Review:

Located on the broad Choptank River on Maryland’s Eastern Shore, Cambridge is a charming town where you will find a rich maritime heritage and a vibrant, friendly ambiance. Explore the history of the town with a walking tour, which takes you to the Richardson Maritime Museum and the Ruark Boatworks, where you’ll learn about boat-building, sailing, and the bustling seafood industry of crab-catching and oyster-dredging. Dorchester County’s flat, quiet roads are ideal for cycling.

Hire bikes to explore the countryside, or get up close and personal with nature and its wildlife at the Blackwater National Wildlife Refuge, and spot bald eagles in their nest with an Eagle Cam. The town has many parks and playgrounds - head to the Long Wharf Park to climb beautiful old trees against a picturesque backdrop of the Choptank Lighthouse, beautiful marina and the cries of seagulls.

Where to Stay: Hyatt Regency Chesapeake Bay Golf Resort, Spa and Marina has rooms with balconies, a championship golf course, indoor and outdoor pools and a spa.

Don’t Miss: Breckenridge Adventures is a wonderland of fun with a nine-acre corn maze to explore in the fall, year-round paint ball and a host of other children’s activities on the 10-acre farm just outside the town.
