The walls are paper thin. You could hear your neighbors talking at normal volumes, hear them snore and the tv's were very loud and attached to the paper thin walls. In addition to the noise, the mattress was rock solid and the pillows were hard and small. Needless to say, we didn't sleep very well.

We had a good quiet stay on a cold and rainy February night, we ate at Ticklers and the food was very good. In the morning we went to a nearby country style breakfast joint called, “two of by sea”, pretty darn good too and the staff was great. I’d like to see this place peak season. Everything in the hotel was recently updated, waterfront, the room was clean and came with a bottle of wine, my wife and I had a great night and no complaints. The property is an old style water town type resort, sort of bring back to a hotel/bed and breakfast of the mid 20th century. Very unique place, we will visit again.

It is located approximately 15 min outside St. Michael’s. We had a waterfront bungalow and did not have a minimum 2 or more night stay which we prefer. Restaurant has water views and food was very good. The rooms very clean, beautiful property, quiet and staff very accommodating. Also they had a waterfront fire pit blazing and ready for us to enjoy. There are beautiful views and fresh air and outdoor pit games, too. Will definitely book here again.

Hotel was sub par. Rooms were small not furnished properly. No night tables not other common amenities. Front desk was rarely staffed. Hard to get supplies for the room. In sum I would not recommend this hotel for the price

When I booked the days there, I was not aware that Monday and Tuesday the restaurants were closed. Also, all of the restaurants in the area were closed on Monday and Tuesday as well. I had to drive 16 miles to get dinner at 16 miles back to my hotel. I was disappointed with that.

Beautiful property. Our room was a bit cramped for 3 people. A double and a twin but enjoyed the many areas availble to relax outside. A mini fridge would have been nice too. Staff was very friendly and helpful. Hope to return there one day

The common areas were very nice and the staff was lovely, but the rooms need work. The a/c was very loud, there was a musty smell, no shelves in the bathroom, the door had large gaps, fixtures were very old and cheap, etc. This place has clearly been given a makeover, but it's skin deep.

We love the Wylder. This was our 4th trip. Not a 5 or 4 star experience, but the setting and the dog friendliness make it worth the smaller hotel rooms with bathrooms in a severe need of an upgrade. Keith, bartender at Tickler's, the onsite restaurant and crab deck, is awesome. Everyone super friendly. Tilghman feels like the North Fork of Long Island from 25 years ago. Will be back. Don't miss the Tilghman Country Store or Two If By Sea for breakfast.
