Barbara & David were the perfect hosts for us. Barbara's breakfasts & teas were wonderful -- veritable gourmet meals, each one different and better than the last. Barbara is effervescent, David is dry, they compliment each other perfectly, both have a great sense of humor. Loved our 6th trip here as always.

After two weeks of traveling, we settled into the Channel Bass Inn on the softest pillows and mattress ever, going to sleep with the splashings of the fountain in the English garden in the back yard Barbara's food was truly outstanding - the tea, scones and desserts in the afternoons and the delicious English breakfasts in the mornings. It's like non other. We can hardly wait to go back there. Len and Bev - Kansas City, MO

My sister travels from Ohio with my nephew each summer to celebrate her birthday and we have stayed in B&B's with this year an almost seven year old, and my 14.5 year old four-legged child, Patches!! The Inn was full of kids and dogs but you would never know it from the quietness of the rooms, the respectful nature of all the guests, and the great host and hostess in David and Barbara. The breakfasts were superb, the conversation wonderful, and as always with B & B's we met the most delightful people. And just fifteen minutes from the Chincoteague state park, and right downtown Chincoteague with lots of adorable shops and the park at the Channel. It was a very enjoyable three days at the shore... the best yet! And the recommendation for dinner at Etta's was fantastic. And the sunset cruise not to be missed.

The Innkeepers, Barbara & David, were so friendly they felt like family! Barbara was also the cook & the best food was made every day for breakfast & tea time! They treated all the guests as if they were family! We will return!! Best Inn yet!

Barbara and David were incredible innkeepers. We have never had such a wonderful and filling breakfast at at B&B before. Every detail about breakfast was perfect. The rooms were delightful as well as comfortable. Barbara and David are also very generous-with beach umbrellas, chairs, and towels to lend to those with daytime excursions. Our vacation was made easy and fabulous thanks to them! We will definitely return.

What a wonderful experience for my first stay at a B&B. The hosts could not have been nicer and the food was outstanding. The beautiful gardens were an extra bonus and I hope all B&Bs can take a lesson or two from this place.

We were traveling so our stay was just overnight. It was a perfect visit. Breakfast was divine and the gardens are magnificent.

Barbara and David were amazing to say the least and the house is great! Barbara will do anything necessary to make your stay as comfortable as can be. We even received a free room upgrade on arrival. And David is just as outgoing and anxious to make you feel warm and welcome as Barbara is, so they both just make you feel like they've always been your family. We have never had the time to stay more than one night in a B&B so we really have to be impressed pretty quickly and efficiently and Barbara and David do just this. By the way, the breakfasts are the best of any B&B yet for us and the back garden with duck pond is very charming and relaxing. Channel Bass Inn is highly recommended!

The peaceful setting, large and delicious breakfasts and option to have tea, combine to make a wonderful weekend getaway. We've stayed at many B&Bs and the food here is better than any we've had.

If you're considering a trip here, you are in for a treat! The inn's gracious hosts, Barbara and David, will welcome you each morning with a delicious, generous, multi-course breakfast the likes of which is very unusual for a bed and breakfast in both quality and quantity. Typical fare includes fresh fruit salads with yogurt toppings, assorted scrumptious homemade breads, and a hot egg dish (such as Barbara's "world famous eggs"). Weather permitting; breakfast is served in a 3-season room off a beautifully maintained garden where plants, butterflies, cats and ducks coexist in harmony. Afternoon tea is offered most days, and is an impressive affair with tea sandwiches, homemade cakes and tarts, and the most amazing freshly baked scones, still warm from the oven. One of the things that we love about the area is that there is as much or as little to do as one pleases. The Inn has bicycles available for the more energetic guests, as the area is relatively flat and great for biking. They also have sand chairs for those bound for the expansive beach on the adjoining Assateague Island. The nature refuge on Assateague can be explored by foot, car, or bicycle, depending upon one's inclination, and kayaks can be rented in town for one's water explorations. If you enjoy shopping, The Channel Bass Inn is within close walking distance to the eclectic mix of merchants on Main Street, as well as several wonderful restaurants. The back garden of the Inn beckons for your morning mediation, to slip into with a glass of wine in the evening, or to enjoy a good book before twilight falls. The rooms are all charming, comfortable and immaculate, but each one is appointed differently. Some have small refrigerators, and the room we normally stay in is a suite with a separate sitting area. This review would not be complete without a warning: be forewarned, this place can be addictive! We've just returned from our yet another visit – our 16th over the past 13 years!

If you have trouble with stairs this place isn't for you. But we enjoyed every minute of our three days there and rode bikes (provided) all over the island. The hosts and their daughter were warm, friendly, and helpful. Afternoon tea was a special treat and breakfast was great. They have several rooms at different prices that should meet anyone's budget. The room was very clean and the bedding was beautiful. There's also a lovely garden. We look forward to a return visit.
