Great place to tent camp near the water. The sunsets were amazing! There are also cabins available. Hiking is minimal (about a mile), but one could rent a canoe, bike, or fish/crab, as well. Bug and fly repellent are a must. Discover for yourself the natural beauty of Jane's Island State Park in Crisfield, Maryland. I will be back! 🤗

Janes Island Park is a beautiful place. Pine trees, bike trails, walking trails, beautiful sunsets. The campgrounds are spaced nice and wide.

Nice location for a retreat! The 2nd story work room at the Doughterty Lodge comes complete with large tables and chairs. The bunks are comfy. BYO pillows and linens. Kitchen is well equipped.
