Great Location!

The location of Seaside Serenity was perfect! It was far enough away from the tourist spots to be quiet but close enough for a short drive to local attractions. The house was beautifully appointed and the hostess was so helpful and gracious!

Chincoteague

Terrific! Property was clean and tidy. Lots of labels in bins, drawers, boxes, closets. These labels made it easy to find anything and everything. Speaking of anything, the kitchen had it all. Microwave, toaster, keurig, DW, washer and dryer. Plenty of TVs, grill on the back porch. I’m getting tired of listing. Easy access to Chincoteague and the beach and wildlife refuge. Highly recommended.

Getaway Weekend

We enjoy visiting Chincoteague, this trip was to celebrate my husband’s birthday and we felt we picked the ideal spot. This home was in a great location, roomy, well-equipped and very comfortable. Outdoor areas were beautiful, saw ducks in the canal in the backyard every morning. We were able to walk down to Main Street. Our dog loved it also! Thank you!

Comfortable and Perfect!

We really enjoyed our stay! Everything you could possibly need was there. I was amazed at how clean and organized everything was. My husband was shocked how everything was labeled, I personally loved it. There were even some toys available for our 2 year old which was a nice surprise. It was a bit cold so we didn’t enjoy outside as much but it looked like it would have been really nice and comfortable to sit on the screened porch or in the little backyard by the water. Definitely would stay here again! Thank you!

Wonderful stay

Had a wonderful time in Chincoteague. This place is right down the road from the pens they were keeping mother / babies from the wild horses so we got to see them up close. Short drive from everything you'd want to visit

Great Location

We enjoyed everything about this home. It’s very spacious, clean and welcoming. Extremely well stocked with everything you might need. The outdoor space is also inviting with a nice sitting area. We enjoyed watching the ducks. We also spotted a fox and nice sized deer, which was totally unexpected. Thank you, we’ll be back.

The best vacation house!

We love staying here. The house is clean and well stocked with almost everything humans and pets could need. Quiet neighborhood and close to everything. We love the screened in porch and enjoyed some figs off the tree when we were lucky enough to beat the birds to them. Looking forward to our next stay!

Beautiful surroundings, peaceful and relaxing

Spent a lot of time on the screen porch and fishing pier watching birds. Ducks, herons, egrets, and cormorants fishing, and mockingbirds, cardinals, and bluejays eating figs from the tree. We rarely rent a place twice but this was our 3rd stay here. The host really has thought of everything!

Repeat Renter - Wonderful stay

2nd time renting this house, we really enjoy it. Katy is a wonderful and responsive owner, very friendly and accommodating. The house is very well organized and has many items to borrow which reduces the need to pack (example - beach towels, beach cart). The house is in a great location - minutes from anything on the island, yet is very secluded. Has a nice peaceful canal off the back which the kids enjoyed fishing in, walking distance to the fair grounds, quiet neighborhood. Thank you again for the great weekend!

About the host

Hosted by Katherine Fuller

Host profile image
A lifelong Chincoteague vacationer, I first visited the island because my mother – an educator for Maryland's Montgomery County Public Schools – fell in love with “Misty of Chincoteague” after assigning the book to her reading class. At the time, a fellow teacher had a vacation home on the island, and my mother was enthralled with the idea of visiting with her 4-year-old daughter (me). Our first vacation here was enchanting; I’m sure she never imagined she’d develop such affection for this island community.

After annual vacations and eventually retirement, my mother fulfilled her life-long dream of owning a Chincoteague vacation home. Through 2016, she cherished her time at Seaside Serenity and shared her love of the island by inviting friends and family, befriending fellow vacationers and residents, and throwing marvelous parties and get-togethers. An amazing hostess, she loved to entertain, and her parties were legendary.

I wanted to continue my mother’s legacy of offering a welcoming and comfortable home-away-from-home, so I hope you and your guests find Chincoteague as peaceful and charming as I and that your stay in Seaside Serenity leaves you restored, rejuvenated, and wanting to return to the island year after year! —Katy

What makes this property unique

Tucked away in a private community, Seaside Serenity is a peaceful getaway with just a quick walk to spectacular bayside sunsets, carnival grounds, and downtown Chincoteague. There is absolutely nothing like relaxing at the pool after a day on the beach or pony-watching on Assateague. With outdoor amenities including a fishing dock overlooking the canal, Seaside Serenity will surely leave vacationers rested and relaxed.
