My wife and I have stayed at many B&Bs, none more satisfying than the Back Creek Inn. By far, the most enjoyable facet of this inn is its owner, Carol Pennock. She is clearly interested in every guest's enjoyment of their stay. She is very personable, has an interesting life story, and takes time to mix with her guests. The... More

We decided to visit the Western side of the Chesapeake Bay in Maryland for a change and we decided on this lovely place. There are rooms in the main house and another separate building for visitors. They have a lovely garden and patio that faces the water. This is an older B & B, but the rooms were delightful and... More

We spent two wonderful nights in October at the inn and it's now one of our favorite places. We spent hours sitting on the patio or pier watching the boats pass by....so peaceful! The inn is within walking distance of town and the Maritime Museum which was well worth a visit. Carol and her staff are so welcoming and the... More

This was our first trip to Solomons and Back Creek Inn was the perfect choice. We loved that the yard and gardens sloped right down to the water; our first afternoon was spent enjoying the view from 2 comfy Adirondack chairs on the lawn. We appreciated being able to walk to dinner each night as well as to the Marine... More

This was my first visit to Carol Pennock's Back Creek Inn and I'm hooked. You have a choice of six rooms or a private cottage, overlooking the water and surrounded by gardens that are as perfect as her artwork. The aromas coming from the kitchen were nearly intoxicating. The staff is terrific and helpful, the location is superb, and the... More

This is an absolutely wonderful B&B to enjoy yourself with a great location on the water in beautiful Solomons Island, MD. Pampered by Carol, the owner, and her wonderful staff, especially Marcia, who cooks a fantastic breakfast. Carol's artwork is displayed throughout the cottage and rooms of the main house. My wife and I brought along our kayaks and toured... More

I checked out this B&B on TripAdvisor and made reservations for three nights – just to relax (I’m a widower, now in my 80’s). It was an excellent choice and I thought the B&B ideal. I just reread the many reviews and find I can’t add much without being repetitive. So just a couple of things: 1) Not only is... More

My husband and I just returned from a weekend stay at Back Creek Inn. This was also our first visit to Solomons Island. We enjoyed both the inn and the location and hope to return when the weather is more comfortable. Unfortunately, the heat, humidity, and mosquitoes limited our ability to enjoy the terrific location of this inn, which has... More

We enjoyed a lovely weekend at the Back Creek Inn this summer. The staff was so friendly and hospitable...even waited up for our late arrival. The Inn is so relaxing and peaceful and a perfect getaway for a low key weekend away. Breakfast both mornings was delicious. The Inn is decorated with lovely art work, most of it by Carole... More

My husband and I were visiting a son working nearby...he suggested we find a B&B on Solomon's Island. After looking over the possibilities we chose Back Creek...and each staff member was "just right". Kitchen staff assisted us to leave early so we could go "crabbing" with our son a o'dark thirty. Then when we decided to go out early fishing... More
