We did last minute stay for New Years Eve. The host was awesome and got us in the night before. It is right in town, close to everything. Love that it’s a pet friendly home and beds were comfortable. Communication was very easy and responded quickly. Five stars!! Thank you for our stay!

Quiet street with easy access to the main part of town. Kitchen was clean and well equipped. We were just two people, but the house is definitely large enough for a family of 6 or more. Loved the period details of the house including wood floors, stairs, and wood trim.

Amazing location, wonderful house!

The house was awesome! Perfectly clean, kitchen was recently renovated and there was even an outdoor shower! We stayed for two weeks and LOVED it! Highly recommend! The owners were incredibly response and we were completely at ease. The kitchen was well stocked with utensils and the cookware was top notch!

Quiet old house, very centrally located

Pleasant stay. The house is in the middle of Chincoteague, so everything is close (multiple restaurants you can walk to, etc.) but it's on a side street that gets very little through traffic, so it still manages to feel quiet. The house is dated but very comfortable, all four adults had their own room, and the host was a pro - communicated everything before we needed to ask.

Great location

It wouldn’t have taken much to make this a 5-star stay. Small $ items like soap, shampoo, toilet paper, decent window blinds, fix broken light fixtures, spruce up torn wallpaper, very worn out furniture, etc. As a former host myself, these are no-brainers. Our first trip to the store should not have been to buy essentials. But the location is perfect! The house was large enough for the 4 of us. We had a wonderful time and will be going back to Chincoteague but probably not to this house. There are so many to choose from on the island with more to offer.

6 Year Old’s Birthday Weekend Getaway!

For our weekend trip, the house was just perfect. However, we initially were provided the wrong code for the house but after a phone call within 5 minutes all was handled. The email communication wasn’t always as speedy as I would have liked. I also didn’t know until the night before that we would need to bring sheets etc. Some of the VRBO places I’ve stayed at provide items so this would have been nice to to know more than a day before our trip. Just a few kinks. However we loved Chincoteague and Assateague - especially our 6 year old!!’

Wanted to love this charming house. Has potential.

Have been renting homes from Home Away/VRBO since 2007. Have never been disappointed until now. Would have left upon arrival if I had another option. First sign should have been that outdoor garbage was half full when we arrived. House reminded me of a beautiful person dressed in dirty rags. Downstairs floors and rugs were visibly dirty. Bought Swiffer day after we arrived and vacuumed, however, rugs are so filthy that they need replacing. Rug in upstairs bdrm with sofa reaked of cigarette smoke. All the very inexpensive blinds in the house were damaged (could be replaced easily at less than $5 each). Living room - Big stain on sagging panels on ceiling in living room that looked like they could fall any moment. Fabric on top of leather like ottoman was completely peeled off, love seat had no legs so you were literally 4 inches lower than matching sofa. DIY coffee table makes room feel cheap. Dining room - DIY table is uneven and gaps in slats make it unusable without tablecloth (brought one with me). Blinds severely damaged. Bathrooms - With the exception of paper blinds on window, downstairs bathroom was perfect. Inside of upstairs tub felt like it had been repaired and not sanded/polished. Had to buy a mat for inside of tub to bathe my grandchild in. There were plenty of towels, but if staying for more than a few days bring laundry pods to wash them. Kitchen - 2 Power strips on back of counter (on same side of sink) were only outlets to use coffee pot, microwave or anything else you need electricity for in kitchen. Floor was dirty. Old oven (not meaning antique) stopped working Thanksgiving morning and oven light started flashing and beeping when using stovetop for prolonged period at higher than medium temperature. If it wasn't for family living down the street dinner would have been ruined. Coffee pot was large Keurig so purchased a drip maker for our 6 day stay. Not a paper towel to be found. Brought several rolls. Bedrooms - Sheets were provided, but brought our own. Had to wash upstairs blankets upon arrival because white one looked visibly dirty and found pet hair on another. No comforters/bedspreads as pictured on website. Thank goodness we brought extra blanket and one guest used blanket that wasn't used in small room to keep warm. Beds were comfortable though. Too many other things (negative and positive to mention) Suffice to say house needs serious deep cleaning and upgrades. It's very charming, just needs love.

Wonderful location !! Great sunsets just up the block. Quaint home. AWESOME Front porch. Never turned on the TV. Could use a few more pots & pans. Perhaps update the Porch chairs- Formal Dining Room chairs . . . . . but all in all PERFECT. Would definitely recommend.
