Historic Manor House on Beautiful Eastern Shore Estate

Four generations of my family, aged 8 to 80, spent Christmas week here. There was something for everyone in the house and on the property. The antebellum mansion has been beautifully restored, with the addition of modern bathrooms and a gorgeous modern kitchen. It’s a beautiful, comfortable space for a family celebration.

Peaceful and tranquil. The inside was classic. The outside was filled with natural beauty and variety.

We had a great time. We showed up with our stuff, and everything was ready to go. We were impressed with the number of items in the kitchen that we could use to prep our meals. The place is gigantic inside and out, and the property is beautifully maintained. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay and are thinking it may be a required revisit next Summer!

An amazing property and top tier service and communication from the property owner.

We grew up going to our family's Bay house in the Summer and loved it. I wanted a similar experience for when my sister and her family were here in town from Hawaii. This was amazingly perfect. The tree lined gravel driveway was picturesque. The blowing wheat fields in the background of this home were like a painting. The home itself was so well maintained and updated. We had plenty of space and each person could have their own room not allowing for fights with the teens. The kitchen was updated and we enjoyed cooking and eating take out in the spacious area. We played soothing music in the cozy family room while we played cards together. The pool was just the right temperature on a hot sunny day. My morning runs around the property on the trails made the start of my day enjoyable. Nights catching fireflys brought us back to our childhood. The proximity to downtown Chestertown and Rock Hall was great to enjoy shopping and dining out. I will definitely be back!!

The home is really impressive. 200 year old manor house with updates to satisfy the needs of our group of 12. The pool was very nice. Plenty of sleeping, cooking and eating areas.

We celebrated Thanksgiving with our extended family and 91 yo mother. Living spaces were spacious to accommodate all. It is an old house so 3rd floor bedrooms were not meant for tall folk with sloping ceilings. Dining room table extended to seat 14 for all meals. Kitchen has every thing you could need plus plenty of space to have multiple cooks in the kitchen! We sampled some of the “estate” wine from the vineyard outside and walked the beautiful drive many times to work of our turkey dinner! Would absolutely stay here again The property is beautiful

Perfect property for our annual vacation with all the kids and grand kids! Loved the property and the secluded location - but still close enough to town. Beautiful, well-kept manor with everything you need. Loved the pool and the spacious grounds! Absolutely gorgeous!

We had the best vacation in this historical beautiful home. Everyone in our family had awesome time. House was very comfortable and clean. Loved the pool area. I only wish they had more shaded area by the pool. Property manager Mathew was very friendly and helpful in making sure that all our needs were met. Definitely recommend this home. Love to come back.

The Thornton Estate was above and beyond what my family was expecting. A historic home on an amazing piece of land. Dealing with the team that manages the house made the entire process a breeze. We would love to return in the future.
