    Pocomoke River State Park

    Leashed dogs are welcome at Pocomoke River State Park in Pocomoke City, MD. Located within 15,000 acres of woodland at Pocomoke State Forest, this is a great spot to take Fido to get away from it all. The forest is made up of loblolly pine and cypress swamps, spread out over two sections: Milburn Landing and Shad Landing, where pets are allowed in the day-use areas and specified camping loops. Enjoy a number of multi-use trails, ideal for taking your pooch on a walk. Visit Website

    Or call (410) 632-2566 or email pocomoke.statepark@maryland.gov for more information.

      Lovely park and boat ramp

      (This review is for the Shad Landing portion of the park.) The park is not especially large but is very scenic, with a nice boat ramp along the Pocomoke River where you can launch your own boat or rent a canoe. The boat ramp counts as part of the park's day use areas, but you can have your dog there long enough to get onto and off of your boat as long as you don't linger. Dogs are also allowed in the campground and along the trails. The trail I used there was very short (maybe a mile), but it was beautiful - thickly forested, swampy in areas, with patches of wild rhododendrons that felt like the setting from a fairy tale. The world felt very far away! My dog and I really enjoyed walking there, especially one particularly drizzly spring day with the rain dripping off the trees. Be prepared for muddy feet though - there are some low spots along the trail that can get soggy.
