Has anyone spent time in Rock Hall, MD?

How long did you stay? What was the restaurant scene like? Thanks.

There isn’t much there and there is no “scene” of any type. Don’t know what you were expecting.

Kids are going to camp nearby. We are debating between there, Chestertown and St. Michaels, but don't really want to drive the 90 minutes to St. Michaels. DH and I are just looking at downtown together in a nice spot. There are a number of lodgings choices but I haven't seen much about restaurants.

There are a couple of cute B&Bs and a couple of crab dock type of restaurants… and that’s it. It’s a cute town, but there is not much to do. You’ll walk the entire thing in 10 minutes - a cafe, some cute artsy shops, some outdoor artist stalls, and nice colonial architecture.

We went on a family trip for a big triathlon they host in the fall once. It was a fun family weekend, but very low key.

Chestertown has a LOT more going on. Some very good restaurants - The Retriever, Watershed Alley, and The Kitchen at the Imperial, Modern Stone Age Kitchen, Stam’s for ice cream. A nice farmers market on Saturday and some cute shops and art galleries. The Kent County Alliance and the Garfield Theater also have events/shows.

St. Michael's will be more fun than your other choices.

There is a nature area, but, if you don't love birds, it isn't interesting.

Chestertown is low key the most racist town in Md.

Chestertown actually has a cute downtown plus a nice campus. I’d stay there.

+1. Yes, they have more going on there because of the college. And some really great restaurants.

Another town you can walk in 10 minutes, with a few mediocre restaurants and not much else.

Op here and this is what I'm thinking as well. Plus it's more expensive than other possibilities.
