Georgetown pairs small-town ease with a riverfront lifestyle along the Sassafras, where quiet coves, sail masts, and broad sunsets set the daily rhythm. History lingers at the storied Kitty Knight House, a Federal-era landmark overlooking the water, while weekend plans often revolve around the marinas and shoreline. Launch a kayak or cast a line at the Sassafras Natural Resources Management Area, then wander downriver for world-class birding at Eastern Neck National Wildlife Refuge. When the day winds down, slip into dockside dining or grab a slip at Skipjack Cove Marina.
Families are served by Kent County Public Schools, with Galena Elementary, Kent County Middle, and Kent County High providing close-knit classrooms and robust extracurriculars.

County resources are anchored by Kent County, and shopping and employers across the river in Cecil County add even more options.
