About this house rental

Eagle's View, our 4 bedroom, 3.5 bath waterfront house faces the Assateague Channel with a stunning view of Assateague Island, the gorgeous Assateague Lighthouse and wildlife refuge. There are three levels of waterfront outdoor living with our private lighted dock, screened porch, open-air deck and third floor intimate balcony. Adirondack chairs and dining table sets provide plenty of seating for your delicious fresh seafood feasts; a glider on the dock for relaxing and dreaming; a steel-framed hammock on the screened porch is ideal for reading and snoozing! The bright and spacious great room with soaring ceiling overlooks the water and marshes, with the refuge and lighthouse as a backdrop. Two queen master bedroom suites make the home perfect for multi-generational guests. The third floor loft (with water view) is a wonderful respite for kids with their own TV, VCR and DVD library plus board games and puzzles. From the loft a hallway leads to two more bedrooms (two twins in each) and a large shared bath. The nautically-themed bedroom has terrific water views down the Channel to the Ocean Inlet. A dramatic catwalk from the loft leads you to a waterfront balcony where you will enjoy the spectacular view.

The kitchen is fully equipped to provide for all cooking needs with everything from coffee bean grinder, ice cream maker, Kitchenaid mixer to stainless steel crab steamer. We also provide crabbing equipment. The laundry with front-loading washer and dryer is conveniently located near the master bedrooms. There is a powder room off the great room. Master bedrooms have TVs; 2 flat screen TVs are also in the sitting rooms. WIFI throughout. We enjoy watching the wild ponies grazing below the lighthouse, as well as star-gazing and bird-watching, so we provide our guests with the use of our scope.

Relax on the glider on our dock and gaze at the lighthouse, or lose yourself in a good book! Our deck seats 10 to 12 for great seafood dinners off the gas grill, out of the crab steamer or carried out from the many great seafood eateries. Our plentiful video/DVD library provides hours of movie viewing while snuggled up with loved ones on the two couches in the great room. Greet the mornings while watching the sunrise over Assateague Island; you will see and hear the marshes come alive with marsh birds, herons, egrets, turtles, etc. Glimpse the occasional bald eagle soaring overhead, on the way to his/her nest on Assateague. Photograph wading birds and water fowl right from our deck. Vacations at Eagle's View in spring and fall provide the opportunity to view many more species of birds as they travel on the Atlantic Migratory Flyway over Assateague and Chincoteague. When the snow geese fly overhead in late fall, it will take your breath away! End your day with a late evening glass of wine on the deck or balcony and listen for the occasional owl hooting, whippoorwill call or pony whinnying across the Channel. Be mesmerized by the sound of the crashing surf on the Atlantic beachfront!

We have decorated Eagle's View with art from local artists, our photographs, decoys, nautical maps and real antique anchors, to add to the seaside feeling. Our collection of antiques includes oyster plates, faux scrimshaw, shells, decoys and nautical memorabilia. The furnishings are high-quality but comfortable and inviting, making our guests feel welcomed and relaxed in a bright and airy setting.

The quiet location on Little Piney Island, on the Eastside of Chincoteague Island is private yet not remote. We are close to everything! Bike to Main Street or Maddox Blvd. for shops, restaurants, the Island Creamery, the Sea Star Cafe for great sandwiches, carry-out food shops, miniature golf, bumper boats, etc., or to visit the two museums on the way to Assateague. There are no through streets and no commerce on our little island-neighborhood, so there is safe biking for little ones and walking for all. The almost constant ocean breeze is a refreshing delight which really deters the mosquitos. This Eastside location is ideal to access:
~ the bridge to Assateague
~the Wildlife Refuge
~the Visitor Centers
~the Atlantic Ocean beachfront
~restaurants and shops
~kayaking
~fishing, tennis and the playground at Memorial Park
~public boat ramps
~bike, scooter and kayak rentals
~kayaking down the Channel to Etta's Restaurant for dinner
~great photo opportunities of the Lighthouse and water birds
~birdwatching


Keywords: Waterfront home with fantastic views of the Assateague Channel, Lighthouse and Wildlife Refuge.

