Great family vacation

Date of Stay: 07/08/10
Review Submitted: 07/20/10
This home is comfortable and well-kept. An "oops-I-forgot-whatever" closet, plus the full-size washer/dryer were great features. The garage had everything we could've wanted for a fun day at the beach or crabbing. Sande took the time to let us know in advance what would be happening on the island during our visit and really helped make our much-too-short vacation very special. The island is very family friendly, and the wildlife preserve is breathtaking (even the visitors centers there had really exceptional displays). This was our first trip to Chincoteague, but we're looking forward to many more!
Recommended for:Girls getaway, sightseeing, families with young children, age 55+, families with teenagers.
