Cottage w Private Creek, Sunroom, Fire Pit, & WiFi

Summary:
Creekside Retreat is a delightful Chincoteague coastal cottage that’s perfect for couples, families, or small groups of friends -- and has everything you need for your getaway!

The highlights:
- Listen to the birds & frogs along our private backyard creek
- Hang out around the fire pit
- Relax in our sunroom or screened-in-porch
- Stream movies or take video calls on the fastest WiFi you can get
- Explore the pristine beaches of Assateague National Seashore a few miles away

Enjoy!

The Space:
Our creekside-cottage is packed with amenities and fun for couples, families or small groups of friends.

The cabin includes:
- 3 bedrooms (four beds total)
- A large backyard with stone patio, fire pit, and grill
- Direct creek access with daily visits from herons, egrets, and other coastal wildlife
- Beautiful front sunroom and back screened-in-porch offering two locations perfect for relaxing on a sunny day
- Fast WiFi that's good enough to stream movies and hold video calls
- Fully-stocked kitchen with a stove/oven, microwave, dishwasher and coffee bar
- Central HVAC

The backyard and creek are great for spending time outside. Please do know that after rains, the yard may be wet. Also, if you'll be spending time at the creek, many of our guests find bug-repellent helpful. This comes with the territory of being coastal and having a creek, of course!

Linens -- including bedsheets and towels -- are included! (Yes, we think it’s weird no one else seems to do this. We want you to relax and enjoy yourself.) :)

We often take our two little kids and dog to the cabin with us, so we're very family- and dog-friendly.

Beyond the cottage itself, we love how close we are to Assateague Island and National Seashore -- less than a 15 minute drive. Explore the miles of hiking trails, relax on the beach, and view the wild ponies! On your way to/from the beach, you’ll drive through cute little downtown Chincoteague with great shops, cafes, restaurants.

2/10 Terrible

Alison B., Naples, FL

Disliked: Cleanliness
Terrible. We walked in and left with in 15 minutes
This place was nothing like the pictures on VRBO. The house was in such disrepair it looked terrible! There was black mold on the front and back of the house. There was an overturned trashcan in the front yard with trash in it! The grass had not been mowed and was about 8 inches tall. The inside smelled of mold. The furniture old, unmatching. I caught my sweater on a splintered part of the table and it ripped my sweater. There was dust and dirt and a lot of pollen inside the house, all over the floors near the back door and front door. The siding on house was loose and looked like it would fall off. The neighborhood was awful! There was a rusted trailer next door with trash all around it. The other neighbor had a huge tank in yard and trash everywhere. The fence in between this house and the trailer was literally falling over. The ‘firepit’ was a small round bowl with unmatching chairs around and grass so long you would not want to sit out there at all. The neighborhood felt unsafe! No view as this house is right on a road that is LOUD and lots of cars going by. It was so terrible we could not stay there and left 15 minutes after arrival. I contacted the host, he told me to contact VRBO. I hope they will get back to me.

Relaxing
We only had a short stay to relax away from work but the weather didn’t cooperate (rainy and windy). Luckily the cottage was cozy and we enjoyed our books and each other. Only suggestion, need a sponge or brush to help in cleaning up after meals. Would definitely recommend to others

Funky and fun beach cottage
We enjoyed our time in this classic beach cottage - good space for being indoors, all while drawing you outside . Back yard is great for hanging out (even though our weather wasn't great).

Not happy
No bath mats or hand towels in bathrooms. Master shower leaked each time it was used. We had to use extra towels to mop up the water. Not trash bags provided (contacted Tony to get some). No dish towels provided. Paper towels and toilet were cheap and very thin, so you had to use twice as much. Ran out of toilet paper mid week. Contacted Tony and was told no one was available to bring us any more. Had to go to an Island store to buy some. Prices are higher, despite it being "off season". I emptied the 2 humidifiers daily. I was not asked to, but did due to the humidity in the house. Mid week, issue's with AC. Maintenance man showed up over an hour late. He said he thought it was the thermostat. It did work the rest of the stay. Run down trailer right next door. A man sat in his recliner 24/7 watching tv with his window wide open. Kinda creepy! Shower curtain in bathroom was yellowed and gross at the bottom. Small TV, roku needs replaced. LR furniture uncomfortable (it is wicker with cushions). LR is small and limited furniture. Not enough room for more than 3 people. I was texted the night before trash day and told to put the trash out. We had been there 2 days. All the trash was from the previous people. But, I did it. Too many reminder texts about checkout. I am not a moran. DO NOT do Barnacle Bills Boat Tour. Paid over $100.00 and did not see 1 single pony or dolphin!

Quiet Retreat
Enjoyed a long and glorious weekend in Chincoteague with family. The cottage was quaint, clean, and it was greatly appreciated that linens were provided. Communication with the host was exceptional. House instructions and tips for the local area were on point. The screened in patio and the backyard view was tranquil. Thank you for a wonderful stay!

Pony penning week
The pony penning week experience was amazing and highly recommended. We were disappointed to learn upon arrival that the master bath was "under construction". The shower was unusable resulting in 4 adults sharing 1 shower. Not ideal anytime but especially challenging when outdoor activities result in sweat and grime. The host/owner was very responsive, but responses were automated and disingenuous. For example, when told the grill was not operable or safe, he quickly said he'd alert his handyman, but we never saw or heard from the handyman and the grill remained unusable. We made the best of it and enjoyed the experience, but the house was not additive.
