Our family and friends were at the Wylder hotel Tilghman island for our son’s wedding. What an amazing place to have a wedding weekend. The staff was so helpful, considerate, worked hard to make it all be perfect, assisted with all our requests, and made our experience outstanding. It was a beautiful water front venue with many amenities…. A pool, bikes, kayaks, several fire pits, multiple places to hangout to enjoy and relax. The food was excellent and service so accommodating. Many thanks to KD the wedding planner and big shout out to Stacey, who worked so hard to take care of everyone’s needs. What a fabulous wedding weekend!! 🥰

What a charming hotel. Although the room we stayed in was tiny, it was very clean and the friendliness of the staff was mighty. We were greeted warmly when we arrived and the staff were very attentive to our needs. Asia at the front desk helped us plan out an excursion around D.C (which was an awesome experience). The restaurant staff have a great sense of humor and made us feel very welcome. We will definitely stay here for our next visit!

We had the best family getaway at Wylder Hotel! The views of the Chesapeake Bay were gorgeous, and I loved eating crabs by the water. My son and I had a blast in the heated pool and playing lawn games. We loved playing connect four together and loved the large domino’s. So Fun! The swing was absolutely perfect too! We loved making s’mores around the firepit at night. This was our first mommy son getaway together and we will cherish all the fun memories we had here this summer!

I think this hotel is really trying to revamp their reputation and draw in more clients. It’s very cute, the people who work at the reception are lovely! Rooms have been updated. Free breakfast was decent. I stayed here with friends to celebrate a 40th birthday. It was decent and we made the most of it but frankly would not recommend and will not be back. We had a terrible experience at the restaurant, Ticklers. I think they need to work on the guest relations. We had a friend lock herself out of her room around midnight and the reception room was locked and no one answered the phone. She ended up staying in a friends room, thank God we had other rooms booked or she would’ve been sleeping in the car! At breakfast the next morning we still had not heard back from the hotel regarding the lock out. Very average experience.

A Hidden Gem on the Water – Peaceful, Charming, and So Relaxing! We absolutely loved our stay at the Wylder Hotel in Tilghman Island. It’s the perfect place to unplug and unwind. Quiet and quaint, with just the right mix of rustic charm and modern comfort. The entire property is spotless, and the staff was incredibly warm and welcoming throughout our stay. One of the highlights was the heated saltwater pool — the temperature was absolutely perfect, making it a relaxing spot to float and soak in the peaceful surroundings. We also took advantage of the complimentary bikes and had a great time exploring the little island at our own pace. The Adirondack chairs lining the water’s edge were a favorite — watching the sunset from there was pure tranquility. We also enjoyed drinks on the deck and were pleasantly surprised with a fun s’mores package waiting for us at check-in. These thoughtful touches made everything feel extra special. Dinner at Tickler’s Crab Shack was a standout — the crab dip was easily the best I’ve had in a long time! We visited midweek, which made the experience even more peaceful. If you’re looking for a relaxing escape with beautiful views, friendly people, and all the little extras that make a stay memorable, I highly recommend the Wylder Hotel. We left feeling refreshed and can’t wait to return!

Truly Magical Honeymoon Stay|My wife and I spent a night at the Wylder Tilghman Inn to celebrate our honeymoon, and it turned out to be one of the most meaningful experiences of our lives.||From the moment we arrived, the staff treated us with incredible warmth and care. What really stood out was how genuine everyone was — not just polite, but truly kind.||I want to give special thanks to Lauren T., who went above and beyond in a way we’ll never forget. She made us feel like we truly mattered. She even gifted us a bottle of champagne to celebrate our first night as a married couple. That moment moved my wife to tears. It wasn’t just the gesture — it was how sincerely it was given. Lauren, thank you. You made us feel so welcome and celebrated.||We also had a great experience with Jerrel G. and Ramon S., as well as the restaurant team. Everyone was friendly, helpful, and made our brief stay feel full of warmth and connection. The food was excellent, the atmosphere was relaxing, and we left feeling completely cared for.||If you’re thinking about visiting Tilghman Island, this is the place to go. It’s not just about the beautiful setting — it’s the people that make it truly special.||Thank you again to the Wylder team. We will carry this memory with us for the rest of our lives.||V/R,|| Michael & Eliana

Second time staying at the Wylder, one of our top favorites! We love the character and charm the Wylder has to offer. We stayed in a king bungalow, spotless clean with tons of room. Bedding is comfy and upgraded. We love the salt water pool with gorgeous views of the bay, classic beach bikes, games around the hotel and swings around the beautiful landscaping is enchanting. The onsite restaurant can’t be beat - steps away from your room. We enjoyed the evening by one of the many fire pits. Ramon S was so helpful!!! (Thankyou) I called a few times, navigating what was available and what room was best for us - he was great at making sure we had the best room. We can’t wait to go back!

