Pony Paradise - Gaze at Ponies, Walk to the Carnival, and bring your family dog!
Are you all about ponies in paradise? If so, you will love comfy and cozy ‘Pony Paradise’ in the very heart of Chincoteague Island! Formerly ever-popular ‘Sunshine and Daydreams’, this Seaside Vacations’ fan-favorite is under New Ownership, and y’all are going to LOVE what they’ve done with the place! This adorable 3 Bedroom/2 Full Bath Cottage is located on Willow Street, just across from where our famous Wild Ponies are penned at the Carnival Grounds. Stroll to the Carnival weekends in July, the Historic Downtown District to shops and dining, or just skip across the street with your morning coffee to watch the ponies graze. What makes vacationing at Pony Paradise even more fun? You get to bring your favorite pup along with a $100 pet fee (Limit 2)! Your pup will especially appreciate the Fully Fenced-in yard for him to play safely in!
Pony Paradise has packed a lot of bang into your vacation buck. As you enter through the Screened Front Porch, you’re already thinking you’ll never want to leave. Just imagine curling up here with a good book and taking in that salty, sweet bay bay breeze. Watch the Ponies grazing just across the Street, and you can even enjoy your 4th of July Fireworks right from your Screened Porch!
Upon entering Pony Paradise, you’ll be warmly welcomed by serene Colors of Sand and Sea - just breathtaking. With gorgeous flooring reminiscent of a stroll on the Boardwalk and bright and beachy furnishings, you may never want to leave. There’s even a cozy Fireplace for those chilly off-season stays - one of our very favorite times on our Island. You’ll love relaxing after a fun-filled day exploring Assateague in the Living Area with Free WiFi and Flat Screen Streaming TV. There’s plenty of room for all to stretch out, yet still be together.
The Chef in your family will love the spacious Eat-in Kitchen with both a Breakfast Bar and Dining Table. Well-stocked with all you need - even a Waffle Maker - mealtime will be no chore. You can grill the Fresh Catch of the Day - which hopefully you caught - out back, while listening to the Tree Frogs sing. Dine indoors in the comfort of the AC, or wander to one of many great Restaurants nearby. After dinner, slip out to the back Deck to take in that salty, sweet sea breeze, or gather around the fire pit in the backyard and share stories of the day’s adventures. The spacious yard has two sections, with one that is fenced-in, making it just perfect for your furbaby to get some much needed exercise.
Pony Paradise sleeps 7 in total comfort and style. The Master Bedroom, with a Queen Bed, is dressed in beach blues and crisp whites. The Private Master Bath has a huge Vanity and Walk-in Shower. Down the Hall, Bedroom 2 has a Full Bed and is inviting with cheerful Lime and Vanilla - just like a piece of Key Lime Pie. Bedroom 3 is perfect for the kiddos with Twin Bunk Beds and sleeps 2. A Roll-a-way Twin Bed is available for the 7th member of your family. A 2nd Full Bath with a Tub/Shower Combo is shared. And while no one likes doing laundry while on vacation, the Full Size Washer and Dryer will sure come in handy.
LINENS NOT INCLUDED, BUT LINEN RENTAL IS AVAILABLE.
Friendly dogs welcome with $100 Pet Fee. Max 2 Dogs with Permission. Dogs MUST be current on Flea/Tick Preventative and Immunizations. No Cats.

We had a fantastic time. Watch out for the mosquitoes, they were hungry. But the house and location are perfect. Close enough to everything, but far enough to not hear any noise. Thanks again!
It was nice, quiet, the house had plenty of room the only thing is the TV was a little frustrating to operate.

Thanks so much for choosing to stay with us, Helen! We appreciate the feedback regarding the TV and will see if we can get some instructions put together to assist with that in the future! We hope to have you back soon!
Clean kitchen, bathrooms, and living areas. Use of household amenities was very convenient. Had some trouble with one of the neighbors persisting we allow our dog to play with his dog, which based on the dog's behavior we kindly declined multiple times. Other than than location was great, screened in porch was fantastic... happy to have been there all together (doggo included) on vacation.

Hi Sara – thank you for your review! We’re so glad you enjoyed the clean and comfortable spaces, convenient amenities, and the screened-in porch at Pony Paradise. I’m sorry to hear about the neighbor situation, but I’m happy your family (and pup!) still had a great vacation together. We’d love to welcome you back anytime! – Julia
We had a really lovely stay at Pony Paradise. Clean, comfortable, cozy. House comes with a linen package and I’m always weary of the sheets/towels a place offers but theirs were really nice! I will say that the beds are quite small but we made do for our short stay. Check in time at 4pm is rough- even a 3pm would be helpful but again, you make it work. Overall, the place itself was great and I would definitely rebook! The property management was easy to get in touch with and responsive/professional. Nice to have such a comfortable option for a short term stay, especially with little ones! Huge back yard, screened in porch was great, close to everything!
