Serenity Now - It's exactly what you need!
Welcome to Serenity Now in gorgeous Captain’s Cove - one of the best kept secrets on the Eastern Shore of Virginia! This spectacular Vacation Home will make all your dreams come true with something for everyone in the family. Located directly on the Chincoteague Bay, this home is only 25 short minutes by car or boat to Chincoteague and Assateague Islands, where our wild ponies roam free. Looking for some OC excitement? Ocean City, MD is a short 45 minute drive away.
As you drive down Blackbeard Road, it’s hard to keep your eyes on the road - you’ll want to stare at the Bay, only steps away. You cannot wait to see where you’ll be spending your ESVA vacation. As you come around the bend and see this gorgeous home, you know you made the right choice. The first thing you will notice is ample parking for 4 cars, and a double garage perfect for storing all your toys, kayaks, beach chairs, and more.
Upon entering Serenity Now, you’ll head upstairs and be utterly captivated by the views. The first thing you will notice is a wall of windows facing the Bay - the views are amazing! This level features a large Living Area with beautiful, comfortable furnishings with a Coastal flair, and new carpet throughout. What a great place to relax and enjoy the Flat Screen Satellite TV with VCR/DVD. Wistful blue built-ins are loaded with books and games for you to enjoy with your family. The Fireplace demands attention with custom Coastal Artwork painted on the mantel. There is a Queen Sleeper Sofa in the Living Room, just in case you need some extra space to stretch out. Also on this level is a gorgeous Queen Bedroom with a Tommy Bahama flair and a Full Bathroom with tub/shower combo.
This dream home is the epitome of the Open Floor Plan, as the Living Room leads into the huge Dining Area with room for the whole gang at the dining room table and breakfast bar. The enormous Kitchen will thrill the Chef in the family - talk about cooking dinner with a view! The kitchen, with Stainless Appliances, is extremely well-stocked with everything you need to make mealtime a bay breeze. You can also dine Al Fresco on the furnished Screened-in Porch or Bayfront Deck. Imagine sinking into an Adirondack with a cocktail on one of the many decks as you watch the sun sink into the Chincoteague Bay. Don’t feel like cooking? The Captain’s Cove Marina Club Restaurant is just a short walk away.
As you make your way to the second level, you’ll pass the Laundry Room with full size Washer and Dryer. No one likes to do laundry, but the Laundry Chute from the next floor makes it so convenient. Upstairs you will find 2 more bedrooms and a spectacular Full Bathroom. Bedroom 2 features a Queen Bed, a Full Bed, and warm cedar accents. Beautiful skylights brighten this room which also has a Flat Screen TV/DVD. The Master Bedroom will take your breath away with bright white and serene blue bedding and furnishings, incredible views, skylights, and 2 huge closets. The Master also features a Private Bayfront Balcony for you to enjoy morning coffee and the smell of the salt air. You will love watching the rhythmic light from the Assateague Lighthouse and the lights from Chincoteague Island bounce off of the water. The 2 room Bathroom on this level is awesome. In one area is a huge Jacuzzi Tub framed in warm cedar, and a large walk in shower. The second room features a dressing area, vanity area, and the other bathroom amenities.
On top of 3 levels of waterfront magnificence, you will love having your own Private Dock! Enjoy crabbing in your own backyard, or casting a line and catching a Flounder, Croaker, Ray, or even small Sand Sharks at night! Bring your kayaks, jet skis, or boat and launch from the Marina, just around the corner. Captain’s Cove is loaded with amenities - a Golf Course, Indoor Pool, 2 Outdoor Pools - 1 Bayfront with Tiki Bar, Gym, Playground, Restaurant, and Snack Bar.

Wonderful

We loved this rental. We loved we were on the water, and the kids could fish/crab off the dock. We loved sitting on the back porch, watching boaters go by.
We had a great week at the house. It had everything we needed. Had the pleasure of watching a rocket go up from Wallops Island right from the deck of the house. A definite highlight.
This was just what our family needed. Plenty of time to relax and reconnect and plenty of space to do it. Our teens enjoyed crabbing off the dock & fishing during the day. Late afternoons were spent at Assateague. It was perfect! We will be back next year!
A great alternative to our traditional beach vacation.
We lost our summer rental this year, so I went hunting for an alternative. Serenity Now worked out well. We visited the beach several times during the week, and went on a boat tour. The views were great. We swam in the bay, but I prefered the ocean. Be prepared... this spot is quiet, but also 30 minutes from everything. Overall, I would recommend the vacation house for a quiet place to get away from it all. I felt very safe from Covid, which meant alot to me.
This was the most beautiful place to vacation. I loved the dock. The house was so beautiful other than the outdated dirty couch I didn’t sit on, it did and didn’t matter because I spent most of my time fishing and crabbing, but I had other family members that wanted to sit on it. I loved the dock and just sitting out enjoying the weather. I experienced the blood moon and NASA launch a rocket. I definitely will be back next year and then again and again, hopefully their will be a new couch. Best place ever. Location is key. Thanks for the wonderful stay.
