We used the home for 8 nights with our full family celebrating 30 years together and my retirement. Spacious! Very hot days and AC worked very well! Separate compressor for 1st & 2nd floor. Plenty of kitchen and eating space. Loved the AM and evening porch sitting with water view. The minor issues we ran in to were easily corrected by us. Host was always available for questions. We would absolutely stay again! Walking distance to anything you need including Island Creamery!!

Our 2nd visit!

We stayed in this property for 4 weeks in 2020, and were happy to return, this time just for 4 days. We brought the whole family this time, with 10 of us in the house. We had plenty of room. It’s such a great location, too. We’re already looking forward to coming back a 3rd time someday.

Great location!

We had a great trip! It definitely wasn't the cleanest place we've stayed at and when you walk in it has a heavy smell of must/moth balls. There was tons of room and we could all spread out and not feel crowded around each other. The location is absolutely perfect! The house contact person was very kind and personable.

Clean spacious house

Upstairs master bathroom toilet wasn’t working, which was a bummer - but not unbearable (at least shower was functional). My family has been coming here for years & we love the location & spaciousness of the house. Hopefully we’ll be back next year too.

Family Vacation

The house was big with plenty of spaces for our whole family to spread out as well as the large eat in kitchen/family room where we all ate and spent time together. The location is great and we were able to walk to shops and restaurants. We had a couple issues but they were addressed right away. It is a big old house with a downstairs bedroom which is great for older family members. The diwnstairs bathroom is small, but the owner is in the process of remodeling the bathrooms. Overall we loved being together there and would stay again.

Nice big house in a very convenient location!

The house was perfect for a post-Christmas mini-break with my adult children from out of state. With 5 bedrooms and two living spaces, there was plenty of room for everyone. It is an older home, but it was kept very clean. The kitchen was up-to-date with all new appliances. It was an interesting sort of house because there were architectural and design styles from a bunch of different eras, and this made it very unique. The location right as you come into town is great because it was easy to get to and there is a lot you can walk to. Nice water views from the front of the house.

Stay on the Island

We all enjoyed the space!!! There were a few issues - concrete blocks underneath the master bed, master toilet wasn’t working, the ice maker couldn’t keep up and water was an issue on Sunday. Bathtub wouldn’t drain, toilets weren’t flushing properly and water was coming out from underneath the house. I also have never stayed in a VRBO that I had to make the beds. We loved the location but overall the issues out weighed the location.

Better than the listing

We were thrilled with this property. The pictures do not do the house justice. The rooms are large and reasonably furnished. We had 9 adults and a 2-year old. We had plenty of space to spread out. At the same time the common areas were large enough for all of us. The TV's have been replaced with nice sized flat screens. Plenty of parking with room for the dogs to run around outside. Sheets, pillows, and towels were all provided which is a nice plus. The negatives are minor. The shower downstairs is very small, the house only has 1 refrigerator, and the upstairs deck has no furniture. We are planning to stay here again the next time that we come to Chincoteague.

About the host

Hosted by Rodney Alexander

Host profile image
Hello! I am a sales manager for a Fortune 500 Company and am thrilled that you are interested in possibly renting our vacation property. My wife (Alicia) and I have 3 wonderful daughters and a puppy. Fletcher, the English Lab you see in the picture recently went to doggy heaven but he was such a part of our lives when we visited Chincoteague we saw this picture and thought he should be a part of the greeting since he was such a happy and fun loving dog to all. We currently reside in Hockessin, DE but I have been vacationing in Chincoteague since I was 5 years old. Chincoteague has so much to offer in what I like to do (i.e. fishing, boating, beach, claming, crabbing, jogging, biking, etc) that it makes it hard to leave when we visit.

Why they chose this property

Once you see Rachel's Delight you will see why it is an attraction on the island. Ever since I was a little boy I had always admired the house with the big white pillars. It is literally one of the larger homes on the island so when it came up for sale back in 2009 I gathered my wife and my father up to find the means to purchase. We lucked out and the rest is history.

What makes this property unique

Rachel's Delight is spacious so you will find plenty of room to get away for privacy or to congregate with family / friends. It's convenience to Main Street really make the home a special place since it takes away the hassle of parking and managing busy streets.
