Pocomoke State Forest, located at 3461 Worcester Hwy, Snow Hill, MD 21863, USA, offers a natural retreat for those seeking tranquility and outdoor activities. While listed under "Campgrounds & RV Parks", this is a state forest offering camping and outdoor activities, not a private campground.
Customer reviews highlight the forest's value as a place for reflection and mental well-being. Visitors appreciate the opportunity to walk and immerse themselves in the natural environment, finding it beneficial for personal well-being.

These reports include sightings of suspicious individuals and incidents of rocks being thrown at vehicles at night. Visitors are advised to exercise caution and be aware of their surroundings, particularly during nighttime visits.

Despite these reports, Pocomoke State Forest remains a popular destination for those seeking a natural escape. The forest offers opportunities for hiking, camping, and other outdoor activities, providing a chance to connect with nature.
Potential visitors should consider both the therapeutic benefits of the forest and the reported unusual activities. It is recommended to visit during daylight hours and to be prepared for potential encounters with wildlife or other individuals.

It's a good place to visit if you need to walk a bit and collect your thoughts. The more time I spend in the woods, the more it helps my personal well-being.
Pokomoke forest is really nice although I've heard and seen some freaky things like a person camping and parked in an out of the way place acting very suspiciously I know people who had rock's thrown at their cars in the middle of the night while driving, Very creepy, gotta wonder who's hiding in the thick dark woods doing these strange things, I wouldn't stop to confront anyone without being armed to protect myself not knowing what's going on with these kinds of folks mentally
Walking with dog and the trail was beautiful and well shaded, which was great for the hot day. As another reviewer noted, be prepared for bugs. I didn't chiggers, but I did get seed ticks EVERYWHERE. I was still picking them off the next day because I just couldn't find them all. Long pants, bug spray. Check yourself (and kids and dogs!). A great natural area, beautiful for sure. I would still go again, just be more prepared.
I love the trail with the trailhead on route 113, a couple miles south of the main entrance, but when I went to walk it last week, I could see that it wasn't maintained all year and was no longer usable. Other trails in the park are poorly maintained as well. That's a shame, because it's a beautiful area.
It's still a rather large mostly forested area in Worcester County. There are some decent places to park your car throughout and go on a little nature walk. The Algonquin trail goes over 12 miles through the pocomoke Forest with many stop-off points. Be careful of the deer when driving all times of the year.
