Kirwan creek is a fairly quiet place among a few homes near the busy Kent Narrows, with traffic noise from nearby US 50/301, but not bad. The approach is less critical than it may look, and Aqua Map or Navionics will lead you in easily. Depths are as charted.
The marshes call for screens in summer, but a southerly breeze will filter in on hot nights.
It's a short dinghy ride (in a powered boat, not rowing) to all the restaurants and marinas around the Narrows bridge.
