Whether you are kayaking or paddle boarding on the creek, sitting by the fire pit, biking down country roads or going to the beach, you will find plenty to do or enjoy doing nothing at all.

Our place could not have been any nicer, recently renovated, had high quality amenities. We had the most pleasant, peaceful stay. If looking for tranquility and pristine views of the Chesapeake Bay waters this is the place for you.

Spring Break on The Creek

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: The proprietor of this location is a close associate of mine and having watched her work for some time I have always admired her touch. This however was the first time I have experienced her design personally. Jenny Barker's design is accommodation paired with subtlety. Wherever you are in the apartment, your every need is within an arms reach without your knowing. I spent 6 days in the Hosta Cottage and my only complaint is that I wish I could've stayed longer. I was very pleased by my stay and would recommend a stay at the Hosta Cottage to anyone and everyone.

Serene Escape

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: I live and work in Washington DC and vactioned on Chincoteage Island with my family when I was a child. My parents were adventureres and would take us for drives off the island to search out other communitites and places of interest on the Eastern Shore. Even though I was young, peering out the back window, I never forgot the wild lushness of the backroads on the "mainland." I found that wild lushness at Hosta Cottage. It is situated on a property that is secluded and breathtakingly pure. I felt like I was at a 4 star resort- nestled in a safe place and away from it all....perched between the best of both worlds. It took me about 20 minutes to drive to the beach on Chincoteague Island one day and I rode my bike to Saxis Island where the road crossed the most beautiful marshland I have ever seen. The accomodations inside the cottage were pristine and incredibly comfortable. The sheets were a very nice quality and the bed was great. I had coffee on my own private patio that was literally on the edge of a high bank overlooking Holdens creek where I watched fish jump and two Giant Blue Herons on the bank. At night, the stars were hypnotizing and I listened to music on the (bluetooth) wi-fi speakers by the firepit. Honestly, this was the best vacation rental I have ever been in. The furnishings inside the house was gorgeous and not the kitchy beach decor. (The pictures are beautiful, but it is even better in person.) The Wifi signal was strong enough to stream movies on Netflix. I couldn't have been happier. This was a perfect escape and only 3 hours from the city. Thank you CRV!
