Independent in Tangier Island from NZ$319

"This is a quaint b&b-style hotel in a charming town. The room was comfortable and sufficient. There's no fridge or kettle in the room, but there's a Keurig downstairs and baked goods from the bakery next door. There was a pub across the street, and we thought the festivities might keep us up, but everyone turned in early and it wasn't an issue. Overall, a very pleasant stay."

"I like it there"

"We absolutely loved our stay on Smith island in this adorable cottage. Laura the host was very responsive, friendly and helpful. Being first timers to the island, I had several questions that were answered very quickly. The cottage was clean, well stocked (which is important for this type of unique experience) and decorated very cute. The local people were very friendly and we enjoyed the scenery of the island. We will definitely be back!"

"The houses are absolutely perfect! Exactly as described, and then some. Having 2 houses for a family vacation was perfect, giving everyone their own space with also providing plenty of space for family time. Plenty of dining space, both inside and out to accommodate a family of 14. The pool was great for the kids, crabbing was awesome right from the dock. With a well equipped game room for everyone to enjoy. The bonus for us was all the yard games we found in the equipment room. They have 4 corn hole games, crochet, pool floats and balls, pretty much almost anything you could want. The dock was perfect, we had a 19 foot and a 24 foot boat, and still had tons of room on the dock to crab or just sit by the water. The hosts, Lori and Tom were wonderful people. Lori came each morning, fairly early to tend to the pool and water the plants. She did what she needed to do and was on her way, never felt intrusive. We enjoyed the place so much we have already booked a week for next summer. Highly recommend, cannot say enough good about the houses and the hosts. "

"It was very good "

"John is an excellent host, very helpful and considerate. The cottage is well appointed, very clean and neat and is located on a little piece of paradise overlooking them a marsh on the edge of the Bay. It's quiet, peaceful, and we even greeted by a small family of deer as we returned in the evenings. No need to pick up paper goods, ziplocks, or plastic food storage containers because everything is right there, including a new Weber gas grill on the back porch as well as chairs to relax in and a patio table and chairs.The beds and pillows were very comfy and the water pressure in the shower was great! Big, fluffy towels and washing machine and dryer.It's a short drive over to Chincoteague but it's an easy trip through the countryside and we were able to leave the crowd on the Island each day and sleep peacefully at the cottage at night. John hooked us up with a wonderful local boat captain, C.L. Marshall, a knowledgable local with a passion for the community and life, and we enjoyed a trip to Tangier and to Smith Island where we ate fresh crab cake sandwiches and the famous Smith Island Cake of Maryland, for lunch in Tylertown at the Drum Point Mkt. We were able to book CL, Friday to watch the Pony Swim back to Assateague Island, because we got lucky and his group had an emergency and had to cancel. I can't thank John enough for his hospitality and guidance during our stay! 5Star Top Shelf host!!"

"Nice place "

"We took my parents (86 and 88) for a three night stay and loved it. The house is clean, the owners provide lots of information, and access to the dock is easy (important for my dad who loves to fish but has mobility issues). But the pool was the most amazing part. During afternoons that were far too hot for us to spend time on the dock, we could lounge in the pool while enjoying wonderful views. And it felt secluded and quiet! We loved our stay and are grateful to be able to make memories for my mom and dad.."

"Very nice property! Spacious rooms, great host"
