Every comfort provided

We Loved staying in this warmly inviting cottage on Chincoteague island. Every comfort was provided in this warm beach cottage and the well- appointed amenities made it feel like home. Having breakfast on the sunny enclosed porch was a great start to the day! Within walking distance of good restaurants, the waterfront, shopping, with a short drive to local sights.

Cozy Cottage Allows Pony Experience

We enjoyed our stay on Chincoteague Island. The Cozy Cottage allowed us easy access to the events of the famous pony swim, the carnival and the downtown area. The cottage was well equipped and comfortable. My only criticism is; that I wish we could have used the front porch.

Quiet and charming

I could live here! An adorable and well kept cottage with everything you could possibly need. Easy walk to Main St, grocery store and trolley. Stayed for Oyster Fest with my sister and it was easy to get there on the trolley and nice to be away from the action. We're both big readers and really enjoyed all of the comfortable indoor and outdoor spots to lounge. Comfortable beds too. Absolutely wonderful stay!

A Quaint Little Spot!

Stayed at Christine’s house for a weekend getaway with a few friends, and this house was perfect for what we were looking for. The street was nice and quiet, close enough that we could walk down to some of the great coffee shops for breakfast, but far enough away from everything that we weren’t bothered. Spent lots of time on the awesome back deck, enjoying the cool May weather!
