Description
Welcome to a rare opportunity to own 137 acres of pristine waterfront property on Smith Island, Maryland. This secluded piece of paradise offers a unique combination of marshlands, high ground, sandy beaches, and roughly 1.36 miles of waterfront footage, making it a premier destination for outdoor enthusiasts, waterfowl hunters, and nature lovers alike. Surrounded by the Chesapeake Bay’s rich estuarine environment, this property provides exceptional hunting opportunities, with an abundance of scoters, long-tailed ducks, bluebills, mallards, black ducks, buffleheads, and geese frequently seen throughout the area. Whether you’re setting up blinds along the marsh or exploring the creeks and open waters, this is a true sportsman’s retreat. Beyond hunting, the property is a fisherman’s dream, offering excellent opportunities for striped bass, trout, red drum, white perch, and various other species of fish in the surrounding waters. Along the sandy beaches, you’ll find mussels and oysters in abundance, making for a unique and rewarding experience as you gather fresh shellfish straight from the shoreline. The land itself is both wild and scenic, featuring untouched marshlands ideal for birdwatching and conservation, along with high-ground areas that could serve as a secluded retreat or campsite. The newly constructed stone barrier walls, part of the Rhodes Point Navigation Improvement Project, provide additional protection against erosion while enhancing access to the property and preserving its valuable shoreline. The island is reachable by private boat or the Smith Island Ferry from Crisfield, where you’ll find a charming, tight-knit island community known for its famous Smith Island Cake, fresh seafood, and rich maritime heritage. The island is deeply connected to the crabbing and oyster industries, with local watermen harvesting some of the finest blue crabs and oysters in the Chesapeake Bay. Visitors can experience the daily rhythms of this traditional way of life, whether by chatting with local watermen, enjoying fresh seafood at a waterfront eatery, or even taking part in crabbing excursions. The Smith Island Cultural Center is also a great way to immerse yourself in the island's history and tradition. For those looking to extend their stay, Smith Island offers cozy rental homes and bed-and-breakfasts, many of which provide modern comforts while preserving the island’s historic charm. Whether you’re seeking a peaceful getaway or an immersive outdoor experience, Smith Island provides the perfect backdrop for unparalleled recreation, hunting, and waterfront living.
