You have to pop by McCalvert Point when you're here at Chews Lake, and Depot Pond is a nearby lake that you could visit. This lake is so wonderful. Duncan's Family Campground is a great campground nearby, and Executive Inn and Suites is a great spot to get some rest. After a long day outdoors Sleep Inn & Suites Upper Marlboro is a delightful place to spend a night or two; why not take a refreshing hike along the Loop Trail. At Chews Lake you always meet someone

This lake is so wonderful. While you're here at Chews Lake you can play some golf at Marlborough Golf Club, and if you come
at the right time of year, Anacostia River offers some fine whitewater. That right there is lots already, but it continues; Chews Lake has it all. Take a hike on the Cross Road Trail, and since you're here, you could stop at Black
Walnut Creek. Stay the night at Cedarville State Park, and if you get bored of Chews Lake you could also stop at close by Schoolhouse Pond.

...ated on the Ft. Meade army post is a beautiful nature preserve with picnic facilities for large and small groups. A well-maintained path runs around the entire lake where you can normally find soldiers, retirees and their families out for a stroll or a leisurely run. We can all thank the tightening of security due to terrorism for making the lake's having less access. You must have proper ID (Government/Military issued ID) to enter the post, unless it is pre-arranged such as for family reunions and such. The Ft. Meade MWR people take good care of the lake and it's surroundings and nature teems. You will normally find ducks and geese swimming in the lake, some have made it their home. Migratory birds also have put this lake on their itinerary! There is fishing in the lake and also a healthy turtle population. Beavers also have taken up residence in one area and by some of the ''missing'' trees you can tell that they have been there. There is also a resident blue heron that can often be found on the shore of the lake or amongst the greenery on the little island in the middle. ... |
