About this property

Your Private Beach Awaits! Don’t Wait to Book!

Plan your beach vacation now! BayWatch features a private beach, spectacular water views and fresh, casual well-appointed and up-to-date accommodations. Just 10 minutes from Cape Charles, the thriving town that is getting so much attention from Coastal Living and Southern Living magazines. You won't believe how much there is to do in this quiet part of the Eastern Shore. Plus it's 20 min from Kiptopeke State Park, 45 min from Virginia Beach, and 60 minute from Chincoteague.

This recently-built three level home has unparalleled views of the Chesapeake Bay. Windows stretch across the bay-side of the house so the view can be enjoyed in the living areas, master bedroom and second bedroom. There isn't a bad seat in the house to watch the tide, weather and boats go by! We have made an effort to provide every amenity in a well-appointed, comfortable setting. And you can't beat being only steps from a white sand beach!

1st Floor/Main level: 1 queen bedroom, full bath, eat-in kitchen, TV room, great room sitting area.
2nd Floor: Master bedroom with king, bedroom with 2 twins, full bath.
Ground Floor: bunk beds, half bath, outside shower, playroom/game area, laundry.

Towels and bed linens are provided at the beginning of your stay. Maximum of 6 guests.

Bring toys! You can kayak, sail, fish, ride bikes, waterski, jet ski, tube, or visit the sandbar that stretches out a few hundred yards from the shore. Relax on the private stretch of beach where you won't see a soul.

If you have a boat, a community ramp in a tidal inlet is only 100 yards away. Or you can use the free, full-service, public boat ramp/marina in Cape Charles. Then drive your boat around to Smith Beach and tie up on one of our pilings. Lots to do or just relax!

There are many spots to enjoy the views, breezes and sunshine. Take a cooler and chair down to the beach and relax on the sand with the bay lapping at your feet. At sunset, sit on our aloha deck overhanging the bluff to take in the gorgeous colors as the sun retreats for another day. You can also lounge on the house-side deck while you put some shrimp on the grill from one of the local seafood markets. If you need a break from the sun or want to make the most of the cooling breezes, perch on the porch--morning, noon or night it's a lovely spot.

Beyond the beach, there are dunes to hike nearby, antiquing, kayak excursions, charter boats, fishing and more. There are also a number of dining options within 15 minutes: Mexican, Southern cooking, seafood, Pub fare, pizza, coffee house/cafe, Chinese carry-out and diners. You can also get seafood from the local seafood market, or prime meats from the local butcher and fix yourself a gourmet meal while you enjoy the views. For your convenience there is a Food Lion, Dollar Store, ABC liquor store and pharmacy nearby.

Wonderful Memories
We had an amazing spring break vacation in baywatch. The sunsets were amazing every single day. The stars were abundant. The preteen was even happy most days. The kids best memories were kayaking to the sandbar and golf carting in Cape Charles.

Great Family Place
We really liked the private beach for the little kids. Taking the kayaks out to the sandbar in the morning was good for exploring. Would recommend to anyone with children.

Wonderful and Relaxing
We had such a lovely time visiting Smith beach. The house was clean and in a wonderful spot. We enjoyed all that the bay had to offer as well as exploring a new to us area and the cute little town of Cape Charles. The sand bar made this a perfect place for relaxation, finding shells and exploration. This place is a gem.

About the host

Hosted by Jennifer Lynch

Host profile image
After years of renting cottages on Smith Beach, we built his property in 2010. Smith Beach and the Eastern Shore is a very special place I have been coming to all my life. My husband and I began bringing our children when they were babies to splash in the warm shallow water and play in the sand. They have grown up coming every summer, bringing friends, enjoying the water, sun and local activities. It is now a family tradition and we hope that you will come and discover what we love so much about Smith Beach and the Eastern Shore of Virginia!

Why they chose this property

Slightly elevated on a bluff, it has the best views on Smith Beach and catches the breeze off the water. With woods to the south and only two neighbors visible, it is extremely private, especially on the beach. Some days you won't see anyone!

What makes this property unique

There aren't many places where your have your own 100 feet of private beach that is safe and quiet for children of all ages, where you have a clean, comfortably furnished and affordable home, and where you face west and enjoy stunning sunsets almost nightly. This combined with the many local activities, seafood and charm of the Easter Shore, makes for a one-of-a-kind retreat any time of year.
