Onancock: A Delicious Enclave

The perfect place on the Eastern Shore for a glass of wine and a few bites of cheese is the back porch of The Inn at Onancock (757/789-7711). You'll share interesting conversation with owners Kris and Lisa LaMontagne, who left fast-paced jobs in Washington, D.C., to find peace in this little village connected to the bay by Onancock Creek. Their elegant bed-and-breakfast puts emphasis on breakfast, thanks to Lisa's dozen years as a professional chef.
