If we spend 3/4 days in this area, are there any other historic sites or quaint places to visit? We are diving from DC hand have 6 nights altogether from June 29. We like history and crab!

The museum isn’t really that great but worth a stop. The Blackwater Wildlife refuge is better, it’s mainly a bird refuge but you can drive through it. It was only like $3 or so per car and well worth it just for the one-way drive through the marshes even if there aren't too many birds. Sometimes there're a lot of birds but when we were there was hardly any, bring binoculars. They have a great visitor center and a few stops including a boardwalk over the swamp. I don't think there's too much more down there, sort of rural. Go see Annapolis for the naval academy and nice upscale shops, crabs and boats. Chestertown is historic but when I drove through there coming back it was sort of deserted.
