Visit St. Michaels, Maryland by Boat
Visit St. Michaels the best way - by boat! Dock with us at our on-site marina, Higgins Yacht Yard & Marina, and walk a few steps over to your room at the Log Canoe Inn.
You won't find a more congenial host than Brittney. She coordinated both our stay at the Inn and docking at Higgins Marina making our first overnight trip by boat worry free. She had one of Higgins staff meet us at the slip. He set up all the dock lines and fenders for a safe stay.
