vacation ideas for Susquehanna River/Havre de Grace area

[Ronda93]

I'm considering a trip to Havre de Grace for the LPGA Championship this summer. What are some attractions DISers recommend in that area?

Hotel/B&B recommendations welcome, too.

Thanks,
Ronda

We live about ten mins. away from Bulle Rock! You might want to check out www.harfordmd.com It will give you some ideas about the area. If the Ironbirds are in town you could always attend a game. They are the minor leauge team of Cal Ripken Jr. We have season tickets and always have a blast. There is also the promande in Havre De Grace. It is a walkway right on the shore of the Sus. river. It ends at Concord Lighthouse, one of the oldest lighthouse in use on the east coast. There is also a decoy musuem near the promanade. There are many historic sites, as well as some really nice winerys near by too. As far as lodging, I would choose either the Country Inn and Suite or the Wingate inn. Both off them are fairly new as compared to some of the other hotels. A great place to try and eat is the Tidewater Grille in HAvre De Grace. It sits right on the Sus. river and the view is wonderful. The food is great too! Take a look at the website. If you have any questions feel free to send me a PM!

It's also not far from the inner harbor that has a lot to do as well.

I never in my wildest dreams would have thought that I would see a question about Aberdeen and HdG on this website!

My fondest childhood memories are of swimming and fishing in Bush River and eating crabs at Gablers! Lost my favorite fishing rod to an eel I caught under the bridge. I was devistated and never fished again. I was about 10

On to the topic at hand, I would head into Baltimore if you have the time and go to the Harbor, Aquarium, Science Center, and lots of great places to eat.
If you are a baseball fan go to an Orioles game.
