With 14,753 wooded acres in the Southwestern section of Worcester County, between Snow Hill and Pocomoke City, the state forest is famous for its stand of loblolly pine and for its cypress swamps which border the Pocomoke River. Pocomoke means black water, and there is good fishing in these waters. The river originates in the Great Cypress Swamp in Delaware and flows southwesterly 45 miles to the Chesapeake Bay.

The park's combination of swamp and upland offers a great variety of plant and animal life, including white dogwood and pink laurel in the spring, river otters and bald eagles, and over 50 species of fish.

Peaceful secluded no-frills park
Milburn Landing Campground at Pocomoke River State Park is a very nice campground right on the waters edge of the beautiful Pocomoke River. Our Campground was right by the river, and only a short walk to a small kayak launch area.
The campground is spaciously distributed amongst a forest of Huge pine trees providing lots of shade and privacy. I took my kayak out on the Pocomoke River and thououghly enjoyed exploring the unique Bald Cypress swamp biome. Also had fun exploring the Bicycle trails. The Algonquin Trail starts at the park and offers many miles of walking or mountain biking. The Bald Cypress trail is not very bicycle friendly.
