Top hotels in Townsend

Shore Stay Suites
"Was only one of two available options that evening. Okay for somewhere to sleep; wouldn’t want to “vacation” there as there were no amenities and there seemed to be some long term tenants staying there as well. Room was clean."

The Baywood Bed & Breakfast
"The location and the views were phenomenal. The owner was very engaged and helpful. We had some nice conversations. The property needs some maintenance and attention. The breakfast was average"

Cape Charles Tiny Livin
"This was a delightful stay! You can tell the owners put a lot of love into their cottages. And their fire pit is amazing! We spent six weeks driving up the coast from Savannah to the Jersey Shore, and our stop in Cape Charles was made truly memorable by the charm of the Tiny Living experience."

Cape Charles Milestone Lodge
"Just don't.....trust me. We walked into our room, looked around, and left. Smell was horrible, sheets were disgusting, bathroom was tiny and outdated. Definitely not worth the price....it's a $39.99 hotel at best."
