Lovely Spring Break
We stayed here at the end of March with our family of 3 kids ages 3 to 13 and Grandma. Crabbing season doesn’t start until April so we found some things in the area were closed for the season, but it didn’t matter because we had a fantastic time at this magical waterfront property. They have taken great care of this historical property and filled it with so many interesting artifacts! We enjoyed fishing off the dock, and seeing ospreys, bald eagles, herons and numerous song birds. We brought our bikes and enjoyed several rails to trails bike paths in the area. Just a short drive to town and all of its charming shops. Owner was wonderful, beds comfortable, great communication. We hope we can return soon!

Amazing property with views for Miles (pun intended)!!!!
A true original Chesapeake Bay Eastern Shore estate with terrific water access via nice dock into the beautiful Miles River. The house is filled with so very many historic and labeled artifacts and antiques. Lots of sitting areas throughout the home and a wonderful wrap around screened in porch overlooking the water. We will be back!

We enjoyed our time spent at Cranford on the Miles. The house and property was well provided for. The screened in porch was enjoyed all weekend by all of us even our four legged friends. We would definitely recommend this property for a relaxing stay at St. Michaels.

Lovely historic house on the water
We just recharged at this lovely, thoughtfully restored and thoroughly modernized historic house on the water. From watching spectacular sunrises, working crab boats and a magnificent great heron perched on the dock to learning more about the area and being surrounded by articles and items from the house’s historical era, our stay was a delight.

Perfect Spot
The location of this property is fantastic It is on a quiet river with a dock for fishing, a little beach for young children and a beautiful space for kayaking. The house is well equipped and beautifully furnished. The kitchen had every appliance and tool that anyone would need. We ate our dinners on the wraparound porch while enjoying the breezes. There is plenty of space for everyone inside and out. While we spent most mornings at the house, we also took advantage of the opportunities nearby. St. Michael's is only a few miles away for meals out and shopping. Our family particularly enjoyed the Chesapeake Bay Maritime Museum in St. Michaels and ferry trip from Bellevue to Oxford for ice cream. This three generations of family is still talking about how much fun this vacation was and are still recounting memories of the best moments. The owners of this property have made this a really special destination house.

Relaxing weekend by the water
This was the perfect place for our Memorial Day girls trip! We spent the weekend doing yoga on the dock, cooking meals together in the large kitchen, eating dinner on the screen porch, and watching the sunrise. It was also very quick and easy to get into town in St Michaels for restaurants and shopping. We would love to come back!

Interesting historic property
Everything was as described and photos were accurate. Lots of nice space and we enjoyed watching the horseshoe crabs on the beach and saw a tiny jellyfish and what may have been dolphins in the river. The wifi worked fine and we really enjoyed the cute town of St. Michaels and the maritime museum.
