Greenwell State Park, State park on Patuxent River in St. Mary's County, United States
Greenwell State Park extends across 596 acres of natural land, featuring forests, wetlands, and two miles of waterfront along the Patuxent River.
The park originated in 1971 when John Phillip Greenwell Jr. and his sister Mary Wallace Greenwell donated their 167-acre family farm to Maryland state.
The park maintains the historic Bond-Simms tobacco barns complex and Rosedale Manor House, reflecting the agricultural heritage of Southern Maryland.
Visitors can access ten miles of trails, a 50-foot fishing pier, kayak launch sites, and designated picnic areas with tables throughout the grounds.
The Greenwell Foundation operates specialized programs within the park, including therapeutic horseback riding and activities for people with disabilities.