We had an amazing time celebrating our anniversary at the Wylder. We loved having open access to the kayaks and bikes whenever we wanted. The waterfront sauna had amazing views. We enjoyed an amazing meal at Tickler's Crab shack - lobster risotto and crab cakes. Don't skip the Painkiller - best drink on the menu!

Nice throwback kind of hotel on the island. Great people and service all over that I met from the hotel, and location sits right off the bay which is pretty cool. Very relaxing location with fire pit at night and other activities available as well. The food was pretty decent and very reasonably priced and the live acts they had on site were both really good and added to the relaxing feel of the hotel. Just make sure you are familiar with the town for when you come as it is more of a sleepy like country town, where a good amount of the restaurants and stores do close early. But the little country store up the road is really good at having just about anything you may need including adult beverages. It is an older establishment though, so no elevator and I found you may have to wait on hot water at times especially if filing the tub with water jets. A nice fridge also in the room but no microwave which would have been nice seeing how the restaurants provide such large portions around town. We had the King waterfront suite, so maybe the bungalows have microwaves.

Absolutely, positively, without a doubt not worth the money. It's a fine hotel and the staff are very nice, but the hotel room was extremely dated and our room was not worth $550 per night. We had a queen bed with only enough room for one nightstand. The light switch worked for one of the wall lamps, but that wall lamp's wiring was so loose, it wouldn't stay on. There was no closet and no full length mirror. The shower was from the 1960s and so small I had to shower with the curtain open--and I'm 5'3 and petite--because the shower head couldn't move and was aimed super high and to the left, the sink was small for even me, and the minimal shelving in it were IKEA hanging shelves. Our view, meanwhile, was of the AC units on the roof. Amenities wise, the pool was nice and the restaurant on the water is cool, but the bartender (older guy) clearly didn't want to be there, and when I asked for a recommendation between a few drinks, he said, "It depends which flavor you like." Cool. Thanks, guy. Additionally, there is no room service and the restaurant closes early, with no vending machines or even water offered after that. Again, it's a fine hotel, but don't shell out the money for just this.

Yes it is an older property but I found that to be the charm. The rooms are small but our stay was about bonding with family at the Tickler and enjoying the views. The staff was great and gave us bubbly to welcome us. Definitely a Bonnie greeting! The only note for our room was that the bathroom door didn't shut all the way. We didn't use the kayaks or pool but loved the outdoor fire pits.

We had our wedding here in Fall 2023 and it was not a good experience. I really loved the concept of the buyout of the hotel, but the experience that we ended up having was that Wylder had lots of rules - despite the property being "ours for the weekend" as they originally sold it to us - from not being able to turn up the music at our indoor after-party, to guests having to dump out the champagne they got at check-in as they walked to the outdoor crab shack because they were "separate businesses". I also found that Wylder was not well organized nor particularly open to providing a customized experience for their weddings. They changed pricing and rules multiple times for basic things like wine service (increased wine service a few months before our wedding to $20 per person, on top of the unlimited open bar package we paid for, just to have servers pour wine for guests during dinner), where the tent could go, and seating capacity for the ballroom rain backup plan - all things that you would assume that a wedding venue would have very much pre-determined. We had SO many mess ups by reception staff as our guests tried to book rooms and the rooms felt very overpriced for the accommodation they provided, which lacked basic staffing and maintenance (see photos outside of our ~$700 per night "bridal suite"). Ultimately, my biggest complaint was that the attitude from the staff was that having a wedding weekend there was an annoyance and burden, even though we paid Wylder alone over $100K for the venue fee, rooms, food & beverage (not including any of the tent rentals, band, florals, linens, etc.). We had rain during our wedding weekend and yet the only complaint that I received from any guests was that the bartenders and some of the staff were rude to them, and I felt this negativity as the bride as well. The General Manager gave us huge attitude throughout the planning process, was specifically rude to me and my husband during our wedding weekend, and she clearly lacked very basic attention to detail when responding to our questions or requests. Our experience at Wylder was that requesting anything outside of Wylder's canned wedding brochure, was met with resistance and an overpriced estimate on what it would take to deliver it, and I feel we could have put our money to much better use elsewhere. For anyone considering wylder as their event venue, I'm happy to answer additional questions and share my experience, feel free to reach out!

