Blue Heron Bed & Breakfast

It was the first time i visited a B&B and by far the best place I have ever stayed overnight. The innkeeper was away so Larry (I think that was his name) took care of us. Larry was AMAZING! His personality and attention to detail was fantastic. He greeted me by name. Assisted me with luggage and extended his hospitality to me and my guest to the best regard. I can’t say enough good things about him. Not to mention breakfast was so good I could slap myself. The only negative side was the coffee maker didn’t work so I didn’t get my morning coffee. I would highly recommend this bed and breakfast to anyone. I had the King Room 1 which had a steam shower to die for and a balcony with a gorgeous view on the water. My guest and I sat outside sipping a bottle of wine to the sunset. As far as food. Almost across the street there is a quaint seafood spot with one of the best crabcrakes and orange crushes I ever tasted. There are other spots that are within walking distance. To say the least. I have to give a huge thanks to Larry for making me and my guest stay the best experience I have ever had.

So we never actually stayed here. We made a reservation, sat there thinking ‘what the hell?’ and moved hotels.
We were in solomons Island for a wedding and when my Aunt was looking for a place to stay she called and explicity detailed that we needed accomidation for four adults-​four grown older adults. They endorsed their 1 suite and when we again stated so this suite will sleep FOUR GROWN OLDER ADULTS they said yes. Well first I was called in to haul everyone’s stuff to the top floor even though I was not staying there since it was the dead of summer and there only very narrow stairs not wide enough to hold your suite case to your side reaching about what would be a third floor level. I fiddled with the key and since I grew up in Maryland I knew what to expect: that pleasent blast of airconditioning hitting my face… to which there was none. Okay so its 100 degrees with 80% humidity maybe they don’t usually have the suite open regularly so it is not on. I went to the wall to turn it on, then I realized in this essentially an attic they had one vent that was over the one bed. Luckly my Aunt from Idaho brought a table fan from the store and after making it up the stairs sat infront of the fan waiting for it to get cool. We all did, the rellief never came. In this silence only unique to five adults sitting silently in an attic in the middle of a Maryland summer waiting for relief of sweet-​sweet ariconditiong that would never come, we realized something else. There was only one bed and the second «bed» was a pull out from the couch nay the love seat. It wasn’t even a full size couch it was a love seat. Then we realized that other things too like the ridiculously small bathroom that would not have allowed the 6’4″ groom to take a shower.
In the end between the unairconditioned room that only would have gotten semi cold if we blasted ice over the couple sleeping in the bed; the love seat pull out that sleeps two like my couch in college would sleep two when I would tell my drunk buddies that they could stay at my place because I did not want to drive extra to bring them home; the dangerously narrow and unusable stairs for my Aunt with MS; and the disporpotionate bathroom accomidations. It was a no go. I am only giving them a second star because it we did not actually stay here.
P. S. Please note I am not taking away stars because it was hot. I grew up in Maryland and I get it, but since I grew up in Maryland I know this is not an uncommon occurance and even the motel 6 has proper air.

We randomly stopped here on our way to what was supposed to be winter camping. Walking past this place, we initially didn’t think much of the outside, then realized that the B&B sat right next to the water and had it’s own dock. The bedroom views are amazing and the shower was one of the best I’ve ever experienced. It included a steam shoot that made it into a sauna, and a full body shower head. The service was also great, because of a cancelation, we were upgraded to a suite for no additional cost, and breakfast was scrumptious. We will definitely be back in the off season. I can imagine this place is packed in the summer. There are only 4 rooms.
