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.

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!

About the host

Hosted by Christine Rufener

My husband first took me on our 1 year Anniversary date to Chincoteague, I fell in love with the charming fishing village and we bought the cottage the very next year. We love anything that has to do with the ocean, fishing, seafood, boating, beaches, lighthouses, antiquing and sun!

Why they chose this property

I fell in love with the little cottage the day I went to look at it. It was filled with antiques and the lady had it decorated it so nicely. Unfortunately, they did not convey with the house. I loved the hardwood floors and quaintness of the cottage. It was perfect to me. I like to experiment with different colors. It is my fun place!
