Oyster Tour and Birdwatching Too

    A lot of our guests here at the Inn are interested in getting out on the water in some way. While canoeing, kayaking and stand-up paddle boarding are great, sometimes guests like to be driven around and shown the sites by experts who know the waterways and histories like no other. Well now there’s a new and fascinating take on that theme; Chapel Creek Oyster Company.



     Chapel Creek Oyster Company is a family run oyster farm located just off the Chesapeake Bay on the scenic  Piankatank River. Trey at Chapel Creek offers eco-tours  that involve bird watching as well as seeing the oyster farm and learning how this vital species is keeping our beloved bay clean. These trips generally last 2 hours and cost $140 (up to 4 participants can take the tour for that same price).

    
For more information you can check out their website at shuckem.com. To contact them you can email Trey at trey@shuckem.com or call them at 804-815-6132. They will customize their tours to do more birdwatching and they also offer sunset cruises as well as stand-up paddle tours. Just call them for rates and information.

A Fresh Start

We at the Inn at Tabbs Creek are happy to announce that we have started a new blog. The old one had some problems so we hope the new site will work better for us. We plan on posting more often and sharing more about not just our Inn but other local features to see and visit whenever you come down to our area. We hope you enjoy it!
