    Staff is friendly and marina is in great condition. We took a mooring ball and were still able to use the pool and laundry facilities and borrowed bikes to ride to town. Definitely on our stay here again list.

This lovely trattoria-styled eatery with waterside views is an ideal choice for a cozy, intimate dining experience. The menu is designed around bringing the bold and delicious flavors of Southern Italy to life, and includes traditional favorites as well as a few innovative surprises. The wine selection is exceptional as is the cocktail menu, which features a variety of handcrafted drinks with a signature Italian flair. Conveniently located onsite at the marina, La Vela is the perfect place to gather your family around the table.

St. Leonards Creek

This prime cruising destination on the Patuxent River is great for those looking for uncrowded anchorages with gorgeous natural surroundings. The creek is deep enough to support sailboats without a problem, and there are many picturesque coves to drop anchor and relax for a while. Skiing and other water sports are also popular activities on the creek.

Up the Patuxent River

Situated along the upper 12 miles of the Patuxent River, this gorgeous park spans 6,700 acres of farmland and other natural areas. Popular recreational activities include hunting, hiking, horseback riding, and fishing at the catch-and-release trout stream. If you’re looking for an immersive experience in nature that will appeal to the whole family, this spot makes for a great day trip.

Calvert Marine Museum

Dive into the maritime history of Chesapeake Bay with fascinating family-friendly exhibits that feature live animals, fossils, interactive exhibits, daily activities, and a cottage-style lighthouse. Visitors arriving by boat can conveniently dock at the museum with advanced notice and outside food can be enjoyed at the outdoor picnic area. Live events are often hosted here, so check the latest museum schedule when planning your trip.

Annmarie Sculpture Garden & Arts Center
