Description of Surrounding Area
The maritime district offers a rich history as well as the expected and renowned boating opportunities. One of the most unique and diverse neighborhoods to be found in America!
Built in the 1860's, this home has a colorful history as a farmhouse, schoolhouse, and now as a guest house. Recent renovations have restored many charming features of the past as well as adding the comfortable amenities of today's lifestyle. Five guest rooms celebrate Mayland's rich shoreline features and the maritime industry that has responded to the alluring challenge of the Chesapeake Bay. These fresh air themes create a casual, relaxing environment for our guests to launch their recreational respites or to tackle their business endeavors.
Description of Rooms/Suites
The house has central air conditioning and a fireplace in the guest parlor. Three guest rooms are located on the second floor; each has either a king or queen bed, and an en suite private bath. The other two guest rooms on the third floor have two full beds, and a full and single bed respectively. These two rooms share a bath. However, congestion is alleviated, as each room has a private sink and mirror, for shaving and freshening up, and never more than two occupants. These two rooms are ideal for family groups or friends traveling together.
All five rooms have cable television, alarm clocks, fans, and a private phone/data lines with answering machines. Business amenities include fax, copy, office supplies, and nearby overnight delivery drops as well as breakfast service as early as 6:30AM. A full breakfast is served daily in the dining room or seasonally on the porch. Fresh fruit and traditional favorites (i.e. waffles, pancakes, scrambled eggs, and French toast) grace the daily menu.
