Hotels on Virginia's Eastern Shore

Virginia's Eastern Shore is a relatively narrow peninsula of land. Route 13 runs right down the middle of the Shore and that's where you'll find most of the hotels. Towns off the highway that have hotels are Chicoteague, Onancock, and Cape Charles. The hotel options in Onancock and Cape Charles are small boutique hotels - a nice departure from the chain hotel experience and a good way to enjoy small-town atmosphere.
