Elk Neck State Park

Beautiful Park. A few areas are closed for repairs and upgrades. Parking for the lighthouse has been expanded and is open. So much better than the old gravel lot with only a few Parking spots. Close to North East MD.

Great quiet place to get away from busy life style. The trail has gotten shorter than before since they have constructed a new large parking lot. Looks much better than before and clean. Great picnic spot right by the water.

A Peaceful spot in Chesapeake Bay. We hiked the lighthouse trail and the Wapiti pond trail. Luckily the lighthouse was open during Memorial weekend. And the volunteer who guided tourists was the descendant of the lighthouse keeper more than a hundred years ago. He spent Memorial Day in a perfect way, at the spot where he grew up. We had fun hiking, the air full of the sweet aroma of honeysuckles. Mountain laurels were blooming everywhere. A wonderful day trip.

Beautiful, steeped in history and natural stunning scenery. Loved the lighthouse and the beech where the water was as warm as a bath.

We had a fantastic time! We had 2 camp sites- 167 and 169- which looked out over the river. Camp host was very friendly and informative. Looking forward to staying here next year. Enjoyed seeing the wildlife!

I visited Turkey Point Lighthouse at Elk Neck State Park on 10/26/25 for a wedding proposal. The view was beautiful, landscaping was well maintained, and the staff were incredibly friendly. Park Ranger Jimmy was extremely helpful and personable.

We stayed at the campground, we are usually fall/ winter campers. So needless to say we were hot, and the bugs were a little much. The beach was closed during the week, we couldn't swing the weekend for camping this time around. The site was nice,close to the camp store which had weird hours, 2 pm-8:30 pm but the bathroom and showers were really clean 2 showers 3 or 4 bathroom stalls. The sites were well maintained. Overall it was a nice 3 days
