We strive for Hoopers Island Bayside Haven to truly be a "get away from it all" location, we do have WIFI and BASIC DISH TV w/ Netflix and you can add your own streaming services. We have plenty of books, DVDs, games, and puzzles. The Island, the Blackwater Refuge and the new National Park Harriet Tubman museum are the local sites for you to enjoy during your getaway and there are more in Cambridge and in nearby Easton.

Old Salty's is our local (within walking distance) seafood restaurant, where you can meet the locals as well as the folks that drive from various parts of the Eastern Shore to eat here. (Open Wed-Sun) Like them on Facebook to see what entertainment they have during your stay.

You may rent kayaks/canoes or go on a charter fishing boat tour, or just a scenic tour, right on the island. The land is flat, perfect for biking or going for a long walk from bridge to bridge.

We have crisp cool 100% Cotton linens, organic and/or made in the USA when we can find them. We steam clean all soft surfaces (pillows, mattresses, cushions, etc.) between guests, to keep down the allergens and just to offer you a comfortable stay. All bedding is encased in bug proof, allergen free materials. We are picky about where we stay, and apply these standards to our vacation rentals as well.
