House had a beautiful view! Nice quiet neighborhood. Upon arrival some of the deck material was in the middle of living room. Screens on deck were ripped in a few places. There was a storm recently. Workers arrived the next day to work on screens but only fixed one area. Kitchen had everything needed. I would book this house again for it’s beautiful view!

This large beautiful property was just what we were looking for. My brother and I and our spouses were looking for a quiet getaway near the water. Relaxing and spending time together at the house and the national seashore nearby made for a great vacation. Good restaurants on the island as well for when we didn't feel like cooking. Hoping to book this property again in the future!

This was our 7th year staying at A Shore Thing on oyster Bay. We absolutely love the home and enjoy our time there. Waking up early and having coffee on the screened porch is my favorite. We all love to cook in the well equipped kitchen. The bedrooms are all comfortable. Looking forward to coming back in 2023!

This was our first year vacationing in Chincoteague and it did not disappoint. We absolutely loved staying at your beautiful vacation home. The kitchen had anything and everything you would need, the house was clean and the perfect set up for our family! The view wasn’t too bad either! We will be back!

Shore Thing is a beautiful house overlooking the water. The layout was great for our family, the house well-designed and well-maintained. We loved seeing the ducks and geese come up the canal, and Assateague lying just across the way. Perfect for us as we re-gathered and celebrated Thanksgiving!

Reviewer Comments:
This was our fourth time to the island and second time at Shore Thing on Oyster Bsy. We love the location and lay out of the home. We pick this home even though their is only the two of us. We hope to make this an annual trip, however the upkeep on the home is slipping. We were greeted with a super smelly kitchen area, fish! Yuck! After opening every window overnight the smell was mostly gone. Why couldn’t housekeeping have addressed this? The carpet on the steps to upper living space is torn and dirty, too dirty to walk on without shoes. The ceiling fans are coated with heavy dust, beware when you turn them on. This house has so many positives that I hate to see it become less than the lovely home that it was. Tastefully decorated without clutter with high end furniture. Please take this as constructive criticism so we can return . I believe this residential area is the best on the island.

My girlfriends and I enjoy our stay at a Shore Thing. We now come for 2 weeks because after 1 week we didn't want to leave. Coffee on the treehouse porch watching the sun rise is my favorite part. The kitchen is very well equipped and we are very comfortable on all the furniture and beds. We love our vacation at a Shore Thing!

Reviewer Comments:
Previously stayed at property in 2017. Our stay was not as good as in 2017. We booked the house from Sunday to Sunday. One of the reasons we rent the house is because of the screened in porch. There must be small holes in the screening of the porch because as the week went on we stopped sitting outside due to the mosquitos. Also, the people renting the house called Island Girl (which is three houses down and managed by Chincoteague Resort Realty) were loud all week making noise, playing music, and singing. I called Chincoteague Resort Realty to report this on Friday, as I was originally tempted to call the police and should have called the realty company earlier in the week to report this. The realty company listened to my concerns and the people at the Island Girl house were quiet the last night of their stay. Also, we found the house overly humid and clothing and towels took a long time to dry. In terms of cleaning, the floors in the house are very dirty as found when we went around barefoot in the house. Finally, the screen on the screen door was torn and should have been fixed prior to our arrival.

The house was beautiful and was very well equipped for our stay. We absolutely loved the screened-in porch and the beautiful views. The house was very comfortable. I liked that there were 2 bedrooms with king beds. The location was in a nice peaceful residential area, about 2 miles from the bridge. We had great crabbing from the sea wall, and saw lots of birds nearby. Overall, it was a great place for our vacation!

Great location off of the beaten path and quiet but close enough to easily get to local attractions. Very comfortable home, great view of the water (Oyster Bay), and the large screened-in porch is great for gatherings.

Wonderful Getaway
This property was lovely, clean and nestled in the trees. We were two families with teenagers who biked, kayaked/paddleboarded and went to the beach in the afternoon when the crowds were leaving. The kitchen was well appointed and the screened in porch was an oasis! Check-in and out was easy. Unfortunately we were unable to secure a full week. But we had a lot of fun.
We noted that we had to bring linens but did not realize that meant blankets and kitchen towels as well as sheets and bath towels. It would have been great if the rental provided garbage bags as well.
