WELCOME TO MERRIWEATHER LAKEHOUSE, AUTOGRAPH COLLECTION

A boutique hotel stay as serene as the lake it sits on.

Merriweather Lakehouse sits on the edge of Lake Kittamaqundi in Columbia, MD—where lakefront calm meets the energy of live music, local dining and arts just steps away. It’s the kind of place that feels like a world apart, even when everything is within reach.

Settle into spa-inspired rooms designed for genuine rest. Spend an afternoon at the rooftop pool overlooking the water, linger over a meal at the restaurant or let the lake set the pace. When the occasion calls for it, our event spaces and collaborative areas are built for groups who want something more than a standard meeting room.

Whether you’re here for a concert weekend, a private celebration, a corporate offsite or simply a well-earned escape—Merriweather Lakehouse was made for it.

Free parking. Complimentary WiFi. Pet-friendly. Connected to Baltimore and Washington, DC via I-95.
