Fun and quiet
Our vacation on Chesapeake Bay was wonderful. The house was clean and comfortable. It is an older home, but we loved the character and charm. There is a very large yard for playing, bikes and some board games/puzzles that we enjoyed. The island was very quiet so made for a relaxing vacation. The home came with kayaks, and we had a blast kayaking with our 2 and 4 year old on the ocean. I would highly recommend this home for a big gathering or small family like our trip. We felt so rested after our stay. The home is in a very quiet town. The closest store or restaurant is about 20 minutes away so grab your groceries before driving in. We did a Walmart pick up order in Cambridge so we ordered ahead, they brought to the car, and we were off again. There was a full kitchen and outdoor grill so we cooked some delicious meals. Oh, and don’t forget bug spray for outside play since the home is on the bay.

Good rental but August is very buggy
Property itself was good, new kitchen which was great and central AC a plus, and getting info about it before we checked in was super easy. The house was clean when we got there. However, the internet was reallllly slow. It was impossible for my husband to work at all from there because of it. And, while not the property’s fault, we went in August and the mosquitoes and jelly fish were rampant! Overall, though we had a great time and were glad to get away.

Great location for our photography weekend
We came for a weekend of photography and had an enjoyable stay. We had all that we needed and plenty of room. We would certainly book another stay at the house for another girls photography weekend.

Time to reconnect
Our time on Hoopers Island was a great time to be together with our children and grandchildren. The house was as described (the kitchen well stocked) and afforded a spacious place to be together without distraction of the internet because there is no WiFi. We enjoyed using the kayaks on the river putting them in from the back yard. Hoopersville is a quiet place, perfect for our game playing family and allowing relaxing time to read and talk and to enjoy wonderful meals together. Had no luck fishing but got crabs for picking at Rippons There are biting flies so be prepared with insect repellent. Our guest contact person was readily available by text to address any concerns.
