Southern Breezes Nor'wester - close to beach, park, and shops; pet-friendly

Welcome to Southern Breezes located 1 block from the beach in the historic Town of Cape Charles on the Chesapeake Bay. Your family will be close to everything when you stay at this centrally-located vacation escape. Southern Breezes is a block from the beach, a block from the park, and two blocks from the shops on Mason. Location, location, location for this pet-friendly getaway. Nor'wester is Unit A, on the right facing the house.

This lovely brick triplex, built in 1923 is an example of American Foursquare or Prairie Box style architecture. Nor'wester is a 3 bedroom, 1.5+ bathroom getaway modestly furnished with formal dining room, large kitchen, open front porch, small backyard garden with hot water outdoor shower. Sleeps 5 comfortably with a bunkbed in the back bedroom for kids. This pet-friendly home is a short bike ride, golf cart jaunt, or walk, minutes to fabulous shops, galleries and restaurants the town has to offer.

Cape Charles, a railroad town founded in 1884, was surveyed by the Virginia Department of Historic resources in 1989 and added to the National Register of Historic Places in 1991. The town has numerous examples of building styles including Victorian, Colonial Revival, Craftsman and Neoclassical dating between 1880s and 1940s. Bay Creek, a private, upscale residential development bordering on the north and south ends of town offers two signature golf courses, Jack Nicolas and Arnold Palmer. In the last several years the real estate market has gone off the charts!

Virginia Living’s 2020 Best of Virginia reader’s poll recognized 27 town businesses and attractions in 29 categories as being among the best in Virginia. Revitalization efforts thru a recent initiative, Cape Charles Main Street, have indeed put the town on the map as a tourist destination!

Nor'wester goes by the week in-season with the weeks running Saturday to Saturday. Please reach out if you required ifferent days. Unit B Nor'easter is also available.

We require a signed rental agreement.

Cape Charles is a beautiful city with genuinely friendly people, and the music event we attended was enjoyable. Unfortunately, the property itself was disappointing and did not meet basic expectations. The home is clearly dated, curb appeal is neglected, and the overall cleanliness upon arrival was unacceptable. In addition, the televisions did not function properly, children yelling late at night and early morning, and the shower water pressure was extremely poor, which made the stay uncomfortable.We do want to acknowledge Jennifer, the agent representing the homeowner, who was professional, responsive, and clearly doing her best throughout the process. However, she was ultimately limited in her ability to resolve the underlying issues with the property itself.

Cape Charles

The house had everything we needed. The owners seemed to care about our comfort. It was one of the best vacations I have had. The quietness and quality of that town is hard to find these days. It soothes the soul. My grandchildren said it was their favorite vacation.

Inexpensive, comfortable, heart of Cape Charles

This is a perfect lower cost option for the area. Perfectly fine in every way, and a great price. Great location, optimum porch sitting situation. Hope to come again!
