**Island Living at Its Finest — Where Sunrises Steal the Show**

Welcome to the most breathtaking views Chincoteague Island has to offer. Nestled in the sought-after Oyster Bay I Community, this stunning three-bedroom, three-bathroom WATERFRONT rental home is a haven for those who crave inspiration from the natural world. If you're an artist, writer, creator, or simply someone who finds peace in golden-hour magic, this is where you belong.

Step inside to discover a thoughtfully designed living space that includes a comfortable living room and an additional den — perfect for curling up with a good book or sketching the marshland views that stretch endlessly beyond your windows. View the water from almost anywhere…Feeling playful? Challenge your guests to a round of bumper pool, because every retreat deserves a touch of friendly competition.

The real magic unfolds across multiple levels, where every room has a view!  Climb the spiral staircase to the third-level tower room, where panoramic vistas will leave you utterly speechless. Gorgeous sunsets paint the sky in hues you didn't know existed, and you'll find yourself reaching for a camera — or a canvas — day after day.

Outdoor living shines here with spacious decks ideal for entertaining and a screened porch complete with a ceiling fan, offering bug-free relaxation while the island breeze does the rest. Quietly listen to music and watch the Purple Martins swirl about … just off the porch. It's the kind of space where conversations linger and worries disappear. It's magical.

Boaters delight in the fact that they can tie-up their boat right at the home. Using the community boat ramp makes this easy. Boat, kayak or fish right from the property.

Beyond the home, adventure awaits. Explore the nearby Island Nature Trails for serene walks through coastal landscapes, catch waves at Assateague Beach where wild ponies roam, or bring the family to Maui Jack's Waterpark for splashing fun on warmer days.

This is more than a rental — it's an experience that feeds the soul. Reach out today to secure your ISLAND ESCAPE and experience these legendary sunrises over the bay.

Set back across the street from Chincoteague Bay, Homestead sits on 30 acres of basically pristine land. A cozy cottage, originally built in 1890, had been updated but the owners kept the original charm of yesterday but with the comfort of today. Now that charm and comfort has been expanded. A new addition offers a great room with a modern kitchen, dining area and room to stretch out and relax. The design includes oversized windows, sliding doors and a sky light. The house now has 2 screen porches and a balcony that lets you feel as though you are living in in a nature preserve! Homestead sleeps 5 but best suited for 4 adults. There are now 2 full sized bathrooms. Amenities include bikes, beach chairs and umbrellas: games, crayons and colored paper and good parking. And as part of the property, you'll vacation alongside the oldest home on the island, The Captain Timothy Hill House, listed on the National Register of Historic Places. With a tidal pond in front and unspoiled woods in back, Homestead is private, quiet and with lots of room outside. A perfect retreat! So relax on one of the porches, feel the breeze from the bay, watch the animals and birds that come by or take an outside shower under the stars. The Homestead that so many have come to love is still the same just more to love!
