The following information is available for Dr. Dodson House Bed & Breakfast:

Bed & Breakfast in Historic St. Michaels, on Maryland's Eastern Shore

Dr. Dodson House offers five-star hospitality and an in-town location just one house from the harbor and steps from popular Talbot Street with its interesting shops and fabulous restaurants. The Chesapeake Bay Maritime Museum and St. Michaels Museum at St. Mary's Square are nearby, in addition to numerous in-town parks. Muskrat Park, a block away, has been recently renovated with gorgeous plantings and brick walkways, and hosts the Saturday morning local farmer's market in season. The inn was built in 1799 by Samuel Harrison, and began life as a tavern and the town's first post office. History buffs will appreciate its original features, including doors, woodwork, fireplaces, and wavy glass. In 1872 Sarah Louisa Bruff doubled the size of the original brick structure and added a spectacular two story porch. The house remains one of the best preserved examples of federal period architecture in the historic district and is featured on both the St. Mary's Square Museum walking tour map and the Talbot County Historical Society's Frederick Douglass site map. In his autobiography, Mr. Douglass describes his visit to the house in 1877, where he and his former master reconciled their differences. Come enjoy the character of this beautiful antique home and enjoy life's little luxuries - you might just want to settle in to a chaise lounge on the second floor porch with your favorite book! When you stay at Dr. Dodson House Bed & Breakfast, you will notice the difference in the attention to detail. 2012 marks the 19th year that our guests have been warmly welcomed and pampered during their stay.

One thing our guests rave about is breakfast! Each morning you will be given a choice of a sweet or savory entree such as Eggs Benedict, Caramelized Onion and Fresh Tomato Tarts, Banana Pecan Waffles, Grand Marnier Blueberry Cheese Blintzes, Caramel French Toast, or Mushroom and Cheese Omelets. You may also enjoy fresh fruit topped with a refreshing scoop of berry sherbet, selected juices, coffee, tea, and sometimes in addition, muffins or sausage. Breakfast is elegantly served in the dining room at your choice of time from 8 - 9:30 a.m. - by a cozy fire in winter. The house is cooled by central air conditioning in the warmer months. Early risers, late sleepers or light eaters may arrange in advance for a continental breakfast "to go". There is plenty to see and do after breakfast, such as a boat ride, a walk through the historic district, shopping, or perhaps reserve a bicycle to ride to the Oxford Ferry or just around St. Michaels...a quintessentially charming waterside village. Our Guest Rooms and Amenities There are two lovely guest rooms on the second floor, the Harrison Room and the Dodson Room, which have very comfortable queen size beds, real wood-burning fireplaces, and private bathrooms with marble showers and antique marble sinks. The Dodson Room can accommodate a third person on a daybed. A smaller room on the third floor, the Harborview Room, offers the option of twin beds or a king with private bathroom. The angled ceiling, dormer windows and exposed brick wall provide a cozy atmosphere - there's even a peek over the rooftops at the Miles River and the Hooper Strait Lighthouse at the Chesapeake Bay Maritime Museum. We haven't forgotten the creature comforts like down pillows, all the essential toiletries, bathrobes, hair dryers, clock radios with iPod docks, digital flat screen TVs, heated mattress pads, free WiFi and umbrellas. Please consider visiting soon! It's a place that we know you will want to return to time and time again. Janet Schilling (formerly Janet Buck) Owner
