There is a well maintained public boat ramp here with shaded parking overlooking the St.Mary's River, a pic-nic pavilion, porto-potties and a nice meadow for recreation. There are unmarked trails that lead various spots along the rivers edge as well. This is also an excellent place to launch canoes, kayaks and small john boats from!

My son and I go there pretty much every day, it’s the best place to swim out here that I know of. Looking for places to go camping though without being bothered by the riffraff that show up at night time. I just don’t want to have my tent smashed in by a belligerent drunkards liquor bottle, Or have to fear for any of our lives due to reckless people waving guns around. Which I have heard of happening quite often, And don’t get me wrong I enjoy a little fear as much as the next guy, but these kids out here who Drink, have pretty high opinions of themselves. A drunk jit finds his place reaaaal quick.

A great place for picnics, family outings, swimming and boating on the St. Mary's River. White sandy beach with a sandy bottom. Fishing is great. A free boat ramp and parking.

Unfortunately, our visit to the Boy Scout camp was underwhelming. The place felt trashy and poorly maintained, with litter around some of the campsites and common areas. It lacked the natural charm and care you'd expect from a place meant for outdoor adventures. Privacy was another big letdown—sites were way too close together, and there wasn’t much in the way of trees or buffers to give you that quiet, tucked-away feeling. If you're looking for a peaceful, private camping experience, this probably isn’t it. Overall, it just didn’t live up to expectations. With a little cleanup and better site planning, it could be something special—but as it stands, we won’t be back.
