony were incredible. A nice fenced in backyard. A great location with the beach right across the street. Large rooms, each bedroom with a bathroom. Door locks need attention. Kitchen was a bit small. That being said, anyone who likes old houses with a history should enjoy this house.

Our whole family, ranging in ages 1-70, love this house and its location. Favorite spots are the 2 front porches!

My sister and I wanted to plan a short getaway as a gift for our parents and our blended family (seniors, adults, teens, 1 kid and 1 baby). We needed the house to be big with spaces for people to hang out and places for people to be alone if needed (and my husband needed an office), and we needed to be in walking distance of the water (toddler/baby) and finding this house was the perfect solution. The house is gracious. It manages to be elegant and stately but also comfortable and easy. The bedrooms are charming and good sizes. I was curious what the bathrooms would be like because bathroom photos are conspicuously absent from the VRBO listing, and the bathrooms are all more than adequate. It's an older home and there are some quirks for sure, but nothing that caused us any issues. One odd little note is that in the Sunset Suite, where I stayed with my husband, there is no hanging space for dresses. There is a pretty chest of drawers and an armoire, but the armoire doesn't allow you to hang dresses - only shirts and shorts. I brought mostly dresses so I had to figure out a makeshift solution for that. The decks and porches and grounds are impeccable and utterly delightful. We did use the grill and it worked great. It's not an open plan house, so understand that the kitchen is fairly separated from the dining area and living area, so we had quite the crush of people in the kitchen when we were making family dinners but it was fun. The kitchen is VERY well stocked - everything from ziplock baggies to spices to condiments in the fridge to coffee makers to an instant pot. My husband got a huge kick out of using one of the kayaks that the house provides. The beach area of Cape Charles is so great for families of all ages because of how shallow and calm the water is. We had to call an ambulance for the baby on the first night we arrived to the house, and I can also report that the Cape Charles EMTs and first responders are kind and responsive. (It was scary but baby was okay after a short visit to the closest hospital, and we were able to salvage most of our reunion.) I think every single member of my family looked up the house on zillow at some point during the trip to see how much the house is worth and if we could afford to make an offer to the owners (No, we cannot.). The house is honestly magical, Cape Charles is this tiny little gem of a place. We had a magical time, and my family is already plotting when we can come back.
