Pet-Friendly Bed & Breakfast Near Chincoteague on Virginia's Eastern Shore

At Garden and Sea Inn, we proudly welcome guests traveling with their well-behaved dogs.
We believe your four-legged companions deserve a relaxing getaway too.

Set on five acres of beautifully landscaped gardens and natural fields, our inn offers plenty of open space for dogs to stretch their legs and explore. For the comfort and safety of all guests, we kindly ask that pets remain leashed at all times while on the property.

Throughout the grounds, you’ll find peaceful spots to sit, read, or unwind while enjoying the gardens alongside your best friend. For a longer stroll, guests can enjoy our rustic walking path that gently loops around the forest. The path is regularly mowed and perfect for relaxed walks with your dog.

Please be advised that pets are not permitted at Chincoteague National Wildlife Refuge or Assateague Island (Virginia Side) - Not even in the car.
