About this property

The Little Retreat Unit B - Walk to Shops & Beach

  • Escape to The Little Retreat – Unit B, a bright second-floor retreat in Cape Charles’ Historic District. Sip your morning coffee on the private screened porch, then stroll to Central Park, local shops, restaurants, and the beach. Perfect for couples, friends, or families, Unit B sleeps 4 with 2 bedrooms, each featuring a private en-suite bathroom. Need more space? See our host profile for the Entire Duplex listing.

    The Space
    Settle into the relaxed pace of Cape Charles from your own bright, comfortable second-floor retreat in the Historic District. This bright second-floor retreat puts you close to the best parts of town while giving you a comfortable place to relax between adventures.

    Start the morning with coffee on your private screened porch, wander into town for breakfast or shopping, spend the afternoon by the Chesapeake Bay, and return home to unwind before heading back out for dinner. Central Park, local shops and restaurants, and the public beach are all within walking distance.

    Inside, you’ll find:
    • 2 bedrooms, each with a private en-suite bathroom
    • Fully equipped kitchen with Keurig and starter K-Cups
    • Comfortable living room
    • Private screened porch
    • Blackout shades and a sound machine in each bedroom
    • High chair plus toddler plates, cups, and utensils
    • 4 beach chairs, 4 beach towels, and 1 standard beach umbrella
    • Shared backyard patio
    • Starter supply of household essentials
    • Accommodations for up to 4 guests

    The two-bedroom, two-bathroom layout gives couples, friends, and families plenty of space to settle in comfortably while enjoying the convenience of a full kitchen and inviting living area.

    After a day exploring Cape Charles, relax in the living room or settle onto the screened porch. The full kitchen makes it easy to enjoy meals at home, and a Keurig with a starter selection of K-Cups helps make mornings a little easier.

    Families are welcome. A high chair and toddler plates, cups, and utensils are provided, and a portable baby monitor is available upon request. Because we have one baby monitor shared between the two units, please request it in advance so we can confirm availability. While the home is not fully childproofed, these thoughtful extras can make traveling with little ones a little easier.

    Guest access
    Guests have private access to the entire upstairs unit via a separate exterior staircase and self check-in with keypad.

    You'll also enjoy:
    • Private screened porch
    • Shared backyard patio

    Free street parking is available.

    Please note that Unit B is located on the second floor and requires use of the exterior staircase to enter the unit.

    Other things to note
    The Little Retreat is conveniently located in Cape Charles' Historic District, just two blocks from Central Park and approximately six blocks from the public beach. Shops and local restaurants are also within walking distance. Many guests enjoy exploring town on foot, while a golf cart is a fun and convenient way to get around, especially when bringing gear to the beach. Golf carts are available to rent locally and are popular during peak season, so we recommend reserving one early if you'd like to have one during your stay. An outdoor extension cord is available for convenient golf cart charging at the property, subject to availability. If used, please return the cord to its designated location when finished and be sure it is not returned with your rental golf cart.

    Unit B is the upstairs accommodation of a two-story duplex. As with many older homes, sound may travel between floors. Each unit has its own private entrance and living space, and we ask guests to be mindful that guests may be staying directly below in Unit A. Please keep voices, TV, and other activity at a considerate level, particularly during quiet hours from 10:00 PM to 8:00 AM.

    A few additional things to know:
    • No pets, please.
    • The backyard patio is shared with guests staying in Unit A.
    • A starter supply of household essentials is provided for your arrival.
    • Families are welcome. The home is not fully childproofed, and children should be supervised at all times.
    • Smart water leak sensors are located beneath the kitchen and bathroom sinks, along with temperature monitoring devices. These systems help us identify unexpected maintenance issues and do not record audio or video.
