There were two issues this year that I hope will be addressed for 2023. They dishwasher wouldn't close and couldn't be used. It was not properly installed and has gotten worse each year. Also, the cold water valve in the outdoor shower is frozen and wasn't fixed during our stay. A missing pipe plug was replaced so the water could go through the shower head. We would have preferred that the dishwasher be replaced during our stay but there were issues with contractor.

Reviewer Comments: Sandy Moose was a great place to stay and enjoy Chincoteague. Loved the furniture/decorations and screened in sunporch. Only thing to tweak would be the front door, which stuck a lot - needed a major shove to open, or close.

I fell in love with Chincoteague years ago and always wanted to visit for more than a day so I invited my son and family for a weeks vacation! We relished each tranquil day gathering on the screened in back porch visiting and enjoying the backyard wildlife. It was the perfect spot to entertain my 2.5 year old granddaughter!! Hope to make this an annual event.

Came down and checked in mid week. Was nice to find a property that allowed a Wed-Wed stay, as to avoid holiday traffic. Property was in a great location, quiet neighborhood. Tile flooring could use an overhaul and front door lock needs replacing. Maintenance men showed up to replace air filters and we were not notified. Had I not gone to the door, they were going to come in. They thought our car was the cleaning crew. Lawncare service showed up before 8a on Monday, which was Memorial Day, and woke us up. Communication from the rental company would have been appreciated. Other than that, nice property and would stay there again if we decide to return.

Clean, well stocked, comfortable beds, great game console, plenty of seating, large and well organized kitchen (all the small appliances you needed including 2 coffee makers).The screened porch was beautiful but the patio furniture wasn't very comfortable. The wonderful view of the pond and birds made up for the furniture. The driveway is single laned as we all drove from different states in different cars there was a lot of juggling cars whenever anyone went out. A side parking area or turnaround would have been nice.Great stay would definitely go again.

The screened in porch was a haven for morning yoga and afternoon coffee. The floor-plan offered and easy fellowship privacy of the master bedroom. Quiet lot and street were another bonus.

We loved this house and had a wonderful week. The house is very comfortable. I would warn about 2 very minor things: 1. The AC doesn't work great. We were comfortable but needed fans. 2. The king bed was a very hard mattress and I ended up sleeping in the room with the twin beds instead because I have back and neck problems. Neither of these should dissuade anyone from renting but are just things I would have wanted to know ahead of time. Overall we loved the house and would definitely recommend it.

Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: Sandy Moose has a well-stocked kitchen and plenty on entertainment in the home for rainy days or after-beach hours. I was pleasantly surprised with the number of kid things in the home and loved that there were a couple of stools available so my little guy could reach the bathroom sinks. The mattresses were really comfortable and we appreciated the ceiling fans throughout the home and on the screened porch. We found that on the really hot days (over 90F) we needed to turn the AC up to around 75F mid-day to prevent it freezing up. Overall, we were really happy to be at Sandy Moose and back in Chincoteague after several years away.

Plenty of space, great location. Property was well-maintained. Loved the screened in back porch and space for the whole family

Great place. Clean and comfy. Video "console" was a hit with the boys. Screened in porch and our various wildlife neighbors were a treat. Only 2 things I would improve = more adequate lighting in the kitchen for cooking and remove the foil in the bottom of the oven (covering the heating elements and does not allow even and proper cooking).

The weather was great and Chincoteague, as always, was very enjoyable.

Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: We were pleased with our experience in renting the Sandy Moose, located on a small lagoon that attracted many water birds like egrets, geese, ducks and many more that we looked up in the bird guides under the coffee table. We enjoyed sitting on the back porch in mornings to soak up the early sun from the east. We were pleased to find all the cooking tools needed because we enjoy home cooked meals. There were also plenty of books, videos, and TV's to keep us entertained when we were not in the Assateague Park which is just a five minute ride away. The five days we stayed are not enough to take full advantage of what this house, Chincoteague and Assateague have to offer. I think a full month might be better.

We enjoyed our first visit to Chincoteague and having a nice place to stay was a plus. The house had everything you needed. Plenty of kitchen items, books, games and puzzles for the kids, movies, etc. We practically lived on the screened-in porch. My husband, his sister and I were there mainly for birdwatching and nature. This location was perfect for that. So many birds including a pair of great-horned owls who visited the trees in the immediate area. We could hear them vocalizing almost every night and managed to find them a few times. Also had some deer that occasionally stopped by in the backyard. My husband would put birdseed on the deck railing to attract the birds but we also had a raccoon that showed up every night to finish off the seed. We were very happy with our week stay at the Sandy Moose!

