Waterfront days, easy island evenings

The Anchor Inn keeps things beautifully unpretentious, with a casual style inspired by sand, sea, and sky. Days flow between laid-back hangs under the pergola for steaming crabs and downtime by the outdoor pool. It all comes with the warm charm of a small country inn, with contemporary services in the mix.

  • Main Street, walk-everywhere base

    Steps from the waterfront, plus easy walks to restaurants, shops, and island spots.

  • Crab-steam picnic house

    A dedicated picnic house and pergola set the scene for self-catered crab feasts.

  • Private pier for fishing and crabbing

    Cast a line right on the Channel, then prep the catch at the fish station.

Amenities

  • Peaceful Chincoteague Channel waterfront setting
  • Dock hangouts for NASA rocket launch views
  • Modern marina with boat slips and ramp
  • Trailer parking for bring-your-own boats
  • Private water-view balconies or patios in every room
  • Two miles to wildlife refuge and beach

Location is great and rooms with balcony have partial dockside view. Kitchenette room has full size fridge. Pool is nice but not heated so a little chilly when we visited in may.
Verified review

8/10 Very good

I found it to be great value for the price. Wish I'd had enough time to enjoy the pool and fire pit, both looked very welcoming. The bar has happy hour, staff there are nice. Lots of variety at breakfast (though quality is basic). Nice view outside of the sunset. Wish they splurged a few more cents on better disposable in-room coffee cups/lids (lid fit is flimsy and cup bends - burning hot coffee ended up spilling all over me in the car).

10/10 Exceptional

The check- in was easy and the clerk very sweet and accommodating. We were pleasantly surprised after reading some reviews about broken showers and musty smells. Our room was SUPER clean and roomy-the bathroom clean and in excellent repair. The bed was very comfortable and we rested and slept well. The a/c ran constantly but it was super hot out so no problem. The room was very quiet though the parking lot was full. We did not use the pool, but it looked as though others were enjoying it. Check out was fast and again a nice clerk asking about our stay. We did not take advantage of the breakfast but again a lot of others were enjoying it. We will book again definitely.
