This home has cozy bedrooms and spacious common areas along with all of the things a home should have. We absolutely loved the location on Tilghman Island even though our Family Reunion festivities were closer to St. Michaels. Most everything in this village is within walking distance and everyone we met were interesting and friendly.

Can't wait to go back
The owners and property manager were so supportive of our error in booking and we were very thankful for their kindness! Although we were not able to stay on the weekend we booked we will most certainly return! This island is the perfect getaway and has become a special place for our family. Till next time Tilghman...

Perfect getaway with friends
We had a wonderful time and the house was perfect for our needs. We especially enjoyed the large upstairs living room where we could spread out and watch movies. It doesn't look like much from the outside but the inside is really nice. I'd stay again!

Beautiful home in the heart of Tilghman Island
Harbor House is a beautiful and tranquil home steps from the water in the heart of Tilghman Island. The house itself was very clean, beautifully decorated, and spacious. Our family of 6 enjoyed the close proximity to dining spots, the local country store, marinas and public fishing & crabbing piers. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay!

Phenomenal Place
We had the best stay. It was our first time staying in that area and visiting. We enjoyed it so much. And this rental was beautiful and the location was perfect. The pictures listed don't do this place justice at all.
If we had to give a recommendation or two it would be to have cushions on the deck patio furniture and something to distract bugs. Hanging out outside wasn't fun with that.
