Key Lime Cottage: Your Cape Charles Beachside Retreat
Welcome to Key Lime Cottage, a fully renovated 1926 gem located just blocks from Cape Charles beach, Central Park, and downtown. Your stay includes a complimentary golf cart for breezy exploration! We've lovingly restored this classic four-square home to combine historic charm with modern comfort. Sun-drenched rooms await, featuring a convenient powder room on the main floor and two full bathrooms upstairsâone with a soaking tub.
Gather around a large dining table that seats 12 for family feasts, with an additional kids' table. Relax on sofas in a living room adorned with an eclectic book collection. Step outside to find ample seating on a spacious front porch equipped with ceiling fans for those warm days. The back deck offers a grill and dining setup, along with an outdoor shower for post-beach rinses.
Sleep soundly in one of four inviting bedrooms. Choose from three rooms with queen beds outfitted with premium mattresses, or opt for a 'kidsâ room' featuring a bunk bed and twin trundle, sleeping up to five little ones or two adults. And for outdoor adventure? Two kayaks and three bikes are yours to enjoy.
Key Lime Cottage was fantastic! Close to the beach, the park, and shops. The house was cozy enough for all of us to eat dinner and watch TV together, and big enough for everyone to have their own rooms. The neighborhood is beautiful, and the neighbors were lovely! Cape Charles is beautiful and we will definitely visit again.
Great back yard and nice spacious house. Golf cart didnât charge quite right which made me nervous it would break down but it ended up lasting through our stay.
We enjoyed our stay at Key Lime cottage. The house was really nice with good indoor and outdoor spaces. The kitchen was stocked well for the small amount of cooking we did. Location is fantastic. As a bonus we watched a small family of House Finches who had nested in the front door wreath.
The property was amazing! Super close to the beach, an easy walk to shops and food. The house was wonderful and well stocked for several families to get together and relax. Would definitely stay here again
We visited Cape Charles for a long weekend, and we could not have been happier with our stay at Key Lime Cottage. The home is in a great location - could not be more convenient for walking to the beach and the shops/restaurants. It was beautifully decorated and VERY clean. We wouldnât change a thing. The owners have done a wonderful job in making their home an inviting and stress-free place to stay for a visit to Cape Charles. We plan on returning in the fall, and we canât wait!
Beautiful home. Such a relaxing mini vacation. So close to everything. 2 blocks from the beach.Loved having a golf cart to get around. We will definitely be coming back. The owners are so accommodating.Thanks again Melissa and Adam.
We had a restful cozy long weekend and enjoyed every local restaurant in town. By Sunday afternoon the weather warmed up enough to enjoy the green golf cart and we had everything we needed for a happy stay!
This was our second time staying here. We enjoy the proximity to the beach, the fenced backyard, and the golf cart. We were bummed the golf cart broke down during our stay and were unable to use it our final day. Host was quick with communication. House is stocked with paper products, soap, and cooking supplies. Would definitely stay here again.
The house was well equipped and welcoming. We loved the neighborhood as it was very pretty and less than two blocks from the beach. The owner provided a go cart, bikes, kayaks, and much more. Our family loved it. When we got home our two year old cried saying âI want to go back to the green house.â
This was our fourth time to Cape Charles, but our first time at Key Lime. The house was great. The location was so close to the beach and having the golf cart to get to town was the best. We brought our 3 children with us and the house had so much to entertain them!
From the moment we booked the Key Lime Cottage to the moment we left to head home our experience was outstanding!
The home is beautiful and full of character and in an absolutely optimal location (1 1/2 block from beach, 1/2 block from park, and 3-4 blocks from Mason Ave). All the perks (kayaks, bikes, beach chairs, and other beach accessories), especially the golf cart really made our stay comfortable.
The house was very clean and supplied with more than enough linens and pillows. We especially loved the large dining table that comfortable fit our whole family and how it was open to the living room. The air conditioning was amazing and made the home such a relief from the heat. We were also pleasantly surprised by how many outlets there were especially considering the home was about 100 years old! The front porch was huge with plenty of seating, such a nice way to end each evening.
