House was as defined but the host was very protective of her property. Also felt she was expecting us to follow her suggestions for transportation. Also, in description of property it should mention that shoes are not allowed in the house.

Chesapeake bay adventure From the moment We booked the cottage until we left, Kim and Mikey anticipated our every need to explore the community and make our memorable stay comfortable. Kim prepared 5 star meals delivered to our door on our timeline . We felt like royalty with our own personal chef tailoring the menu to accommodate my dietary needs. This is the place to stay for the Smith Island Experience. We plan to come back in the fall for the oysters. Truly a magical place .

The Idle Hour The house was neat, clean and had all we needed for the week. The hosts are exceptional people, that make sure your stay is as comfortable as could possibly be, along with being knowledgeable about the island and surrounding waters. We had a great week here and plan to return again in the fall!

My Stay at the Idle Hour Kim & Mickey are great people and excellent hosts! Kim picked me up at the dock and took me to the house. The house was clean when I arrived. I enjoyed the fresh air and the island scenery as well as the Smith Island bakery. I must mention that Kim did all my cooking as the restaurant was closed for the season. Her meals are to die for-don’t know how the restaurant stays open competing against her! I would definitely recommend staying at the Idle Hour and hope to return soon!

Peaceful Getaway Lovely home hosted by a very gracious couple. The hostess is an excellent cook meals requested we’re delicious. It is a big plus that she offers evening meals at a reasonable price. Very little available on island out of season. Having a kayak and bikes at our disposal was huge! Would stay here again and hope to do just that!

Marykim is the best We just finished a 2 day stay at the Idle Hour and wished we had more time. Our Smith Island stay would not have been the same without Marykim. She helped us with our bags, gave us amazing advice and was a terrific cook and hostess. Would not hesitate to book again.

Quiet and relaxing The property was amazing and any minor issue we had. They were right there to fix it. The island was welcoming, as well as just the right amount of quiet and slow down that we were looking for. I recommend anybody needing to detach disconnect to enjoy property for a couple of days or even longer. The hospitality was amazing. We will be back.
