Stunning and tranquil location
My boyfriend and I needed to get away. This house and location was just what we needed. Beautiful scenery, cozy home. We started a full week and I was sad to go at the end of our trip. We look forward to visiting again in the future!

Slice of heaven
The cottage was cute and clean! The sunrise from the bed was breath taking. We enjoyed waking up in the morning to check the crab pots out on the dock. Loved that we could tie our boat up on the dock. If you are looking for a disconnect from the busy life this is the place to be We will be back for sure

Amazing Stay! Amazing Home!
We can't say enough good things about our long weekend stay! This was our first time in the area, and it was so quiet, peaceful, and beautiful. The views from the home were stunning, and everything was clean, welcoming, and bright—exactly what we needed for a little getaway. My husband and our dogs absolutely loved it. We spent most of our time outdoors, but when we were inside, the home was cozy, warm, and comforting. We slept great every night. The host was communicative and helpful, and we can't wait to come back again and again!

This is a unique property with expansive water views. Quiet neighborhood with wonderful and helpful caretakers. We spent 3 nights with our 5 month old puppy and thoroughly enjoyed it. Had dinner in 2 nights and went to Old Salty’s one night for crabcakes. Very good service and great food. Brought our boat and had a great time. The cottage was immaculate and extremely well equipped.

Very clean small cottage in a beautiful spot. I was able to swim off the dock. There was plenty of outdoor space with comfortable Adirondack chairs. Very quiet at night and the beds were comfortable. Our host was most kind.

Peace and quiet
This little house was perfect for the 2 of us. So many thoughtful touches. Bottled water and ice on hand. First aid kit. Wi-Fi. Electric fireplace for ambience and actual heat. AC/ heat in each room that could be controlled separately. Comfy beds and living room furniture. Hot shower with great water pressure. Beautiful view- right on the water. Super quiet. Within 30 minutes to a hour of everything we wanted to see and do. Would love to stay there again.

Great Place
This is a great place to stay on the Eastern Shore. Loved the dock, fire pit, and bird watching. Our dog loved the yard as well and he made a friend with the neighbors dog on the other side of the fence. Very clean and comfortable cottage with everything we needed to enjoy our stay in the area. Liked it so much we have already booked another stay.

Our stay on Hooper’s Island
House was very cozy. Had all the amenities we needed! Right out the back door was an amazing view of the water and beautiful sunrise every morning. Very quiet. We loved it here and plan on coming back. Step outside the front door with your bike and take a ride along the breathtaking Cheasapeake.

Accuracy
I only gave 4 stars for accuracy due to the limitations of bikes and kayaks. Bikes had flat tires and kayaks were taken by neighbors (family I believe). Over all the property was cozy, clean, and cool. Wonderful location with dock! We loved the local low key feel of the area. Fun to explore somewhere new. This getaway is what we were looking for.

A quiet get away
Small cottage with breathtaking views of the river in the backyard. Beautiful remote area best seen by car. Bikes are provided but use with caution because you share the road with cars. The little things needed to be attended like air in the bike tires, cleaning the bathroom. Bring enough clothes for your stay because there is no washer and dryer. (We didn’t read their amenities) The communication was excellent. Overall we would definitely recommend this location for a quiet getaway.

Sitting on the dock of the bay.
We had a wonderful stay at the Waterfront Cottage on Hoopers Island. The cottage had beautiful views of the sunrise and beautiful water views. The cottage was well-maintained, with a small deck and dock that was perfect for relaxing and enjoying the outdoors. The kitchen is fully equipped, and there was enough space for two adults and th dog. Our host was friendly and helpful and ensured we had everything we needed for our stay. Responses to our questions were almost instantaneous. The next-door neighbor even introduced us to soft-shell crab preparation. We would recommend this cottage to anyone looking for a relaxing and enjoyable vacation on the water.

Waterside Paradise
Hi, My husband, 8 year old daughter and I had a wonderful week enjoying our stay at this waterside retreat. The house is clean, well decorated and quaint. We enjoyed meals on the deck overlooking the water and evening campfires by the private dock. Bird watching at the house was excellent! We saw a bald eagle! We loved exploring Blackwater Nature Preserve which is only a short, scenic drive through beautiful, open countryside about 20 minutes away. Only a few minutes from house is an excellent waterside restaurant, Salty’s. The ambiance is great and the seafood is delicious! Everyone is very friendly, waving as you pass and the area has a special small town feel that we hope is not lost over time with development. Overall it was a very relaxing, fun week full of great memories together.
