	Basis of Presentation and Principles of Consolidation
	The unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements include the accounts of Otelco Inc. (the “Company”) and its subsidiaries, all of which are either directly or indirectly wholly owned. These include: Blountsville Telephone LLC (“BTC”); Brindlee Mountain Telephone LLC (“BMTC”); CRC Communications LLC (“CRC”); Granby Telephone LLC (“GTT”); Hopper Telecommunications LLC (“HTC”); Mid-Maine Telecom LLC (“MMTI”); Mid-Maine TelPlus LLC (“MMTP”); Otelco Mid-Missouri LLC (“MMT”) and its wholly owned subsidiary I-Land Internet Services LLC; Otelco Telecommunications LLC (“OTC”); Otelco Telephone LLC (“OTP”); Pine Tree Telephone LLC (“PTT”); Saco River Telephone LLC (“SRT”); Shoreham Telephone LLC (“ST”); and War Telephone LLC (“WT”).
	The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and all of the aforesaid subsidiaries after elimination of all material intercompany balances and transactions. The unaudited operating results for the three months ended March 31, 2015 are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the year ending December 31, 2015 or any other period.
	The condensed consolidated financial statements and notes included in this Form 10-Q should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and notes thereto in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2014. The interim condensed consolidated financial information herein is unaudited. The information reflects all adjustments which are, in the opinion of management, necessary for a fair presentation of the financial position and results of operations for the periods included in the report.
	Recent Accounting Pronouncements
	During 2015, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (the “FASB”) issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) 2015-01 through 2015-05. Except for ASU 2015-03 and 2015-05, which are discussed below, these ASUs provide technical corrections or simplification to existing guidance and to specialized industries or entities and therefore, have minimal, if any impact on the Company.
	In April 2015, the FASB issued ASU 2015-03, a guidance that simplifies the presentation of debt issuance costs by amending the accounting guidance to require that debt issuance costs related to a recognized debt liability be presented in the balance sheet as a direct deduction from the carrying amount of the related debt liability. The amendments are consistent with the accounting guidance related to debt discounts. This guidance is effective for the first interim or annual period beginning after December 15, 2015. Early adoption is permitted, and the Company is currently assessing the impact of this guidance on its condensed consolidated financial statements.
	In April 2015, the FASB issued ASU No. 2015-05, which provides guidance regarding whether a cloud computing arrangement includes a software license (FASB Accounting Standard Codification Subtopic 350-40). If a cloud computing arrangement includes a software license, then the entity should account for the software license element of the arrangement consistent with the acquisition of other software licenses. If a cloud computing arrangement does not include a software license, the entity should account for the arrangement as a service contract. The guidance will not change GAAP for an entity’s accounting for service contracts. This pronouncement is effective for fiscal years, including interim periods within those fiscal years, beginning after December 15, 2015. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of this guidance on the condensed consolidated financial statements.

Earnings Per Share [Text Block]	4	Net Income per Common Share
	Basic net income per common share is computed by dividing net income by the weighted-average number of common shares outstanding for the period. Diluted net income per common share reflects the potential dilution that would occur should all of the shares of Class A common stock underlying restricted stock units (“RSUs”), as well as all of the shares of Class A common stock, for which the Company has accrued an expense, that may be delivered pursuant to the purchase agreement relating to the Reliable Networks of Maine, LLC (“Reliable Networks”) acquisition, be issued.
	A reconciliation of the Company’s basic and diluted net income per common share calculation is as follows (weighted average number of common shares outstanding in whole numbers and net income in thousands):
			Three Months Ended March 31,

