"We ended up being here for three and a half hours, there was so much to see. It was a very interesting history lesson of Chesapeake Bay. I won't spoil it for you with a bunch of details, but visit it, and you'll be pleasantly surprised ❤️"
"Great spot to take in local history and beautiful water views. You can spend 90 mins here or easily over 2-3 hours if you take your time to enter all the buildings. Great for families and dog friendly. Would recommend, especially if looking to support the local community."
"A whole lot of history on display all oer the site. The boat building house was great. Everyone was very willing to fill you in on what was being built and restored. A ver nice gentleman who was painting their newest boat answered a lot of questions about why certain paints and varnishes were chosen and about applying them. So many boats and information all around the grounds."
"Lovely place to just sit and relax looking at the bay. Lighthouse and boar workshops interesting. Definitely recommend taking Patriotic cruise to finish trip off."
"We had an amazing experience yesterday at their homeschool day. We had the pleasure of having Melissa and Alyssa as our tour guides. They were so great with the kids. Extremely knowledgeable. I really commend them! My kids really enjoyed the entire lesson which was about 1.5 hours learning about oysters and their roll in the bay. Thanks for a great day full of learning and fun!"
