Book a Tangier Island Cottage

"The place is amazing. The pictures on the site do not do the property justice as it is absolutely amazing. Can’t wait to stay there again."

"We had such a great time on this trip! The house had everything we could need and more and Michelle was super responsive with any questions we had. We loved getting to grill, use the kayaks, and go to the nearby beach. Would definitely come back and stay here again!"

"A beautiful little cottage with a beautiful beach front access and plenty of amenities."

"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"

"Can’t say enough good things about this cottage. Great location and accommodations!"

"The island is a beautiful and peaceful. Everyone there is so friendly and helpful. The cottage was a very clean and comfortable place to stay. We had 3 adults and 2 huskies and the home was very spacious. It is close to the docks, restaurant, and grocery store. We enjoyed our stay. If you’re looking for a peaceful and relaxing getaway this is the place to go! "
