Perfect Vacation Rental

Beautifully designed. Everything you could want. Loved the stove. Good location for acess to the park. You'll love this place. It was better than picturedI hesitate to suggest because it was just a perfect stay but a bar in the shower for old folks would be great.

Upon arrival was pleased to see how clean and neat the property was both inside and out. Everything we needed was easy to find and in good condition. Loved the deck and screened in porch. The set up with the tvs was also well thought out. If I get the chance to return to this area, I will try and stay at this property again.

Great Stay in Chincoteague

We had an amazing week in Chincoteague staying at The Starfish! The house was the perfect size for the four of us. Everything was clean and the host provided a few extras - Bluetooth speaker, boogie boards, and lots of board games. Will definitely stay at the Starfish when we return to Chincoteague!

Ponies, Relaxation and Charm

Our family’s getaway to Chincoteague was nothing short of magical. Watching the wild ponies roam freely was wonderful, a sight that never loses its charm no matter how many times we visit. We soaked up the sun on the sandy shores, explored winding nature trails, and embraced every moment of the island’s serene beauty. But some of the best memories were made right at The Starfish - swaying on the porch swing with morning coffee in hand, and sharing laughs and stories with our son on the deck in the afternoon breeze.This was our 3rd stay at The Starfish, and it certainly won’t be our last. Clean, comfortable, and perfectly situated, it provided the ideal setting for a strip filled with relaxation and joy.We left with hearts full and smiles wide!

The “Starfish House” sparkles!

This house is the essence of well-executed simple design, inside and out! From location, architecture, landscaping and interior design, to amenities, necessities and owner support, the Starfish House was a delightful vacation home for us to enjoy charming Chincoteague and Assateague.

Beautiful Cottage in Great Location!

My family and I really enjoyed staying here. It was beautiful and clean. The hosts were also great communicators. I have used VRBO to rent many times at different price points. This place is in my top three. I would definitely return for a longer stay. Thank you!

Beautiful house, close to everything

We loved this house in Chincoteague! The rooms were perfect for our family of 4 and the screened porch was a great place to hang out bug-free at night. The quiet streets were safe for the kids to bike on and the large yard and yard games (corn hole, ladder golf) were fun for everyone. Would love to come back!

A tranquil stay, better than a home away from home

The cottage is completely updated and decorated beautifully and as pictured. The kitchen is well appointed with thought put into to every detail of what you will need for your stay. The neighborhood was quiet and peaceful and being less than two miles away from the state park, with nice trails and beautiful beaches made it a perfect getaway.
