About this map

Potomac River views and complex shoreline features define this section of the Maryland peninsula, where the Potomac meets the mouth of the Saint Marys River. The landscape is dotted with long-established religious sites and community hubs, including Saint Georges Poplar Hill Episcopal Cem near Valley Lee and the Holy Face Parish Cem in the north. The southern tip is anchored by Piney Point, a prominent landform featuring a network of coastal residential areas such as Tall Timbers and Andover Estates.

The maritime character of the region is evident in the numerous coves and bars, such as McKay Cove and the Herring Run Bar. Inland, the Potomac Heritage National Scenic Trail winds through the territory, connecting rural crossroads like Chingville and Callaway. The map captures a mix of public spaces like Saint George Park and private beach communities, illustrating the region's enduring appeal as a waterfront destination.
