2 Bedroom House in Cape Charles

Mockhorn Bay Retreat is an exclusive 100-acre seaside property with modern home and complete privacy, 180° Atlantic views of some of the most scenic Barrier Islands across Mockhorn Bay. Stunning sunrises and often romantic, memorable full-moon views awe our guests! Read our stellar reviews including comments of the amenities and cleanliness of the home. You have to wander to see another house. The perfect compliment to busy Cape Charles.
This well-appointed home has many large windows to showcase the water views, a pond frequented by migratory and our many species of mid-Atlantic coastal birds year-round. Primary bedroom with water view, walk-in closet, and private full bath; second bedroom with large closet and adjacent full bath, plus an additional den that is sleeper-friendly. Both showers have ADA accessories.
Spacious open dining and living area, large open kitchen well-stocked with many ammenities and small appliances (see reviews), and laundry/pantry/mud room off of main foyer.
Screened porch with unobstructed views of the water, old-growth trees and pasture/yard; dining table with six chairs plus two comfortable rocking chairs for relaxing, reading, birdwatching, etc. Small dock on pond with four Adirondack chairs near the pond for bird-watching and water viewing. Magnificant star gazing most nights.
Ideally located in a private, tranquil location where our guests often prefer to relax and enjoy the abundant wildlife, nature and solitude. When available, there are sea kayaks (WOL required) with a dock and ramp for launching and walking trails onsite for our guests to enjoy. Endless photography options. There are many nearby recreational choices, most about 15 minutes away: 4 convenient boat ramps (2 access the Chesapeake Bay and 2 access the Atlantic seaside). There is plenty of room to park your boat trailer onsite and take advantage of fresh-water rinse hose; close-by are marinas, fueling options, bait shops, fishing charters, and seafood retailers if your fishing luck is running low!
A short drive away is the quaint Town of Cape Charles - with its long public beach and public fishing pier; restaurants and watering holes; art galleries and shops hosting works of our many accomplished local artists; boutiques, antique and gift shops, etc. Kiptopeke State Park with it's boat ramps, parking and popular beach is also a short drive away (State park fees apply).
There are numerous nearby services including a full-service grocery (which is about 10 minutes from the property). For nature enthusiasts, the Eastern Shore National Wildlife Refuge and the Fisherman Island National Wildlife Refuge are minutes away. Day-trippers' choices include Chincoteague Island, NASA Wallops Flight Facility [you may get lucky during your stay and witness a launch!!], or catch the seasonal Ferry to unique, historic Tangier Island. The possibilities for fun are endless!!!
The location is excellent - around 10 minutes from the Chesapeake Bay Bridge Tunnel (designated “One of Seven Engineering Wonders of the Modern World” ), plus easy access to Virginia Beach and the Hampton Roads area.
Our Lower Eastern Shore area is a safe and family-friendly place - where people smile and say 'Hello' when passing on the sidewalk or grocery aisle and are happy to help you with directions, suggestions, changing a tire, etc.
I have a high standard for cleanliness and sanitation in Mockhorn Bay Retreat to protect our guests. Unlike the standard same-day turnover, I block off an extra day between rentals to allow for thoroughly cleaning and disinfecting the house.

Summary: We were looking for some time to ourselves to enjoy nature and a getaway from city life within a relatively short drive from Richmond. We definitely found it here. The house is private but conveniently close to amenities like a grocery store and restaurants in Cape Charles. We loved the house. It is beautiful and comfortable with a nice view of Mockhorn Bay. And the hostess, next door, is very welcoming and respectful of privacy, and she makes a great key lime pie as well.

Summary: Gigi was amazing. The place is absolutely gorgeous. We took our boat and went fishing in the bay most days, but were blessed with the most beautiful sunrises and moon rises for the entire week. Morning coffee on the screened in porch and beautiful walks out towards Mockhorn Bay in the evenings. I highly recommend!

Summary: We spent a wonderful week at Mockhorn Bay Retreat. The house and grounds were beautiful. The home had everything you could need for a visit. We did have a few days of intense rain and winds, but made the most of it. We enjoyed walking the property, kayaking, eating meals on the sun porch, and touring the ESVA. This was the perfect home base for our family!
