  • Heron Point Of Chestertown Description

    Heron Point, an affiliate of Acts, is a Chestertown, MD senior community whose setting and philosophy offer stimulating opportunities for physical, mental, cultural, and spiritual well-being. A 66-acre tidewater treasure, Heron Point hugs the unspoiled shoreline of the Chester River, a tributary to the Chesapeake Bay, on Maryland's Eastern Shore. The town of Chestertown itself maintains a quaint, small-town charm with boutique shops and classic architecture. There are abundant opportunities for water-based recreation; residents can sail the Chester River westward to the Chesapeake Bay or launch smaller craft from our shores and explore the area. We know we have something special here at our senior community and assisted living environment in Chestertown, and we believe you will think so, too.
