Super cute place to stay and off the main roads which helped with keeping nights quiet. It had plenty of spaces to relax and lounge which was great too.
Comfortable cottage with amenities close to everything. We were able to walk to restaurants, our boat tour and pick up groceries. Neighborhood was nice and quiet and the outdoor shower was great! We kayaked, rode bikes and enjoyed the beach while having all the comforts of home.
We loved our stay! The house is very charming, clean, and has everything you need. It’s in a great location and walkable to many restaurants. Can’t recommend it enough!

Thank you Katie! I hope that you got to see a lot of the island! We welcome you back anytime!
Excellent communication from the host from the time of booking until end of trip! As this was our first trip to Chincoteague Island…the excellent communication was so very helpful, along with folder of information at the cottage. As we pulled up to this beautiful and charming cottage, entered into a clean and everything we needed besides our clothing and personal items, is provided…it’s clear that the host wants every guest to truly enjoy their time on CI! So grateful to be able to have a beautiful cottage to rent and enjoy for our getaways…we will be back! Thank you for providing a clean, safe place for us and others to make memories

Issue getting inside on arrival & communicating with host , but second day she responded well to an issue. Otherwise, place was clean & comfortable. Back deck was very nice for outdoor seating. Quiet street close to all activities.

Great beach house

Thank you for choosing Sunshine Retreat! We welcome you back anytime!!!
This was the second time we stayed at Christine's cottage and we had a really great trip. The place was already super comfortable and inviting but the new furniture on the deck is a nice touch!
We enjoyed our stay at this cottage. It was clean and had everything there that we needed. It was close to everything and a lot of places were walkable.
Comfortable and close to enough for a short walk or drive to shops and restaurants. Owner very responsive and provided great tips for where to go on the island.
Charming, comfortable, well located!!! Hopefully we can rent this property again. Loved it! Perfect for two 70 somethings interested in biking, exploring a a nd enjoying the beaches of Assateague.
