Mattox Creek
- Location: Potomac River
- Lat / Lon: N 38° 12.481' / W 076° 57.913'
- Depth: 6
- Tide: 1
- Description:
Anchorage due West of Red 4 in 6-7' of water. Delightful spot, loaded with waterfowl in season, geese, ducks, swans, herons and more. Bottom is soft mud. Good holding in light to moderate wind. Entrance is fairly straight-forward following the markers. One duck blind is a hazard but is marked on the chart.
DISCLAIMER: Before committing to an anchorage, you should confirm that the location is not governed by a regulation that may conflict with your plans. An increasing number of states and municipalities are enacting laws that define where and how long you may anchor.
Holding:
Holding is soft mud. Good for lighter wind conditions
Shore Access:
Did not look to go ashore. Most shoreline appeared to be private property. Small marina further up the creek would be best shore access.
