About Cape Charles
Located near the tip of Virginia’s Eastern Shore, Cape Charles is a small bay town with a big history. One of the first planned communities in the US, Cape Charles served as one of the key southern nodes for the New York, Philadelphia and Norfolk Railroad. Today, the bayside community is one of Virginia’s hidden gems, boasting access to a secluded beach on the Chesapeake, golfing, and a strip of local shops and restaurants. If you find yourself with extra time, we have curated a list of things we highly recommend trying during your stay.

Reach out to Colleen and Kofi for discussion.
