Fort Lincoln
Historical place
๐Ÿ‘๐Ÿ‘ I love historic sites. This was an unexpected trip and a fun adventure! It is an earthen fort so it was really interesting to see it as the people who were there so long ago. My kids enjoyed it and considering it is inside the park, there was plenty to do and see there before and afterwards. It didn...

Historic Sotterley
History museum
๐Ÿ‘๐Ÿ‘ I traveled to the area all because of Sotterley, which I heard of in a book I read called Sunflower Sisters. We did the grounds and house tour with Eve who was a wonderful guide. We chose this rather than the self tour so that we could hear all the stories etc that you don't otherwise get. Not only...

The hours of operation during the winter months are 8AM TO SUNSET and change to 7AM TO SUNSET in springtime and summertime. SUNSET IS A SPECIFIC TIME...

Point Lookout Lighthouse
Historical landmark
๐Ÿ‘๐Ÿ‘ Did not enter the lighthouse as we were there after hours to see the sunset. There is only one informational plaque outside so if you are interested in learning about the light it would be best to go when it's open. Beautiful setting, a small area of beach otherwise it is all very rocky along the po...

St. Clement's Island Museum
History museum
๐Ÿ‘๐Ÿ‘ Definitely worth it to come check out. I recommend paying the $7 for the additional boat ride and getting able to walk across the island. I can't believe it was once 400+ acres. When you get off the boat head left and walk around the island (15min walk) and see the big cross and light house. The...

Distillery
๐Ÿ˜ Started out on a positive note. But the service deteriorated quickly. Ordered burgers w/everything. Did not receive even half of everything. No apologies from the waitress who tried to blame it on us for ordering everything. First drink was great. Second was syrupy sweet. Wanted to love this place.

Snow Hill Park

๐Ÿ‘๐Ÿ‘ Love this place. However make sure you bring bug spray the flies and nats are terrible, somedays. Also I would suggest swimming shoes, there are lots of sharp rocks, and old wood on the river floor. I do really like the fact that they are opening during the week day at noon starting July 15, but the...

๐Ÿ˜  Go elsewhere. 25 dollars to enter since I live in Charles County. Cash or check only - not sure why they can't accept credit/debit cards....it's 2022. Not sure when this became a "county park" - I've surely entered here without this 25 dollar fee in the past.
