About this property

"A Gem By The Sea" for your family. (New Housekeeping Service)

(New Housekeeping Service 2025)
3 bedroom, 2 newly remodeled full bathroom mobile with our large screened in porch with "Roll down Sun Shades" for when you want to block direct sunlight and for added privacy. We have very nice "Multi Setting's Lighting" nicely hung in and around entire area of the porch for relaxing, subtle moments or just hanging out having fun. A large multi speed ceiling fan. On this porch is where you get the best view of every island "Sunset" and an open air sun deck for entertaining or just relaxing. A fire pit for good times around the fire, roasting marshmallows, smores or just getting lost by staring into the fire . A brand new(2022) large propane grill with picnic table and area for outdoor dining. Full eat in kitchen, living room with flat screen tv, DVD player etc. and only 2 blocks from bay/marina where you can drop in your kayaks, about 2-3 miles from refuge and ocean. New central air unit, comfy new beds, large yard, 3 car driveway, private property, etc. This is an ideal area for all that the island has to offer. Just far enough away for peace and quite but, close enough to all the family excitement the island has in abundance. Also, this location is far enough away from island lights in town that gazing into the night skies becomes an amazing experience with thousands of stars beyond anything you've ever seen. Stay once, you'll want to return! ** Attention:** "July is the busiest month on the entire island" due to our "Month Long Carnival" and our "World Famous", "Chincoteague Pony Swim". People come from all around the world to experience the pony swim! It's truly a magical time for all adults and especially the children to witness.


*** (Attention:)*** Rates during "Pony Swim Week" Tues. July 26 thru Aug.1 2023
(*** Our Property Included***) Rooms/Hotels etc. are much higher that week due to overwhelming demand for vacancy's throughout the entire island! Most places are "Sold-Out" month's in advance for July so, "Bookings Are Very Limited" everywhere on the island. Don't wait to book your time or you may miss out. We work hard at making your stay easy and relaxing. We've begun booking a few dates for the upcoming Spring/Summer of the 2023 season as of this day of February 23, 2022. We look forward to booking our cozy island home with your family.

Feel free to contact us about questions etc. We are easy going and available to help answer your questions. Tim & Julie (443) 977-5669

Thank You.

About the host

Hosted by Tim German

Host profile image
We were regular visitors to the island for many years and, after renting hotel rooms in those years we love the island so much that we decided to meet with a realtor to see what homes were possibly available on the market. After looking at a few homes we turned the corner onto the street our future home is on? We knew IMMEDIATELY we found our Island Gem! Not a doubt about it!
We bought it immediately!
As I mentioned , we rented hotel rooms for years and since we found our Island home? We decided we would pay it forward to people bringing their families to vacation on this wonderful island that we would make it very welcoming/ warm and affordable home for families that work hard all year to afford a vacation that makes them feel welcome and a home to share for year's to come. We want to pay it forward to others and share our blessings with others.

Why they chose this property

The neighborhood is Quite and relaxing. It boasts very little light pollution that increases the unbelievable night skies to view incredible and magical nights of stargazing!!!

What makes this property unique

Our property on on far south side of the island and several miles from downtown. Simply said,,,, It gives you all the peaceful quiet and relaxation when you're away from town/ beach etc It gives you the best of all worlds. Quite when you want it quite but, just very short 5 minutes drive away from all the excitement and energy when you choose to join in. Again, you have the best of both worlds.
