This is a very nice hotel. It is small, quiet and relaxing. The grounds are well kept with Adirondack chairs and other comfortable chairs around the property. Almost all of the rooms have a water view as the hotel sits on a channel leading to the bay. You can watch the boats go by and see the Osprey guarding a nest and diving for food. Our second floor room was big enough and comfortable. The bathroom and and bedroom were large and clean enough and the room had a small balcony facing the water. The only thing missing was a refrigerator but the hotel had plenty of ice available for a cooler It is outside the tourist area of St. Michael's Island so it is about a 15 minute drive. If you want a relaxing place to stay, this is it.

Great, relaxing trip!

We loved our stay at the Tilghman Island Inn. We had a wonderful dinner at the adjoining restaurant on our first night, loved the beautiful views from our room, enjoyed walks all over Tilghman, swam in the pool, and did a lot of relaxing. Sherry and Yasmin were two standout staff members that took great care of us, and all the staff were solid. Thanks!!!

We celebrated my daughters 16Th birthday in Maryland and had the pleasure staying here. They decorated the room with balloons and a card which was so amazing. The rooms are very clean, decorated lovely and the property is beautiful. They though of every detail right down to cold water at the pool and sunscreen if you needed some! I cant wait to go back and see the beautiful fall colors and stay at the inn again:)

Inn was empty when we arrived. There was no way to a glass of wine or food. Room is clean but it has a loud minisplit and a dehumidifier that cycles in the bathroom. The most annoying thing was a transparent glass door between the bathroom and bedroom making privacy impossible for a family traveling together. We used a towel to block the door partially. Beds were comfortable. Breakfast was awful. I regret that we paid twice the cost of a chain hotel.

Early Season Views, Clean, Great Service, No Pool

My husband and I came to stay here for a night for a brief honeymoon/getaway. Hotel was impressively clean and bed quite comfortable. Jet tub was awesome, water views were great, upstairs patio lovely and well worth it. We had a great time. That being said - we were disappointed that the pool was closed :( This was one of the main things we were looking forward to and we were sad to see that it was drained. Didn’t find this information on the website and wish we had known or called ahead. Restaurant was ALSO closed on Thursday nights, and the box breakfast was … lacking? Make sure you also call ahead to other nearby areas if you want to do water sports - I guess this time of year very little is open or available. Learned that the hard way. Even so, we had a lovely time - Sherry up front (and my mom) surprised us with some champagne, chocolates, and fruit. Delicious!!

The room and beds were comfortable. The staff and owners were helpful. The property is in excellent condition. The TV and Wi-Fi are good. Nearby dining options are limited in the off-season, however, St. Michaels is less than 20 minutes away. Our room overlooked water with beautiful sunsets.
