If you are looking for a quiet getaway on the Eastern Shore of Maryland, look no further than Hooper’s Island and the Riverside Lodge. Whether you are looking for a quiet weekend for you and your spouse or a vacation for the entire family that includes the outdoors, the Chesapeake Bay and the Honga River, this is the perfect place to visit. This area is addictive… if you visit once, chances are you will want to return.
Lodging
If you wish to be pampered during your visit you can enjoy an all-inclusive package at the lodge with traditional eastern shore dining and drinks. We have five double occupancy rooms with private baths and each room can be set up with two single beds or a king size bed. Our staff will be on hand to provide you with all the creature comforts of home.
If you would rather enjoy a more private setting, our cottage is located on the waterfront of the bay. The cottage has a large screened porch, a huge yard, three bedrooms, a large kitchen, living room, and a full bath that includes a washer and dryer. The cottage will sleep up to eight people. The sunsets at the cottage can be as picturesque as any you will find. You can bring your own food for preparing meals in the full kitchen or enjoy dining at Old Salty’s restaurant which is our favorite restaurant located on the island. The Hooper’s Island General Store is also close by and they provide deli services, groceries, beer, tackle, gas, and hardware among other items.
