I visited Chincoteague this past weekend with my boyfriend and his young son. We stayed at the Refuge Inn and it was a terrific experience. I called ahead of time to reconfirm my reservation and make sure I was placed in a non-smoking, quiet room. I also let them know that we wouldn't be arriving until after 10 pm. The... More

Friendly people at the front desk and the staff in general. Room was nice and everything seemed very clean. Breakfast was just right and the location is ideal for visiting the Chincoteague National Wildlife Refuge. More

When my mom came to visit D.C. from Seattle, I decided to take a trip to the coast and search out the wild ponies of Chincoteague. We stayed at the Refuge Inn and loved it. The staff was nice, professional, and extremely helpful. When we first arrived they asked if we had plans for dinner, and if not, they warned... More

Very nice Hotel, great for kids, pool was open early & closed late in the evening. The Room was cleaned up every morning but not really cleaned (tables were not wiped down etc.) I had a friend who stayed here years ago and this used to be the last place before the bridge over to Assateague and you used to...

After visiting the Refuge Inn last summer, our stay there has been the topic of many a conversation! The quality of the Inn, cleanliness, friendly & attentive staff, and the setting itself impressed us greatly! Great place for families. The picnic area is very spacious & well kept & a perfect place for the little ones to run & play.... More

My then boyfriend and I stayed for 3 nights at this hotel last summer. We were fortunate enough to take advantage of their last minute getaway special that they offered through the website. The room we were given was very spacious- a large queen bed, great A/C, huge bath, and sliding doors that opened up to the picnic area. It... More

This is an older Inn but wonderfully clean and welcoming. I was greeted at reception; check-in was smooth and efficient. I inquired about activities and received great ideas. The room was fresh and the view of the corral peaceful. I sat on the balcony and enjoyed the sound of the birds and ponies. I walked less than 1/4 mile to... More

The most important thing to me when I stay in a motel is the cleanliness. This place was a very clean, nice hotel. The room was spacious the beds were comfortable and the bathroom was spotless. Sure it's an older motel, but it still was nice. The continental breakfast included was a nice bonus. We were greeted each morning with... More

I had not planned on staying at the Refuge Inn, but was very glad I did. I drove by the hotel I thought I would stay at and decided it looked pretty sketchy and started to turn around in the Refuges parking lot. When I saw the resident ponies I decided to see if they had any rooms and they... More
