Charming Summer Cottage – Relax and Unwind Here!

Summary:
Tucked away at the peaceful tip of Tilghman Island, Skipjack Cottage sits in a neighborhood where life slows down . Here, neighbors wave from their porches, and the occasional boat motor hums in the distance as watermen head out for the day’s catch. The roads are quiet and shaded, perfect for an early morning stroll or an afternoon bike ride. It’s the kind of place where stars still shine brightly, crickets sing at night, and time feels like it stretches just a little bit longer — a true escape from the noise of everyday life.

Talbot County Licnesure: STRN-24-72

The Space:
Step into a bright and open living space, ideal for gathering with family and friends. The fully stocked kitchen and adjacent dining area make meal prep and shared dinners easy and enjoyable. Just off the kitchen, the back patio invites you to dine outdoors or relax with a glass of wine in the salty breeze.A cozy den provides a second living area — perfect for game nights, quiet reading, or streaming your favorite shows. Upstairs, you’ll find three inviting bedrooms and a shared full bathroom — a comfortable setup for families or groups.


Just a short stroll from the cottage is the community pier, where you can launch a kayak, cast a fishing line, or try your hand at crabbing.

Quiet, serene surroundings!

If you are looking for a quiet, serene, comfortable setting for your upcoming visit to Tilghman Island, I’d highly recommend the Skipjack Cottage. While the exterior of the cottage is a tad weathered, the interior was lovely with a great combination of restoration and contemporary appointments. All three bedrooms were nicely decorated, clean and comfortable. The modern kitchen has all that’s needed for meal preparation and dining. We would go back in a heartbeat!

Wonderful stay at charming cottage

We had a wonderful stay here. It is so charming, beautiful inside, very clean and fit perfectly with the vibe of the island. Loved being able to walk to the pier to go crabbing. You will love this place. Highly highly recommend!

Nicely restored house in a great location

The skipjack cottage was amazing. Our group of friends have been exploring different regions of the Eastern Shore for about two decades and we'll definitely be back to Tilghman Island. We appreciated that the house had a full kitchen (complete with utensils, implements, and staples) and tasteful finishes and furnishings throughout the house. The neighborhood was calm and quiet, the public dock was a short walk away for fishing and relaxing near the water, and the low speed roads on Tilghman Island were perfect for biking. Thanks for offering this property

Summer family vaca

The house was very cute, kept old style southern charm with many modern updates. Great space for a family trip. The beds were very comfortable. Minor plumbing issues towards the end of our trip. We unfortunately picked a very hot week to visit so there was not much to do nearby, (closest public beach an hour away) but thankfully the house was well air conditioned. The neighborhood was quiet, beautiful, well kept, neighbors were very friendly. We enjoyed waking down to the dock several times a day and sitting on the porch people watching.

Peaceful & Quaint

Skipjack Cottage was a perfect long weekend getaway with the girls kind of place. It was close enough to St Michael's to go in for dinner but wonderful to come home to our quiet spot. Breakfast at Two If By Sea is a must and so close to the cottage. Loved our stay.