The location is stellar and the house has a very nice floor plan.
It could, however, use a few modern upgrades. For example, there is no television in the master bedroom, the sliding doors are difficult to open and the screens are broken, the entrance to the second floor should be cleaned up a bit and the spa bathtub on the second floor has a broken drain switch so you have to hold it down to allow the water out. Some small upgrades would go a long way. Otherwise, it was peaceful and we enjoyed the pool and access to main surrounding areas.
Lovely house in a great location.
All questions prior to arrival were answered promptly. I had to no other reason to contact the owner after we got here. Everything was as advertised, everything worked just fine.
Located in a quiet area, sitting on the deck enjoying the sound of the water and watching the sea birds and dolphins was blissful.
Besides the nearby Marina restaurant, everything needed was within 25 minutes - supermarket, pharmacy etc., and all that Chincoteague Island has to offer. We also recommend the Dockside restaurant in Pocomoke City.
Would we stay here again? Yes. Without doubt.
The view was outstanding, we could have easily sat on the deck and never left and I would have been perfectly content. Very quiet community we enjoyed riding our bikes and saw a lot of deer and even a few babies which their spots still. Also saw some dolphins, a bald eagle and a few pilated woodpeckers while we were there. We also enjoyed using 2 out of 3 pools and used the gym, it is small but got the job done on a rainy night. We preferred using the steps in the back vs the front. The house could use a little updating but nothing major and I would recommend adding a curtain in the room with 2 beds as my kids weren’t thrilled for early morning sun. Plan your grocery shopping ahead of time as it’s about 25 mins to get anywhere, which is part of why we enjoyed it. Loved being able to get away from it all. Hope to return again next summer.
Our stay at Serenity Now was comfortable and peaceful. We wanted a relaxing get away and that's just what we had. The house is spacious with wonderful views. We enjoyed relaxing on the deck overlooking the Bay, bird watching and stargazing. There were five of us in the home with multiple devices and we had no connectivity issues. Once we were there, we did not want to leave.
The property is secluded and you have to drive 20-30 minutes to reach a grocery, so be sure to double check the shopping list. There are three rather steep staircases (2 that enter the home, one inside) that could be difficult for those with limited mobility. The hosts were communicative, but not intrusive. When we had questions or concerns, they were prompty answered.
We look forward to staying again in the future.
Overall, the place was great. The view is wonderful, layout of rooms worked well, and kitchen was well supplied. A few tweaks are needed as follows:
Neither key in the box opened the front door, had to go around to the back.
Light fixture over sink didn't work.
Showerhead in upstairs bathroom needs to be replaced.
New batteries needed for the remotes.
Oven pilot light kept clicking at first, but then stopped and was OK thereafter.
Dishwasher should be replaced. Very loud and was impossible to put large pots in.
Again, these are little things. The place was cozy, nicely decorated, and we had a great time.
We found Serenity Now to be an inviting, wonderful place to stay. The views are wonderful and the property spacious. The master bedroom with its own little deck was fabulous. We were lucky enough to have scheduled during a time of rocket launch from Wallops Island and had the perfect viewing location, a real boon since COVID had the Visitor Center and Viewing Areas shut down.
Other reviews addressed some of the furniture being dated and it's true. The couch and chairs were not the most comfortable, but our group did not spend much time there so it was okay. The beds were comfortable and clean.
I could see us returning again and again except that between the time of booking and the time of our stay changes imposed by the HOA will exclude families of our size (7) from this house, a real shame since we all loved it so.
The property management was responsive to calls about light bulbs that weren't working. They were great. No other problems to deal with.
Hadn't been cleaned before we arrived. Hadn't been thoroughly cleaned in some time. Stained carpet. Broken ice maker, kitchen light and Wifi. Management offered to come clean the next day but we declined because the bathrooms and kitchen really had to be addressed when we got there so we cleaned it. Management finally agreed to credit us for the cleaning fee but we never received the reimbursement. Also they called mid week to have an appraiser come through because the house was to be sold....we declined but really???
See a bald eagle from the back porch! Close to Chincoteague and Assateague.
Well-equiped spacious kitchen.
Best crab-shack around the corner (Crusty Crab).
Great location!!
We recently stayed in this property with our teenage kids. The location is fabulous, and the home is situated right on the bay - can't beat it. The house has a stunning view of the bay, with a lovely porch off the living room. We enjoyed the screened in porch for meals in the evening.
The pier was wonderful for fishing, crabbing and paddleboarding and kayaking in the beautiful waterfront. The drive to the beach wasn't hard at all, and we loved having the option of both bay and ocean.
The house overall was a little dated and could use some updates. The kitchen is nice and large for all our needs. It's a lovely , quiet and peaceful neighborhood. We enjoyed using the pools at the clubhouse as well. Thanks for giving us a wonderful place to spend the week together this summer!
The home is dated but comfortable.
View is great, although no sunset views this time of year. Community amenities are great. Great for bike rides and some hidden gems of walking trails.
Chincoteaque/Assateague State Park a short drive away. A must and then stop at Island Creamery for the BEST icecream!!
