This is absolutely beautiful historic place. Lighthouse is amazing. Worth the entry fee.

Very nice state park. We launched our kayaks at the boat launch, very nice and easy and paddled around the inner bay. We then drove to the beach and picnic area which was very nice and went swimming, beautiful day and beautiful park

This is a great place for outing, great options for picnic, lot of BBQ tables. Beach with tap for washout / bath. But this time water quality was not looking good, lots of jellyfish, water with algae..

My wife has limited mobility, so we always look for a park where you can see a lot from the car or an easy, short walk. This is such a park. We are not Maryland residents, so the entrance fee was $17. The lighthouse building is beautiful inside, and we were able to purchase bottles of water there. We walked to the beach, and it was easy to access. There were many folks out swimming, and there was a lifeguard patrolling the beach. Overall, this was a nice place to visit. We highly recommend it.
