Nice spot with access to downtown St Michaels. The only unfortunate part of our stay was the restaurant was closed for renovations. Staff was kind and helpful during our stay and the room was very clean. Property right on the canal; so perfect for boaters too!! Also- dog friendly, we appreciated the accommodations for us and our pup.

It was a great spot though i wish we had found it sooner. When we stayed in May they had only just sold the property abd the new owners decided not to open the restaurant. This was mentioned on reserving it but should have been more prominent. But the staff was exceptionally nice, even with us getting in way past the normal check in time. Even though we got there clise to 11 pm due to traffic tobthe island there was stil someone to let us in.
