Lake Artemesia
Top 11 in Top 12 Best Lakes to Visit in Maryland
The 38-acre Lake Artemesia was created as part of the Washington Metro Green Line project. It is a good place to go fishing, although anyone over 16 must have a non-tidal fishing license.
The lake also has an accessible fishing pier, aquatic gardens, and more than two miles of paved hiking and biking trails that around the lake for activities like running, inline skating, walking, and riding. Given that the lake is surrounded by shaded trees, it's the ideal location for a stroll.
In the Lake Artemesia region, the Luther Goldman Birding Trail attracts amateur and expert bird watchers who are looking to see finches, orioles, ibis, and other birds. Join the Prince George's Audubon Society's monthly bird walks on the first and third Thursdays for a more educational "tour."
