he Robert Morris Inn, dating
back to 1710 is one of the oldest historic inns in the United States. Robert
Morris, Jr. helped finance the Revolutionary War, numbered George Washington
among his friends, and was a signer of the Declaration of Independence, the
Articles of 
Confederation,
and the United States Constitution. The Main Inn and Lodge are situated next
to the Tred Avon River (off the Chesapeake Bay) in the colonial village of Oxford,
Maryland. We are only 6 miles from St. Michaels, 10 miles from Easton and Cambridge,
and 20 miles from Tilghman Island.
The water bound village of Oxford was once Maryland's largest port of call,
and it is still an important center for boat building and yachting. Oxford is
a protected harbor for the watermen who harvest oysters, crabs, clams and fish,
and for sailors from all over the Bay.
The Inn crowns the north end of Morris Street. Additional accommodations are
offered at the Inn's Sandaway Lodge located one-half block away, on two acres
of waterfront property complete with private beach. Guests may choose to stay
in one of the quaint Inn rooms or in the Sandaway, where many rooms have 
private
porches overlooking the water . All guest rooms have private baths and are decorated
with comfortable country furnishings.
For the ultimate Chesapeake experience ask for Sandaway Suite. Your first floor
bedroom with a canopy king bed, soaking tub for two, and side porch is located
at Sandaway Lodge. Your separate sitting room is located on the beach with views
of the river in 3 directions. Great sunsets!
