Dream Spring Break in Maryland: Where I’d Go if Money Was No Object

When you think of luxe travel, what typically comes to mind? Does it include a cross-country flight? Perhaps a new stamp on your passport? If you're a lucky Maryland resident, a world-class getaway doesn't require much travel at all. I've discovered an Eastern Shore Airbnb that could stand up to just about any resort. And while the nightly rate may be a bit higher than your average hotel stay, we think you'll agree that the splurge is worth it.

This sleek, modern, state-of-the-art converted barn makes quite an impression upon arrival. It's perched on the edge of a private farm field, blending seamlessly with the Eastern Shore landscape yet commanding awe. The building's simple exterior and classic design bring to mind a traditional barn design, and yet what you'll find inside is one of the most elegant stays imaginable.

Let's start with the numbers: The space features three bedrooms, with five beds, and three-and-a-half baths. There's enough space for up to seven guests to stay comfortably. The space is decidedly modern, with a touch of industrial chic mixed into the aesthetic. There's a full kitchen with everything required of a gourmet chef, and a dining space where you can gather with your crew.

But the real star of the show? An entire wall made of windows draws your eye outside to the stunning river view. The effect is such that you feel like you're outside even while you're indoors, enjoying the ever-changing view of the water and the abundance of natural light that floods the space. Guests will be able to enjoy this view while in the living room or on the second-floor balcony. The bedrooms also benefit from tons of natural light, and their clean, comfortable design is both lovely and functional.

Up the spiral staircase is another unique feature: the Silo. This lofted area features a triple bunk bed and two King bedrooms, one of which includes a lovely en suite bathroom.

When the weather calls for it, be sure to take advantage of the outdoor space. A gravel walking path leads to a dedicated seating area with views of the water. It's the perfect place to unwind with a glass of wine or mug of tea while watching water activity. Or, for a real treat, wake early and enjoy spotting wildlife.

This top-notch vacation home on the Eastern Shore benefits from a secluded and remote location and most guests enjoy staying put during their stay. But if you want to venture out, the town of Easton, Maryland is nearby and makes for a charming day trip destination.
