The Shore Shanty - 25 minutes to Chincoteague!
There’s nothing like the smell of salt in the air, the sound of the trees swaying, and a warm breeze through your hair - and that’s just what you’ll find at The Shore Shanty in Captain’s Cove Golf and Yacht Club. One of the best kept secrets on the Eastern Shore of Virginia, Captain’s Cove sits directly on the Chincoteague Bay, just 25 short minutes by car or boat to Chincoteague and Assateague Islands, where our wild ponies roam free. Looking for some OC excitement? Ocean City, MD is a short 45 minute drive away. Here, life takes a slower pace - sipping wine as you watch the sun sink into the Chincoteague Bay, or the joy you feel watching the kids catch Crabs off the Community Pier. THIS is what Vacation Dreams are made of….
The Shore Shanty is a beautiful Brand New Custom Home in Captain’s Cove, and is just full of surprises! Sitting on a peaceful and serene shaded lot, you’ll be close to everywhere you want to be, but still feel a million miles away from the real world. And what’s even better? You can bring your well-trained family dog at no additional cost - because THEY are family, too!
Upon entering, you’ll be swept away by the Colors of Sand and Sea, and flooring reminiscent of a stroll on the Boardwalk. This isn’t just any vacation rental - The Shore Shanty is full of delights for the whole family! Every room has a theme, and every piece of furniture has a drawer full of surprises - both the kids - and the kid in you - will adore it!
You’ll love kicking back in the Living Area after a fun-filled day at the Beach or at the Pools, and enjoying Free WiFi and Flat Screen Streaming TV. There’s plenty of comfy furnishings, and the layout is perfect for spending time together without ever feeling crowded. Full of Local Art, there’s something to enjoy in every room in this beautiful home.
Just off the Dining Area, you’ll find the Chef’s Kitchen, with all the comforts of home, gleaming Granite Countertops, and Stainless Appliances - mealtime will be a bay breeze! Dine in the comfort of Central AC in the Dining Area, or Al-Fresco on the furnished Deck under the shade trees. Not one to cook on Vacation? We’ve got you covered! The Marina Club Restaurant is just down the street, and has fabulous Bayfront Dining!
The Shore Shanty sleeps 6 (occupancy strictly enforced) in pure comfort and style in 3 Bedrooms and with 2 Full Baths. Bedroom 1 - aka The Bird Room - has a Queen Bed, and is beautifully decorated with Custom Art, and muted, relaxing tones, sure to make you feel light as a feather. The Private Attached Bath has a Custom Walk-in Shower. Down the Hall, Bedroom 2 also has a Queen and is decorated with a Floral Theme - so peaceful and relaxing. The kids will go bonkers over Bedroom 3 - the Under the Sea Room - which has 2 Twin Beds, and is nothing short of magical! The kids will slumber with whimsical Jellyfish lights overhead, and stars twinkling on the ceiling. They’ll play for hours in the Under The Sea tent, and find surprises in every corner, closet, and in every drawer. Boredom is not a word you’ll hear on this Vacation, that’s for sure! There is a 2nd Full Bath with Tub/Shower Combo that is shared, and also convenient to the Living Area.

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at the Shore Shanty. Booking and communication with Seaside Vacations was seamless and the representatives communicated well. The property was spotless and in a great location at Captains Cove… a very friendly community… safe to walk and ride bikes around in. Very happy that the property was dog friendly too.
Would definitely recommend!
