Cape Charles
is a charming small community, established in 1884 by northern railroad
executives. Beautiful historic homes, large shade trees and crape myrtles line the streets as you stroll among the friendly residents. The town is pedestrian friendly; almost everything is accessible by foot, bicycle or golf cart. Most of the houses date from 1884 to 1920 and are of classic architectural styles, many of which have large wrap-around porches. The town's Central Park has walkways, a playground and a pavilion for concerts. The beach is very child friendly with gentle waves of the bay waters. You can enjoy swimming, sun-bathing, and combing the beach for seashells and sea glass. Due to the deep channel of the Chesapeake Bay, there are sailboats and large yachts in abundance. For the golf enthusiast, there are Palmer and Nicklaus Signature Golf Courses adjacent to the town. There are also many state parks; museums; historic sites; a fishing pier; two marinas; a public boat ramp; fishing and eco-tour boat charters; jet-ski, golf cart and kayak rentals; fine seafood restaurants; gourmet shops and wineries nearby. As evidenced by the many upscale art and craft shops, the town has a thriving art, music, literary and theater community.

Karen and Rick Lowe live in Middleburg, VA, in the foothills of the Blue Ridge Mountains on their farm, Lowelands Farm, in the middle of Virginia Hunt Country. Having fallen in love with the Eastern Shore after spending family vacations there for nearly 40 years, they first bought Eagle's View, their waterfront vacation home on Chincoteague Island with views of the lighthouse and the refuge. Their love of horses gave them a keen interest in the wild ponies on Assateague Island, and they have also enjoyed kayaking in the surrounding waters. The history of the Eastern Shore drew them to make many excursions using the book "Off Route 13" and landed them in Cape Charles, where the beauty of the town founded by railroad executives in the 1880s appealed to them due in part to the classical architecture and fantastic sunsets across the Bay. Having lived in the large, bustling cities of Chicago, Paris and Washington, DC, as well as the solitary, pastoral setting of their farm, the Lowes were enchanted by the friendly spirit of this small town and realized that they wanted to experience this "Mayberry-like" step into the past. The dream of owning an old house with beautiful gardens and the welcoming feeling of this small town led them to the purchase of Chesapeake Dream. Having a guest house on their farm, available for short-term rental, has opened up a whole new chapter in their lives~~~they not only entertain family and friends, but have met guests from all over the world, who also get to enjoy the year around beauty of their farm.
