Directions

Maryland’s Eastern Shore is just across the Chesapeake Bay from Baltimore. Proceed through the cornfields and past the river inlets to one of the prettiest small towns in America. You can get here by boat, but it may be faster to drive.

Until urban sprawl reaches our shores and the town population grows above 5,000—and we fervently hope that doesn’t happen—there is no bus or taxi service to Chestertown.
