As close as you can get to the ocean south of Chincoteague

Please feel free to write if you have questions. Unlike Chincoteague, this is a rural setting - the neighborhood is eight houses along Metompkin Bay. But it's an easy half-hour trip to Chincoteague if you'd rather go to the beach there. Our beach is a 15-minute kayak trip away (there are SIX kayaks included in the renta, paddles, and various size life jacketsl). There are also lot of little creeks in the marsh to explore by kayak. If you have a boat, there's a public boat ramp close by.

Our neighbors often fish in the bay, and surf fishing is great at certain times of year. We have crab traps - the crabbing is pretty good off the dock. If you are birders, there are all sorts of places to go (just ask me)! Onancock (10 minutes away) is where we go for nice restaurants and charming little shops. Lots of other attractions are shown in this listing.

We have decks all over the place - two on the water side and one on the land side, in addition to a screened porch - lovely views in all directions. The house is almost all windows on the water side, to take advantage of these wonderful views. The living room/dining room/kitchen is open plan and on the water side of the house. A bedroom, bath, and second bedroom/TV room are on the road side of the house. The bathroom houses a washer and drier that are hidden behind doors. The master bedroom, (loft) and bath occupy the upstairs, and have an even better view of the marshes, bay, and even a glimpse of the ocean! The bottom floor is a garage, and has a laundry sink and extra refrigerator.

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.

Nature bliss
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.

Relaxing romantic getaway
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 home💕

Gorgeous views!
We really enjoyed our stay at this little slice of paradise! The views from the screened in porch or the back decks we’re 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 didn’t 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!

Immaculate, well appointed and peaceful!
The house was perfect for our family’s 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!

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.

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.

A Perfect Getaway
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!
