Waterfront Cottage in Beautiful Hoopers Island

Come relax and unwind at this updated two bedroom waterfront property. Bring your boat and tie off on our pier. Enjoy the sunrise relaxing on the back porch or waterside just a few steps from the back door. Take a short walk down to the bridge to explore the small beaches and collect shells and sea glass!

We just added a new fire pit located by the waterfront - bring your camp chairs for extra seating. Also new is a dock ladder at the end of the pier for ease of swimming, floating, kayaking etc.!

Our home is equipped with Smart TVs, Sonos Speakers, and FiberOptic Hi Speed Internet. There are also 2 adult bikes and a propane grill provided for your use.

Fishing and crabbing is allowed off of the pier. Hoopers Island General Store can help supply a temporary license, your tackle needs, or bring your own! Make sure you bring your fishing rod!

Please note Hoopers Island is a very remote location and does not have a supermarket on the island. The General Store has basic needs, but it is advised to stop on your way down to shop for food and drinks! Stop in Cambridge (30 mins from the property) on your way in for groceries. Cambridge is home of some great restaurants downtown and on the waterfront!

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.
