"This is a must see for yourself!! The owners have thought of every detail from the over the top welcome amenities to extras like offering beach chairs and towels to go explore the local beach! Breakfast was absolutely delicious! She even prepared a to go breakfast when she found out we had to leave out early one morning! We enjoyed home grown fruits and veggies from her garden daily! If you want to step back in time, but still have the comforts of modern day you have to got to visit this place!...

Top California Hotel Reviews

Hilton Garden Inn Solomons

8/10 Good

"Our room was nice and the employees were very nice. Also, the location was close to a small shopping center and there were plenty of fast food places and other restaurants. We had a nice stay"

La Quinta Inn & Suites by Wyndham Lexington Park - Patuxent

10/10 Excellent

"My family and I had a great stay at this LaQuinta location for a funeral . David was such a great help checking us in. There were lots of shopping and restaurants near by to choose from if needed. The rooms were roomy and clean."

Hampton Inn by Hilton Lexington Park

8/10 Good

"Arrived for check in & grabbed the keys without checking the room. Upon return (much later that evening/early morning hours) I entered the room to find it wasn’t what I booked. Didn’t have sofa bed as advertised, so I head to the front desk. The lady ignored me ringing the bell, ignored me calling the front desk phone & remained in the room with the camera footage. Eventually she emerged & gave me nothing but a hard time. I informed her there was no where for my children to sleep & showed her my booking. She continually said she couldn’t override to move my room. About 15 minutes later she magically gave me new keys to another room. Place is clean, well kept & local to food/gas, etc. This may have been a one off situation but it was not handled well."

Quality Inn Solomons - Beacon Marina

8/10 Good

"Everything was good, standard hotel/motel stuff: little coffee pot, mini-fridge, microwave, tv,a/c - everything worked as expected, furniture, carpeting, lights, bathroom all looked newish and everything was very clean. Desk folk were pleasant, didn’t have much interaction. The big plus is the location, right by a huge marina (if you like looking at boats) and the Calvert Marine Museum- combines natural history and the commercial history of the area, has the Drum Point lighthouse (you can tour) and a boat tour of Patuxent Harbor, plus fossils, river otters, fish. Calvert Cliffs / Flag Pond parks are a 10 minute drive if you want to dig for fossils yourself. So: comfortable place, very reasonably priced, close to all sorts of stuff; definitely worth it."

Pet Friendly Delightful Waterfront Cottage on Hoopers Island, MD.

10/10 Excellent

"This was a return trip for me, as always the property was clean, comfortable, quiet, The communication with the host was excellent, and we’ll definitely be back in the future to enjoy the gem that Hoopers Island is. Thank you for sharing your property again."
