For those who enjoy water activities, the Clyde Watson Fishing and Boating Pier is just a short ride away, offering opportunities to fish for white perch, croaker, channel and blue catfish, or even try Maryland blue crab depending on the season.
Universal Preserve is perfect for campers seeking a quiet, open-air getaway — whether you’re spreading out under the sky in a tent, parking your RV for a simple overnight, or fishing nearby. It’s a place to relax, enjoy nature, and leave the bustle behind.
