Waterfront Cottage in Beautiful Hoopers Island

Enjoy the quiet and serenity of Hoopers Island from our cozy waterfront cottage. Take a break from the hustle and bustle of day-to-day life in this little town.
Enjoy the sunrise relaxing on the back porch; sip your morning coffee or pick some local crabs on the back porch. Take a short walk down to the bridge to explore the small shore line to collect shells and sea glass!

Have dinner around the fire pit located by the water - bring your camp chairs for extra seating. We have an extended dock at the end of the pier for ease of relaxing, swimming, floating, kayaking, fishing, crabbing etc.!

Our home is equipped with Smart TVs, Sonos Speakers, and FiberOptic Hi Speed Internet. There is an outdoor propane grill provided for your use.

Fishing and crabbing are 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! We do have a few crab pots that are available for use tied off along the pier.

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!

Blackwater Refuge & Harriet Tubman Underground Railroad Visitor's Center are both on your drive onto the island and worth planning a visit!

Happiness in Hoopers Island!

The cottage was perfect for my husband and I. It was clean, cozy and a perfect location with the dock. We were able to bring our boat, fish, and crab. It was incredibly relaxing! The neighbors were extremely nice and very helpful!

A Sweet, Comfortable Stay

This is a small, sweet, comfortable cottage, and was just perfect for our brief getaway from the hurly-burly. The house is very well equipped, especially the kitchen, so cooking the local seafood was easy. The decor (loved the faux fireplace) was charming and welcoming, down to the live Poinsettia plant on the table when we got there.

The house was a perfect size for the 3 of us. My grandson enjoyed crabbing and fishing off the dock. We rented bikes nearby and went for a nice bike ride around Blackwater Refuge. Loved the sunrises and sunsets and the extremely peaceful location. We even had a little visitor. My grandson named the little kitty Hooper.
Sunrise was beautiful.
