    Very nice beach. I went mid week so it wasn't that busy at all. The beach is kinda rocky, as well as the water, the were several boulders underneath the water my foot hit until I became awar of them. Overall all I loved it and will definitely be going again.

    Not called Rocky Point for no reason. This beach was ok. It was a nice country feeling drive right outside of Baltimore city. They have roped off areas for swimming access but we came after closing time so there were no life guards available. The end time was a little early in my opinion but it was a cloudy day anyway so that wasn't what killed the experience. We took a few family photos and headed on our way. I cut my toe pretty bad on some hidden rocks in the sand. The sand is full of sharp rocks so please don't let your little ones play in it unattended or without shoes. Definitely not your white sanded beach.

    The beach was quite and beautiful

    Beach was peaceful and clean. We enjoyed our visit and plan on going back. Highly recommend this beach

    This place is a slice of heaven. Sandy beach, picnic areas, kids playground, ample parking, lifeguards, and fairly clean water. I discovered it over the weekend online and I've been twice this week. If you can't get over to the shore, this is a decent consultation for a day.

    Small beach. Brown, contaminated Chesapeake Bay water. Nothing going on here. Lots of interesting people though.

    a magnificent state park offering endless opportunities for outdoor adventure! with scenic hiking…read moretrails, beautiful river views, kayak and canoe launches, and peaceful picnic areas, it is a perfect destination for nature lovers, families, and anyone looking to relax outdoors.

    Divided into 6 parts, it's not possible to do it in one day or even one week. Each part is…read moredifferent, although there is overlap. It could take a lifetime to get to know this park well. It's pretty huge. In fact, it's Maryland's largest state park. I spent 4 days here camping recently and barely scratched the surface. There are lots of hiking trails for all levels. There are numerous bike trails that are flat and easy, including the famous Torrey C. Brown rail trail that goes for about 20 miles and crosses into Pennsylvania. And there's also a fair amount of mountain bike trails that range from moderate to difficult. There are places to swim and picnic too. All of it is family friendly. Essentially, the park is the land all along both sides of the Little Gunpowder Falls River. You'll just have to see it for yourself. I can recommend Jesse's Trail and Pleasantville area loop for mountain biking; Torrey C. Brown rail trail (an all-weather trail made of crushed stone that's flat and smooth) for both hiking and biking; and Hobo Beach for a dip in the water. Parking can be challenging, so the earlier in the day, the better.

    Visited here last week, during the off-season so the bathrooms weren't open and there wasn't any…read morestaff available, but had a great time (until I got my motorized chair stuck in the sand, but that's my fault and I can't hold my carelessness against this place). My mom, boyfriend and I brought some take-away to the park for lunch. There are several picnic tables available, on a concrete patio, overlooking the water. It was a perfect shaded spot, listening to the lapping of the water against the shore, watching a flock of geese feed in the distance on the water. During the popular season it seems that you can rent kayaks, paddle boats, and jetskis. There's usually a lifeguard and some other stuff, but we visited in mid-September and on a Wednesday, so it was quiet. My favorite thing ever though was that they have one of those mats that make it possible for wheelchair users to travel across the sand, and to the packed sand near the water. I have seen these in actual Miami, and Myrtle Beach but neither of those places actually took them seriously. The one in Coney Island was very close to the one I experienced in Middle River, the mat ends only feet from the water. If you're an able-bodied person, bless you, but you cannot understand the utmost delight in finding a place that remembers that people in wheelchairs exist, and also love to be near the water. It's absolutely wonderful to be remembered and accommodated. Loved my afternoon here. Would recommend.
