Cruising Kent County Recreation

Nearing the mouth of the Sassafras River on the southern Kent County side, you'll find Turner's Creek opposite Ordinary Point. Here stands the only remaining 18th century granary in this part of Chesapeake Country. The wooden structure is on an old wharf once important to local farmer's for sending grain and produce to Baltimore but it now serves recreational and fishing interests. Up the hill is a park area with nature trails, a historic tree plantation, and ongoing conservation demonstration areas.
