Perfect Vacation Rental

Beautifully designed. Everything you could want. Loved the stove. Good location for acess to the park. You'll love this place. It was better than picturedI hesitate to suggest because it was just a perfect stay but a bar in the shower for old folks would be great.

Great Stay in Chincoteague

We had an amazing week in Chincoteague staying at The Starfish! The house was the perfect size for the four of us. Everything was clean and the host provided a few extras - Bluetooth speaker, boogie boards, and lots of board games. Will definitely stay at the Starfish when we return to Chincoteague!

Upon arrival was pleased to see how clean and neat the property was both inside and out. Everything we needed was easy to find and in good condition. Loved the deck and screened in porch. The set up with the tvs was also well thought out. If I get the chance to return to this area, I will try and stay at this property again.

The “Starfish House” sparkles!

This house is the essence of well-executed simple design, inside and out! From location, architecture, landscaping and interior design, to amenities, necessities and owner support, the Starfish House was a delightful vacation home for us to enjoy charming Chincoteague and Assateague.

Beautiful house, close to everything

We loved this house in Chincoteague! The rooms were perfect for our family of 4 and the screened porch was a great place to hang out bug-free at night. The quiet streets were safe for the kids to bike on and the large yard and yard games (corn hole, ladder golf) were fun for everyone. Would love to come back!

Perfect bungalow near refuge

It was the perfect size house for just the two of us. It was newly renovated and very clean. The kitchen was really great with new higher end appliances. The neighborhood was quiet with easy access to the wildlife refuge and a bike rental company. Couldn’t have asked for a better stay.

Wonderful Stay!!

A wonderful place in an ideal location—even better than advertised. This delightful cottage has been thoroughly modernized and tastefully decorated. The porches are broad and cool even in the heat of the day, and the kitchen beautifully designed and equipped. Whether you’re pony-watching, beach-going, wilderness hiking or just getting away from it all, this is the perfect place to stay. We especially appreciated the host’s flexibility in modifying our initial reservation.

Amazing time at Starfish

Everything was fantastic. The house is beautifully maintained and tastefully decorated. Stocked with nice cookware and everything you need to get your vacation started right. Great location away from the main road, but everything you need is still close. Easy drive in the park to get to the beach and all the sights. Great communication with the hosts for anything we needed. Would recommend this home to anyone without hesitation.

A gem of a cottage!

This cottage was very thoughtfully and tastefully remodeled and decorated, and was equally pleasing to the adults and the kids in our family. Location cannot be beat if you are looking to explore Assateague/Chincoteague. Hosts were very responsive and incredibly understanding. A clear winner.
