Wonderful, clean house slightly tucked back from the bayfront. Bedrooms have been updated with 2 queen sized beds and one full. Ideal layout for maximum porch enjoyment. Minimal carpet which was excellent for the dog. Expansive kitchen layout for meal prep. All in all, a quiet property away from the bustle of Maddox and downtown.Bring your own outdoor chairs; the current ones of the property should be replaced.

Well, if it had been 50% less cost, especially in November, then all would be ok- it's rustic & charming, at best. The good:Comfy sofas on 1st levelGood kitchen appliances and suppliesBathrooms & bedrooms okA nice peak of the water at sunsetLots of blankets and lampsThe BadView blocked by other housesVery dark, lit mostly by "garage sale" lampsWiring of the house is bad, lights dim often at odd timesA general malaise of dustNO deck or porch furniture that would be safe to sit on- and very little of thatThe "waterfront" access was a 6' wide 100' long grassy path leading to marsh grass.Linens, towels and paper products not suppliedThe UglyGoodness, get rid of all the junk on the walls, shelves, rafters, everywhere- it gives everyone the creeps to see all this dusty old junk!

Love the house. A few recommendations. In the first floor bath there should be grab bars in and outside the tub. It would've been nice to have some decent deck furniture--all the broken stuff was pathetic. In fact, all the broken stuff in the house needs to be pitched. Most important--UPGRADE ALL MATTRESSES!! Do this and the house will be wonderful.

Nice older house with fabulous upstairs lounge on 2 nd floor great view (except for multimillion houses blocking view and access. Can launch kayak into Chincoteague Bay
4.5
Charming house with nice water views. Really poor lighting. Outdoor furniture really needs attention. 1 Adirondack chair was broken as was double rocker on deck. Only 1 operable chair on deck for house that accommodates 6 people is inadequate. I don’t personally want to move furniture from porch to deck while on vacation and then you have to make sure you move everything back upon vacating. Plenty of hot water and good water pressure. Kitchen is OK. If you really plan to do serious cooking, might want to bring a few of your go to pots, pans, good knives, etc. If you’re mostly dining out, kitchen is adequate. Overall a nice stay.

House was clean and did not smell, kitchen is decently stocked but the pots and pans are pretty beat up. The furniture inside is over-kill with too much stuff packed into tight spaces, ironically the outside furniture is lacking and the house could have used more placed to sit on the deck. If the owners read these reviews please consider removing some of the living room furniture (both downstairs and upstairs) so that people can move more easily around the space.

HI,There is a mold problem at this home. There is mold growing on the wall behind the couch in the living room and perhaps elsewhere. You need ServPro or someone like that to come in and do mitigation, otherwise I could not recommend it to a friend and will not be using it until this is taken care of. Great location. Rooms are quiet. Quit street. High ceilings. Great kitchen.Also, some windows do not have screens, so could not get cross ventilation in house.Staff is very professional and friendly. I hope the owners will support taking care of the mold problem.

The house was perfect for our stay with dogs. The house had some great views (especially from the second floor Primary). The house could have used more outdoor furniture on the deck and backyard. Also, the access to the water is a narrow path to a sliver of water. Its great for launching kayaks but you can't really hang out there. The area the house is in also does not have sidewalks that connect to downtown so it makes walking pretty difficult. We'd most likely stay again though.
4.5
this house could be amazing but simply is not. terribly stocked kitchen. rusted out pots and pans. light fixtures from the 1900's nothing really went together, old stinky throw rugs everywhere. the worst bed on earth to sleep in or even get into and out of. loved the house, not needs some serious updates and serious cleaning. i cleaned the whole house before i left, it looked much better than when i arrived if that says anything. most likely won't book here again.

A very nice property. My friends rented it in 2020 and really liked it. I was not able to going them because of Covid but they so liked the place, I had to rent again. This time I made it. It was worth it. Very nice and quiet part of the island. Loved the natural light in the downstairs bedrooms.’

I loved the house and access to the bay. The decor was a nice change from white and wicker beach theme. We did lose internet for 24 hours which was stressful because I’m taking classes and had some work to turn in. The bill was paid and internet was turned back on in time, so it was good. It was the first time we took the dog on vacation and I think she enjoyed it. Thanks for a great vacation!

We’ve visited the island several times over the past several years. We love the island and have nothing negative to say about Harbour rentals. The home was clean and as others have stated a bit over crowded with furniture but not so much so to keep us from enjoying our vacation. The deck is a bit weathered and most outdoor furniture was broken but we made do. Overall a nice home with lots of room to spread out. Was a plus for us that they allow pets.

