The perfect Chincoteague Island Location and close to Pony Festivities!

"Temenos is a Greek word used to designate a special place - a place of unique beauty - where you can go to separate yourself, to serve as a Retreat, a place for quiet Reflection, a place to recover your sacred center when the world is overwhelming." These words from the thoughtful Owners of this beautiful Home say it all - and encompass what we feel Chincoteague Island is all about.

Located on South Main Street, Island Temenos in the heart of our charming Island, and close to everywhere you want to be. Take a short stroll to the Historic District for Dining and Shopping, catch one of our famous Sunsets at Robert Reed Waterfront Park, or do a little Fishing at the Community Pier. Enjoy gazing at our Wild Ponies next door at the Carnival Grounds next door as you relax on the Screened Porch, or wander next door for one of our famous Oyster Fritters while the Firemen's Carnival is there each weekend in July.

Island Temenos may be in the heart of the action, but truly feels a million miles away. As you pull into the driveway, the charm of the White Picket Fence, and the Tree Swing swaying in the breeze, will let you know you're on Island Time now. This lovely Home sleeps 8 with 4 Bedrooms and 1 1/2 Baths. Entering through the huge Screened Porch, you're already thinking you'll be spending a lot of time right here - and big changes are in store for this Porch for Summer 2020 - new floors, furnishings, and more! 

The Chef in your family will love the newly renovated Kitchen with gleaming Granite and just the perfect combo of muted Sandy Tones and pops of Sea Glass Blues and Greens. Special touches like Barn Doors and Custom Window Treatments give a taste of yesteryear, but with the Modern Amenities you want and need.  Very well-equipped, preparing family meals will be a bay breeze. Dine in comfort in the spacious Dining Room, or Al Fresco on the Screened Porch - so many options! 

After a fun-filled day exploring Assateague National Seashore, relax in the comfort of the AC and enjoy Free WiFi and Cable TV. Island Temenos has both a Living Room and a Family Room, making it ideal for your family to spread out or for 2 families to share! There are many inviting nooks to curl up with a good book, or take in lovely Water Views, just across Main Street. The serene Coastal Colors and Historic Hardwood Floors beckon you to come and "sit a spell." This Home is not just a place to lay your head - it is truly a Vacation Experience. 

Downstairs, you'll find 2 lovely Bedrooms, both with a comfy Queen Bed, and a Full Bath with Tub/Shower Combo. Each Bedroom truly has its own personality and unique Coastal Flair. There's also an Outdoor Shower for rinsing off after a day at the Beach. Wandering upstairs, you'll be greeted by a cozy Reading Nook, 2 more spacious Bedrooms and a Half Bath. Both Bedrooms have 2 Twin Beds each - making the upstairs the perfect Retreat for the kiddos! 

Island Temenos is all about quality time - time with family, time with friends, time for you. We can't think of a more perfect place to fall in love with Chincoteague Island. Let us help you plan a Vacation Retreat you won't soon forget.....

Island Temenos - becasue the best kind of souvenir is a Memory......

Getting away
The house was aged a little more than pictures showed but was over all clean. Beds were uncomfortable especially upstairs. Wooden floors downstairs uneven kinda made you think you were on a boat when you walked and need some anti slip threds on stairs going upstairs. Other than that neighborhood was very quiet to be on main street and town very unique. Really enjoyed our stay.

Absolutely wonderful.
We love the property. It was perfect for a family of 5. Great access to Assateague and everything Chincoteague has to offer. We walked downtown and enjoyed watching the kids play in the back yard at night. We’ll be back.

Wonderful cottage with view of the water across the street. Traffic noise at night was not really a problem. People around were very friendly. Plan on staying there again next year.

Cute quaint cottage
Loved the screened in porch and the outdoor shower. House was very quaint and beachy, with a small view of the bay from the front sitting room. This home served our needs for the most part. The only hiccups we had were the upstairs bathroom door frame and ceiling were super low and anyone on the taller side would hit their heads; also no ventilation in the upstairs bathroom. In contrast, the main bath downstairs was an ice box while the AC was working. We lost AC two days into our trip and ended up moving to another property.

Great and convenient family vacation spot
Our family thoroughly enjoyed our Chincoteague trip and staying in this sweet home! Our kids absolutely loved the swings in the yard and the little dress-up closet! How fun! The house was super convenient to anywhere we wanted to go on the island. We even walked multiple places and easily found our way back. We also love that it was close to some of the ponies to check out! The home had everything we needed in terms of appliances, supplies, beds and all and we were very pleased. We had a crab feast on the outdoor patio while kids played in the yard, which was perfect! There was one lock that seemed to need fixing, but we always felt safe. We would absolutely stay again.

Family Vacation with adult children
The property was great. I am avid exerciser so I get down on the floor and notice areas that others might not. This house had no dirt in corners and was very clean. The house decor impressed both myself and my family. The screened in porch is an asset because you can enjoy being outside despite the island bugs. The location is next to the Fairgrounds but the annual carnival was cancelled this year. However there was a religious retreat taking place in the fairgrounds for three of the nights we were there. All things considered my family had a great time and enjoyed the spacious, clean and well kept house. We will definetly stay there again!

We had a wonderful time!
Close to the shops and a 10 minute drive to the beach. The house was cozy and comfortable, and far enough away from the main drag that we enjoyed quiet, peaceful evenings. Plenty of room for our family and everyone had a great stay!

We felt at home
Very pleasant, clean, has everything a family might need for a short or long stay. We felt at home with our three kids (1, 12, and 13 year old and we still had two bedrooms that we did not use. More than complete kitchen, and plenty of books and games for kids and adults.

Not what we expected
The kitchen is beautiful, the beds are horrible to sleep on, the fridge takes over night to reach correct temp the central air isn’t all through the home the wicker furniture isn’t the best idea for a rental when all different shapes and sizes will be staying there, my 2 sons couldn’t even stand up straight in the upstairs bathroom, should have been way nicer for the amount of money we paid.
