WOW! Seller is motivated and has drastically reduced. Act now while there is plenty of summer left. Chesapeake sunsets and Honga River sunrises. Watermen heading out at dawn. Ospreys, heron, and egrets hunting their dinner. A short walk to crabs harvested that very morning. Everything that makes the Eastern Shore unique -- the Bay, windswept marshes, seafood, its deeply rooted history -- in a magical place where time slows down so you can catch up. Check out the former Airbnb " Hoopers Island Victorian" listing to find out what makes the house and island so special, from the past visitor's reviews.

🌾 The Island
Two miles off Maryland’s Eastern Shore and 45 minutes from historic Cambridge lies Hoopers Island—one of the last inhabited islands in the Chesapeake Bay. Stretching ten miles and made up of three barrier islands, it’s home to pelicans, ospreys, great blue herons, egrets, cormorants, ibis, and only about 500 year‑round residents. Outdoors, the lifestyle truly comes alive--summer firepits under the stars, crisp fall evenings along the shoreline, and kayak adventures just moments way (kayaks included). Each season brings its own rhythm from sun-soaked summer days to the deeply restorative autumn season.
