This harborside cafe is a terrific find ! Located across the street from the Black Duck Inn (same ownership), this seasonal delight specializes in fresh, eclectic fare. Everything is made by the 3 women who run the place ... including the crusts for their incredible pizzas. You haven't lived until you've had their fruit pizzas ... beautiful to behold and... More

We were in Rock Hall for a wedding and stayed in the Carter room at the Black Duck Inn. The room was very nice and Kate made us feel very welcome. Great views and a good (included) breakfast at the cafe. We would stay here again.

We did not... More

The Best in Rock Hall. Great location and docks for boats! Fun and friendly place to visit and the cafe was excellent. Never rushed. Superb location - we walked to all the pirates weekend activities. Never had to use the car!

Our first time in Rock Hall and did we ever select the right place to stay. The inn is quaint but not over done and all the rooms (that we peaked into) were cozy and comfy. It was over 100 degrees and we were as cool a cukes in our room! Sitting out front on the screened in porch is... More

We arrived by boat. Kate met us on the pier and pointed out our slip. We were made to feel welcome the moment we met Kate, LB, and another lady-sorry I don't remember her name. The Black Duck in is across the street from the Dock Side Cafe. It is a cute old converted home. The rooms are nice, have... More

Relaxing environment with everything you need. A great "getaway from it all" place to go and look out onto the harbor.

This inn is ideally located near the banks of the Chesapeake and near two of the better Rock Hall restaurants. Also on the plus side was the firm mattress on our king bed. However, there was no maid service, no hot breakfast (muffins and fruit only), and the building needs some updating. There are better choices in the area.
