Fabulous Getaway!!!
This was a wonderful getaway retreat. You CANNOT TOP this little cottage. Everything is provided that you need: super clean, well decorated, and appointed and close to great restaurants and the quaint downtown area. We thoroughly enjoyed our time there. The communication with Jennifer (owner) could not have been better from the trip planning stage through the conclusion of our stay. She was immensely friendly and helpful. Stay at Starfish - you will not regret it.

The Starfish is just lovely
We really enjoyed our stay at the Starfish. The house was newly renovated and had all the best amenities. The beds were very comfortables and we loved the big wrap around porch as well as the side screened porch. We would definitely stay here again!

Renovated, beautifully decorated, comfortable, conveniently located, and most importantly…CLEAN!!!
My adult daughter and I booked the Starfish House for a weekend of biking and getting together w other family members who stayed in close proximity to the house. We were thrilled to enter a beautifully decorated, clean, renovated cottage with a beautiful sitting porch (some of it screened) to shield us from the mosquitoes that are so popular on Chincoteague Island! We enjoyed the welcome basket and bottle of wine-and that all supplies necessary were readily available ( t.p., paper towels, dish soap, laundry detergent, etc…) Access into the house was easy, and the ev charger and washer and driver also made life easier for the weekend. The only problem we encountered was that the oven was extremely difficult to use-wish there were directions… but luckily, our short stay didn’t require cooking. Had we needed to cook, the kitchen so beautifully renovated, would have not been so convenient to use without contracting the owner for instructions. Perhaps leaving directions in the welcome basket would have been a good idea. The inability to simply boil water for a cup of tea turned out to be quite frustrating. All in all, we had a lovely weekend and appreciated the comfortable beds, and extremely clean house. We would return to this house again for sure! Vanessa from NJ

A gem of a cottage!
This cottage was very thoughtfully and tastefully remodeled and decorated, and was equally pleasing to the adults and the kids in our family. Location cannot be beat if you are looking to explore Assateague/Chincoteague. Hosts were very responsive and incredibly understanding. A clear winner.
