We came to hike the scenic Mason-Dixon trail along the Susquehanna. The first 3.5 miles are flat, parallel to the river. Starting at the railroad bridge, the first mile is a well-traveled wooded path followed by a much wider rail/bike trail to the dam. Despite covid, it’s moderately used but there was plenty of room to avoid others. At the dam, the trail starts heading finally into the woods and becomes sparsely used. We walked a pleasant 7+ miles. Good for kids and adults of all ages. Great scenery - birds, water, flowers.

This park has a nice view of the upper bay and eastern shore as well as a lot of equipment for kids to play on such as a dragon (!) and climbing gyms. Great for the under 8 set!

This is a great little park to take a quick nap as you wait on the MV Summer Cruise. I had to wake my husband up who was sitting under a tree feeling the summer breeze. There is nothing there to buy so if you need to spend money to have a good time skip this one. . The water was so very relaxing. There was no loud music . I felt really safe. Several handicap spaces are close . The town built a bathroom for travelers which was clean.
