The easement holders are helpful with advice and share their knowledge and experience. Hunting is outstanding on this property and the hunting rights are available to buyer. Fishing is unsurpassed, and the Miles River crabs are said to be the largest, heaviest crabs on the Shore. WATER DEPTH: the deepwater harbor is on Tilghman Creek. The "dock" is next to the art studio and consists of a bulkheaded and backfilled area with pilings and slips. It is believed that this area was dredged, but the current depth is uncertain. There is an electronic boat lift here. It has been suggested that the new owner should construct a pier perpendicular to the shore, thereby securing very deep water. The mooring belongs to this property Available partly furnished.
