The house was great for our weekend stay. The king size bed was very comfortable and the bathroom was nice. Even in November we spent a lot of time on the porch and were able to eat on the picnic table in the back yard. The hosts were great and we would surely come back again.

Beautiful location

We really loved this home. It was close to the beach and we were able to walk over to watch the sunset each night. The town is quaint and the home is located in a nice neighborhood. Will definitely book again.

Wonderful stay at Cape Charles

We loved this charming house which is close to everything - the beach, shopping, restaurants, and a lovely park. No golf cart needed! The beds were comfortable and the house was well appointed with everything we needed. We hope to stay there again!

Off season getaway

Beautiful property. Very clean and well organized. Great location with a cute backyard. We appreciated the few steps to leave the property as we could enjoy the last morning without worrying about linens and towels to be washed.

My happy place

We had a wonderful stay at SolMate. It was such a great home and allowed dogs over 50lbs! Not many places allow for larger dogs so finding this location was amazing and the park only a block away is a bonus!

Great stay!

We had a wonderful time staying in this house. Two families with young children, total of 8 of us, plenty of space for everyone. Loved the short walk to the beach and pretty much everything in town. House is very clean and well furnished and stocked. The only thing we didn’t realize is that it is part of the duplex and you do share a backyard with the neighbors, but it wasn’t a big deal for us.Definitely recommend!
