Black Walnut Point Inn
Bed and Breakfast

Watch the sun rise over the Choptank River and set over the Chesapeake Bay at the Black Walnut Point Inn on Tilghman Island. Situated within fifty-seven tranquil acres of a wildlife preserve on the southernmost tip of the island. This Inn is like a sanctuary for humans where you can enjoy the comfortable accommodations and serene surroundings of this Civil War period mansion.

Four enchanting guest rooms in this mansion offer private baths, waterfront views and tasteful furnishings. Screened porches, sitting areas, king- and queen-size beds, and large windows are just some of the amenities found in the various rooms. In the morning, pull up a rocking chair out on the porch and plan your day's activities. Take a nap on the hammocks. View a fantastic sunset from the Sun Room that spans the entire western side of the house. Guests are welcome to read in front of the fireplace, watch TV or play a game in the living room.

For a little extra privacy and seclusion, stay in one of the new cozy waterfront cottages. Each cottage has a large screened porch facing the river, living room with fireplace, full kitchen, private bath, and bedroom with a king-size bed. Every room offers incredible water views.

An ideal setting for conferences and seminars, The Black Walnut Inn can accommodate up to fourteen people. Meetings may be held in the Sun Room overlooking the bay or on the large waterfront screened porch. The Inn's isolation is consistent with productivity and is free of artificial distractions.

Start the day off right with an expanded Continental breakfast served in the formal dining room.

The Inn provides plenty of activity: swim in the pool, go fishing or boating, or just walk or bike around the island taking photos of the natural beauty. Explore the wildlife sanctuary. St. Michaels which is only twenty minutes away, offers golf, fine restaurants with numerous selections native to the Chesapeake Bay, quaint shops plus the nationally famous Maritime Museum. Fifteen more minutes away is the historic town of Easton, the colonial capital of the eastern shore. In October and November the island celebrates itself with the Waterfowl Festival and the Tilghman Island Day.

For the perfect getaway for the week-end or a much deserved vacation, experience the romantic, private setting of the Black Walnut Point Inn with its wildlife, sunrises, sunsets and silence. Your innkeepers invite you to share this sanctuary with them.
