“We couldn’t have asked for a more stunning venue for our wedding. The waterfront views were breathtaking, and provided the perfect backdrop for our ceremony and photos. The gentle sound of waves and the picturesque scenery made our day feel like a fairytale. The Anchorage was incredibly accommodating and professional, ensuring everything ran smoothly. We are so grateful for the amazing memories created at this beautiful venue.” – Emily and Stephen
We had our wedding in July 2023 at the Anchorage B&B. We couldn’t recommend it enough. Woody and Michelle were so welcoming and accommodating. From the beginning planning stages until we left, they were attentive, helpful and just overall amazing. They made sure our wedding was flawless and we could not be more thankful for them! The space was BEAUTIFUL – picture perfect. They now have a pavilion that has been build specifically for weddings – it was not finished yet during our stay, so i can only imagine how much it has enhanced the experience of other weddings they’ve had there! We can’t thank Woody and Michelle enough for their amazing amazing amazing hospitality. They made our wedding weekend absolutely perfect. – Erin and Michael

What our Guests are Saying: “This B & B is right off of Rt. 50, but once you are on the property, the highway is a million miles away. The beautiful Choptank River is within a short stroll, and all you can hear are the sounds of nature. The accommodations were clean, modern and nicely decorated. Breakfast was delicious with special touches like a formally set table, fresh biscuits with homemade blackberry jam and pesto eggs. The kayaks are easily accessible and a quiet cove is nearby or, of course, the entire river. I highly recommend this venue for a couple, family or even a wedding.” Linda, Towson, MD