We enjoy staying here for the sunset views of the bay and now that we can work remotely its even better. The property is clean and decorated eclectically with various antiques which may not be everyone's taste. If you are a chef you may want to bring along some of your own pans, cookie sheet, and/or spices.

We were happy the house was homey. Water view and sunsets spectacular! Loved the two living areas A few suggestions. Need new frying pans. The Teflon ones were burned and unusable. And many of the cute lamps were not bright enough for reading place was clean except for downstairs shower which needed a better cleaning. We would stay here again

The view was nice and the general layout of the house. The only downside was the amount of furniture that filled the house was a bit too much. It would be more relaxing if not so cluttered. A nautical antique theme was appreciated, but would be more enjoyable if not so full. Thanks

Large enough for 2couples; plenty of grass for dog-walking; outstanding view from deck and indoor walls of windows.

This house has a lot of potential. Plenty of room with way too much furniture! Looked like flea market furniture in most rooms with cheap mattresses about 5 inches thick on beds. Outdoor decks are in need of repair with boards lifting up and doors that don't fit! Safety concern with rail missing and this is HIGH above ground level! Beware parents of toddlers because the panel in place is being held by what looks like a bungee cord and rope!!! There is also mold at floor registers in bathrooms and on walls there. Musty smell lets you know there is an issue with moisture and repair man said this home needs a dehumidifier in garage which is at ground level below living quarters. Harbour Rentals was attentive when called about air conditioner not operating correctly.

The location is grand. Some water access for my kayak and we had some good clamming at the property. When we moved in, it was evident the cleaning crew were not the best and the previous guests were not concerned with leaving the stove, dishware utensils etc put away, and dirty. The coffee maker leaked all over the counter. I purchased a new one. Don't expect to have any decent cookware either. The decking needs to be replaced. Sliding door doesn't lock, used a piece of wood to lock it. We've stayed in much better places on the Island, in the same price range, but there are those sunsets. . .

This house nicely accommodated 4 adults and 4 young children. The views of Chincoteague Bay from the deck were gorgeous. The 2nd floor suite provides a panoramic view of the water and is truly a great plus for the house. The beds were comfortable and the area, overall, was quiet, since it's near the Northern end of Main St. The kitchen was adequately outfitted with cookware, cutlery, dishes, etc. All the appliances worked The can opener didn't work. I bought a quality new one at the hardware store and the price will be refunded with my deposit. Unfortunately, this house suffers from neglect. A dining room chair was broken. No cushions were provided for the plastic Adirondack chairs or for the plastic "rattan" chairs in the screened in porch, making it uncomfortable to sit on them. The outdoor shower was a mess; my husband cleaned and organized the space, but why should he have to do it? The deck needs to be replaced! Boards are sticking up and one board on the deck is rotted. The railing section at the end of the deck had fallen off. The "fix" was to roped another section of railing to the existing anchor posts. What if a child had disobeyed and leaned on it or played with it? Dangerous! There are sumac trees encroaching on the driveway by the garage door. Why don't the lawn maintenance people see to that? Spartina grass has nearly taken over the access to the water. The owners of the house next door complained that Spartina was to be cut down completely instead of a narrow footpath. I would rate this house 8/10 because of the neglect.

The property was spacious enough for the two of us. We appreciated having 2 bathrooms, washer/dryer and WiFi. However, we found dirty dishes in the dishwasher when we arrived, a bathroom window with no covering at all, and a screened in porch that was in much need of repair (netting was gone in one area and a door was falling apart). The queen bed upstairs was an antique that had wooden sides that came up to the level of the top of the mattress. I scraped my legs on the wood every time I had to get in and out of the bed. One of the other antique beds (full) was not level and sloped on one side. The other bed (full) had a cheap foam mattress. The house also had a musty/moldy smell. We had to make a quick run to the pharmacy to get some allergy meds for my husband after a day of dealing with the mold. A lot of the furniture was not in great condition (cushions sagged and very uncomfortable on upstairs sofa) or was dated. And it was disappointing that a number of the windows in the main areas had no window coverings at all. We did not feel it was worth the money we paid.

Reviewer Comments:
Though not exactly waterfront, we had a nice view of the bay especially from the second floor living area. The home was nice and clean and had a homey feel. We enjoyed the sunsets and family time. One bedroom was rather tight, but we made it work. Loved the open floor plan and spacious kitchen. The rental company is a dream to work with. We're grateful for all involved for sharing their space and talents so we could have quality family time. Though covid set its limits, we had great takeout and never felt unsafe on the island. An air of care and thoughtfulness for everyone's well being made us feel comfortable and stress faded. Thanks to our home away from home and our Chincoteague friends.
