Oyster Cottage was clean, modern, and located in a quiet coastal village. I appreciated the pet-friendliness of the owners, enjoyed meeting Dave, and learning about his process of getting the cottage in 5-star shape. I hope to return next year!

My family and I just loved staying in Oyster Cottage! It is a lovely space and the views from the deck were wonderful! We really enjoyed venturing out to tour Cape Charles and Chincoteague and then return home to this comforting place.

Thank you for sharing your wonderful experience with us. We're thrilled you enjoyed the cottage and its location. Delighted to know Dave helped make your stay special. We look forward to welcoming you back!
My family of five really enjoyed our stay in this cute cottage. Loved the view of the water as well as the ability to access the water and have a nice area to walk around. Love that it was very close to Cape Charles, but not directly in the hustle and bustle. Cottage was very clean And had good sleeping arrangements for our family of five with three teenagers. The bathroom was very spacious and also clean. It was very convenient to have towels and bedsheets provided. We did not use the kitchen other than to make coffee as we ate dinner out most nights. We really enjoyed seafood from A1 and pizza from Deadrise. Also enjoyed visiting two different beaches, Cape Charles, and the state park at Kiptopeke. The owners were very responsive as well. Highly recommend staying here if you are looking for a beautiful, peaceful stay.

Our stay at the Oyster Cottage was idyllic. Clean with all the basic amenities you need for a peaceful yet fun and wholesome weekend stay. We stayed here with four adults and one toddler (2yo) and it was the perfect size. Spent evenings grilling, eating and playing games on the screened porch, watching gorgeous sunrises each morning and moonrises each night over Oyster Bay. The quietness and immersion in nature is breathtaking. I think our dog enjoyed the weekend the most because of the wide open space for her to run and explore. It's only 10 minutes to the grocery and restaurants and 15 minutes to adorable Cape Charles - the perfect place to stay if you want to escape the tourist hustle and bustle but still get taste of the lively town and fun. There's a beautiful trail, Horse Island Trail, less than a half-mile from the house that takes you out onto the point with scenic views of Oyster Bay. Everything about this property is pure Eastern Shore - 10/10 recommend!
