How to Use This Accokeek, Maryland Map

This interactive map shows the street layout and satellite imagery for Accokeek, Maryland. Use the Map and Satellite buttons above to switch between street map and aerial imagery views. Use the + and − buttons to zoom in or out, or scroll your mouse wheel while holding the Control key to zoom. On a touchscreen, use a two-finger pinch gesture. Drag the map to pan to any area of Maryland or beyond.

Click ⛶ Fullscreen to expand the map to fill your screen. To return to the normal page view, press the Escape key, click the ✕ Exit Fullscreen button that appears above the map, or on a mobile device tap the back button (Android) or the close icon (iOS).

TOPO MAPS — NEW. Click the green 🔍 Search Maps button below the map to open a second map with a Base map row offering three choices. OSM is the standard OpenStreetMap street map. Topo shows the official USGS topographic maps from The National Map — contours, hydrography, land cover and shaded relief, the same mapping used for hiking, hunting and back-country navigation in the Adirondacks, the Catskills and the Finger Lakes. Imagery shows USGS aerial photography, mostly 1-metre NAIP. The search box finds any US town, county or landmark by name, so you are not limited to Accokeek.

Reading the map like a paper quad. Click Grid to overlay the U.S. National Grid (USNG), labelled along the edges exactly as a printed topographic sheet is — at normal zoom the squares are one kilometre across, so you can read a six-figure grid reference by eye and judge distance directly off the map. Click Measure, then tap two points, to get the distance between them together with the grid bearing in degrees and mils, the true bearing, and the magnetic bearing to set on a compass.

Click 📍 My position to take a single GPS reading from your device. It marks where you are and reports your position as a USNG grid reference as well as plain latitude and longitude — USNG being the format FEMA and US search and rescue teams work from — with a Copy position button so you can paste it straight into a text message. It takes one reading and stops, rather than tracking continuously, to conserve your battery. Note that map tiles need cell coverage, but a GPS reading does not — your coordinates stay correct even where the map itself cannot load.

Accokeek maintains a quiet presence upon the earthen ridges that characterize this inland portion of the landscape. It lies 2.8 miles south of Fort Washington, MD (from Fort Washington, MD: bearing 186°T), and is situated 8.8 miles south-southwest of Prince Georges. The land here slopes gently toward the banks of Mattawoman Creek, where the heavy, humid air of summer often settles into the dense canopy of trees. Deep woods define the horizon, providing a verdant buffer that separates the quiet fields from the more frantic pace of modern development. While the Appalachian Mountains remain far to the west, their distant presence is felt in the cool, crisp shifts of wind during the autumn months. Piscataway Park occupies the immediate landscape, preserving the quietude of the terrain and honoring the long, unbroken connection between the soil and those who have walked it for generations.

Agriculture and colonial stewardship formed the original bedrock of Accokeek, shaping the way the land was cleared and cultivated over the centuries. Local industry transitioned from subsistence farming to a modern economy that favors residential stability and small-scale commerce, keeping the pace of daily life deliberate and measured. The proximity to regional centers allows for a professional workforce, yet the spirit of the place remains tethered to its agrarian roots and the preservation of its natural resources. Cedarville State Forest serves as a reminder of the vast timberlands that once covered the region, offering a sanctuary for those who value the quiet persistence of the woods. Economic activity here moves with the rhythm of the seasons, echoing a time when the harvest dictated the schedule of the entire neighborhood.

Accokeek fosters a cultural character built upon a deep respect for historical preservation and the slow, steady passage of days. Residents often gather at Piscataway Park to observe the landscape, finding beauty in the way the low sun stretches shadows across the fields at dusk. The area is perhaps most famous for its association with the Accokeek Foundation, which has worked to protect the environmental integrity of the local grounds. While the surrounding region holds many stories, the landmarks here focus on the intersection of human history and the natural world, such as the quiet overlooks near the water. Life in Accokeek reflects a preference for the tangible over the ephemeral, rewarding those who take the time to look closely at the texture of the leaves or the gray light of a winter morning.
