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.

Awesome Stay
We love this spot and love the location. It was nice to have the golf cart because we did not have that last year. However, we still couldn't get the stove working (again), the lock box to get the golf cart out was the incorrect code and the tire on the golf cart had a leak. Luckily, we got an air compressor, so we were able to fill it up a couple of times and still use the cart.

My husband and I have four children. Two have special needs and we don’t get much of an opportunity to rest and enjoy each other’s company. Keep Charles is a town that we love. We have dear friends that live in Virginia Beach and they watch our children for two days why we rest and reconnect in Cape Charles. This is our second Staying at this crows nest and we absolutely love it. This is our most favorite place and we look forward to coming back. The sunset and the view is amazing.

This is a unique place to stay. The view of the marina, and the incredible sunsets are worth it alone. The property is so clean and comfortable, especially the beds. The location is great - quiet, and close to town and beach. Can't wait to return!

Amazing get away
My wife and I, along with another couple rent this place every year. It never disappoints! From our first sunset with drinks on the deck, to dinner at Hook at Harvey, the fishing, and the days spent in town at the many fine establishments. Cape Charles is a beautiful town with much to offer and the Crows Nest is the best place to take advantage of this amazing little town.

Great place… great views! I had a wonderful time with my family. We could hear the bar below, which wasn’t an issue for us at all, it stopped promptly at 11, but we are all adults. I’m not sure if I’d want to stay with young children. Overall great experience and I’d stay again.

Absolutely perfect
This was our first stay in Cape Charles and it was so delightful. We felt like we had the best place in town! It is a 2 minute drive from the main part of town but we didn’t mind that at all. Many people rent golf carts and drive all over town with them, but we were fine driving our car. The house is the only property in the marina so it has a secluded, peaceful feel. The views from the deck are lovely. The house itself is clean, updated, and well decorated. We just loved it! I read other comments about noise from the restaurant and just wanted to add that it didn’t bother us at all.

Great place to stay in Cape Charles
Stayed at the Crow's Nest for a girl's weekend with my childhood bestie. It's clean, cute, and perfectly located. Do yourself a favor and rent the golf cart as well. Less than a 5 minute drive to every attraction and you'll never have an issue parking. The owners are super nice and very responsive. Get reservations and eat at Ambrosia. You will thank me. I'm already looking at dates to book again.
