Romantic Getaway in Sophisticated Yet Relaxed Atmosphere

Great Oak Manor
Here is what guests had to say…
Having just returned from Great Oak Manor we have nothing less than glowing comments. The innkeepers made us feel totally at home and ensured we were both settled in and fully informed on activities at the inn and in the surrounding area that would be taking place during our visit. The grounds and buildings are immaculately maintained. Especially pleasing was the abundance of soft towels in the bath along with a full range of toiletries. We were able to participate in the last of the Spring 2010 series of catered, gourmet dinners. The dinner was preceded by a musical presentation by an exceptional pianist who entertained the guests while we enjoyed hors d’oeuvres and wine. The dinner consisted of a five course meal with wines specifically paired with each course by the innkeepers. Following dinner we adjourned to the library for coffee or tea and lively conversation with our hosts and fellow guests. The experience was reminiscent of a more leisurely era where an evening consisted of the same elements: superb food, excellent live music, and great conversation. We would recommend Great Oak Manor for all but families with young children since the inn is decorated and the activities are geared to adults. It is especially suited for a romantic getaway for two or for special family events such as a reunion or wedding anniversary celebration. A stay of several days would enable visitors to fully appreciate and explore the Eastern Shore of Maryland and its myriad of small towns, great restaurants, and friendly residents. Great Oak Manor is well worth a visit.
