Nice but needs some esthetic and comfort upgrades
Our room was on the second floor of the Anchor Inn. We had a nice view from balcony with a partial view of the water. A bit of disappointment was the bathroom because it had two large wall patches in the tub area that were not painted including the walls where they meet the ceiling. Also the bottom portion of the tv cabinet was damaged and not well maintained. The beds were comfortable but the mattresses should either be rotated or replaced because of worn in body positioning. The entrance door and door sill (rotten wood) was leaking outside air when windy outside. Room lighting definitely needs to be brighten up and a comfortable chair added.
For 15 years I have been coming to the Anchor Inn when I am in Chincoteague. Always the best staff and clean rooms.

Understaffed in all areas. Breakfast is poor unless you wanted cereal and muffins or barely warm food.
The gas firepits are nice but bring lots of bug spray if you want to be out after dusk.
The place was very clean and nice! My only complaint is that the free breakfast is only for two people a day. So if you are a family of four, you have to pay for two. And the breakfast definitely wasn’t worth that.
Very clean and great location. Breakfast was nice and the pool area was really fantastic. Loved watching the marina walk-able to all restaurants and activities.
Wonderful staff...clean and great location....boat dock slips included with private pier and on property restaurant....perfect location for the pony penning...walk to Carnival and Auction.
The property advertises that has a pool however Anchor Inn does not have a pool, you have to go tho the next door property to use their pool.
At our arrival while checking the room, I noticed the bathroom was dirty and the sheets of both beds were dirty, we were moved to a different room, so that was inconvenient after we unpacked. We will never stay again in this place. Too much money and is not worth it.
