Such an upsetting and disappointing stay. In short, our room was not at all worth what we paid and I have no idea how this is a 5 star hotel. In long, we rented the Robin’s nest for 4 nights and only stayed there for about 18 hours. It felt like when someone builds an in-law-suite in their basement for as cheap as possible, using only used building materials and furniture that they got for free. Everything there seemed like stuff others had left out for the trash. It desperately needs upgrading or they should stop charging $400+ a night for such a low quality room. I don’t know about you, but I expected better from a “5 star” hotel charging $400+ on a Monday. The online pictures make it look nicer than it is, so I added real pictures so that hopefully nobody else has to go through what we did. 

When we told staff that we were unhappy with the quality of the room, the only option they gave was a room DOWN-grade, they would not offer any type of refund so we still had to pay for the 3 other nights that we did not stay there for. A no-refund policy is understandable when a customer is cancelling at no fault of the hotel, but it is not ok when a customer comes to a hotel and leaves because the room is so horrible. Mind you that we booked last minute, literally 3 hours prior to our arrival so we only held their reservation for less than a day, it was unreasonable to not refund anything. Issues we had with the room (besides the contractor-grade everything): insanely humid, the doors had no deadbolts, shower floods the bathroom floor, the air ventilation was filthy, ceiling tape falling down, the bathroom fan smelled like it was going to catch fire if you turned it on for just a few seconds, the bed was as hard as the floor, dead and alive bugs in room, no curtains on the bedroom windows (just blinds), etc. I feel like I was robbed. It was a very uncomfortable stay.

Overpriced & substandard quality.

We stayed in Poppy’s Retreat.  Stairs are very steep to get to the room, but the climb was worth it.  The room is pleasant and comfortable.  The en-suite bath with a shower, complete with jets, is very spa like.   We even took the walking path around the corn fields.  Breakfast did not start until 8:30, but fortunately, they were nice and started our breakfast early so we could leave to make a 9AM appointment that we had.  Thank you - made our appointment in plenty of time.

Pleasant stay at the Inn

We booked the cheapest room and loved it. It's big and clean and sunny with windows on both sides. There is a steep staircase some might struggle with. The shower has jets for two people. We liked the old fashioned key. The food was delicious and plentiful. They really have their act together. Very restful place.

Poppy's Retreat was great

Excellent at every level.   We stayed in June 2023 for a short couples getaway and enjoyed every single minute.    
Location- The inn is located in the northeast corner of the eastern shore and although there isn't a lot in the immediate vicinity (chestertown is a pretty small town) it is a reasonable base to explore the rest of the area.  
Building/Room Review- The inn consists of a main building with several rooms, breakfast room, patios, porches and fire pit area.   I spent a lot of time rocking on the porch under the fans in the AM, during afternoon tea and in the evenings.   There are also several cottages sprinkled around the property (but the furthest is a 2 minute walk).   We liked the idea of a larger room but wanted the convenience of being in the main building so we chose the Fairy Hill Suite which offered two level room (main room with couch, tables, tv) and an upstairs bedroom with attached bathroom.    We think this was the best choice offering space of the cottages and the convenience of an indoor walk to the breakfast room, library and porch.  It happed to rain each evening while we were there so this was very convenient.    We found the room to be a bit rustic (at first the downstairs area seemed very rustic with colonial style furniture and a very uncomfortable couch but found the upstairs to be very comfortable).    If I were to choose another room I would probably go for one of the newer cottages (Marley/Mulberry?) in the back.  They didn't seem much more expensive but looked modern, spacious and amenity-filled.   
Property Review - we spent a lot of time walking around the property as it covered in mowed (but otherwise undeveloped) walking paths.   We saw deer walking around each and every day.     
Breakfast - The breakfast is ample with a baked good, coffee and juice to start as well as a choice of two entrees (usually one of pancakes, french toast waffles and a hot egg entree each day). Each served with potatoes and bacon/sausage.   You can also get eggs any which way you like if the main choices don't appeal to you.   
Service - we were warmly greeted by the owners upon arrival but didn't really see them the rest of the time.  However, there were ample staff around the property and each one was friendly and helpful.  
Overall - I am so glad we stayed here and would highly recommend it for anyone else interested in a relaxing getaway on the eastern shore.      

