Shepherd’s Run has a great gym and pool area, and the rooms are fine but small. What surprised us is that it is essentially a wedding venue rather than a true hotel. Much of the property is devoted to wedding reception areas and a tent. We were told the nearby nature reserve was not accessible by foot and that it was filled with bugs. The winery is not yet open because the vines are so new, so they serve Long Island wines at reception. Our room had one tiny wastebasket next to the toilet, no bottled water, and we were told we could have maid service once during our four night stay. Our stay was fine, but it does feel like you’re in a conference center or wedding venue.

This is our second time staying at Shepherd's Run and we loved it again! We stayed during the week (with our 2 kids) and it is very quiet. I know there are weddings there on the weekends. The Inn and grounds are beautiful, the wine and charcuterie boards are amazing, the rooms are big and nicely updated with modern finishes and the breakfast is delicious!! I can't say enough good things about this wonderful Inn!

I loved how unique the Shepherd's Run property is. My King room in the Manor was quite nice (comfy bed, big bathroom, huge walk-in shower). The breakfast buffet offered a nice variety of foods with slightly different variation both mornings. I'm looking forward to staying at Shepherd's Run again so I can try their own wine!

Lovely and Comfy

Really pretty hotel with comfy rooms, lovely to grab a glass of wine or two and sit on the patio or in one of the inside sitting areas. Convenient to local spots including the beach and town.

We checked in a little later than anticipated. Our host was absolutely gracious. He showed us directly to the room, and did not forget the complimentary glass of wine! (Hint, hint- Pinot is the way to go!)

Not worth the price.

Pros: excellent complimentary breakfast with local coffee, comfortable beds. Cons: the rooms are nice but not worth the price tag. No restaurant onsite, no microwave in the room. No garbage can in room other than tiny one in bathroom. No cable, just streaming services and spotty wifi. Concrete floors in rooms and hallways. No desk in room either. I could have had all those things at a different hotel for a cheaper price.

I think I most enjoyed the atmosphere at Shepard's Run. This is not your run of the mill hotel stay. The rooms are modern and clean, and I appreciated the spacious bathroom. It was nice to enjoy a non-traditional Continental breakfast each morning with the surrounding, peaceful views either outdoors in the courtyard or throughout the different lounge areas. Unfortunately, we didn't take advantage of the wine tasting but did enjoy the complimentary wine. The only drawback was that the access to the hot tub closed early. I would recommend starting here.
