Charming and clean

Comfortable, clean, well decorated, and nicely stocked! Wrap around porch with screened in section was great for enjoying the night air. Back yard is just dark enough for some decent star watching. Walking distance to a lot of attractions and food. Neighborhood is quiet for runs, walks, or bike riding.

Beautiful cottage in Chincoteague

We had a wonderful stay at this lovely cottage. It was the perfect size for our family of 4 and in a great location. Nice quiet neighborhood. The house was very clean and had a 240 volt outlet outside for EVs (but bring your own charger cord). The host were very friend and responsive. Highly recommended.

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.
