Beautiful location and Deco!
This was a fun, beautiful, remodeled apartment on the St. Mary’s River in Historic downtown. Comfortable beds and furniture, new appliances, washer and dryer and very clean. So nice to just walk to restaurants, submarine museum, shops and the waterfront park and Ferry dock!

Fall visit to St Mary’s
My wife and I were very impressed with our stay at the Southern Bell. The place was much nicer than we expected and a great location. Cleanliness was exceptional and with all the amenities we never went to the store for coffee, cream, toiletries, etc…. We visited 3 of the 4 major islands in the area during our long weekend and would highly recommend the Southern Bell for exploring the local area.

Why they chose this property

The Telephone Office Building, built in 1947. It was an important fixture on the downtown waterfront until 1951. We have paid tribute to that legacy with a couple of vintage phones and other memorabilia from our collection on site in the apartment. Our dream is to open a small telephone exhibit of the phones used in this area between the late 1850's up to the 1950's.

What makes this property unique

Location, location, location! Any closer to the water and you would be wet! Great views of the water and boats. You can watch the sunrise and sunset from the porch or the inside of the apartment.