There are only so many properties that have an unobstructed view of the lighthouse across the inlet and marsh, and this is one of them. Included in that view are all sorts of wildlife visible from the house and dock - birds, fish, crabs, turtles, rays, as well as, at a distance, dolphins and of course the ponies. The location of the house makes it quick and easy to get into town and out to the beach. One expectation-setting thing to note is the main exterior photo in the listing, from the dock back to the house, is rather dated - it was evidently taken before the houses right on either side of this one were built. So be aware there are next door neighbors after all. Issues noted in past reviews including cookware and seating have been addressed. The bedrooms were all comfortable and cozy. AC worked well (good thing since it was a HOT week); wifi was on and off but evidently that's a common Spectrum issue on the island. We enjoyed and appreciated the owner's welcome gift - an ice cream cake from Island Creamery. There were a few maintenance issues during the week that didn't get resolved before we left. We rolled with it. There are signs all over the place with various rules. They detracted a bit from the hominess but not really an issue; I assume it's because they've had some careless renters in the past, unfortunately.

Amazing location. You won’t get bored in this place. Even if you decide to stay at home and just chill, you will have spectacular view from the backyard. Definitely, will go back to this place. Last not the least, great host.

Home was beautiful, perfectly clean, beautiful views, well stocked kitchen, ample parking, no real complaints. Deborah was very easy to communicate with and always available. Chincoteague is just as we remembered it from many years ago. Lovely.

My husband, my daughter, her husband and I stayed at Eagle’s View for a long weekend, and we all had a wonderful time! So nice that each couple had our own bed/bath suites, plus half bath off the living room. And what a great place for kids—2 BRs, another bath, playroom upstairs! The kitchen was wonderfully equipped—we cooked breakfasts and a seafood dinner easily. The deck was lovely in the morning, with a fantastic view of the lighthouse, boats, birds, the marsh—a beautiful place to enjoy a coffee and watch nature awake. In the evening, you can see the lighthouse flashing, and the sunsets are spectacular. We had much fun at the dock crabbing, watching birds and turtles. Easy, nearby access to the wonderful beach of Assateague. Easy walk to Chincoteague Island Adventures for a fun, informative boat tour and close ups of ponies! Chincoteague Outfitters are also nearby, help launch kayaks, paddle boards within walking distance from the house. Chincoteague is a fun, friendly, small town with lots of interesting places to visit and great restaurants. Eagle’s View was well-equipped with needed supplies and even provided a telescope and binoculars for viewing the ponies from the deck, also games, puzzles, movies (Misty of the Chincoteague!), plenty of chairs, tables on the deck and lower level screen porch, comfortable chairs, sofas. The beds were very comfortable. Overall a great value. The host was very helpful, quick to respond. We can’t wait to return!

We had several family members staying on the island for the 50th Anniversary of the Oyster festival and we have out grown the family home so 6 of us adults stayed for the weekend. The house has great space and was very clean. I really appreciated that the kitchen was thoughtfully stocked with plenty of kitchen tools and everything needed to prepare and serve family dinners including great space indoors and out for dining. The outdoor seating was clean and plentiful and we especially loved the seating on the dock. Like some other guest comments, I hope you will consider replacing the cookware which is really scratched and worn and the small sofas are clean but so worn. I think both of these things would make a great experience exceptional. I did not mind bringing sheets and towels and appreciated the reminder from the property manager. Thanks for a great experience and a terrific home. Much appreciated.

Well appointed home with fantastic views, dock, birds, crabs and a great view of the lighthouse. Very clean and comfortable with a seamless checkin/out process. The local seafood restaurants are terrific and the natural beauty of the area is certainly worth returning to. We would highly recommend.

Perfect view of the chincoteague lighthouse. Light of the moon and the lighthouse reflects on the high tidal waters. Quiet.
