Winter in Somerset County has a way of slowing you down--in the best possible way. Open skies, crisp air, quiet mornings, and that comforting stillness you only find on the Eastern Shore. And when the holiday season rolls in, Sugar Water Manor becomes a warm, cozy retreat for couples, families, and groups looking to reconnect, celebrate, or simply breathe a little deeper.
If you're dreaming of a festive gathering, a peaceful winter escape, or a memory-making getaway with the people you love most, now is the perfect time to book your holiday stay. Winter here is charming, calm, and wonderfully cozy--and The Loft, The Homestead, and The Farmhouse are ready to welcome you.
Find Your Perfect Winter Stay: The Loft, The Homestead & The Farmhouse
Each of our three lodging spaces offers its own unique winter charm--think soft lights, warm textures, and that "we're finally home" feeling the moment you walk in.
The Loft -- Peaceful, Bright, and Perfect for Two
Bathed in gentle natural light and tucked away from everything, The Loft is a serene hideaway for couples or solo travelers looking to unwind. Curl up with a warm drink, watch the winter sunrise through big windows, or settle in for games, crafting, or a slow, cozy afternoon.

Looking to bring everyone together? The Homestead is your spot. With room to spread, cook holiday meals, play games, and gather around the table, it's designed for families and friend groups (of up to 4) who want to reconnect and celebrate without stress.
