Cottages in Tangier Island

'All the reviews accurately reflect what we experienced, as well. '

'The cottage was beautifully restored and decorated. I could imagine the generations of families that enjoyed the place. Our hosts were wonderful and very helpful.The only downside was the outside deck has not been restored.I would definitely recommend this place to someone seeking a quiet getaway.'

'This cottage was the perfect little getaway, very cozy and intimate with everything you could possibly need for a weekend away from the world. The beach was beautiful with great sand and nice water, and the kayaks were a treat to use. The house was equipped with everything we could have needed and more. Would love to come back!'

'Took my grandson for a weekend trip to Smith Island to celebrate his HS graduation. My daughter, also, accompanied us, since I am a 90 year old "Grammy", and need some assistance. Our cottage was clean, comfortable and had all of our needs. The host, Kim, was extremely attentive, and made our dinner the night we arrived so we could just relax. I would highly recommend Idle Hour as the place to stay on Smith Island. Pat Reynolds, Ellicott City, MD'

'Pictures and description don’t do the views enough justice. Having the Bay in front and the pond/inlet behind you allowed you access to whatever kind of water day you wanted. Neighbors were incredibly friendly, knowledgeable, and helpful. We enjoyed the beach, kayaking out back, and the multitude of searing options/fire pits to enjoy the view. Would love to stay again!'

'Great clean place, beautiful views and fun activities!Owner is very responsive and communicates often. Bring your bug spray anywhere you go on the Eastern shore.Highly recommend for small family.'
