Great for a getaway!

Great place on the water. We caught enough crabs off the dock to have dinner. Relaxing place to take the family and enjoy the seaside. I wish we had more time to enjoy.

Great place

All of my critiques are first world problems and not worth mentioning. Great place. Great view. Great location. Friendly neighbors. Nicely located about halfway between VA and MD assateague island. If you have a mobile infant/toddler, a pack and play blocks the spiral staircase perfectly. Will be staying again.

Peaceful

This is a very peaceful place to stay. It's quiet, but still close enough to things to do all within an hours drive. Ocean City is about a 40-45 minute drive, Assateague, MD to see the ponies on the beach is about 35-40 minutes. Assateague, VA and Chincoteague are 30-35, Wollops NASA station is 15-20 minutes. It overlooks Chincoteague Bay and the island of Chincoteague. My husband and i would definitely stay there again. Alms is you like seafood, that is one of the best areas for it. Definitely get some blue crab while you're there, so yummy!

Property was slightly run down and had no driveway (just grass). It was in a great neighborhood with a beautiful view. We had to take the trash 15 minutes south when leaving (in the opposite direction of home for us). It was good enough for us to relax and cook but a slight bit expensive for its outdated condition though.

All about the view and wonderful neighbors

Had an Awsome 8 days , views were amazing from just about everywhere in the house. Fishing was good from dock, crabbing was slow, a little late in the season. Beds were comfortable, and the kitchen had everything we needed. The restaurant just down the street had very good food, especially the fish tacos. No issues at all during our stay. Beautiful club house, indoor pool and golf course.

Best of Captains Cove

Impressive bay side views. You can’t be more waterfront than this. And there are multiple vacant lots around the property so it feels very private. The breeze was amazing. If you have the chance to rent here do not hesitate. A tip, bring your own food. The marina restaurant doesn’t provide take-out, The grocery is a 2.0 minute drive so stop prior.

Purple Door Stay

Property has a great view of the water across to Chicateague. I could have sat on the deck looking at that view all day but the heat wouldn’t let me. Way too hot outside. Kelly was tremendous answering any concern. Only negative is if you want to go to Chicateague it is a 30 minute drive.
