Explore Chesapeake Landing, Maryland, with this interactive street and satellite map.
This page also offers TOPO MAPS — the official USGS topographic sheets — plus USGS aerial imagery, a labelled USNG grid overlay, a distance and bearing tool, and a GPS grid-reference readout. See How to Use This Map below.
This interactive map shows the street layout and satellite imagery for Chesapeake Landing, 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 Chesapeake Landing.
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.

Chesapeake Landing occupies a low-lying stretch of earth where the dark, silt-heavy waters of the Worton Channel press against the marshy perimeter of the land. It lies 1.1 miles west-southwest of Kent, MD (from Kent, MD: bearing 250°T), and is situated 6.0 miles northwest of Chestertown. Millbrook Lake sits at the center of this terrain, its surface mirroring the flat, gray expanse of a sky that seems perpetually heavy with the moisture of the Eastern Shore. To the west, the distant, hazy silhouette of Bacon Ridge provides a jagged anchor to the horizon, a contrast to the immediate, muddy fluidity of the local landscape. The air here holds the salt-tang of the distant Baynes Cove, carrying the scent of drying reeds and turning tides across the fields. Beyond the immediate banks, the geography dissolves into a quiet, saline wilderness, where the light at dusk bleeds into a bruised purple, illuminating the reeds that shiver in the constant, rhythmic pull of the coastal influence.
Chesapeake Landing retains the quiet, weathered gravity of a place built upon the extraction of the water’s bounty, where the economy has long favored the patient labor of the harvest. The proximity to Worton Park provides a buffer of protected green, a sanctuary where the land remains much as it appeared before the arrival of the first colonial surveyors. Life in Chesapeake Landing moves with the slow, deliberate cadence of the tides, far removed from the brick-and-stoop industry of the urban north. Visible across the water, Pooles Island stands as a solitary sentinel, breaking the sightline toward the open coast and marking the limit of the local reach. History here is not found in grand monuments but in the persistent, functional architecture of the docks and the seasonal migration of those who still look toward the water for their livelihood, maintaining a stoic connection to a landscape that refuses to be tamed by the century.

Search Maps opens a second, independent map. It searches OpenStreetMap for any US town, county or landmark by name; offers USGS topographic maps and USGS aerial imagery as base layers; overlays a labelled U.S. National Grid (USNG) so the map can be read like a printed topographic quad; measures distance and grid, true and magnetic bearings between any two points; and takes a single GPS fix reporting your position as a USNG grid reference and as latitude and longitude. Map tiles require cell coverage, but a GPS position does not, so the coordinates remain correct even where the map cannot load.
Location data is drawn from the USGS Geographic Names Information System (GNIS) and cross-verified against 2020 US Census records by coordinate proximity. Population figures are sourced from the 2020 US Census.
