Eureka! on Deep Hole Creek is the Chincoteague Island's Premier Waterfront Vacation Rental Home. It is in a class of its own. No other house on Chincoteague can legally accommodate nearly as many people. Very few have similarly fabulous locations and views.
Stupendous, Epic and Fantastic are words that almost begin to describe the site, the view, the intriguing custom design and the amenities. We are continually making improvements; our goal is that those superlatives are also used by each guest to describe every aspect of their stay at Eureka!

Eureka! is quite pterally right on, and over, the water! Two miles to the bridge to Assateague and the Chincoteague National Wildpfe Refuge and the beach at Assateague. About a mile to the downtown area of Chincoteague.
Photo Gallery Three: Look at these great views!!!
This gallery shows the views. There are so many! Note the floating dock. This makes boating crabbing and swimming much easier. There is an aluminum ladder. Swimming in the creek is fun.. but for strong swimmers only. The tidal current moves pretty quickly. Bring water shoes.
