Welcome to the Cape Charles Milestone Lodge
Rittenhouse Motor Lodge was built in 1952 and has continuously offered travelers exceptionally clean overnight accommodations ever since.
This property is a milestone for the business (having never changed owners before), a milestone for the new owner (fulfilling a lifelong dream of becoming an entrepreneur), and a milestone for travelers navigating up and down the Eastern Shore of Virginia.
Cape Charles Milestone Lodge features all single-level rooms (motel-style) and convenient parking. Our eco-friendly amenities, cozy rooms, and comfortable beds provide guests with a safe, quiet, relaxing stay away from home.
