Whitehaven Hotel is a historic hotel located at Whitehaven, Wicomico County, Maryland, United States. It is a three-story, U-shaped, steeply pitches mansard-roofed Second Empire-style frame structure. The center core of the hotel is a Federal side hall / parlor dwelling, erected around 1810–1815. The hotel interior retains much of its early and later 19th century woodwork.[2]

The Whitehaven Hotel is located at the site of the Whitehaven Ferry which has crossed the Wicomico River at this location since 1687. The hotel is operating as a Bed and Breakfast with eight rooms.
