What a treat it was to find the historic Woodlawn B&B. My daughter is a student at nearby St. Mary's college and I was looking for a place with character and a personal touch. To go to Woodlawn is like stepping back in time. The manor house was built in the late 18th century. I stayed in the lovely and... More

We were looking for a place to go for a night that was near some of the lighthouses in southern MD. The owner took great care of us and welcomed us in true southern MD hospitality. The cabin we had originally reserved was in need of repair and we were placed in an equally nice suite. The estate is beautiful... More

I'm fairly well-traveled, and this place made a lasting impression. We were immediately greeted by the owner and welcomed with true country hospitality (and a glass of wine on the house). An absolutely stunning view of the sunset over the bay, quaint historic house, and wonderful hospitality, including a home-made breakfast by the owner. All in all an unforgettable stay.

We were looking for a nice place that is close to Point Lookout State Park as we are members of the 20th Maine Co. E and our annual Christmas Party is held at Fort Lincoln in the park. While the 1860's Christmas decorations,dinner and period music and dancing are truly special, sleeping on wooden bunks with no indoor plumbing is... More

My husband and I were married at Woodlawn in May, 2010. We rented the entire bed and breakfast for the weekend so some of our friends and family could stay with us and share in our special day. Friends had the opportunity to take advantage of the kayaks and amenities as they relaxed before the wedding. We held the rehearsal... More

My husband and I enjoyed two nights at Woodlawn recently, with our little Westie. We all had a wonderful time. The views from everywhere on the (large) estate couldn't have been more scenic. Nice, hospitable host and staff. Delicious, nicely prepared breakfasts both days! We stayed in the Poppy cottage but had a look around the main building as well... More

We had a wonderful experience with Jim and his whole staff for our wedding on Sept. 4th 2011. The accommodations are quaint and lovely. Jim's Breakfasts were delicious and made with local eggs and meat! The house is a true treasure of the western shore - The magnolia room is short on closet space, the Calvert Room has the best...

Love Woodlawn. Jim Grube is a wonderful host. I've stayed here more than once when visiting the campus of St. Mary's College of Maryland. While off the beaten track, it is so in a totally elegant and bygone-era way, letting us avoid the noisy and somehow depressing strip of hotels in nearby Lexington Park, which are perfectly adequate but not...

My wife Ali and I were in the area visiting family and this is the second time that we have stayed with Jim at Woodlawn. We were in the Calvert Suite this time and really looking forward to this visit. In December, 2008, my family was here and Jim and told us that he was getting ready to stand up... More
