We had a good time at this property, pier is great for fishing and crabbing. Beds were comfortable, kitchen was equipped with everything we needed. The view from the living room was beautiful. The host was great at communicating to me fast and took care of all our needs! One thing that was a bit annoying was the screened in porch door was broken , the door wouldn't stay open when latched with the cylinder and wouldn't close securely, also the screen on the back of the porch was ripped. Silly things that seemed like a nice property would have fixed and not tried to tape back together. But overall a great weeks stay for us!

This house was the perfect place for our stay. We enjoyed the beautiful views every morning. The house itself was lovely and perfect for our weekend trip. We loved the location too and took time to explore the island and town of St Michael’s.

Beautiful view, beautiful home, very clean and well stocked! My family of 6 (2 adults, 3 teen boys and 1 younger boy) enjoyed 4 nights/3 days at this lovely home on Tilghman Island. The island itself is tucked away and very slow paced. We didn’t try any of the local restaurants (some were closed M-W), but there are a few limited options. There is a marina where you can rent fishing/crabbing equipment as well as book charters. We mostly fished from the dock (with very little luck) and enjoyed walking the gravel road, kayaking and paddle boarding.The home itself is recently updated and shows. We grabbed basic groceries on the way in and were pleasantly surprised to find how well stocked the kitchen was with oils, spices, dishes, etc. The beds were all clean and comfortable, although the primary bedroom mattress was a bit firmer than we’d like. The only thing I think was missing was a full length mirror or two- other than that we had everything we needed for a relaxing stay.The communication with the property manager was also very easy and she always responded in a timely manner. We had a few questions here and there and found her to be very helpful.Saint Michaels is an easy 20 minute drive from the house and a super cute town! We loved the ice cream at JoJo’s and the coffee from Eat Sprout (they also have a great assortment of baked goods/GF items). I wish we had more time to check out the other restaurants there!Overall- wonderful stay and would highly recommend.