An amazing retreat!  

We stayed here in June for our wedding anniversary .  We chose the Sunrise cottage.  Very nice place , lovely grounds and peaceful .  Although there are a lot of lovely touches just a few more would make it perfect .  When you have such lovely things why choose to use plastic cups in the bathrooms and plastic cutlery in the sun lounge for afternoon tea.  
We did ask for fresh milk and it was available but why not place it in the fridge .  
We asked for extra towels and bath grains and had to ask several times.  It was a Sunday and the girl doing afternoon tea did make it pretty clear she was cooking dinner for two. Nice experience but could be fantastic with a few little tweaks

Nice but could be fantastic

This place has a lot to offer, especially if staying in a cottage.  We chose Marley's & were not disappointed- reserved parking space in covered barn leads to private entrance with covered porch swing & seating area perfect for breakfast.  Round corner past hammock to outdoor shower w/ footpath to screened-in porch housing Japanese soaking tub.

We enjoyed strolls on property with chickens, a friendly cat, & a mini forest of bamboo.  Main house has wrap around porch perfect for afternoon tea & socializing, but it was difficult to leave our little oasis with King bed, above mounted TV, peek-thru to bathroom with steam shower & jetted tub.  Wood burning fireplace, wet bar, & seating area.  Windows and ceiling fans abound for comfort.

Breakfast delivered to door for which we were demanding gremlins always asking for more.  Non-intrusive staff drops & retrieves.  In-room massage was among best I've had.  Not a ton to do in area, but nice walkable downtown with specialty shops.  We visited during Sultana Downrigging Festival & were plenty entertained.  30 min drive to Chesapeake City will get you waterfront dining & New Orleans inspired steak house.

Hard to beat Marley’s Cottage

This is in a very old building that has new owners (2020). The room & sitting area were comfortable. There are 2 public parlors & breakfast area. There was no one to help with luggage when we arrived in late afternoon & very steep stairs to the rooms & no ramp at the entrance. Check with the inn keepet if mobility is a concern. 

Brrakfast was adequate, but my scratch waffles are better. There are fredh cookies, teas, etc for the evening.

Would return if in the area again

Quiet in the country

Spend the money and get a cottage. Privacy is amazing here for a bed and breakfast.  The Mulberry cottage was very nice. We enjoyed a made to order breakfast every morning on the patio and really enjoyed having our own space. Easily one of the best bed and breakfasts we have ever stayed at.
    The space is well appointed. 1000 square feet, might be hard for the elderly as there is a lot of level changes in the room.  The shower was great and they actually had an amazing smelling body wash as well.  The TV is in an odd position to only watch in bed, but you shouldn't really be a zombie here anyways.  My only complaint about the property was a strange odor in the closed toilet area, luckily it was pretty much contained with the door closed.  
    Treats in the afternoon and cookies as well are a nice touch usual of a B&B.  Take a trip to the Crow winery as well as these two businesses work together and they really make some pretty good wines that are only available in Maryland. 
    The room could use a mattress upgrade soon but was okay.

Wonderful Inn

We stayed in the Fairy Hill suite for two nights. The accommodations were very comfortable, spacious and clean. The bathroom was stocked with complimentary toiletries. The property was well maintained and daily breakfast was outstanding!  The fresh baked cookies were a nice treat daily.

Great Bed and Breakfast

Exceptional B&B. New owners investing heavily in the property, which was already a top B&B. New owners, David and Hilari (sp) have an amazing vision for the entire property and we think it’s going to be measurably better at each future stay!

The food is outstanding, the owners and staff are warm, gracious, hardworking and welcoming. We love this inn and look forward to many more visits to Brampton Inn for special occasions. It’s a place where you can come and just relax, feeling perfectly at home (but, with no chores!)

Latest plus is the availability on-site of EV chargers including a Tesla level 2 charger.

One investment we’re hoping to see in the future is bathroom upgrades to the suites in the main house. They really need it.  They are very clean, well stocked and fully functional but way past their “use by” date. They need updating to keep their Select Registry rating.
