The Refuge Inn is a beautiful little hotel in Chincoteague. In particular, the indoor pool area was a gem. It's a heated pool in a greenhouse like enclosure. The pool is clean and surrounded by plants that were brought in for the winter. At night, there was steam coming off the pool, creating a lovely atmosphere.

Enjoyable Stay
We enjoyed our recent one night stay at the Refuge Inn. Check-in was quick and easy. The lobby, hallways and our room were all well-maintained and clean. Our room looked like it was recently renovated. The bed was comfortable and it was nice to have two chairs to relax in and a small dining area to have our breakfast. Luckily, the weather was warm enough to enjoy the balcony in the afternoon.

Room and cleanliness were top notch. What a comfortable bed! Shower and bathroom perfect. Front desk staff were about the friendliest I've ever spoken with. Coffee was good! hot, and put out nice and early for us stargazers. Nice breakfast too.
We made use of the rooftop deck every day, several times a day. Also the back deck to check the stars early morn and late eve every day. We were extremely happy to see that you still have the roof deck! And that the ponies and bikes are still just across the parking lot. We are definitely coming back! Thank you for all the thoughtful touches- it was noted and much appreciated.

the refuge inn
I liked the location overlooking the salt marsh, the colors of the Inn that blend into the trees instead of offering a stark contrast as do the newer condos and apartments. The house staff are very friendly and front desk very welcoming. I also liked looking out at the pony corral in the morning, the 2 cats that seem to travel across the paddocks, and the well maintained facilities.

We really enjoyed our stay at the Refuge Inn. The staff was so friendly and helpful. The pool, sauna, and exercise room were very nice to have available as the weather for our three day stay was not the best. The little extras, like the deck, beautiful landscaping and the horses make the Refuge the perfect choice. We hope to come back someday.

Wonderful hotel with spacious rooms. Refuge ponies are right at the hotel. Beautiful views of the marshes and great gardens and pool. Assateague Island is within walking/biking distance. Bike rentals are available right next door. Staff were friendly and helpful. We plan to return in the future and recommend this hotel.

This is a wonderful property with very pleasant staff in a terrific location. Where else on Chincoteague can you sit on your balcony looking at ponies and look out over the marsh. Magical!

We loved this place! There is much care in the little things. Real furniture in the room, enough towels, nice soap and shampoo, coffee and tea all day, nice pool, and just that extra touch with everything. It is walkable distance to the National Park and just enough away from the busy beach stores. Staff was very helpful!