DO NOT STAY HERE. Way too much $$ for the rooms. Very disappointed. Our room had a funny smell and lots of flies. Half the outlets did not work. Could not blow dry our hair near the mirror, The shower water smelt. The sprinkler in the yard left a weird spot/film on my car that would not come off. Next am took it straight to a car wash . The WIFI was not working most of the time. The breakfast for the price of the room was a joke. Please just stay in St Michaels such a better place!! Wish I would had listened to the bad reviews they were right.

My beautiful GF and I spent a fabulous Friday late-summer Memorial Day weekend evening together here, and had a truly lovely time. It's not five star super luxurious, and they don't claim to be or pretend to be. The staff couldn't have been better, and we were walked to our bungalow and greeted with champagne, and a bottle of prosecco icing in the room. Almost like a grown-up summer camp, the room was comfortable, cozy and rustic. Great views. Bed was super comfortable. Nice and quiet. The water pressure in the shower wasn't the greatest, but that's a super minor complaint. We loved the grounds, all the amenities, all the comfortable and relaxed vibe. The pool looked great, although we didn't have swimsuits. We loved grabbing a drink at the Tickler's outdoor bar, sitting near the water, enjoying the firepits. We ate in town for dinner, although the menu at Tickler's looked great. Got back in time to enjoy the live music and have a few more drinks and a snack at the outdoor bar, and took our drinks back to enjoy at the fire pit by the water and in the room. Bartender was awesome, as was the staff throughout our stay. We slept in, breakfasted out in town again, and then sat and enjoyed the waterfront views before departing. Awesome time, can't wait to get back. Thank you for a fabulous, restful, beautiful getaway.

We stayed for one night and will definitely be back! Even in the colder weather, there's plenty to do on site. We enjoyed a bike ride through Tilghman Island, the sauna and cold plunge, as well as the on-site restaurant. Can't wait to return for longer and in warmer weather!

The grounds are great. They have a nice salt water pool, plenty of chairs all around the property, kayaks and bikes to use too. Some great outdoor restaurants areas and a couple of fire pits. The staff was very helpful and friendly. They seemed like they may have been a little short staffed, some members seemed to be wearing many hats but overall everything was great. Our room was one of the worst hotel rooms we have ever stayed in. We didn't have a closet or a place to hang clothes for a wedding, most everything could use an update, they did have a very nice alarm clock. For the price point they need to update or slash the price. There was a lot left to be desired.

This hotel is adorable and precious. There are so many little places to sit and the hotel is well done. The staff was LOVELY. Food and drinks were good. You can take their bike out, and use the paddle board. The salt water pool is also really nice but It is weird that there was no pathway to the pool, you have to walk through the grass. I feel bad giving 3 stars because the hotel and staff were so nice, but OMG the rooms are awful. The bed, pillows, and bathroom were honestly kind of gross. It is the worst bed I have slept at in a hotel. For a hotel this nice, the bed was offensive.

On this visit to this hotel my husband and I stayed one night after spending the day in St Michaels. We found our room to be clean, comfortable and had everything we needed. We had a room with a waterfront view so that made it even better. But we were only in the room to sleep. The outside of the property was what we enjoyed most. We lucked out with the weather. Breezy and cool in the morning. Full moon that night. Fire pits, chairs and tables in different spots to choose from, outdoor games, bicycles water sports included too! Smore kits for a small price. Outdoor bar and covered outdoor dining. Our dinner at Tickles crab shack was delicious. Simple, carefree, and good hospitality and service are offered here. Beautiful property and well maintained. Breakfast was decent. Could use some screened domes over the plates of food to keep the flies off. Super friendly and helpful staff.

