Our stay
I loved the property and location except for the music from the restaurant that didn’t stop until after 11:00. The second floor room had hot air coming from the back of what looked like an in room air conditioner. I think the air was supposed to go outside through a vent…. So hot one of us had to sleep on sofa…. Also might co spider taking out small white bar and putting in a round table for eating and cards…sunsets were beautiful and we would co spider coming back. Oh also the golf cart might need a new battery couldn’t go very far.

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!

A most beautiful setting, with the lights reflecting off the harbor at night, and pelicans perched on the docks below by day. Customer assistance in providing for optimal stay was excellent. I would stay here again.

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.

Perfect weekend at the Cape!
My family and I had an amazing weekend at Cape Charles! The crows Nest was perfectly nestled in the marina and allowed us to see a beautiful sunset every night and fishing in the marina at leisure. We golf carted around the island and ate amazing food and enjoyed local shopping. We rented a boat for a few hours, tanned on the beach, and found treasures on the sand during our walks. It couldn’t have been more perfect. Thank you for allowing us to rent this perfect place to enjoy an amazing town!

Best at the Nest
We loved this little gem. First time in the area and we got to see a lot. My only recommendation for the owner is to have some fans available for both inside and out.

The title of the listing said it perfectly. Sunsets here were amazing and we had our own private viewing on the deck. We love Cape Charles, have been several times. This time was unique, being at the marina, still very close to town, above a great restaurant with many other dining options close by

Great views
Overall had had good time and great view but there were a couple things.. The deck tends to get super hot mid day..hard to sit out there after 10 am until the evening. Downstairs restaurant has music until 11 and can be tough to sleep. Upstairs HVAC is a portable unit and tends to be loud and noisy Nothing major but did have a good stay

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.

2nd time staying here
I think I said this in my last review but if you like boats this is the place for you. We love sitting outside watching the boats come and go. Walking to the Shanty is quick and easy. We would much rather stay here than right in the town. The property was clean enough but I feel like it really can use a deep cleaning. There’s lots of lovely decorations that seem to catch a lot of dust and hair. We plan on coming back in a few years and staying here again. Thanks for the great family memories.