Adam was great with communication through booking and our stay and even let us know that we could check in early.
Cape Charles is a truly a gem for many reasons and the Key Lime Cottage is amongst those!
From the time we booked Key Lime Cottage until the time we checked out, everything went extremely smooth. The home is welcoming and a quick walk or golf cart ride to the beach, shops, and restaurants. The house is well furnished inside and includes many necessary beach items. Everyone enjoyed the stay at Cape Charles!
Loved the house and location. Property well stocked with all essentials and very clean. Location was perfect for walking anywhere-beach, park for pickleball and town for eating and shopping. Golf cart a great bonus! Thank you for sharing your charming home. Hosts were super helpful too.
Great communication with Adam and he was very accommodating to our needs. It helped us to make a birthday celebration special! Well-appointed home for our holiday weekend getaway and the golf cart is an excellent plus! Our Goldens enjoyed the backyard. Close to the beach and downtown shopping and restaurants. Cape Charles never disapoints!
We truly enjoyed our stay in this lovely home this past weekend while participating in the CBES bike ride. The home is charming and the property is extremely clean. The hosts were very accommodating and responsive. The golf cart is a great way to explore Cape Charles and we can't wait to return and use the kayaks. Many great amenities. I would highly recommend this property.
This was the perfect getaway during a very busy time at home. Key Lime Cottage is perfectly appointed with everything you need. The kitchen is well stocked, as are the bathrooms. The small sunporch is a perfect place to gate you pets, and the entire backyard is fenced. Key Lime Cottage is less than a two block from the beach, which is beautiful with munificent views. We will definitely be returning, hopefully for a longer stay. Our host, Adam was very accommodating and attentive.
We had a fabulous family week at Key Lime Cottage and even a tropical storm going through didnât bother our stay. The house had everything we needed and we could even charge our EV. This was our favorite house we have stayed at in Cape Charles and the hosts were great!
This was our third trip to Cape Charles and hands down the best property we have booked there.
We chose this over other rentals because of: fenced yard, golf cart, proximity to the beach.
Cape Charles is a very walkable town, but if you are lugging beach equipment, kids and/or pets, having a golf cart makes life so much easier.
This house is also well stocked: bath/shower supplies, towels (oh the towels!), soap, detergent, pots/pans, etc. Just bring clothes and food - they have everything else.
The front porch was great for relaxing in between beach time. Outdoor shower (with warm water) was perfect for washing off our sandy feet.
Really no negatives to speak of, except that we couldn't stay longer!
Would 100% stay here again!
Loved everything about our week-long stay at Key Lime Cottage. Lovely, comfortable and clean home accommodated our family of 7.
Wonderful large dining table was perfect for gathering around and for art projects. Streamed movies in the comfy living room. All the beds were very comfortable, and our teens loved the bunk bed room! Enjoyed the front porch and little enclosed back room that opened to the back deckâŠnice little space for reading, resting, playing guitar.
We toured town with the golf cart, kayaked, wandered the beach, relaxed, stayed in and cooked more than going out because we just enjoyed being there!
We also enjoyed horseback riding along Cherrystone Creek, farmland and woods with Esperanza Riding Co, visiting the Kiptopeke Wildlife Refuge, and seeing wild ponies at Assateague Island.
Many thanks to Adam who was so helpful and communicative. We hope to come back sometime!
We currently live full time in Cape Charles, 7 years now, and love it. We have been coming to Cape Charles since our son was 6 months old and he is now 26. We are so excited to host you in our home and welcome you to Cape Charles if this is your first visit of many!
This property is just a block and a half from the beach. You are walking distance to downtown and many restaurants(Kellys, The Shanty, AJ's (the newest in CC), DeadRise Pies, Hook at Harveys, Cravings, Coastal Baking Co., Ambrogia Caffe & more), & shopping. We offer 1 golf cart, 3 bikes, 2 kayaks, many beach chairs, and umbrellas. Everything you need for a wonderful stay in Cape Charles!!!