Commitments and Contingencies Disclosure [Text Block]	6	Commitments and Contingencies
	From time to time, the Company may be involved in various claims, legal actions and regulatory proceedings incidental to and in the ordinary course of business, including administrative hearings of the Alabama Public Service Commission, the Maine Public Utilities Commission, the Massachusetts Department of Telecommunications and Cable, the Missouri Public Service Commission, the New Hampshire Public Utilities Commission, the Vermont Public Service Board and the West Virginia Public Service Commission, relating primarily to rate making. In addition, the Company may be involved in similar proceedings with interconnection carriers and the Federal Communications Commission. Currently, except as set forth below, none of the legal proceedings are expected to have a material adverse effect on the Company’s business.
	Sprint Communications L.P. (“Sprint”), MCI Communications Services, Inc. (“MCI”) and Verizon Select Services, Inc. (“Verizon”) have filed more than 60 lawsuits in federal courts across the United States alleging that over 400 local exchange carriers overcharged Spring, MCI and Verizon for so-called intraMTA traffic (wireless phone calls that originate and terminate in the same metropolitan transit area). The lawsuits seek a refund of previously-paid access charges for intraMTA traffic, as well as a discount related to intraMTA traffic on a going-forward basis. One of the Company’s subsidiaries, MMT, was named as a defendant in two of the lawsuits that are being brought before the District Court for the Western District of Missouri (one filed on May 2, 2014 by Sprint and the other filed on September 5, 2014 by MCI and Verizon). In addition, one of the Company’s other subsidiaries, OTP, has been named as a defendant in a lawsuit relating to these issues filed by MCI and Verizon in the District Court for the District of Delaware on September 5, 2014. Because all of the lawsuits relating to these issues raise the same fundamental questions of law, the United States Judicial Panel on Multidistrict Litigation has consolidated the lawsuits in the District Court for the Northern District of Texas for all pre-trial proceedings. At this time, it is too soon to determine whether these lawsuits will have a material adverse effect on the Company’s business.

Shareholders' Equity and Share-based Payments [Text Block]	7	Stock Plans and Stock Associated with Acquisition
	During the three months ended March 31, 2014 and 2015, the Company did not grant any RSUs or other equity incentive awards. During the year ended December 31, 2014, the Company granted RSUs underlying 124,167 shares of Class A common stock. These RSUs (or a portion thereof) vest with respect to each recipient over a one to three year period from the date of grant, provided the individual remains in the employment or service of the Company as of the vesting date and, in selected instances, certain performance criteria are attained. Additionally, these RSUs (or a portion thereof) could vest earlier in the event of a change in control of the Company, or upon involuntary termination without cause. These grants are made primarily to executive-level personnel at the Company and, as a result, no compensation costs have been capitalized.
	The following table summarizes RSU activity as of March 31, 2015:
			RSUs		Weighted Average
					Grant Date
					Fair Value
	Outstanding at December 31, 2014			113,961	$	4.96

	CRC acquired substantially all of the assets of Reliable Networks on January 2, 2014. Pursuant to the purchase agreement relating to the Reliable Networks acquisition, Class A common stock was issued to the former owner of Reliable Networks in 2015 and will be issued to the former owner of Reliable Networks in 2016 and 2017, contingent on Reliable Networks achieving certain financial objectives and certain other conditions being satisfied, including that certain individuals must be employed by the Company or any of its subsidiaries and in good standing on the last day of the applicable year (the “Earn-Out”). For the year ended on December 31, 2014, the Company delivered 68,233 shares of Class A common stock to the former owner of Reliable Networks on March 12, 2015as a result of the Earn-Out.
	The following table summarizes the Earn-Out activity as of March 31, 2015:
			Shares		Weighted Average
					Earned Date
					Fair Value
	Earned at December 31, 2014			68,233	$	5.69

	Issued			68,233	$	5.69
	Forfeited or cancelled			—	$	—
	Earned at March 31, 2015			—	$	—
	Stock-based compensation expense related to RSUs and the Earn-Out was $161 thousand for the three months ended March 31, 2015. Accounting standards require that the Company estimate forfeitures for RSUs and the Earn-Out and reduce compensation expense accordingly. The Company has reduced its expense by the assumed forfeiture rate and will evaluate actual experience against the assumed forfeiture rate going forward. The forfeiture rate has been developed using historical performance metrics which could impact the size of the final issuance of Class A common stock. The Company has no history before 2014 with RSU forfeiture or Earn-Out stock forfeiture.
	As of March 31, 2015, the unrecognized total compensation cost related to unvested RSUs and unvested Earn-Out stock was $397 thousand. That cost is expected to be recognized by the end of 2017 for RSUs and 2015 for Earn-Out stock.
	As stated above, accounting standards require the Company to estimate forfeitures in calculating the expense related to stock-based compensation, as opposed to only recognizing these forfeitures and the corresponding reduction in expense as they occur.