My husband and I stayed at Sandy Moose for a week. It’s our first time vacationing at Chincoteague. We enjoyed everything that Sandy Moose had to offer: a quite neighborhood but also a few minutes away from the park and everything else, master suite is ideally located away from other two bedrooms with comfortable king size bed, nice screened deck (the swinging chair is my favorite) for morning coffee and afternoon reading, plenty books and games at the house for everyone to enjoy. This was a worry-free and very relaxing vacation. We rented bikes, beach chairs and umbrella at Bike Depot, convenient location and good service. We enjoyed hiking, biking, relaxing at the beach. Thank you for sharing the Sandy Moose with us. We will definitely come back!

I'm glad that it lived up to previous reviews. Our daughters declared the Sandy Moose as their new "happy place". They enjoyed the arcade-style video games and the hammock chair on the back porch. We all loved watching the birds swooping on the lake. My husband and I liked having our master on the opposite side of the house and partitioned away. If you're a bedtime book reader, you might find the minimal bedroom lighting (all bedrooms) to be a challenge. The Sandy Moose is in a good location. Don't miss going to Assateague to see the wild horses and spend time on the beach. It was easy to distance ourselves on the beach, during the pandemic. Remember to bring effective mosquito repellent.

Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: The Sandy Moose is a second home to me. Plenty of space for a family of 4-5. I stayed there alone for work for most of my visit. My family was able to come see me for a week, and they loved the house. Driveway is narrow, so learn to reverse a trailer before coming if you bring your boat. The area is quiet, with only the occasional lost tourists during the busy season. The view from the living room is amazing. Wall to wall glass from the dining area, to the fireplace. It's not on the bay, but there is a pond providing plenty of relaxing looks at wildlife such as geese, ducks, sea fowl, and in the summer, deer. The rear deck is nicely screened to prevent intrusion of the VA state birds, with ceiling fans for comfort. The pictures need to be updated, as there is now additional seating in the livingroom, and a 55" television. The arcade was a big hit with all the guests, providing retro games from comadore64 all the way to playstation. Beds are comfy, linens were plentiful, as well as towels. All necessary dishes, pans, etc are there. Apliances are nice. They include, large microwave, glasstop range with oven, toaster oven (perfect for reheating pizza) ample fridge storage, coffee maker, blender, etc. The finishes in the home are classy. No cheap materials in the kitchen, nice quarts countertops, recessed sink, tile floors. Hardwood laminate throughout the rest of the house for easy cleaning. The utility closet has all the essentials for an extended stay, including a small vacuum that makes tidying up the floor easy. The management company is great, keeping grounds maintained, and attentive to requests. Overall, there was no better value than the Sandy Moose.

Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: So, I could write this review in one sentence which says it all. I would rent this property again and to be honest I don't often feel that way. The property has such a peacefulness and openness about it. The pics don't really give you the feeling that sitting on the porch and looking at the water gives 's nearly perfect. I spend a lot of time trying to pick the perfect place as I've rented many many a beach house in my day. The porch is fantastic and frankly that is the most important part of any house as I just enjoy sitting and chilling. Esp. in both the morning and night. The other surprise was the inside had a bright feeling(kitchen renovated) and I also cook on vacation so that is a help-to have somewhere pleasant to cook. We came with another couple and they too were in love with the place! The only down side for me was the bed in the master was too soft. But that happens nearly everywhere. Not sure why someone wants a soft mattress but that's just personal I guess. Only reasons for 4 stars and not 5. At any rate, I highly recommend this place. It was just lovely. BTW, the front porch is also much bigger than the picture reads. Is it necessary? No, but I love porches. Add a ceiling fan on the front porch then I'd be sitting there to. OH one more nice detail. The master bed and bath are on one side of the house and the other two on the other side with a large space dividing the sleeping areas. It has a very separate feeling which is nice if you're traveling with other adults. Again, you kinda gotta see the space to know what I mean. Pics don't do it justice. Funny, bc often it's the other way around. Meaning pics look great but doesn't match up to reality. Lastly, which maybe should have put this first- the bird viewing is incredible. I had no idea. I don't consider myself a bird person type but that place changed that for me and I'm not overstating I don't think so. Enough! Great place.
