2011 Map of Hollywood

About this map

Hollywood stands at the center of this southern Maryland landscape, where established communities and newer residential subdivisions meet the tidal tributaries of the Patuxent River. The area is defined by its maritime and agricultural roots, evidenced by names like Clarks Landing and Saint Cuthbert Wharf along the Cuckold Creek and Mill Creek inlets. To the south, the Saint Marys River and its Western Branch carve through the terrain, supporting the Saint Marys River Watershed Number 1 Dam and Saint Marys Lake. Local history is anchored by spiritual and civic sites, including Joy Chapel, Saint Johns Church, and Our Ladys Chapel. The presence of the Saint Marys County Airport and the expanding development around California and Wildewood illustrates the 21st-century growth patterns of Saint Marys County, while small settlements like Laceys Venture and Winterseat preserve the character of the older coastal plain.
