About this property

Charming bungalow on the bay behind Chincoteague

This memorable place is anything but ordinary. Small bay bungalow tiny house/ camper on private lot in gated community. Access to community pool, crabbing pier, and marina. 20 minute drive to the town of Chincoteague and 30 minutes from the Assateague island beach. Bring your boat if you would like, launch from the marina and be on the water in minutes. Within eyesight of Wallops island so the whole community comes out to watch the rocket launches.
The space
This is a rv with an addition and a covered porch. Comfortably sleeps 3 but can fit up to 5. There is one private bedroom with two twin beds and a privacy curtain. There are also 3 futons for sleeping, one in the rv and two in the living room of the addition. There is plenty of room in the yard to pitch a tent if so desired, also plenty of trees to hang a hammock. There is a bathroom in the rv but it is for emergencies only, there is a public bathouse 50 feet behind the property and another at the clubhouse which is about 100 hundred yards down the street. Linens and towels are not provided and you must bring your own. There is a beautiful new coin operated laundry/bath house near the front of the community.
Guest access
Off street parking on property for 1-2 vehicles. 24 hour security with a manned gate.

The bungalow is super cute and charming and exceeded my expectations. Josh is an excellent host and I would book this property again! Check in and check out was really easy and he gave good communication throughout the whole process. The bungalow was very maintained and a super fun place to glamp for a week for a little surf trip. :) We had no issues with the property and everything went well. The bathhouse was very easy to find and was open 24/7. The bathrooms were very clean and well maintained. These were cleanest campground bath rooms I’ve ever seen. My dog was 100% comfortable here. We enjoyed every minute of it. Had the best time and will be back! :)

I'm sorry the property didn't meet your expectations. I spent more time on the phone with you, at your request, both before and during your stay them I have with any other guest describing both the property and the surrounding area. You didn't express any level of dissatisfaction until a day or two before the end of your stay when I called you at your request with check out instructions. I asked you to send me pictures of what you were unhappy with and you sent me pictures of a stray cobweb that was missed in the corner of the ceiling, some dust on the ceiling fan blade, dust on the top of a storage tote hidden from guests, an ant trap behind the fridge (you falsely claimed it was a mouse trap and you were afaraid a mouse was in there), and a bookshelf that wasn't organized the way you thought it should be. In reference to your junkyard comment I'm sure you are referring to the stainless steel sink in the grill area that hasn't been hooked up yet and some building materials on the side of the trailer where guests wouldn't normally be. You also complained about some stray pine needles on the porch...I would politely suggest you adjust your expectations in the future before thinking about booking an RV/cabin in a campground.

Lots of Potential

Overall, this was a pleasant place to stay for the evening. The community was extremely cute, and we enjoyed walking our dogs around the property. There were a few issues that could easily be fixed. The bathrooms that were closest to the property were locked, and we had trouble finding ones that were open. (We arrived after dark.) Also, because we came in after dark, it was difficult to get into the house. There weren't any lights, and the community is very dark. Adding some sort of small light on the porch to greet guests would be great. This property would definitely appeal to someone who enjoys camping! Great setting!

Apologies for the bathroom issue, property maintenance/management locked that bathroom temporarily for repairs. The next closest bathroom is at the clubhouse which is less than a hundred yards away. There are porch lights but late check ins aren't typical and I'm not on location so that can be difficult to arrange. Thanks for choosing my place.

Josh was an awesome host from start to finish. Very communicative and answered questions in a timely fashion. The outside setup was excellent and we had a blast outside. We found out the day before that there was no hot water, The oven and stove top did not work, and the toaster convection oven, when we tried to use it smelled like rotting fish and it was not usable. The inside was not clean, which made for the first few hours of our vacation US cleaning, because we have to have it clean, especially in the kitchen, as we cook a lot.Host let me know that he was going to be getting Wi-Fi, we didn't mind to disconnect but it would be nice if it was advertised that there was no Wi-Fi.Pool was very clean. The rates for use were awesome. Heads up, when you buy a pool pass you're paying per day. So if you're going to be there for a week but you're only going to go four times. Keep that in mind. With a few things fixed like the hot water, the oven, stove and the convection oven and a deep clean. This place would be an amazing find. I very much liked working with Josh as a host, we had a great time overall, thank you!

Thanks for the review Brittany. Glad you you had a great time overall. Sorry about the confusion but we did speak a few days before your stay about the hot water issue in the trailer and you said it wouldn't be an issue since hot water is readily available in the bathhouses nearby. Unfortunately with it being an older property/ rv in a rural area it can be difficult to find parts or someone to repair it on short notice. The stove top inside the trailer actually does work, it is just the propane oven that does not work which is why we place the electric one in there. We also spoke about how there are two large electric skillets available in the kitchen and a large outdoor grill for cooking. We are sorry about the apparent smell of the toaster oven, nothing was noticeable when I left the property but I will look into that. In regards to the cleanliness issue the older gray flooring and it being an older property surrounded by trees and sand can make it appear dirtier than it actually is, I can assure you that it is regularly cleaned. I spent several hours myself cleaning the property before your arrival including mopping the floors, cleaning the refrigerator, cleaning the bathroom and the kitchen, vacuuming all the rugs, washing all the furniture covers and sheets, installing brand new curtains, and installing brand new 12,000 BTU air conditioning unit. We are doing our best to update/renovate the property as we go in order to provide the best experience for our guests. In regards to the Wi-Fi, connection can be difficult in that rural area but starlink recently became available and will be installed soon but in the meantime there was Wi-Fi available at the pool and the clubhouse along with the ability to connect a phone hotspot to the LG Smart TV to get over 200 plus channels. There's also a large collection of DVDs and books which we did speak about. I appreciate the communication and the review and look forward to hosting you again.
