This home was a perfect stay for us! We brought bikes and kayaks (even though there was a canoe and bikes to use at the house) and LOVED having the pier for our use and enjoyment! House was spotless and very comfortable - I hope we can stay again sometime soon!
Beautiful view. Better than advertised. Dock was great for morning coffee and evening wine. Porches were awesome as well. Short ride to park and to downtown.
We loved the location! Quiet, beautiful, the dock and screened in porch were super great! The shower in the master bedroom was really good, we only wished that the jetted tub had been working. We didn’t sleep in the beds provided as they were rock hard and the springs in them were very bouncy. My husband and I got a kick out of sleeping on the couches as sleeping on them took us back to our teenage years. We enjoyed our stay, but I don’t think we will be back unless different beds are there.
Lovely! Clean and tidy. Lots of instructions around (which were helpful!). A great view of the water and very peaceful. Wish we could've found where the bikes were located but no worries. The pier was great for a cup of coffee and the dog loved chasing the frogs around the yard and lounging on the pier with us.
Good location and exactly as advertised. I traveled with my mother, sister and my daughter. I shared the twin bedroom with my daughter and the two twin mattresses could use an update. The rest of the house was great!
This property exceeded my expectations in every way and we hope to / look forward to coming back in the future. Thank you to the owners who shared their magical nook with us, the laughter and memories made at your house will be forever cherished in our hearts.
One of the most beautiful and convenient homes on the Island!
After coming to Chincoteague for many years we were amazed by the location and views of this house! Beautiful views of the inlet and the park, and access to water will heal any stress you may bring here. It is within walking distance from the main park, stores, food, and entertainment. House is well-supplied and has everything one would need for a beach trip, fishing, or a hike. It's even supplied with 2 bicycles! We enjoyed our stay and highly recommend choosing this house!
The location(Piney Island) on the water is wonderful. However, the dock is in disrepair and the house has not been updated and has quite a few things that are not fully functional inside. The views and access to water make it worth it, but it is definitely due for a renovation soon.
We had a wonderful time at Island Haven - my husband, his parents and myself slept wonderfully and had a great time at the house! So quiet. We enjoyed the pier, the patio and the stunning views. The house and kitchen are well equipped and in even better shape than in the pictures suggest. We’d love to stay another time!
The property manager was kind and very responsive: they fixed the screened door the same day - on a holiday! - quite outstanding.
Great location, everything was close by. Perfect for dog owners as house had every accommodation for your pet (crate, leash, dog bowls, furniture covers). Above expectations regarding grills, fishing & crabbing equipment, beach chairs, bicycles…everything! Check in/out communication snags (no email when unit was available to check in, Seaside site didn’t show access code, no email with checkout instructions)
Pull out sofa was very dirty and a Lotta cat hair and it smelled and we had to spray it a few times
Pull out sofa was very dirty and a Lotta cat hair and it smelled and we had to spray it a few times and there’s still cat hair drifting all over the first floor
Island Haven should be renamed Sunrise Haven. My mom and I watched the sunrise every morning from the top deck, and it was such a beautiful thing to behold. Our family of 5 plus our dog stayed for 6 days. We enjoyed the view and being able to relax together. The kitchen was well-stocked with pots/pans and utensils. There is plenty of storage in the bedrooms, and the living room and dining table both had seating enough for everyone.
The beds are a little stiff, so if you have trouble sleeping you might need to bring a foam topper. I would also recommend you bring insect repellant and some sort of itch relief cream if you plan to spend much time outdoors. There is plenty of wildlife to enjoy both on land and water. The neighborhood provides a safe place to walk or bike.

Our family had not been to Chincoteague before and absolutely loved it. We will be back. The location of this property is excellent. Really, this is the best location, in my opinion. This house specifically was not well cleaned or maintained. There was a dried, sticky spot about the size of a napkin in the dining room we cleaned. On the third floor balcony where there is no screen, there were 4 slats not connected at all to the porch. Very very dangerous for our toddler. Had she leaned on those to look out, she would have fallen three stories. There were also handwritten notes EVERYWHERE. This homeowner seems to be very specific about their property. It appears to be pet friendly but no people friendly. Their handwritten instructions were very threatening with fines if you tried to open the blinds. The notes also contradicted the instructions from the management company with a few things. The stove desperately needs to be updated as the burners were not even to balance pans on while cooking. We did enjoy the back patio and the dock. We will absolutely be back to Chincoteague, this area and would book through the management company again, but we would not consider this property or a property from this homeowner again.
The place was great. Very clean. In great condition. Clear directions and instructions by the homeowner. Just a solid experience all the way around. Thanks for a nice stay.
