Best Valentine's Day Travel Destinations Near Baltimore
The Isle of Wight on Fager's Island in Ocean City is a beautiful stretch of land that hugs the Maryland coast on Assawoman Bay, and is sheltered from the Atlantic by a coastal barrier island — a nice feature to have during the winter. The Hotel itself is a unique octagonal structure that looks a lot like a lighthouse and sits, as you might have guessed, right on the water. The rooms are all built around the outside of the "lighthouse," circling a common area which features relaxing couches around a fireplace with a bar and a game table. Your personal room will have its own deck overlooking the water, all-marble bathrooms with Jacuzzi tubs, a wet bar and feather bedding. For Valentine's day, be sure to take advantage of its Romantic Islands Getaway Package which includes two nights with dinner and lunch, health club access, evening turndown service, a bottle of champagne and a Valentines Day Memory Package.
Why take a weekend away at a fancy hotel or B&B, when you could also throw a Spa into the package? Five Gables has that, plus an indoor pool and sauna which, in February, sounds pretty nice. Speaking of cozy comfort, your room is guaranteed to have a whirlpool tub and a fireplace. The Inn itself is a collection of three 19th-century houses, sitting in a quaint little Chesapeake town, which have been tweaked just enough to keep their antique appeal while offering maximum comfort to you and your special someone. Take advantage of its His 'n' Hers Romance Package, which will cover the weekend plus cheese and wine for the room, a herbal bath and couple's massage.
Chestertown in Maryland is known for its scenic beauty and its laudable arts and entertainment district, and Brampton Inn, just outside of Chestertown, is known for being a resort exclusively for romance.

This Valentine's Day, try the "For Lovers Only Cottage Package," which includes three nights, a-la-carte breakfast, a bouquet of roses, hand-crafted dark chocolate truffles and a bottle of bubbly.
Located on the sprawling 30-acre Harper's Ferry estate of the late George Washington, Hillbrook is ideally located near some of the best wineries on the East Coast as well as the famous Summit Point Speedway and the Hollywood Casino. But for a couple more interested in staying in and enjoying one another's company than in seeing the sights, you're in luck. The rooms are decorated such that George Washington would approve, but Martha Washington would be comfortably delighted. Amenities include such things as decks and fireplaces. Each room has its own private bath, comfy robes and the hotel provides a free i-pad and wifi in each room. Hillbrook allows you to mix and match your romantic package options to make your weekend exclusive to you.
King's Cottage likes to brag about its designation as a "Top Ten Most Romantic Inn," and it has good reason to! Not only is it located in the winding, scenic countryside of Amish Pennsylvania — far away from the hustle and bustle of Baltimore life — but the romantic amenities they offer are nothing short of exotic. Book your Valentine's getaway and enjoy such treats as a couple's massage, rose-petal baths, chocolate-covered strawberries, cheese, cracker and sparkling cider trays and more! The cottage has a spa, as you may have guessed, and the estate and rooms are furnished in classic Pennsylvanian beauty.
