OFF SITE LODGING
The Field Station is eight miles from Chincoteague Island, a busy beach town with plenty of hotels, motels, bed and breakfasts, and campgrounds. October is still a prime tourist season, so accommodations on Chincoteague will be priced higher and will be harder to find. Book early to ensure your space.
