CeCil County ◆ Maryland
OUR TOWNS ~ WITH BEAUTY & CHARM ALL THEIR OWN!
◆ CeciltonIn its early years Cecilton began as a cross-roads, and is located in the southern part of the County between the Bohemia River and Sassafras River. The Cecilton area is home to several exquisite manor homes and colonial estates, and rich farmland still surrounds the town today. Just outside town visit beau-tiful Mt. Harmon Plantation for a tour of the house, colonial kitchen, and grounds. 410-275-2692
◆ CharlestownChartered in 1742 on the banks of the North East River, the historic district has restored private homes from the 1700s. Initially the pri-mary seaport for MD and southern PA, a stone wharf now serves anglers and boaters. Visitors can arrive at the restaurants and marinas by car or by boat, and the last remaining historic “Ice House” on the entire Chesapeake Bay stands on the waterfront. 410-287-6173
◆ Chesapeake CityOnce known as the “Village of Bohemia,” this town developed with the creation of the C&D Canal. As shipping traffic ensued, houses and businesses sprang up alongshore. Today the picturesque tourist destination has a color-ful 1800s flair, with charming inns, shops, a museum, and waterfront eateries. Ships and pleasure boats from around the globe still pass through the canal and under the majestic bridge. 410-885-5298
◆ ElktonBecause of its strategic location at the head of the Bay, it was once a shipping port and pas-senger transportation route, known then as Head of Elk. In the 20th Century it was known as a popular marriage destination. Today Elkton is the County Seat bustling with business activ-ity, and home to the county’s first active Arts & Entertainment District with shops, galleries, and more to see and do. 410-398-0970
◆ North EastThe Northeast River played a significant role in the early years of the town. Mills were built, and farmers and fishermen prospered. St. Mary Anne’s church (c. 1700s) has one of the oldest graveyards in the state. Today you will find an abundance of antique and gift shops, a wide array of wonderful restaurants, a waterfront park, family friendly events, and Upper Bay Museum. 410-287-5801
◆ PerryvilleThis town was built on the shores of the Susquehanna River, near a busy ferry landing and tavern that many famous colonial travel-ers, including George Washington, frequented. By the Civil War period, Perryville gained recog-nition as a staging area for northern troops and supplies. Today visitors can catch the action at Hollywood Casino-Perryville, visit a historic site, dine, golf, or walk one of the town’s attrac-tive trails. 410-642-6066
◆ Port DepositIn the 1800s this town was an extremely busy port and banking center. Fortunes were made there in shipping and granite quarrying. Fishing was also a big industry. Today it’s a charming riverside town with wonderful architecture, a river walk, restaurants, boating, and a great fishery. Visitors can learn about Port Deposit’s endangered Map Turtles at the seasonal Tome Gas House Visitor Center. 410-378-2121
◆ Rising SunIn the 1700s five wagon train routes met at this spot as frontier travelers passed through on their way west. A cluster of log homes then, today this community boasts a unique country zoo, friendly merchants, Civil War Weekend, and street festival. The town’s fascinating his-tory includes that of Nottingham Lots which were granted by William Penn. The new town museum hosts an array of artifacts and collect-ibles. 410-658-5353
