About Old Brick Inn
Old Brick Inn sits at 401 S Talbot Street, right in the middle of historic St. Michaels on Maryland's Eastern Shore. Rather than one house, the inn spreads across a small group of buildings: the Wrightson Jones House and the Kemp House, both with roots in the town's early 1800s, plus a Carriage House. Each guest room is decorated in its own style, and the grounds mix patios, porches and garden beds where you can sit out between walks around town.
The inn is set up as a quiet getaway. Guests must be 16 or older, and the property is pet-free. Check-in starts at 3 PM and check-out is by 11 AM. Breakfast is made in-house and served each morning as part of the stay, Wi-Fi covers the property, and parking is included close to the rooms, which means you can leave the car and walk to Talbot Street's shops and restaurants.
Because the buildings are historic, there are no elevators and some areas have stairs; the innkeepers ask guests with accessibility needs to contact them before booking. Direct bookings need at least 30 days' notice to cancel. The Wrightson Jones House and Kemp House can also be booked for private events, so ask about them if you are planning a small gathering.
For a lavender outing, Smokey Cat Lavender Farm in Federalsburg is roughly 45 to 50 minutes away by car, heading east through Easton and then south. A stay here works well as a base for a two-day Eastern Shore trip: a morning at the farm, then back to St. Michaels for an evening on foot.
