Wylder Hotel Tilghman Island
Wylder Hotel Tilghman Island sits on 9-acres of lush grounds and private waterfront property. Home to Tickler’s Crab Shack, Bar Mumbo, and a private marina with 25 boat slips, the property offers a salt water pool, bocce court, and lawn games aplenty to maximize your R&R time. The bayside retreat is located on a 3-mile island on the Chesapeake Bay with a population of only approximately 800 residents. This small watermen’s town just may be the perfect retreat. Enjoy chef’s fresh dishes at our waterfront restaurant and then venture out on our bikes in the refreshing sea air breeze. After all, there’s an old fisherman’s tale that says “saltwater cures everything.”

Loved everything! We were very impressed with our stay and the many thoughtful details made it extra special. We were celebrating our anniversary and booked a cottage that had a view of the pool and the Chesapeake Bay. As we entered the grounds, the views and the quiet surroundings were so expansive. After a quick check in, we found our way to our room as we crossed the greens that separate our room from the Bay, the sauna area and the restaurant that was on the water. The room was so comfortable and spacious and the details like the big fluffy robes and the complimentary s’mores and was a unique touch. It was peaceful and relaxing on many levels. We went to Ticklers Restaurant and it was a great experience (it was so good, we wrote a separate review). Our evening ended with choosing between the many fire pits to roast our marshmallows, we chose one that had a local storyteller who shared interesting stories. It was a wonderful experience and we will be back.
Aug 3, 2026 · Google ReviewFrom the moment we arrived, we were greeted with exceptional hospitality by Ramon and Lauren! We needed a bit more room than the unit we originally booked and were graciously upgraded the next night to accommodate our needs by Ramon.. Ramon offered help with our luggage and checked in throughout our long weekend stay; always with a smile, while Lauren solved our television issue promptly. The grounds are very well maintained offering a serene place to relax and recharge. Everything from the bikes available to ride and explore, the sauna and cold plunge, relaxing poolside, and enjoying our morning coffee outside on the waterfront was exactly what our souls needed. We will definitely be back to stay!
Jul 28, 2026 · Google ReviewThis place was exactly what we needed to celebrate our anniversary while traveling with our toddler. The value for money felt very reasonable given everything included. There were plenty of activities for the whole family—our toddler had a blast with the pool, kayaking, and canoeing! Our room was clean, quiet, and relaxing. What set the experience apart was the staff. They were so kind and accommodated an early check-in and late check-out for us. They even gifted us a bottle of wine to celebrate our anniversary! Thank you Ramon and team. We will be returning!
Jul 28, 2026 · Google ReviewWe loved being next to the water, the fire pits with s’mores kits were a lot of fun. We really enjoyed how peaceful and quiet it is and the amenities like kayak, paddle boards, bikes, and the saltwater pool. The restaurant on site to dine by the water was also a plus! The room we had was a little small and could use a little updating but overall we enjoyed our stay.
Jul 26, 2026 · Google ReviewGreat atmosphere, pretty waterfront property. Kayaks, paddle boards and a great pool. Really friendly and professional staff, who make it like your staying with friends. Fantastic drinks, the bartender knows what he's doing for sure. the food and crab are perfect. This was our 2nd time and we will be back.

Jul 21, 2026 · Google ReviewI probably wouldn’t have left a review but then I met Isaiah who was a total gem. Throughout the day he helped with everything we needed: water, towels, ice for the cold plunge, and starting one of the fire pits. Not only did was he efficient but he was such a delight. We really enjoyed chatting with him and were so impressed by his work ethic. ||As others have mentioned the rooms leave a lot to be desired here. The service really made up for it.
Jul 18, 2026 · Google ReviewI worked in venue sourcing and event production for almost 10 years when I stumbled upon the Wylder Hotel in New York – it is a true gem & its sister property Wylder Tilghman Island was always a bucket list for me until last week. Just like the hotel New York, the staff & design here at Wylder Tilghman Island really makes the place shine. It’s small town lux. The front desk staff was sweet & warm for our last minute pop in. And Event Direct of Sales KD was amazing enough to chat with us. She was so responsive, knowledgeable, had an answer for every question, and zero-pressure—the ideal event partner. When we needed photo examples she sent them quickly and even more she was transparent about weather/renovation timelines (which a lot of hotels hide). Great spot for a corporate all hands/training spot or wedding venue, even greater staff.