Wylder Hotel restaurant on Tilghman Island has THE BEST crab bisque we've ever had. We've sampled it many places and it is even better than my Mom made growing up in Baltimore

We loved this dog friendly resort. My partner and I recenly visited for a weekend away. We loved eating with our pups and walking the grounds. We went out of the bikes provided by the resort to explore Tilghman Island. We also very much enjoyed the heated salt water pool and the sauna. Want to visit again!

Be glad you read this before you go there: Receptionist was extremely rude and unfriendly, the room smelled moldy, staff and employees in this hotel were rude as well. The pool was disappointing, the water was warm and filthy. The first day we got there there was no food to be found. The food they offered for breakfast was also underwhelming; and they charged $20 for breakfast which consisted of food that looked like it had been sitting out for days. They will not tell you where it's complimentary or not since the food is not all that I guarantee you will be disappointed if visit this place if you are celebrating any special occasion don't come here

The hotel is lovely!! We enjoyed ALL of the amenities that the hotel had to offer. The pool is perfection - highly recommend water aerobics with Mary! We also took advantage of using the SUPs and kayaks. There is a swing, hammock, Adirondack chairs, etc. as well as fire pits to enjoy! We signed up for a sunset cruise and it was a great two hour ride - the perfect way to spend our last night! Our room (a bungalow) had two queens and was clean and tidy. The only improvement could be investing in the beds a bit more. Absolutely would come back!

This place is a dump - at least the rooms are. The rooms have no closets - we had to hang our clothes for a wedding on the shower curtain rod and the knob on the chipped dresser. There are two lamps in our room and other than that no light at all. The bathroom is minuscule and the water reeks of sulphur ..... i will be putting my makeup on in the car this evening. The real kicker is the expense of this place - it's ridiculous! Maybe it's cool to pay an outrageous amount of money for a retro 50's motel experience with a complimentary small size bottle of figi water?!

The Good: The property was great. Amazing views and nice amenities. Bikes, paddleboards, cornhole, pool, etc. The rooms were small but clean. Nothing fancy, but its a quaint little inn and that is what we expected. Lots of great little spaces to sit and hang out scattered around the property. The food was good. I liked the starters better than the entrees. We ate 3 meals on property in 2 days. The complimentary morning coffee in the restaurant was delicious. Jordan, the chef, was extremely friendly and welcoming. The general store (not on property but just a few minutes bike or walk) was awesome with good breakfast sandwiches and a nice selections of food and beverages. The Bad: Most of the staff acted like they didn't want us there. Our room was supposed to be ready at 3. We weren't able to get into our room until after 4. The sparking wine at check in was there, but we were never offered any. When we asked about buying a shirt or sweatshirt, it seemed like an imposition for her to even show them to us. When we asked someone to get out two more bikes, again, it seemed like we were bothering someone. The bartender was not friendly and we ended up buying wine by the bottle because the 'by the glass' pours were so small. We asked our server at dinner about turning on a ceiling fan and her reply was "if it's not moving it's broken". There seemed to be plenty of staff around so I don't think the attitude was from being short staffed. I just think they need a little more of the Chick-Fil-A attitude - "my pleasure". I felt like most of the staff should be working in something other than the hospitality industry. The pool seemed dirty. It was a nice place to cool off but there were clumps of hair that kept floating our way.. maybe something was not working with the filters and pumps. Overall, we still had a fun getaway weekend. I would even consider coming back, but for $1000 bucks for two nights I'd like to feel a little more welcomed.

First off, the staff is straight up rude. Not welcoming or helpful. This spot is not worth the money. The room is extremely basic and motel looking. Bed was like sleeping on cardboard. No duvet cover on comforter which is gross. Stains on hand towels and no bath mat so the floor was soaked. They charged us $30 more per night than what we booked. While it's not a lot of money, they said "sorry nothing we can do about it" even though we had an email confirmation with our original price. The hospitality here is very lacking. The food is SO overpriced as well. Really not worth it.

Nice resort feel and touches. But pricey. Happy hour is only on Friday from 4-5:00. Really? Why even bother? Cmon, loosen up and extend this and you'll generate a good crowd.

This place has lots of flaws --the rooms are small, the mattresses seem old, and the food is just OK, but somehow it works anyway; we had a great time! The pool is excellent and the grounds are beautiful and relaxing, and the staff is very sweet and attentive. It's also priced very reasonably. A solid 4. Get a fabulous chef and it's a 5!

