Introduction
The self-proclaimed “heart and soul” of Chesapeake Bay, St. Michaels, is a quaint, resort town that certainly lives up to its motto. Just across the Chesapeake Bay Bridge from Washington DC, Baltimore and Annapolis, a visit to St Michaels is like stepping into the past with the amenities of the present. Originally, a tobacco farming and shipbuilding community, St. Michaels’ history dates back to the late 1700s and today still reflects its heritage with its Colonial and Victorian homes and landmarks, horse-drawn carriages and its commitment to preserving Chesapeake’s maritime history. This peaceful village is a haven for boaters, sailors, fisherman and bed and breakfast lovers or anyone looking to escape the hustle and bustle of city life. Escape to a peaceful St. Michaels bed and breakfast and experience the comfort of St. Michaels’ hospitality. Resort to a Victorian manor located on the shoreline or a brick inn located near the historic district. With many bed and breakfasts located just a walk away from the ocean, the sights and sounds of St. Michaels’ shoreline will soothe your heart. With its extensive array of bed and breakfasts, shops, galleries, wineries, and restaurants, there is plenty to do and tasting the fresh local crabs and oysters is worth the trip alone.
