Beautiful sunsets from the balcony. Close to town, but away from all of the traffic in Cape Charles. A golf cart was available to ride into town.

The unit was on the harbor which is a working facility. We enjoyed sitting in the balcony and looking at the boats and water. It was just a little further walk to the beach than the listing said but was still close enough. The weather was such that we didn’t sit on the beach so our walk was unencumbered by chairs and beach supplies.

Birthday

We took my daughter and her friend for her 19th Birthday. Place was immaculate and the added bonus of not having to rent a golf cart elsewhere was great. Would definitely recommend and I will be renting this in the future if it’s still available. Just wish it wasn’t 110 degrees outside :)

GREAT VACATION

Great place to stay and enjoy the sunsets. We were close enough to downtown Cape Charles to enjoy what the town has to offer but a quieter spot for vacation. Coming back next year.

Fantastic place to stay in Cape Charles

My friend and I had a wonderful stay at the Crows Nest! We loved the layout and decor of the apartment and especially enjoyed the deck with a wonderful view. It was very convenient to rent the golf cart directly from the owner. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at Crows Nest and I plan to return.

This is a unique place to stay. The view of the marina, and the incredible sunsets are worth it alone. The property is so clean and comfortable, especially the beds. The location is great - quiet, and close to town and beach. Can't wait to return!

We enjoyed being outside of town, but that it was still in walking distance from the Crows Nest and the views of the sunsets were beautiful. We booked the property for another stay a few days after returning home.

Crow’s Nest

We loved our weekend getaway to Cape Charles. Our stay at the Crow’s Nest was fun and in a perfect location. We loved having the golf cart right there for our stay. It was so nicely decorated and clean. It would have been nice to have a tv in the living area or one upstairs. Thanks again for the accommodations and hope to come back for another visit in the future!
