Cottage a Princess Anne

“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”

“Wonderful hosts at a beautiful property. The cottage was quaint, safe and clean, just as advertised, and was perfect for a 2 day quiet get away. The overall property is well cared for and provides for a warm sense of community for the guests. ”

“This was a perfect place to stay, a bit far from our daily destination of Assateague but worth the drive for a place to unload and I unwind and relax without worrying about disturbing anyone, and with enough space for the whole family. We took advantage of the dock for crabbing and watching the sunset. Easy to get to, well stocked, easy to use and take care of, we would definitely stay here again.”

“Large kitchen and overall convenient location. Toilet paper holder in bathroom was missing so we had to chase the roll a few times after it fell off the back of the toilet. I'm guessing they can fix that easily. ”

“We had a wonderful stay. Enjoyed activity and dining suggestions provided by host. ”

“The property is beautiful and every space is very spacious and comfortably appointed. It is isolated but at the same time very close to Walmart and Food Lion, and just 15 minutes away from Wallops, and 30 from Chincoteague. The kitchen was extremely well supplied, including cooking oil, salt and other conveniences that we have seldom found in rentals (we had actually brought our own). Because of its location, the sky was full of stars. Only instructions for dealing with trash on...

“We had a great stay. The island is one of the safest feeling places I've ever been. House was immaculately clean upon arrival. Management company was highly responsive and very friendly. Very efficient and low stress process; great start to a low stresss trip.”

“Older home charm with modern conveniences. Good location and good views of the bay. We would like to stay again next year during the week of August 19th. From Sunday to Thursday, can we book now and pay in April?”

“This is a great house in a fabulous location! Our family of 5 (3 teenagers) had plenty of comfortable space to chill out. It is super convenient to Main Street, and we rented bikes so we didn't have to drive anywhere, including the beach. Owner is very responsive and easy to communicate with. Highly recommend!”

“Great place, cozy and easy to park and get around. ”

“Very cute house next to a park, perfect for kiddos. Wish we could have stayed longer!”
