Lovely home and Christine was wonderful about answering any questions promptly. We really enjoyed sitting on the front porch with the fan blowing with the view of the water and watching the ducks

Cozy and comfortable.
Older home charm with modern conveniences. Good location and good views of the bay. We would like to stay again next year during the week of August 19th. From Sunday to Thursday, can we book now and pay in April?

Long weekend getaway in Chincoteague
We spent a long (three-night) weekend in Chincoteague, and thoroughly enjoyed our stay there. Christine is a fabulous host, and the house is in a great location, very convenient to both "downtown" Chincoteague, the wildlife refuge, and Curtis Merritt Harbor (where many of the tour boats are located). Both the lower level screened porch and the upper level un-screened deck are great places to relax in the morning or evening - you can watch birds flying around the marsh, and the front garden is a pollinator haven! Christine provides great instructions and basic info about Chincoteague, and is quick to respond to questions.
