Summer House
This is our second summer at Katydid. This house is so welcoming and makes you feel like you are right at home. It is an architecturally beautiful house, filled with small things remind you of family, and very convenient to stay.

Wanted to Love It
The house location was perfect and the views are amazing. The house is spacius and very nice. The screened porch was great. However, the furnishings are not in line with the house. I felt like I was back in my dorm rec room. The furniture and adult beds are all just so uncomfortable that it was difficult to get a good night's sleep or relax after a long day. It was also very hot during our stay and given the instruction to not lower the AC below 70 due to concerns about 'freezing up" we spent the week with the house sitting at about 78 degrees. Finally, the house was not very clean when we arrived. I am certain we left it cleaner than we found it. All of this said, I still gave Katydid a 4 Star rating because the location and house itself are perfect. It just needs some upgrades and a better cleaning company to make it the perfect family beach house.

Lovely house overlooking the bay
We had a lovely week at The Katydid. We spent a lot of time at the beach on Assateague, but several days the weather did not cooperate and it was really nice to have a comfortable place to hang out.

Lovely- such a well stocked kitchen a beautiful view! The heat didn’t work but the property manager was open about it and brought us a heater- and there were plenty of blankets to use as well. A really nice home that was artfully decorated and in a really easy location to get to town and the nature reserve. Thank you!

Wonderful open house, overlooking the sound
This was a lovely property. It was neat clean and it had a nice open floor plan. The views of the sound were great, it had a nice upper deck and we enjoyed the outdoor screened in porch and ate most of our meals there. It was nice at times having two separate reading areas, and the kitchen was well stocked. Other guests and mention things like Watervue versus waterfront but sitting in the living room and the screened in porch we had a lovely views at Sunset, all you could ask for. I would definitely stay here next time I come back. And again reading some of the reviews it seems like some people just don’t get the overall house which is really quite lovely

Property had an airy downstairs living room and attached open-concept kitchen. The kitchen was well equipped with cookware if folks were so inclined. Screened porch was pleasant and the walk-out balconies on the rooms a nice touch. There were a few areas that could be worked on, however. The hardwood floor though the house has a few splinters that keep you walking carefully (three splinters later). I'd also suggest that we're at a point in the COVID pandemic when linens and pillows should be included as part of the rental versus requiring them to be brought by the renters. All in all, it's a reasonably priced rental, in a good location, with a decent view of the sound. I would recommend it to others.

Amazing house
We had such a great stay at Katydid. It was our first time staying in Chincoteague and we definitely want to come back. The views from this house are incredible. The best sunsets from the living room! The kitchen is well stocked with pots, pans, coffee maker, etc. We loved the screened-in porch off the kitchen/living room with wood rocker bench overlooking the water.

A nice place to vacation/hide from the pandemic
The property is a nice three bedroom home with views of the water. We (just the two of us) mostly used the downstairs, which was a great space for sleeping, relaxing, and working (we both set up our work stations on the dining table). The Wifi was mostly fine, but gave us a little trouble on occasion. The bandwidth was not enough for heavy downloading or streaming. Fair warning, bring your own trash bags! We knew about the toilet paper, paper towels, sheets, pillows, soap, etc., but we didn't realize we'd be without trash bags. The kitchen is very well stocked, which would have been nice to know. The rental company made it sound pretty sparse, so we brought our own pasta strainer and produce knife (no need- it's very well equipped with a kitchen aid, pots, pans, dishes, a colander, etc.). The property has beautiful views, though the directions of how to navigate the driveways were a bit confusing (and GPS doesn't get you there). We'd definitely go back. The bed we slept on was on the firmer side, but was in good condition. One of the beds upstairs was not level (the head was propped up slightly over the foot). Two of the decks were small, but fine. The big deck was excellent, though the chairs aren't much to speak of, and the screened in porch was perfect for evenings. There was also a significant collection of books and games, though we didn't use it.

Fabulous
We lived this house and wished we could stay a second week but work called. The house is prettier than all the pictures! The views, especially at sunset over the marsh were fabulous. We were only 2 people but the house was easily spacious enough for 6. The kitchen was thoroughly stocked with every sort of food preparation tool. The beds were comfy. The sofas and chairs were plentiful. The screen porch was why we chose the house. I spent half our time painting views from the house and very nearby Assateague park. I would highly recommend this house. The breezes were lovely.
