About this property

Blue Heron Cottage On Smith's Island

Smith Island's newest jewel, newly constructed waterfront cottage that sleeps 6 comfortably. Relax on the front porch admiring the beautiful sunsets on the bay, or enjoy watching the waterman working on the water. There is a deep water dock located front of the cottage, where you can enjoy fishing and crabbing or dock to with your own vessel. Along with these, we offer kayaks without an additional fee. Come enjoy the history, wildlife, and the unique lifestyle of the islanders. You can live on island time! The ride on the ferry from Crisfield, MD is only the beginning of the experience. The ferry ride will be about a 40 minute beautiful ride through the Tangier sound. The boat captain will drop you off within walking distance to your destination.

Getaway boat weekend!
The stay was just perfect. We came with our own boat and it was easy to navigate to the house. The dock was 30 yards from the front door so easy to get out supplies to the house. (We did make use of the golf cart 😊). Neighbors are so friendly and they let us use their phone to call our family to let them know we arrived. Our cell phones did not work as it is a bit remote. We later found out that there is some coverage on the second floor of the house😁 Nevertheless we did not miss internet and cell phones for the entire weekend! This was one of our more adventuresome weekends to date. Just loved the island, the house, and the people!

Idyllic Escape
We booked this place on a whim and couldn't be happier. At the end of our first day we already regretted not staying longer. First, getting dropped off at the dock in front of the cottage was very convenient. The setting itself is perfect. If you are a science geek, nature-lover, or just want some peace and relaxation, this is your place. We spent hours sitting on the porch watching birds in the marsh, passing boats, and chatting with all the friendly neighbors. Taking the bikes into Ewell to sample Smith Island Cakes was a lot of fun. On our second day we kayaked (kayaks also included!) over to Tylerton for crab cakes. After a full day of paddling, the golf cart was a welcome feature to get into Ewell for an early dinner at the Bayside Inn. The cottage itself was very comfortable, modern, clean, and really just perfect. Also, do yourself a favor and order food from Ms. Landon......best crabcakes you'll ever have. We will absolutely come back!

Very relaxing
We love the cottage. It had everything you need already there. The golf cart was perfect! Everyday we took a ride to explore the island and talk to the locals. Everyone is so friendly.
