Many rooms offer private balconies or terraces, free-standing gas fireplaces, and soaking tubs, creating a decidedly serene ambiance.

"The Wildset Hotel, which is rewriting the rules on the country inn. 'Once I did the restaurant (Henrietta Red), I wanted to do more,' says Lager. 'I said that I would love to get my hands on an old hotel or bed and breakfast and do something different with it.' Her husband’s family has owned a home in St. Michaels since the 1970s and when the property became available it was kismet. 'I’ve been coming here for more than 20 years, and I knew St. Michaels would be the perfect place to do this—utilizing our talents,' she says." - Nancy DePalma
