The location and view of the bay and sunsets are outstanding. The interior is also beautiful, especially in the living room and kitchen/ dining room areas. The two bedrooms and baths are very accomodating with great views . The 3rd bedroom/office doesn't have a very comfortable bed-more like a futon , but has a bathroom down the hall.
I have stayed here twice now and totally enjoyed my stay both times. Both times, however, I had difficulty operating the TV setup , particularly for Sports unless you choose to sign up for a so called 30 day trial with a Sports network, like FUBO. The new owners are planning to uncomplicate the setup and were in direct communication with us trying to fix the limited access issues.
All in all, it is a beautiful, well equipped getaway. Check out Marker Five restaurant for food and drink-just down the road.

We loved the spacious clean house, quiet neighborhood, and the many sunsets we enjoyed from the screen porch. Three suggestions to improve guest experience are to add a passcode lock to eliminate stops in St Michael’s to pick up and drop off the key; get a better mattress/futon and proper bed pillows for the pull-out bed in the study (otherwise it doesn’t really work as a bedroom); and add a serrated bread knife to the otherwise well-stocked kitchen. But those suggestions aside, this was among our best VRBO experiences.

This was the second year in a row that we stayed at this property. The house, the location, and the view are all first rate. Would definitely recommend this house and hope to return.

This was the best VRBO property we have rented so far. It was very clean, well stocked, accurately described and just so very nice. We would highly recommend this house for anyone who wants a relaxing vacation on the Chesapeake Bay. The screened in porch was our favorite location and it was so comfortable for sitting and dining.

Our family of four had a wonderful stay at sunset cottage over Thanksgiving week. The home was just as pictured and described. We especially enjoyed the open floor plan for kitchen, dining room and living room. The water view from these spaces was fantastic, and the front garden was a special treat. Sunset cottage was the perfect spot to get away from it all for a few days!

Beautiful spot on the water. House was so well equipped and property manager was responsive for a couple of questions that I had. Comfortable and cozy. The owner left wood for the fireplace! Three bedrooms so we were able to each have our own space. Quite lovely.

The home was beautiful, comfortable and a welcome respite from a busy time in our life. There are outdoor/ indoor living areas for solitude or you can enjoy each other's company. My husband and I went with our best friends. We have stayed in the area many times over the years but enjoyed being on Tilghman for its uniqueness but proximity to St. Michaels. Property manager very responsive when Internet went down briefly. Highly recommend. We will come back!

Easy check in. Beautiful views. Comfortable accommodation. Great kitchen. Private dock. Quiet neighborhood. Two wings separated by living area, one with one bedroom en suite, the other with 2 bedrooms and baths. This suited us perfectly (grandparents with married couple and grandchild). Fishing and crabbing was not very good off the dock. The water is quite shallow and the channel is a way off. We did not try at night. Also, the kayaks do not have an easy in-out launch.
5.0
This property was amazing! A perfect setting for a family getaway. The kids closet was packed with all kinds of fun things for kids, the yard and dock provided hours of play and fun in the fresh air. The house itself is GORGEOUS, clean and well stocked. All of the beds were very comfortable. The manager Lexi was amazing and super easy and friendly to work with. We will he back!
5.0
Beautiful property inside and out. Gorgeous sunsets from your deck. We all loved the layout and furnishings. Only negative is in 1 guest bedroom there is an uncomfortable and unattractive trundle bed. Also, we had difficulty figuring out operation of TV, directions inaccurate-had to have someone come over and reconnect sound and change operating directions.

Beautiful, quiet property -- perfect for a getaway!
We spent 10 glorious days and enjoyed every minute (despite some high temperatures!). There are wonderful spots to kick back and relax including the screened in porch, the patio with wooden chairs, and the little reading nook in the back of the living area. We especially enjoyed sitting on the dock and catching the fresh breezes in the morning and evening hours. My wife loved reading down there and I spent much time with the binoculars checking out all of the passing ships. Only (minor) issue was the internet service dropping intermittently; however, the hosts provided good instructions on how to re-boot the system which worked each time we had to reboot. Also worthy of comment was the good quality of the beds -- an often overlooked but critically imporant compoment for an extended stay. All of the appliances were modern and in good working order and the place was immaculately clean upon our arrival. We would not hesitate to stay her in the future (and plan to!).

We stayed at this beautiful, spacious home for my niece's wedding at the near-by Wylder Inn. Our group was two sisters and their spouses, plus an adult cousin. The property is private, with lovely landscaping, plenty of hangout spaces for everyone, and a well-stocked kitchen. Most rooms have spectacular bay views. I'd stay here again in a heartbeat!

Wonderfully large and immaculate cottage entered through a gated private garden. On opening the substantial wooden front door you are greeted by a wall of windows in the great room and high end kitchen providing an unobstructed view of the bay towards North Beach 10.5 miles to the west. Between Poplar Island to the North and the cottage lays the channel into Knapps Narrows through we watched watermen coming and going. The owner, Brenda, was extremely accommodating and worked tirelessly to get the quirky internet connection fixed. We will be returning to this very comfortable and beautiful cottage. The only issue, if you are chefs, as are we: is that the very fine kitchen was missing a knife sharpener. We loved the place.

We wanted a place close to Cambridge for Ironman Maryland, but also a little removed from the race hustle and bustle. This was perfect. House was great, and St. Michael’s was a fun town. The folks at the Tilghman Market were wonderful.

This is the third time my family has rented this house. We love the location, the water/sunset views and how comfortable the house is. We enjoy cooking and the open kitchen/living area makes it easy to socialize while preparing meals from the wonderful seafood available in nearby markets. A great place to stay and easy access to St. Michaels.
