A Day-to-Day Itinerary For Your Weekend Getaways from Baltimore

Day 1: Friday

So you’ve just decided to take a last minute weekend getaway from Baltimore. Now that you’ve made Rock Hall your getaway destination, you need to pack for the many outdoorsy things to do in our town. Then, set your GPS to the Inn at Huntingfield Creek. You’ll find that it’s not even 4 hours away from Baltimore, but only 1-hour and 45-minutes!

As soon as you get in the car, the adventure begins. Soon you’ll cross the Chesapeake Bay Bridge for a ride over the gorgeous water, and later, marvel as the scenery turns from cityscape to thriving greenery when you pass the Eastern Neck National Wildlife Refuge.

As you approach Rock Hall, stop by Waterman’s Crab House and Dock Bar for fresh local seafood with a view of the Chesapeake Bay. Finally, after your stomach is satisfied, make your way to our Inn. You’ll instantly feel at home as you traverse our pear tree lined driveway, discover your accommodation, and finish the evening in a plush, king size bed.

Day 2: Saturday

Awake to an entire complimentary country breakfast awaiting you in the Main House. Once you’re energized for the day, we suggest that you explore the many bike trails using our complimentary biking map to get an up-close view of our vibrant town.

Would you rather have a lazy day? Stay with us at the Inn and enjoy an afternoon of birding. We’ve seen 70 different species just on our property alone! Later, indulge in our spa package which includes a spa bath basket and massage to get you into a peaceful state of mind.

Maybe you’re looking for weekend family getaways in Maryland. If so, enjoy our spacious cottages complete with a full kitchen, spacious living area, and even room for a pet. Treat your family to a sail across the bay with Blue Crab Charters, let the kids play on the onsite rope swing as you relax by the saltwater pool, and enjoy a gorgeous Chesapeake Bay sunset from our dock that sits on the creek.

Day 3: Sunday

On your final day in Rock Hall, make a stop by Java Rock Cafe for a delicious breakfast and a quick boost of caffeine. With such a short drive back to Baltimore, you’ll have time to stop by Riverarts to pick up a piece of artwork that commemorates your fantastic weekend getaway in the Mid-Atlantic.
