Charming and idylic
We arrived late and Cindy, the Innkeeper, was still there visiting with two other guests. We all sat in the living room, enjoyed a glass of wine, and chatted like old friends. There is a free ferry across from the Inn, along the river that feeds into the Chesapeake Bay. We talked to the ferry operator about the history of the ferry. He even offered to take us across the river simply to take photos. Cindy told us that if we take this ferry, we could cut about 40 minutes off our drive when we head out the next day. In the morning we were greeted with a fabulous home-made breakfast and more warm conversation. After checkout, we thanked Cindy, said good-bye to all our new friends and got in line for the ferry (which only takes 3 cars per trip). The same operator was there in the morning and greeted us with a huge hello. The setting of Whitehaven Hotel is quite beautiful and quaint. Our only complaint is that we were only staying one night. Would definitely stay here again.
