We had a wonderful time at this beautifully appointed home. Everything was just as advertised. Six kayaks, gas grill, beautiful view and great kitchen/dining areas. Our hostess was wonderful to us.
The host was amazingly accommodating to a change in our schedule as well as very responsive to our inquiries. The house has just about everything you could need for a stay. The location is great but the viewâŠâŠâŠI could have stayed on the deck for the entire visit.
The house was lovely and the location was peaceful. The house came equipped with everything and was very well stocked. We did lots of kayaking as well as fishing and crabbing from the dock. We did day trips to Cape Charles, Chincoteague/Assateague Islands, and the Virginia Aquarium. Collette had great communication with us.
The owners were extremely friendly and the beautiful house was filled with art. We had everything we needed for comfort, including a well-stocked kitchen that we cooked meals in as we do at home. The many windows and balconies presented expansive views of ever-changing tides, skies and birds. Kayaking to the ocean beach was special: a perfect 40 minute or so paddle. The beach is virtually untouched by humans so it is private with an abundant amount of interesting seashells.
We were there for a week and never felt so relaxed and inspired. We hope to return for another visit.
Colette was very friendly and accommodating. Her home and property is gorgeous and very well stocked. We spent 3 nights. 1 day we explored Chincoteague by bike and the second day we explored Cape Charles. We should have stayed longer to kayak and explore the creeks, bay and barrier islands. We spent every night star gazing and every day enjoying the beautiful scenery, nature, birds and wildlife. Thank you Colette for sharing your amazing homeđ
We really enjoyed our stay at this little slice of paradise! The views from the screened in porch or the back decks weâre just beautiful. It truly is a birders paradise with bald eagles, purple Martins, Barnes swallows, mockingbird, willets And an abundance of shorebirds. The house was very well stocked including hand soap, dish soap, paper towels, toilet paper, coffee filter and much more. I did bring my own kayaks but really didnât need to because there were nice ones there for guest use. The house was clean and very comfortable. The upper loft bedroom has its own bathroom upstairs with great views from its own balcony. As with every other place on the eastern shore come prepared
With good bug spray to deal with biting bugs when outside. We were there before the horseflies got too bad and there was typically a good breeze when sitting outside on the decks. Pretty much everything that you could need is there for the kitchen and cooking which I was very surprised with. It was a very peaceful and relaxing trip and I would definitely come again!
Stayed three nights. Amazing views over the marsh, sightings of eagles, willets, skimmers, sandpipers, plovers, and more without leaving the house. Super clean home, well stocked and welcoming. Quite remote, Just the way we like it. Host could not have between more responsive and helpful.
The house was perfect for our familyâs long weekend stay in April 2024. The location is splendid for its views, water accessibility and peace and quiet. We kayaked to the barrier island (approx.15 min) and found many pristine whelk sea shells. We thoroughly enjoyed crabbing and fishing in the creek as well bird watching. The homeowners really have provided just about everything you could ask for as far as amenities and supplies. Additionally they were very helpful and informative when we had questions. We will definitely be staying here again!
Our family loved our time together at this awesome house. The house was stocked with everything that we could want. We had a great time with the kayaks and fishing off the dock. We can't wait to come back.
180 degree view of Metompkin Bay and Ocean beyond the dunes! Sunrises were awesome! Wildlife delightful. Very quiet and secluded. Nicely equipped with everything and more that you might need or want.
I will be back!
The home itself is stunning! Clean, well decorated, comfortable, with lots of space! The views from all floors is unreal - so gorgeous! Collette was also so kind and responsive. We had an amazing stay at this house!
Beautiful, comfortable, well maintained home with spectacular views of the marshes and tidal water of the Virginia Eastern Shore. The peace and quiet of this home is only broken by the gentle sounds of the wind and birds. The sunrises are spectacular. The kitchen is well equipped so bring your own food to cook or take advantage of the fresh local seafood. Couldn't have asked for a better getaway.
What can we say that others haven't said...
If you're an avid birder, love the waterfront and you love the quiet...this is the place to stay.
House is well equipped.
We will be back...
This was our second stay and we will keep coming back! The home itself is lovely and had EVERYTHING we needed. Very well stocked, clean, and organized. Incredible views and peaceful and quiet. We only heard birds and the ocean in the distance. Great kayaking, biking, and walking! The sunrises, sunsets, the moon, and the stars gave us something we will never forget. Thank you for sharing your home with us and to Colette for making our stay hassle free.
The house was impeccably clean and especially well-appointed for cooking/serving. Beautifully decorated, comfortable beds. Everything you could need is there. Outdoors was stunning. We fished and crabbed (successfully!) off the dock, soaked in the sun and the stars on the deck, kayaked out for a day at the beach and spent a day at Chincoteague and Assateague seashore. It was a dream. We couldn't have had a better time! Thanks for such a rare and wonderful spot!
Absolutely stunning views. Pictures do not do it justice. Relaxing and quiet. Even the neighbors are the nicest. From high tide to low tide, from sunrise to sunset, from moon rise to moon set and everything in between was beyond what we thought it could be. Canât wait to come back!
What a wonderful house and location! Everything was perfect and just how I expected it to be. Colette is incredibly responsive and a great host. I was sad to leave.
