sights are set on days full of quality food, fun, and
connection. Take a morning walk through historic
gardens, spend an afternoon antiquing, and embark
on a sunset cruise. There’s plenty to do all over the
county, whether you want to stick close to where
you’re staying or get out and see all the sights.

Satisfy your need for speed with a visit to the flight line at the
Patuxent River Naval Air Museum, which features 25 oneof-a-kind Navy and Marine Corps aircraft, including a Blue
Angel! Fuel up with a meal and afternoon coffee at Blue Wind
Gourmet and shop locally made olive oils, chocolates, and
spirits to bring home as souvenirs.
Hollywood
Take in river views and a stunning Colonial Revival
garden during a self-guided tour of Historic Sotterley,
an 18th-century estate. Settle into the rocking chairs on
the front porch with glasses of your favorite spirits at
Tobacco Barn Distillery. Fun fact: the corn used in your
drinks comes straight from the fields around you!

Extraordinary experiences await at the Nancy R. and Norton T.
Dodge Performing Arts Center, which hosts regional, national,
and international shows. Past performances include the
COSMIC Symphony Orchestra, Alan Doyle, and Angélique Kidjo.
