Escape to Nature at Wales Family Cabin
Step away from the rush of everyday life and into the calm of our log-built woodland retreat. Nestled on acres of pristine forest just 3 miles from historic St. Michaels (and 8 miles from Easton), Wales Family Cabin offers the perfect balance of seclusion, comfort, and natural beauty.
Our cabin overlooks a 1-acre freshwater pond, where the rhythms of nature set the pace—watch herons glide across the water, listen to frogs at dusk, or cast a line as the sun dips low. Whether sipping your morning coffee on the porch or gathering at the fire pit under the stars, every moment is surrounded by quiet, peace, and the ever-changing backdrop of forest and sky.

Outdoor living at its best: grill, brick fire pit, covered & uncovered decks for all-weather enjoyment

Lovely St. Michael’s Retreat
Our family of five really enjoyed staying at Amy’s lovely cabin. There was plenty of space to spread out, and the many thoughtful touches, like games and puzzles, solar and motion sensor lights around the house and grounds, a s’mores station for the fire pit and binoculars for bird watching on the front porch, made it extra special.

Tranquility on the Eastern Shore
Everything about this property and the house was amazing, I highly recommend! The location was so close to town, yet felt very tranquil, quiet and peaceful. Even though the pond on the property is under restoration we still saw so many birds every day including heron and bald eagles. The house itself was very comfortable and spacious for the 7 of us plus two dogs and was spotless as well. There was plenty of space inside to spread out, as well as places to sit outside to enjoy in the nice weather.
We loved our stay and would 100% go back to St. Michales and stay at this property.

Great choice
We were looking for a last minute get away but was nervous to select a place with no reviews. After corresponding with the bew owner, we learned we were the first which did cause unnecessary worry. Amy was responsive through the entire visit. The house was spotless and located in close proximity to St. Michaels (minutes) as well as Easton and Tighlman. They had everything you needed in the kitchen to include a s'mores station. The woodland setting is beautiful and will be even more amazing when the pond reconstruction is done. The house is perfect for a family or couples sharing a space. There are multiple places to sneak off to includind a deck with a hammock and a coveted outdoor deck where we spent most of our time.
We brought our german shepards and found a dog bed, blankets, treats and bowls for the dogs.
I highly recommend this rental.
