Circa 1743. This pristine 18th-century manor house sits as a jewel on 12 acres overlooking Stoneybrook Pond. The guest rooms and the inn's several parlors are preserved and appointed in an authentic Colonial mood, heightened by handsome polished wide-board floors. Eastern Neck Island National Wildlife Refuge, Rock Hall, Chesapeake Farms, St. Michaels, Annapolis and nearby Chestertown are all delightful to explore. The Inn at Mitchell House is a popular setting for romantic weddings and small corporate meetings.

Historic Interest

During the War of 1812, the Kent County Militia, under the command of Lt. Col. Philip A. Reed, marched on Belle Air (Fairlee) to British forces at Caulk's Field. On August 31, 1814, the British were repulsed. Their commander, Sir Peter Parker, was mortally wounded and brought to the Mitchell House for possible aid. Upon his ultimate demise there, his body was transported back to his native England preserved in a barrel of rum. This is designated in the legend recorded in the Maryland Registry of old homesites.

This was my fourth year at The Inn at Mitchell House. As always, the greeting was warm, the food was wonderful, and my stay was relaxing. I visit Jim and Tracy with a group of women who spend a weekend knitting, and we always have a wonderful time. I would recommend spending a weekend at the Inn at Mitchell House to anyone who wants to relax and unwind.

From the warm greeting by name when we entered the main center hall to the fresh peaches from the property on the warm french toast, it is the personal touches that made our stay so enjoyable. It is clear that Innkeepers Jim and Tracey Stone love sharing their historic property with all who visit. We felt more like friends visiting than customers. We look forward to seeing them again.