Thank you for the wonderful hospitality! The property is flawless, the rooms cozy, and my only complaint is the restaurant wasnt open during my stay and I would have appreciated that being made clear before arriving. Otherwise thank you for the perfect relaxing getaway!!

First 2 days felt low key relaxing. We were greeted with champagne, and staff to escort us to our bungalow and explain the property accommodations. All of the lounge chairs around the property were very cozy and we relaxed by the fire pits at night. Restaurant and bar staff were very friendly and helpful. Food and drinks were delicious. The pool staff were fun, checked on us frequently, and kept the drinks coming, which was appreciated. The water sport equipment was a fun inclusion however there were more kayaks than paddles available and the paddles were broken. People had to use SUP paddles for kayaks and it was awkward. It would be helpful if the equipment was more thoroughly checked and replaced as needed so guests can use as intended. On our final morning, we reserved spots for the yoga class and a time slot for sauna use. Unfortunately both were a flop. The front staff didn't seem to show any initiative when multiple groups asked for follow up about the yoga instructor's late arrival/ no show or location for class. Then when we went to our reserved time for the sauna, it was completely off. Front staff turned on and said "5 minutes" however an hour passed and the sauna was still not ready for use. Unfortunately our checkout time came, ending our stay here and we were unable to use the sauna. I expressed my concerns with the receptionist at checkout and they responded with a frowny face and "oh" before taking a phone call. No attempt for service recovery unfortunately so we left feeling disappointed. I think Wylder's boutique hotel has an amazing vision but it felt more like dream vs reality. I would recommend, following up with staff before reservations to ensure follow through and execution of the events and amenities, so other plans are not delayed throughout your day. I just want future guests to have a full experience.

We stayed her for our Anniversary for a quick get away from DC. The grounds are pretty and the chairs and fire pits are nice. The room was terrible. We paid over $450 for a room and the sheets and towels all had hair on them- not our hair. It felt disgusting. We asked several times for them to clean the sheets and towels and they continue to be dirty. It was a real disappointment .

Greg V.

Yelp
Both food and service were poor and food prices varied depending on various menus presented. Both soups and hamburgers were extremely salty, almost uneatable. First menu presented showed a price of $22 for a half dozen steamed crabs which seemed reasonable. However when the bill arrived it showed a cost of $55 which was way over priced for small crabs. When questioned, we were first told the crabs were charged at market price and then the manager showed us a menu we had never seen that showed the crabs at $55 for a half dozen and $100 for a dozen. Bot totals are well above the norm for the Chesapeake Bay Area. The waiter never offered us water when we arrived and he failed to initially submit our order for dessert. My wife ordered crème brûlée for dessert thinking it was the normal crème brûlée, but it was coffee flavored which the waiter failed to tell us. Bottom line is this is a restaurant we would never currently recommend to family or friends.

We took a trip to Maryland and Pennsylvania to visit friends, relatives and some business. I am familiar with the area and I thought a few days on Tilghman Island would be enjoyable and relaxing, Wylder Hotel did not let us down. Although the weather was not the greatest the hotel was. Everywhere is clean, freshly painted and nicely decorated. The rooms are small but comfortable (You don't go to a place like this and spend all day in your small room, get out and enjoy). John, the owner, makes a point to speak to everyone and insure they are pleased with the hotel and the service and makes every effort to make your stay an enjoyable one.

had the good fortune to go to Wylder's last Friday. delish and service friendly and polished. I had the filet and fried oyster entree. It was delicious but didn't compare to the special "game" dinner which is on Friday nights...spectacular venison and vegetable hash. hail to the Chef!

Yelp
We have gone there several times and found them closed or open for a private party only. Tonight we called for a reservation, hardly necessary. Thursday evening and we had the place to ourselves. A couple drinks and six appetizers, no entree. Drinks were good as were the appetizers and all were very expensive. I've got to say the service, drinks and food were good but too pricey to make it a regular stop.

