"We had a lovely weekend at the Log Canoe Inn! The location was great. We loved being on the water and it was just a short walk to the main street, shops, restaurants, and the nature trail. Cottage was perfect. Coffee, drinks, and snacks in the main house were a nice treat."
"The location of Log Canoe Inn could not be better. On the water with a beautiful view and a short walk to Talbot Street. This was a return trip for us and the first time we stayed in the main house. It was equally as nice with comfortable beds and lots of snacks and drinks in the downstairs living space. The bathroom was newly renovated and there was a fridge in the room as a bonus. We would stay again!"
"If you are planning to visit Saint Michaels (and you should), see if you can get a room at the Log Canoe Inn. Of course, Saint Michaels and the Miles River are famous for the Log Canoe races, which date back to the 1800s.

Each room is named after one of..."
"We stayed in the Island Bird suite and the room was so cute, so clean and had everything we needed. The water view is amazing. We will be back in warmer weather to sit in the chairs outside and enjoy the views. Very easy check in and out and 2 short blocks to everything on the main street."
"We absolutely loved our second time staying at the Log Canoe Inn. We stayed in the Island Bird Suite and it was so cozy and quiet. Loved the option to go into the main house for snacks and drinks! The suite was well appointed, love the shampoo and conditioner and body wash already there for us. We knew there was a Keurig so we brought our fave k-cups. It was warmer outside than expected so we were able to sit..."
"I toured the property in late May 2026 and met the owners for a story I'm writing for Attraction Magazine on the best places to watch the Chesapeake Bay sailing log canoe races on the Miles River. I am impressed by the young couple who run this inn and the adjacent yacht yard, and their upkeep of the docks and more. This place has a cool vibe, and a spot in St. Michaels that makes you feel tucked away yet..."
"Great location! We had the Oliver's Gift Room with a nice view of the water. The bed was comfortable, the shower was hot! We did have an issue with our bathroom lights blowing a fuse, but the owners fixed it quickly. A lovely place to stay if you are in St. Michael's."
