Laurel Grove Inn on the South River

After alot of research on where to stay in Annapolis, we decided on this property based on favorable reviews from several different websites. The moment we arrived at the front door, we suspected that these reviews were not so accurate. Our suspicions were confirmed shortly after looking around the place. Although the owner/innkeeper was very warm & friendly, it was obvious that she did not have experience in the hospitality field. The property, both inside and out, was an incredible mess. It clearly hadn't been cleaned in quite a while.Cobwebs, dust, a shattered widow, bugs, dog hair, in the public rooms. Dirty dishes in the sink, crumbs on the counters, food left out in the public kitchen. There was old coffee & moldy grinds left in the coffee pot in our room. The bathroom was worse, with a dirty towel with make-up on it & hair in the bathtub. We actually scrubbed the shower & tub clean before we used it. We had to ask for shampoo & soap, and were given used trial sized samples. One of the beds had hair inside, after pulling back the sheets. There was a "family" of bugs crawling around the dirty carpet, and seemed to be multiplying daily. There was dog urine in both the public kitchen & the game room that had not been cleaned up during our entire stay. There was several piles of dog feces outside the front door, which were also never cleaned up.
The grounds were unkept, an old covered hot tub and a very unstable gazebo that was falling down & propped up by a tractor.
This property has so much potential to be fantastic. It was a shame and very sad to see that the owners do not value their amazing location, nor their paying guests. Like I said, we would not recommend staying here. Ever.

Laurel Grove Inn on the South River

It was fun and we felt so welcome. The innkeepers were very accommodating; we really enjoyed meeting them and their family. The location was beautiful, the house overlooks the South River and breakfast was served on the deck.
