Charming Cottage - Ultimate Relaxation Destination

I enjoyed Sea Glass Cottage as a vacation rental SO much.... I bought it! You can still enjoy all it's charms and convenient location too.
Onancock is central to all the exciting sights, sounds, and recreation on the Eastern Shore between the historic and scenic Chesapeake Bay and the Ocean. Beaches, boating, kayaking, biking, hiking, wildlife and some of the nations best birdwatching, golf and much much more all at your fingertips! Onancock itself is a delightful small village of interesting and eclectic attractions - excellent restaurants and watering holes, first rate galleries, a wonderful farmers market on Saturdays, old fashioned movie theater with first run movies, live performance venues and so much more. There's a passenger ferry to Tangier at the town wharf for exciting adventures on the bay. Rent bikes and kayaks too. A short trip north takes you to the outstanding beaches and wild pony adventures to be had at Chincoteague and Assateague islands among other nearby destinations. You're going to love it.

The house was as cute as can be. Stream behind property with chairs and fire pit is a big bonus. I loved the claw foot tub with pillow - decadent. Definitely on our Do Again list.

Great house and friendly neighbors!

Sea Glass is a wonderful place to stay in Onancock. Very close to downtown and all the fun with art galleries, great restaurants, and bars. My wife and I highly recommend Sea Glass. Best WI-FI and fully stocked kitchen. Very clean and well maintained home. We are already planning our next visit!

Second time as good as the first

We stayed here for a week this time, after a 3 night visit a few months back. Lovely cottage in a very cute town that is centrally located for daytrips all over the Eastern Shore of VA. Beautifully decorated cottage, very easy logistics, and good communication from the property owner, Julie. We look forward to future visits.

Amazing House, Great Location

My friend were doing a girl's trip and needed a place near the Tangier Island ferry. We got so much more! This house is in a great location...3 minutes from the ferry and restaurants and Walmart! All of which we needed! We couldn't have asked for a better place to stay! Doris was amazing to work with as well! Thank you, Doris!

Great!

We had a great time at the cottage. There was plenty of room for two adults and two teenagers. The well-stocked kitchen was a pleasant surprise. We enjoyed picking mulberries and the kids had fun at the fire pit. We walked around the town, got some delicious donuts, and checked out a few of the restaurants. We spent our days kayaking, fishing, exploring sand dunes, swimming in the bay and at Assateague beach, hiking, and petting ponies and alpacas up in Chincoteague. We will definitely be back. PS- We had fun watching the cats and kittens next-door, but they all ran from us. There had to be 10 kittens, and a handful of adult cats.We tried to befriend the old deaf one. He like to sleep under my car, but he ran too. He did come back when we put down tuna.

Location of the house is disappointing

The interior of the house is quite charming, but the house is nestled very close in between two other houses, resulting in no privacy. From the kitchen window, you have to view the neighbor's backyard full of trash and discarded items. If I wanted to be so close to neighbors, I would have rented a Shore house. The owner should be more upfront about her house being located so close to her neighbors'. One of the neighbors is obviously upset with the house being rented as he made sure to park his car so close to ours that my husband had to climb through the passenger side to get into our vehicle. Very disappointing as when you drive through the area, you see all the other houses with large side yards and lots of privacy.

Relaxing getaway

The cottage is beautifully decorated, including a lot of original artwork. Much care and thought has clearly gone into making this as pleasant and comfortable as possible. Plenty of living space and a fully equipped kitchen which I didn't use (except for coffee) since there are several terrific restaurants nearby. Onancock is a sweet little town with plenty to see, including a fascinating historical walking tour. Some of the shops and galleries had shortened hours because of the pandemic, and some of the restaurants as well. As long as that is a factor, it's good to call ahead if you want to be sure a place will be open. Owner has a binder of information in the front room with recommendations of things to do and see and restaurants to try, and I wasn't there long enough to exhaust those lists! It's an easy drive north to Assateague or south to Cape Charles to get additional perspectives on the Eastern Shore. Owner is very responsive, and can also provide additional recommendations or ideas. I had a terrific week, and will definitely be back -- hopefully for longer next time! Thanks, Doris!

Lovely little house

We just stayed two nights in this cute little house. Everything was adorable, tastefully decorated in a shabby sheik, well thought out style. Our only complaint would be the bathing. We were not a young group, therefore we were unable to use the shower in the clawfoot tub. There was nothing to hold on to when you climb into the tub/shower. Only one of our group were able to shower!Also, the railing going down the back cement steps was not stable, and one of our party almost fell going back in when the railing bent out of the ground and pulled away from the wall at the top. Fortunately, his wife was right behind him and was able to avert what could have been a bad fall! This really should be addressed,

Historic Garden Tour

We had an absolutely beautiful weekend at the charming Sea Glass Cottage. We were in the area for the VA Eastern Shore historic garden tour. The cottage is so lovely. The pictures do not really do it justice. We loved the balance of antiques and comfort. The beds are so comfortable. Doris provided everything that we needed. I would definitely stay here again.

A gem in a little town

My husband and I chose this destination as a little getaway. The space was a perfect way to relax and leave everyday cares behind. While Onancock is a little town, it it chock full of different things to do. There are many galleries to explore. There are diverse dining opportunities. If you prefer to explore the surrounding area, there are options within a half hour drive in any direction. The Sea Glass Cottage is a very clean and quiet space. It is well stocked with all of the amenities of a hotel and more. There is a fully stocked(equipment, utensils, spices, etc.) kitchen as well as a fire pit and BBQ grill. There are magazines, board games and a Roku TV if you just want to relax. The property owner, Doris, is very attentive and will communicate what her expectations are as well as what she offers to fulfill your expectations. My husband and I are already working on another trip to fit in those things we could not in this stay.
