Have not stayed at The Refuge Inn for years and was delighted to find that it remains such an excellent accommodation and so close to the National Seashore and Wildlife Refuge. It remains affordable and very very well maintained. Morning breakfast delivered to your room is superb. Number one location in Chincoteague for me.

What a gem
We had the most relaxing time at the Refuge and loved the breakfast delivered to our room and the closeness to the island. We jumped on the bike trail every morning and rode through Assateague. We had a fabulous time. We will be back soon.

We loved our stay for the weekend. My kids especially loved the ponies next door. The facilities were very clean and conveniently located close to shops, restaurants, and a short drive to the Chincoteague Beach. Our rooms were very nice and comfy. We loved having breakfast delivered to our room too. It was a nice touch.

We had a great stay at the Refuge Inn in August 2024! The inn is an older, quaint property that has been thoughtfully updated and is well-maintained. Our room was clean, spacious, and comfortable. The staff were all very kind and helpful! We really enjoyed the pool, which is warm and large enough for several groups to enjoy. It is partially shaded and surrounded by beautiful landscaping. We also liked being able to interact with the ponies that live at the inn; the bike shop sells food for them if you want to feed them. The property is in a great location, just across the bridge from the Chincoteague National Wildlife Reserve, making it an easy walk, bike ride, or drive to get across to see the wild ponies and visit the beach. There are several restaurants and shops in walking distance too. A couple of things to be aware of - if you have any difficulty with stairs be sure to ask for a first floor room when you book, there are no elevators. Additionally, pack your bug spray as the whole area has lots of mosquitoes, gnats, deer flies, and horse flies - they are well controlled around the hotel buildings and pool, but if you venture past the parking lot or want to go anywhere but the beach on the wildlife reserve you definitely need some bug repellent!

Fabulous place to stay!
Our stay at Refuge Inn was fabulous. The location is wonderful for accessing Assateague Island and food was easily reached on the main thoroughfare. The hotel was clean and the staff very friendly. We enjoyed the pool, the rooftop area, and we loved visiting the ponies on property. Our ONLY complaint was that the fitness room was only accessible on the hours of the office (8 am-10pm) as you need a physical key to enter. We are just early morning exercisers with consideration of having small children with us. We would gladly return to Refuge Inn for a future visit.

This is our second time staying at this property, and we loved it just as much as the first! The beach nearby is our favorite beach to come to now in the summer, and this hotel makes it all the better. With their free breakfast and friendly service, its impossible to not like. We will stay here always when we come to visit the town and the beach.

We loved staying here! It was very clean and charming. You could smell the ocean from the balcony. They have ponies right outside that you can feed. The pool was beautiful and well maintained. The front desk was amazing and gave us a ton of information on local fun activities for our kids. Will definitely stay here again!

This is our second stay at this hotel, as our 5 year old requested to return. The room is nice and well themed, the staff is friendly, and my toddlers like the pool and hot tub. It feels a little more like a b&b than a hotel - it’s somewhere in between - due to its unique theming and room service breakfast. My kids like the ponies. The staff has always been very sweet and accommodating; the only downside is front office is closed after 10pm but it’s not a big deal. Our first stay, we somehow lost a key (they’re physical keys) and they were so nice and gracious and didn’t even charge us.
