We have stayed at the Waterside many times over the years! We love it, and stay here every time we come to Chinqateague! The rooms are always clean, the balcony offers great views and the breakfast has a variety of foods and it is always fresh and good!

Great clean locally owned hotel. Breakfast was also wonderful!
The Waterside Inn is a very clean, friendly place with beautiful views. The staff is great and we really appreciate the breakfast. It’s so nice to not have to get up and drive somewhere.
This property was perfect for our stay at Chincoteague. I loved the hot tub, pool, and proximity to town for dinner and drinks. This is a great place to stay!
Lovely place right on the water, clean rooms and kind staff. Free breakfast served every morning and lots of tv channels available. Pool water was a little dirty but everything else was exceptional!
