FISHING - The majority of new folks who move to “Greenback”(as the natives call it) do so because of the excellent fishing in the Atlantic Ocean and the Chincoteague and Chesapeake bays. You can drop a line from any of the landings to the north or to the south of Greenbackville along the Chincoteague Bay for drum, rock, flounder, sand shark, etc. in season. And surf fishing in the ocean is excellent. Landings all along the shoreline provide excellent opportunities for crabbing, and the sandy bottom in the shallow parts of bay is a fun place to clam. Questions about fishing or need rigging? Call Seahawk Fish Center on Route 13, just south of Pocomoke.- Everything for fishing fun including guided fishing trips.

Summary: Loved the house. Very clean, easy to find. The town is very small and close to the water. Loved the docks and restaurant in walking distance. Close drive to Chincoteague and activities.

Summary: This home was perfect for our family. It was very well stocked with baking staples and foods such as PB&J, taco night fixings, and spaghetti. My kids enjoyed the toys, and we took the kite to the beach. We felt safe allowing our eight year old to ride one of the bikes around the town without fear of traffic

Summary: My family wanted to do something different this year. We normally go to OBX, Topsail Island or Tybee Island. We got a new pet Cruze Girl and we couldn’t leave her at home, so I went on VRBO and found this beautiful home by the harbor, we had a fantastic time. We visited Assateague, saw the lighthouse, guard shore beach, NASA, miniature golf, salt water pony cruise I highly recommend, and there’s a quiet beach right down the road where we went floating and the teens went kayaking in the harbor and biking. It was a lovely trip, sad it’s over.

Summary: The house was in a very quiet neighborhood and walking distance to the dock. You can launch kayaks and boat from the two boat ramps there (they have 2 kayaks at the property). At the end of the road they have a restaurant, the food was delicious (this is the place that was the Krusty Krab) As for the house, 3 bedrooms each with their own bathroom, one room has bunk beds and a crib, tv room, nice dining room and big kitchen. There was everything in the house that you could possibly need. Two hours from Virginia Beach, 1 hour from ocean city and 25 minutes to chincoteague. We didn’t want to leave!!

Summary: The house was a great location right by the bay with kayaks and bicycles to use. Convenient to both Chincoteague, a half hour drive to the refuge and Assoteague within 45 minutes. Watched the Wallops rocket launch from the balcony. House was very clean and the renovation was well done down to the detail. The kitchen facilitated everything we needed for daily meals. The neighborhood is quiet and quaint. A great experience for our whole family.

Summary: We are so happy that we discovered this gem. We got to witness a rocket launch from wallops right from the top deck. Everyone was so friendly, and we even caught crabs off the dock. Would highly recommend. Property is exactly as described.

Summary: What a wonderful little getaway. It was what I expected and more. Nice and quiet the kids really enjoyed being able to walk down to the docks and catch and enjoy all the local wildlife. And access to bikes for them was a plus too. It rained a couple days while we were down but i between storms the kids were still able to find things to do close to home. Would definitely recommend this place to anyone. Had a little problem with the internet in the beginning but the owners were very kind and helpful and got it all squared away quickly. I am definitely looking into coming back next year. Ty for making our stay such a wonderful experience!
