Blue Crab Cottage welcomes you to the scenic Wicomico River with the ‘best sunsets' in the county. Wake up to water views in front and behind the cottage. Guests enjoy access to the 3 waterfront piers. Tour the 4+ acres and see the multitude of wildlife. Our favorite are the birds, Osprey, herons and eagles abound. Sip your coffee on the front porch relaxing to the sights and sounds of the river.

Saint Clements Island museum is where you can learn about the first landing in St Mary’s, St. Mary's College and historic grounds all showcasing Maryland’s oldest county.

Delectable restaurants like the Front Porch, the Rex, T&J Coves (great deal on crab cakes) and Old Towne Pub in Leonardtown, Foxy Fish in Hughesville, and best crab cake around at Scuttlebutts in Cobb Island.
