Federalsburg is a rural Eastern Shore town
The historic township of Federalsburg has gone from a 19th-century trading post to a quaint rural village with various outdoor activities for locals to enjoy. Marshyhope Creek runs through the center of town and once served as a port of call for steamships hauling lumber and other goods to the Nanticoke River. Today, residents head to the creek and paddle in kayaks or fish for bass from public parks. "It's a nice little town, and it's been growing; there have been new-construction homes coming in there on some of the undeveloped lots," says Ronald Molock, a real estate agent with Long & Foster Real Estate, Inc., with 18 years of experience serving the Eastern Shore. Federalsburg is less than an hour from Salisbury for flights or work commutes, and the Delaware state line is four miles east, so residents can reach cities like Seaford in minutes for shopping and dining needs.
Federalsburg Marina and Recreation Park has a playground, picnic shelters, and a boat launch for kayaks and canoes. It's also a popular spot for locals to catch largemouth bass and blue catfish from the creek. Chambers Park often hosts youth league games on the baseball and football fields. Folks can visit the Federalsburg Museum to explore exhibits and artifacts that detail the town's long history as a trading hub on the Eastern Shore. Idylwild Natural Area is a forested wildlife management area north of town that spans 3,800 acres. There, visitors can hike along wooded trails or hunt white-tailed deer and squirrels during appropriate seasons.

The city is also home to Salisbury Regional Airport, a major Eastern Shore travel hub, and the nearest hospital is the TidalHealth Mears Campus in Delaware, 12 miles east.