Read this carefully because there are two ratings in this review. The Inn is a dive and would get 1 or two stars by most reviewers. However, the overall experience with the restaurant, bar, people and fishing charter would rate four stars. Do not come here expecting attractive accommodations. They are not. Rockstar and I were with a group and it was one big party so we were not focused to much on the room and we only stayed one night. The restaurant has good food, especially Rock fish. Do not purchase the buffet, it is good but the Rock fish is a better purchase. The fishing charter is great. 5 stars. We caught 32 Rock fish in under 2 hours. Just beautiful sitting out in the Choptank river at the mouth of the Chesapeake Bay. The Captain and First Mate do everything for you except reel in the fish. When you are done they clean the fish for you and pack it in ice for the trip home. Tilghman Island is a fun place to visit. Vital Stastic: $265 gets you one night in the dive, charter fishing trip, dinner and breakfast. The fishing makes it all worthwhile.

Beautiful hotel with amazing amenities set on the water on Tilghman Island. Rooms were extremely clean and comfortable; we especially enjoyed the waterfront view from our room, dining outdoors at the waterfront restaurant, the pool right by the bay, the evening fire pits and the many cozy spaces to sit outside and relax during the day. Hotel staff were so warm and friendly and ready to assist with anything. We can't wait to return.

Beautiful spot on Eastern shore. Super friendly staff and loved the unlimited use of bikes, kayaks and paddle boards. The pool is heated which was so nice and unexpected, especially at the end of Sept. it's a dog friendly resort which is fine but we had a non-stop barking dog on premises the entire weekend, which no one seemed to address. Also, carpets in all four of our rooms were badly stained... dog pee ? I hope not.

My wife and I have been coming to Tilghman Island and this particular hotel for years. The new ownership has done a nice job with cleaning the place up. They have bikes, paddleboards, Kayak and a pool. The office staff was very nice to deal with. However, it is way over priced. Restaurant is only opened on the weekends, so after 4pm you have no options for food or drinks. No room service and there is no place on the island that delivers. We went to have crabs on the crab deck and they did not have any available. Tilghman Island, end of August, there are crabs everywhere! We rented the Widow Walk suite, which was nice, clean, but small. There was only air conditioning in the bedroom and not in the living area. It was rather uncomfortable sitting in that room. Bottom line, your expectations should be adjusted before you arrive. You are going to over pay for a place that doesn't offer the amenities you would expect.

I really wanted to like this place, especially after reading so many positive reviews. My husband and I came here last week for an anniversary trip and we were definitely disappointed. This place has lot of potential but i feel like they need a lot of work. Pros: place is cute, the views are great, we had water views from our room too. Free use of bikes and kayaks although the weather didn't cooperate for us to use those. Cons: where do I begin?? When we turned on the water in the bathroom there was a very bad smell, and very strong. Someone came to freshen up the room the 2nd day and took all the towels and didn't replace any wash cloths or hand towels. By the time we noticed this the office was closed because I guess everyone leaves after 7pm?? They tell you at check in that the fire pit is lit nightly but it was never lit. I understand the 2nd night because it had rained all day but the 1st night we were looking forward to it as there was nothing else to do in the evening around there with the restaurant closed during the week. Free breakfast....you might think this is a pro but when you go to grab a bagel and swarms of flies fly off of them you immediately want to go out and pay for your food. Invest in getting something to cover the food!! I can understand some shortcomings when it's busy season but there was literally maybe 3 guests total staying there during that time. Which still baffles me why when your hotel is so empty you put guests in room directly next to each other. Why not give each guest a little extra privacy during your slow periods. With the exception of checkin and checkout we never saw a staff member anywhere in the property. I feel like when you had so little guests you really missed the mark to make an impression.

We thoroughly enjoyed our weekend on your gorgeous grounds. Kudos to the friendly staff. Food and drink were top notch. I only wish there were ice, coffee, beverages, and maybe light snacks---available 24/7. We found ourselves looking for coffee late morning and ice late night. Otherwise we and the older teens we brought had an awesome visit. Beautiful and relaxing!

We went there to stay for one night and the room was so unlike the photo and so filthy we turned around and left We lost our money but we honestly did not care. It was not fit for staying and we lost $460 for a room that makes Motel 6 look appealing. We booked a what was supposed to be a water view suite. It was not. There was a big bathtub in the bedroom. The carpet had black filth marks all over. It was so dirty that i had an allergic reaction. Could not comfortably stay for even one night.

