It's quiet, but still close enough to things to do all within an hours drive. Ocean City is about a 40-45 minute drive, Assateague, MD to see the ponies on the beach is about 35-40 minutes. Assateague, VA and Chincoteague are 30-35, Wollops NASA station is 15-20 minutes. It overlooks Chincoteague Bay and the island of Chincoteague. My husband and i would definitely stay there again.

Stayed 2 nights in Feb 2022 ### 6/10 Okay #### Candace O. Aug 6, 2025 Liked: Check-in, location #### The Purple Door House The location is perfectly located 15-20 from the beaches, Chincoteague island, tourist area, horse farms, boat/kayaking and fishing charters. The home has a nice private dock and resides in a beautiful and large community. The community has pools a restaurant and playgrounds. We wish we had more time just to use the community amenities. Only recommendations we would make; full cleaning and inspection of the main AC unit, it had mildew and gave the house a musty smell. A deep clean on the carpets. Due to the musty mildew smell the carpets feel very moist and smell. Fix the dead bolt lock. The key would get severely stuck when inserted. We were lucky to get the key released but a lock smith should really take a look at the mechanism. Lastly, owners should invest in newer updated furniture, finish the sunroom with sheetrock, and purchase outdoor patio furniture. These things could easily be taken care of and none of the above stopped us from making the purple door home our regular place to vacation every year. ![](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/870cb59d-a5c3-48ba-bb53-c6551a467422-1754509810846.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ![](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/2e304ab3-6804-46d7-91e2-6467d444ae52-1754509837747.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ##### Candace O.

The house was clean and had everything that we needed. We enjoyed our mornings and evenings sitting and looking at the bay. A great way to unwind! ##### Anna A.

Aug 11, 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Beautiful views We enjoyed our stay at the Purple Door. The views were spectacular and we enjoyed sitting on the deck. My husband taught my daughter to fish and she loved the dock area. We did use the amenities at Captain’s Cove and drove out to Assateague Island to see the horses. The location is tucked away from major attractions but we got used to the drive after the first day. The neighbors were friendly. Enjoyed our stay ! ##### Linda D. Stayed 7 nights in Jul 2024 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Marquita D. Jul 31, 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy We had an amazing time at the purple door! We wrre able to brimg our fur baby which was a HUGE plus. After reading the reviews I wasn't sure what to expect. I arrived knowing we made a good choice. Its a very cute little place. There was never a claim to be a luxury, upscale rental. Yes there could be a few updates. The air conditioner worked fine for us in a heatwave. In fact, it was a little chilly. I would go back for the views and location.We loved havimg access to the pools. Met some really nice people. It is accurate that this location is kind of remote. Pack and pick up everything you need on the way in. Didnt mind the 30 min ride to Chincoteague and Asateague to see the ponies. Check in and Checkout was simple and easy. The only caution is if you have mobility issues, there are MANY STAIRS! Nice place to relax. If I ever came back that way I will definitely stay again. Communication with Kelly, the property manager, was so easy. Always available and responded quickly and was always friendly. Lastly, there is a keurig, bring your k cups. Drinking coffee while watching the waves from the deck is the best way to start your day. ##### Marquita D.
