Pretty setting with easy in/out of the Chesapeake Bay. We anchored south of the marker and south in the cove but in the 10 ft section. Holding was excellent. Great wind protection from southerlies, but there is a definite side roll from the Bay. It's noticeable whether the Bay is calm or whitecapping. But not unpleasant. More like a baby being rocked to sleep. No place to land dinghy in Prentice noted. All private homes. Hughlett Point Natural Area Preserve is across Dividing Creek with a beach.

Small, calm cove surrounded by some homes. One owner politely questioned our presence. Shallow with 4 ft or less in spots. Go in further than anchorage map shows or you will be blocking access to private docks. No cell service or shore access.