We have gone to this spot for over 30 years It is now under new ownership. First let me say that the new finishes and upgrades really were appreciated Wife and I sat at the baron the deck and had intended to have lunch....wife ordered a Pino Grigio and the bartender/barmaid gave a splash from a near empty bottle and explained "you'll have to wait for the rest I forgot my wine key". When the new bottle arrived she added to the untouched glass a bit more which then appeared to be a total of less than 3 ounces.... I don't know if this is normal but my take is...if you want to be first class....you have present that way. The bar maid who looked like an unmade bed continued to complain that she never wanted to go back to bar tending but had no choice after having children. The message was clear....I really don't want to wait on you....and it showed. We will probably give them another chance as the place is historic to us. The couple next to us were clearly not happy either and I suspect they will never be back. Being from the shore I can appreciate the shallow depth of the talent pool, but they need first class help to survive and I hope they figure it out Oh. I forgot to mention....we were given menus when requested....and was never asked if we wanted to order....we left without having lunch. To say we were annoyed would be an understatement

Love this place and it's location! I've been coming down here since I was a small child and I was very familiar with Harrison's Chesapeake House. Family run business and home style restaurant we all loved. The transformation of this hotel is incredible. We are now retired in Talbot County and have been here for lunch and dinner and it was wonderful. We would love to frequent this restaurant more just for a few drinks and appetizers, but paying $5 for a 10oz. can of beer is just too much.

What a great stay. My wife surprised me with a Friday getaway and we really enjoyed ourselves. Staff was great and really friendly. There were lots of little touches like a sparkling wine check in and cookies in our room. Used the free bikes and kayaks. Food was good. Had dinner at Ticklers and breakfast had lots of options for a continental breakfast. The rooms are smaller and basic but the property overall is gorgeous!!

Stopped for a drink and appetizer on a Saturday afternoon after a walk. Property has been redone since last time we were here. Had an oyster po' boy and oyster stew. Both were excellent. And a glass of wine and beer. Casual and friendly service with excellent waterfront views sitting outside over looking docks. Check this place out-- we were pleased we stopped by! A place where they are taking pride in creating a great waterfront spot.

Beautiful setting, pool, and amenities. Room quality extremely poor. Dank bathroom, limited privacy, loud rooms. More motel than "bungalow." Overwhelmed service. Don't clean rooms between multi night stays. charge for water beyond 2 complimentary bottles. No phone to call front desk. Bungalows sold as having access to porch, which is really shared amongst many bungalows, but situated directly in front of 2, which makes it seem like it's their private seating area.

With a price tag of $279 a night and rooms the standard of a roadside motel, this establishment had the nerve to add on a $20 a day "resort" fee for amenities like parking, wifi, a pool that was closed for the season, two bocce courts and two complementary bottles of water. The TV is small and ceiling height, the furnishings old and the self serve breakfast as basic as they can get away with. With a price tag of over $650 for a two night stay (after tax and "resort" fees we felt taken advantage of.

We stayed for a long weekend. From the moment we hit the property till we left staff went out of their way to make us feel welcome. Since it was late an office staff was gone restaurant staff picked up the slack. Walked us to our room. We came back to the restaurant for a great burger and exemplary waiter named Michael. He told us about the weekend events encouraging us to come. Stacey behind the bar couldn't have been nicer. She introduced us to the regulars and made us feel right at home. It was a perfect destination. Now we want to come back when it's warmer

This is such a quiet and peaceful place to vacation. So many things to do- enjoyed biking, kayaking, swimming, Ticklers, and just relaxing in the rocking chairs outside our room. The views are amazing! Staff was friendly and accommodating. The rooms are quaint and very clean.

Property is beautiful and the staff is friendly. However, the room we stayed in clearly had poor ventilation and/or an issue with water coming into the property; it was damp and had an awful smell that indicated a serious problem with mildew/mold. We did request to change rooms, but the hotel was at capacity. The solution was to provide our room with some sort of dampness bag that was designed to help absorb some of the moisture and mask the odor. For $300/night, we expected a better response and customer service. Cannot in good conscience recommend this hotel until this problem is fixed.

Harrisons has done a complete renovation and all the rooms were redone. It is much nicer than they used to be. The staff is very nice and welcoming. I have been there several times this summer and would recommend it. For the price you cant beat it.
