The Back Creek, one of southern Maryland’s scenic waterways along which the Inn is nestled, merges with the Patuxent River and the Chesapeake Bay. Sailing and motorized boating guests may dock at one of the two slips available at the Inn’s dock.
Once a simple Queen Anne style waterman’s home, built in 1880, this home operated as the Back Creek Inn Bed & Breakfast from 1987 to 2024. To keep up with our guests’ and Innkeeper’s needs, 2024 brings updates to our accommodations that removes some guest rooms and adds a private two-bedroom, one-bathroom Little House with full kitchen, washer/dryer and private screened-in porch. Each room comes with cable TV and WiFi throughout the property. Flowers, fruit, herbs, and vegetables can be found in the Inn’s gardens along with ample seating to take in the surroundings. Pairs of Adirondack chairs grace the lawn, with views of Back Creek and the Patuxent River. These surrounding views of the gardens and waterways and its inhabitants become captured in paintings by the Inn’s owner and artist, Carol Pennock. A two-block stroll to the Solomons Island’s Riverwalk offer you a breathtaking sunset along with fine dining, casual meals, delicious desserts, and lively nightlife too!
