    Beautiful home. Very clean. Kitchen was well stocked. Very relaxing week (except for the darn mosquitoes). Chincoteague was only 35 minutes away and OCMD was 90 minutes. Ate at Mallards, Blarney Stone and Tavola in Onancock and all were excellent. There’s also an excellent bakery right in town.

    Perfect. Adorable home on the water. Amazing views, great dock. Has everything you need. Convenient to historic Onancock shops and restaurants. We loved everything about the home. Host was amazing! We have stayed at a few rentals in the area and this is my favorite! Hope to be able to stay again!

    Nice quiet location. Directions to the house were good. Check in was easy. House was comfortable for 8 people.The host and VRBO support team were very helpful and friendly. Unfortunately, there was a fish and chicken legs in the freezer that were old and should have been removed before we arrived.

    This cottage is the perfect place to unplug and enjoy the peace of time gone by with all the modern comforts of home. Our family loved the charm and the location of this cottage and Meg was extremely helpful and supportive in making sure we have everything we needed.

    It was a very cute home with a lot of character and a beautiful view of the water. The downstairs bathroom wasn't the cleanest, but the one upstairs was fine so we just used that. It had an old house smell, but I suppose there isn't much that can be done about that. None of that really impacted our stay, though. It was very relaxing, a fair price and a great location halfway between Cape Charles and Chincoteague. I would stay there again.

    Overall is a very charming cottage. It could use a bit of maintenance to the grounds and the bathroom.

    My wife and our two boys and I spent a week at the Creek House. It was a lovely place to relax, fish, kayak, and dig into a good book. Town is a quick drive away and has everything you’d need. We would book with Meg again.

    My family was in Onancock for a wedding and this property worked out great. We had 3 couples and some small kids. The fact that there were 4 toilets was a big plus! We had to do some food prep for the wedding and the well stocked kitchen was great. The sunroom was a great hang out spot. My husband and I enjoyed taking the kayaks out. The dock was beautiful and the stairs down to the water were a big plus The hosts were very responsive and everything was seamless.

    Four 70 something one time kayak friends came to enjoy this waterfront home for a few days. It was absolutely perfect. Four bedrooms, three queen beds, and one with two twin beds. Plenty of space to hang out together or separately. Nice outdoor area, including a pier. Even though one day was rainy we were able to go out because we were on a sheltered cove. Lots of kayaking, destinations in the area, including on the Chesapeake Bayside, paddling to Onancock town, or traveling just a few minutes to the other side of the Peninsula and the ocean.

    The house is quaint and homey. It is an old house with some upgrades. The downstairs beds are comfortable (didn’t use upstairs) but the house needs a refresh on furniture and decor to be competitive. The grounds are fantastic and I spent a lot of time on the pier reading a book and watching the geese and fish. The owner is very sweet and promptly addressed any issues we had.
