Mill Creek (North)

Location: Mill Creek - Solomons
Lat / Lon: N 38° 20.146' / W 076° 26.136'
Depth: 8 feet
Description:
We anchored in 11'. The bottom was a soft mud. Many houses surround the anchorage, each with its own dock. Housing was transitional from small, older lake houses, to larger estates. Locals motoring by were friendly but didn't observe the 5 knot speed limit. The Osprey gave a show with their fish hunting ability all afternoon. Spectacular! This anchorage is well protected from the wind.
DISCLAIMER: Before committing to an anchorage, you should confirm that the location is not governed by a regulation that may conflict with your plans. An increasing number of states and municipalities are enacting laws that define where and how long you may anchor.

Very good anchorage, completely protected from the sea and very well protected from the wind. We anchor in 3 meters of water in very good mud. It is very calm, the surrounding houses are pleasant to look at and there are lots of trees. Solomon Island and the marina are 10 minutes away by dinghy. Not much to see in the village. Free dinghy dock very convenient right next to the Solomon's Island Yacht Club with bins and toilets!!!

Great spot to wait out a storm or winds. Spent 3 days waiting for wind to die down. Easy dingy ride to the many marinas. Anchor came up covered in blue mud. We had up to 30mph winds and never moved.
AGLCA harbor host lives close by and took a photo of our boat which was nice.
