Lovely home and very nice host!! Unfortunately, AC broke and part was not readily available. We were able to open most of the windows. Days at the beach were fabulous!!! Laundry services were about 20 minutes away.

6 / 10Average·Apr 2021
Our family of 5 enjoyed our 4-night stay. Assateague was a wonderful place to vacation with kids, even in the off-season. The kitchen was well-equipped, we appreciated the charcoal grill and beach toys, and we slept well. The listing cited a fireplace that the owner told us we could not use after we arrived. The listing also advertised a water view that is really a tiny gap between houses. The owner did not tell us about construction underway at the house next door, and we never were able to access movies via our Netflix or Amazon accounts.
