Outdated. Outdated. Outdated. Getting the picture? A serious reinvestment by the ownership is needed. Im not saying there needs to be a travertine 22 head shower with a flatscreen in every room but clean, undamaged period correct furnishings would be better than current. Staff upgrades are overdue as well. Reading previous reviews we concur that brash, overbearing ‘cranky great-aunt from out of town’ types that feel an obligation to delve well past the normal reminders about policy and courtesy didnt help the check in or out. Fresh faces and pleasant greetings would be better recieved. Beautiful location in truly one of the most picturesque places ive ever been and worth serious consideration if in the area on a budget.

I attended a wedding here this past weekend. The scene was perfect, the good was tasty, and the service was excellent. I specifically wanted to highlight and thank a young server who at the end of the evening noticed I had lost an earring. As I was leaving she found my earring and located me as I was walking out the door. I was so happy she found the earring and was able to find me! Thank you! That is an example of excellent service.

If you want your guests, bridal party, and vendors(dj, photog) to be treated like children, this is the place for you. If you enjoy dealing with rude management, this is the place for you. Prepared to be bossed around by the staff. The food was good. And the scenery is nice, but the service just ruins the experience. Ive been here for 4 weddings over the years and have seen the same thing each time. Rude servers and especially bitchy attitude from the management. I recommend you explore other options if you’re looking for a nice place to have a wedding.

Our daughter’s wedding was at The Oaks this weekend. This was a wonderful location for a wedding. It was really neat to have the entire location booked with family and friends. It made the weekend feel like it was our own personal resort. Our room was large, clean and had a great view of the water. When we were ready for shopping, downtown St. Michaels was only 3.5 miles away. The town had plenty of bars, restaurants, and shops. For the wedding, a family room is provided for lounging during the day and served as an area for everyone to check in periodically. The organization of the guests arriving, hot coca with schnapps, moving to the wedding service on the dock, to the cocktail reception and to the dinner was smoothly handled. The dinner was outstanding. The service was remarkable. I would definitely recommend this location for a wedding.

Not great for an outdoor wedding if it might rain. I attended a wedding ceremony that was held under the covered dock. We sat in the back and couldn’t see or hear everything. There was also rain, wind, thunder and lightning! Not pleasant. The one AWESOME thing was the meal served for dinner.(I posted a photo on Unilocal) it was a Maryland Crabcake that was leaning against a perfectly cooked medium-rare steak that was topped with sautéed shiitake mushroom caps. Underneath the steak and Crabcake were freshly cooked green beans(huge difference if you normally eat yours from a can). There were also small round, peeled potatoes evenly spaced around the plate. The best part was the creamy and buttery, with a hint of salt, oyster sauce that everything was sitting in. No oyster taste though. SODELICIOUS! I want to eat that meal every day for the rest of my life.

Everything was great on our two night stay. This inn hosts weddings most spring/summer weekends. But from Tuesday to Thursday you can get a great room at a very reasonable rate. It is about 5 miles outside St. Michaels shopping, and on the way to the Oxford ferry. It is an inn, not a hotel, so you might expect to hear other guests in the hall, etc. Our room was nice – not the most up-to date in terms of appointments, but very comfortable. The grounds are wonderful. The inn sits on a «creek» which is more like a lake or river. The«creek» flows into the inlet around St. Michaels which flows into the bay. There are lots of adirondack chairs to enjoy the setting, a small pool, shuffle board, etc. A night in the inn includes breakfast, which was nothing short of great. Filling, but not too much, and perfectly prepared. We will definitely return.

My sister got married at The Oak’s this summer. The venue was beautiful, but the management was a nightmare to work with. Approximately 5 – 10 minutes after the rehearsal dinner ended they turned the lights out on the remaining guests. My sister only saw the wedding coordinator ONCE the entire day. My grandmother and step-mom’s flowers went missing for the ceremony. The reception ended at 10:00 pm and at 10:02 pm they were vacuuming, cleaning off tables, and trying to get us out of there. During the reception my sister had setup a cigar bar for all the men to smoke. A number of the guests were outside smoking cigars and as soon as the clock struck 10 they turned the lights out on them!
