OPEN TO THE PUBLIC !

Matapeake Clubhouse Cafe & Public Beach

 QAC Parks & Recreation opened a Matapeake Clubhouse and Beach on the Chesapeake Bay on Kent Island, April 26, 2009. The beach grounds include a sandy beach with fabulous views of the Bay Bridge, a clubhouse café open for lunch, an outdoor amphitheater, trails through the surrounding woods, and a family picnic area.

The beach will is accessible from the Kent Island South Trail, making it an ideal spot to walk or bike to. The renovated clubhouse is an old ferry terminal that once served passengers traveling to and from the Sandy Point terminal on the western shore. Inside this newly transformed space is a full service snack bar and ample seating for dining and relaxing. Outdoor seating is available. The café menu features hot and cold sandwiches, salads, assorted snack items and other casual fare. The Department of Parks and Recreation plans to use the venue for outdoor movie nights, concerts, evenings by the bay and other recreational opportunities for the community. Additionally, both the clubhouse and the grounds are available to rent for weddings, corporate events, family gatherings, or other private parties. For rental information and availabiltiy call 410-758-0835 ext. 2517.
