Coastal Community of Bay Creek Boasts Beautiful Homes, a Private Beach, Two Excellent Golf Courses, a Marina and More
Cape Charles sits on the western edge of the peninsula that is Virginia's Eastern Shore and is the setting for Bay Creek, a beautiful, gated, master-planned community known for its two outstanding golf courses. Beautiful single family homes, town homes and condominiums sit atop 1,700+ lush acres traversed by waterways and meandering nature trails. Pretty views are everywhere.
Bay Creek has 10 villages, each with its own characteristics. Many properties sit next to a golf course fairway or along the water. Coastal Cape Cod architecture, with plenty of natural light and white and gray color combinations, is common.
Prices start in the low-$500,000s. The HOA fee ranges from about $162 to $563 per month, depending on home style. Please verify these prices with a Realtor.
The golf courses were designed by Jack Nicklaus and Arnold Palmer and hug the coastal landscape, offering gorgeous views of the Chesapeake Bay. Locals also enjoy a marina, a state-of-the-art tennis center, a beach club and a private beach.
The Coach House is the community restaurant. Events include concerts, festivals and art shows.
Virginia's Eastern Shore has the Atlantic Ocean on one side and the Chesapeake Bay sits on the other. Idyllic Cape Charles sits on the Bay side and feels like a step back in time, with restored Victorian homes, a deep-water harbor and two clean beaches, one with a long pier. The downtown has cute shops and eateries, and the nearby 29-acre Cape Charles Natural Area Preserve boasts a long boardwalk.
Riverside Cape Charles Medical Center is the local hospital.
Summers bring temperatures in the 80s and low 90s, and winter temperatures are in the 20s, 30s and 40s. On average, the area receives 40 inches of rain each year.

Virginia:
Jamestown was founded in 1607, and both the American Revolution and the Civil War surrender sites are in Virginia. The state, nicknamed the Mother of Presidents, has given birth to eight U.S. presidents and has the longest continually operating state legislature in the Western hemisphere.
Points of interest include the home of George Washington, Thomas Jefferson, Richmond, and Williamsburg, a restored Colonial town. Booker T. Washington's birthplace, Arlington House, and the Blue Ridge National Parkway are worth a visit, too.
Why are HOA Fees So High in 55+ Communities?
HOA fees (homeowner association fees) come in a wide range, and each 55+ community has a different set of guidelines for determining its HOA fees. Generally, the more amenities, the higher the fee. And often older communities have higher fees because as a development ages, maintenance costs increase. Most communities have bylaws stating how high HOA fees can be raised each year. When looking for a 55+ community, always ask about the fees. How much are they? What do they cover? How many increases have there been in the last 10 years? If the developer or sales staff will not tell you, visit on a Saturday when people are out and about and ask a resident or two about the HOA fees.
