A Gem By The Sea for your family. (New Housekeeping Service)

We had a great time, it was one of the most relaxing vacations we've had. The house was so clean and comfortable especially the beds. We've already recommend the house to our family and friends and plan on coming back again

Great home in a nice, quiet part of the island! So nice to be able to be out of the hustle during Pony Penning, but still close enough to surrounding attractions (Beebe Ranch and Pony Swim Lane for the swim). The home is cozy and the porch is great for relaxing and taking in the sunset and island breeze. Checkin and checkout were flawless. It was so nice to have a fully stocked kitchen and outside grill. Both bathrooms are beautifully done. The layout of the home is great, and the living room is large enough to have each others' own space to have down time. The owners are very kind and really make you feel like family! Thanks for making our stay for 2025 Pony Penning Week a reality for my sister and I.

Was easy to get to with a amazing porch view of the sunset nice and clean we had a amazing family trip owners are very nice people

Very nice property and home. Great host who communicated everything we needed to know and do. Lovely home that is warm and welcoming.

It was a nice clean place, very well stocked kitchen.

It was a very nice place to us stay! A great place to just relax n enjoy!! We loved the outdoor fire ring!!! N nice cool ac!!! It’s very nice n close to everything on the island!!!

My wife, Connie, loves Chincoteague. It makes her happy to go to the beach, bike, walk, visit the shops and generally enjoy the Island. Her family used to have a vacation home there when she was a child. They went there frequently. Tim and Julie are wonderful hosts. We've stayed at their place before. Hope you find your happy place too. .

The reason that I couldn’t give all 5 stars is purely due to the cleanliness or lack thereof. It is not the owners’ fault that they trusted a cleaner who never showed up, but it was so unbelievably gross. There were vapes left where my children were sleeping, sticky food and crumbs on the kitchen floor, dirty socks and soiled underwear left around the house, hair on all surfaces, crusty sand left in the tubs, and so on. There was also a faint cigarette smell inside the home. I am severely allergic to cigarettes which is why I’m so sensitive but it smelled like someone had smoked in the home in the past or a smoker who had their clothes around smoke was in the home. It was wicked gross. All in all, their cleaner absolutely scammed and took advantage of them, knowing that they live 200 miles from the property. Other than that, despite it being a big issue, I can’t emphasize enough that it wasn’t the owners’ fault and I hope they take this as a sign to get a new cleaner! The home owners are both very helpful, informative, and accommodating with absolutely everything and were so sympathetic and apologetic when I told them about the state of the house. They seem like good people who got taken advantage of. The homeowners are VERY kind and really want you to have the best stay ever. The home is spacious and the neighborhood is lovely and safe.

Everything was great! Tim was very friendly, approachable, available, and informative, answering many questions, including some about the best fishing setup to use and where to do some pier fishing. Beds and couches were comfy, and all the appliances were in very good condition. Neighborhood is very quiet (except for various birds sometimes.) Good spot for stargazing, no light pollution. Lawn was cut perfectly for bocce. Bedrooms at opposite ends allowed us to put morning birds on one end and night owls on the other, each end with its own bathroom, so no one woke anyone trying to sleep. Screened porch was nice, our sunset-watching days were not interrupted by bugs. The kitchen was well stocked with pans; the gas stove was working perfectly and heated things quickly. (We didn't get a chance to use the grill, it was hot out!) Furniture is attractive and sturdy. AC and hot water were 100% responsive. You feel like you're actually in a home, not just a rental. Hope to return in an upcoming summer!

Overall, the place was nice and cozy and the neighborhood was clean and quiet. However, the cleaning crew didn’t do a good job, as there were mold on the bathtub and near the kitchen sink, and sand on the bathroom floor. Microwave was greasy as well. Consider changing the housekeeping crew cus looking at other reviews as well, it seems like they are consistently failing at doing their job.

We enjoyed the easy access and location. We used the gas grill just about every day! We enjoyed evenings on the screened-in porch. The neighborhood was exceptionally quiet and very relaxing. Thank you!
