Great weekend in St Michaels

Property is an historic small house billed as "you can walk to anywhere in St Michaels", and you can--easily. It's located in a very quiet area a couple of blocks from the harbor. It's near the corner of Locust and Carpenter (two very quiet side streets) that is labeled "Hell's Crossing" on the locally provided street map. There is an interesting story about that dating from the 1800's. The house is very nicely maintained and furnished in colonial period style. It's ideal for a couple, or a couple with two children. It might be too small for multiple families. The only suggested improvement I would make is to provide a non-skid bath mat for the tub. It has a non-slip surface, but it's still a little slippery--especially for us older folks

About the host

Hosted by Thomas Byrne

I purchased and restored the nearby Thomas Harrison House (VRBO 198445) in 1991. As my interest in the area grew, I purchased and restored the Thomas Blades House as well as the Washington Melson House (VRBO 359766) and John Bruff House (844888).

Why they chose this property

The proximity (walking distance) to the beautiful St Michaels harbor and to almost everything in Town, quiet street location, the architecture and the historic character of the house and area.

What makes this property unique

Walking distance to everything...harbor, shops, restaurants, museums, library, tennis courts, community pool etc. Large screened porch off of the family room. Very comfortable and relaxing home.
