Chapel Point State Park is an undeveloped public recreation area located on the Port Tobacco River, a tributary of the Potomac, in Charles County, Maryland. The state park offers fishing and hunting. Adjacent to the park, St. Ignatius Church and cemetery, the oldest continuous Roman Catholic parish in the United States, offers a scenic river view.

History

In the early 20th century, Chapel Point had an amusement park[5] with facilities for roller skating and social functions and played host to the first Charles County Fair.[6] The property, which had been Jesuit land since it was patented in 1638, was acquired from the Corporation of Roman Catholic Clergymen by the Maryland Department of Natural Resources in 1972.[7]
