Glen Cove Marina Boat Launch
About
Glen Cove Marina Boat Launch is a boat launch in Maryland, about 2 miles from the town of Darlington. It's a simple put-in point for getting a boat onto the water in this corner of the state. For comfortable weather, late spring and early fall work well. At a nearby weather station at Conowingo Dam, typical averages run to highs around 74°F in May and 79°F in September, while July averages a high near 88°F. The Susquehanna River is about 2 miles away, and hikers can reach Deer Creek Trail (Green) and Farm Road Trail (Blue) at around 4 miles. For something different, Triple Splitter Boulder offers climbing a little under 6 miles off.
