Where to Cool Off This Summer Around Baltimore | BHHS Homesale Realty

When the sun beats down, there are few better ways to cool off than a nice swim, whether on a beach, in a pool, or at a waterpark. If you've just moved to the area and don't know where to find these things, we've got you covered. Here are our top picks for swimming spots near Baltimore homes for sale.

  • Druid Hill Park Pool - 800 Wyman Park Drive, Baltimore, MD 21211
    Druid Hill Park Pool has been helping Baltimore residents cool down since the 1920s, and it's easy to see why: It's Olympic-sized, with diving boards, sunbathing areas, and more. In addition to the pool, the park also has a lake for boating, a disc golf course, a zoo, and a farmers' market. Open daily, the pool offers free admission, but we recommend booking your reservation in advance online.

  • Cascade Lake - 2844 Snydersburg Road, Hampstead, MD 21074
    It's worth the trip to Cascade Lake for the scenery alone: the peaceful, blue waters against the green copse of trees. But it's also a great place for a swim. Located near Hampstead homes for sale, it's a natural, spring-fed lake, but the designated swimming area has been outfitted with waterslides, floating rafts, and a high-dive platform. There are also areas for fishing, picnics, and more.

  • Sandy Point State Park - 1100 E. College Parkway, Annapolis, MD 21409
    The one-mile stretch of beach at Sandy Point State Park is perfect for a day trip. Located near Annapolis homes for sale, the area overlooks Chesapeake Bay. In addition to a designated swimming area, the facility features pavilions for picnics and a marina for boating. If you go on a weekend or a holiday, you'll need to book your reservation in advance.

  • Beaver Dam Swimming Club - 10820 Beaver Dam Road, Cockeysville, MD 21030
    Whether you're an expert swimmer or just beginning, the Beaver Dam Swimming Club has something for you. For beginners, there are two pools, each no more than five feet deep. For the experts, there's the 40-foot quarry—a freshwater area that includes a rope swing. Located near Cockeysville homes for sale, day passes begin at $25 for adults and $20 for children under 12, or get a season pass and hang out all summer long. Open daily, they also have basketball and beach volleyball courts, plus a snack bar, and more!

  • Hillbilly Beach - 17910 York Road, Parkton, MD 21120
    If you're looking for a quiet, out-of-the-way swimming spot, head to Hillbilly Beach. This secluded area near Gunpowder Falls State Park is a well-kept secret that's popular among the locals near Parkton homes for sale. In addition to swimming, the area is great for hiking and exploring, boasting beautiful scenery that includes lush grass, trees, and a small bridge. The one drawback is that there are no amenities in the area, such as bathrooms and picnic tables. However, admission is free, and no reservations are required.

  • Cherry Hill Splash Park - 101 Reedbird Ave., Baltimore, MD 21225
    Cherry Hill Splash Park is part public pool, part waterpark, complete with a splash pad, waterslides, and more. Locally known as 3 Flags, the splash park is a great spot for kids and adults alike to have fun in the water. Admission is $2, or free with a Parks Department Pool Pass.

This is just a taste of what the Baltimore area has to offer, not just in the summer, but throughout the year. Contact us if you're ready to make Maryland your new home. Our real estate agents will help you find the house of your dreams, in a neighborhood you'll love.
