We had an amazing time!! Hosts were incredibly responsive, the place was stocked with beyond anything we could have needed. Access to kayaks and paddle boards was special and so fun to be directly on the water. Our dog was also incredibly happy with all the exploring and swimming she got to enjoy. This place is a gem!

Bunk house stay

We have stayed at the main house and now at the small bunk house next door. The location and the amenities at this property make it a great place to stay. We have stayed at a number of places on the Eastern Shore, but this one is by far the best.

Pony Penning Days

John is an excellent host, very helpful and considerate. The cottage is well appointed, very clean and neat and is located on a little piece of paradise overlooking them a marsh on the edge of the Bay. It's quiet, peaceful, and we even greeted by a small family of deer as we returned in the evenings. No need to pick up paper goods, ziplocks, or plastic food storage containers because everything is right there, including a new Weber gas grill on the back porch as well as chairs to relax in and a patio table and chairs.The beds and pillows were very comfy and the water pressure in the shower was great! Big, fluffy towels and washing machine and dryer.It's a short drive over to Chincoteague but it's an easy trip through the countryside and we were able to leave the crowd on the Island each day and sleep peacefully at the cottage at night. John hooked us up with a wonderful local boat captain, C.L. Marshall, a knowledgable local with a passion for the community and life, and we enjoyed a trip to Tangier and to Smith Island where we ate fresh crab cake sandwiches and the famous Smith Island Cake of Maryland, for lunch in Tylertown at the Drum Point Mkt. We were able to book CL, Friday to watch the Pony Swim back to Assateague Island, because we got lucky and his group had an emergency and had to cancel. I can't thank John enough for his hospitality and guidance during our stay! 5Star Top Shelf host!!

Waters' Edge Studio Apartment

Very nice studio apartment for up to four people, with boat ramp and dock. Owner was very responsive. The apartment itself was very clean and well equipped with four bunks (plus a trundle), excellent air conditioning, modern well-equipped kitchen, bathroom and deck with gas and charcoal grills. There is easy access to fishing in surrounding bays and creeks, but at low tide the channel between the dock and bays is quite shallow (about a foot deep). The owner provided access to kayaks, paddleboards, tube, water skiis, plus crab pots to catch your own. Nice small island about a mile offshore with a beach. Lots of wildlife in the area. Take binoculars.

Family friendly secluded cottage

Our family enjoyed our stay in both the House and the Cottage. The property was a very nice size and was very secluded and private making it the perfect getaway during covid times. The cottage was very cozy and comfortable with plenty of space to relax and enjoy your vacation. Our only complaint was the options for buying dinner which potentially was due to the time of year and everything not yet being open for the season. We definitely would stay here again as we enjoyed your secluded family spring break vacation and would highly recommend to anyone looking for a similar type vacations.
