CommentsThis site is for canoes and kayaks (cartop boats) only. There is plenty of parking next to the sportsfields. A long portage is required to access the water. Follow the paved trail for approximately 400 yards to the water’s edge. There is a steep slope right before the put-in area. This site does not permit swimming, camping, trailers, alcohol, fires or overnight parking. In Anne Arundel County a "cartop" boat refers to a canoe or kayak, although a boat that can be carried on or in a passenger vehicle that can be transported by hand to the water may qualify as a cartop boat. None of the County's cartop boat launch sites has a ramp for trailered boats.
