Scouting Report – Three quarters of a mile further up Wye East from Dividing Creek is the entrance to Granary Creek. Stay center channel for nine feet of water mlw, going down to about 7 feet mlw at the anchorage icon. The best protection is in the upper half of the creek. Excellent wind, wave, and wake protection. No current. There is reported good holding in mud. Cellular reception is poor (1 bar). There is very good shore access at the kayak launch at the head of the creek with stairs going up the bank to a manicured park area with several trails to exercise both dog and owner. Wye Island is a Maryland Natural Resource Management Area. (https://dnr.maryland.gov/publiclands/Pages/eastern/wyeisland.aspx) There is no shopping in the area.

Anchored in the first open cove to the right as you enter the creek and we had that little cove to ourselves. 6 boats rafted up farther up the creek so plenty of room. 2 catamarans anchored up the creek past the rafters. Well protected from wakes / wind although the creek would be open to winds coming from the Southwest. There are some undeveloped access ramps to Wye Island on the west side of the creek - gravel / grass landings. We paddled there to let our dog do her business and walked around beautiful Wye Island.
