This is a beautifully restored traditional Chincoteague home in the Deep Hole area of the island, down a short unpaved lane very close to Little Oyster Bay. Formerly the home of famous decoy-maker Miles Hancock (on Hancock Lane), there are many historic photos and country antiques that contribute to the tasteful decoration of the house. We loved the large screened porch with comfortable furniture for morning tea or coffee and a good read, and the kitchen was incredibly well-equipped. We lacked for nothing. The two upstairs bedrooms had very comfortable beds and the half bath upstairs (complementing the full bath and laundry room downstairs) was a great convenience. The living room has very comfortable furniture and lots of literature to help structure a meaningful visit. Overall, there was a sense of peace and tranquility here that we treasured. Only a very short drive/walk/cycle ride from Maddox and downtown, I will definitely return to this special place.
