Creek House Guidebook
City/town information
This quaint, deep-water port town has over 300 years of history. Onancock has a wonderful mix of restaurants, shopping, galleries and historic sites to enjoy. Leave your car parked or your boat moored and walk along the tree-lined streets filled with grand Victorian houses. Come to the Eastern Shore to get away from it all but come into town for a taste of civilization.
