Chapel Point State Park is an undeveloped Maryland state park located on the Port Tobacco River, a tributary of the Potomac, in Charles County.[1] The park offers fishing and hunting. In the early 20th century, Chapel Point had an amusement park[2] with facilities for roller skating and social functions and played host to the first Charles County Fair.[3]

Adjacent to the park, St. Ignatius Church and cemetery, the oldest continuous Roman Catholic parish in the United States, offers a scenic river view.
