About

Fairfield

Fairfield, located between MD-279 (Elkton Road) and the Elk River, is a residential and waterfront Elkton neighborhood with broad river views and a marina-lined shoreline. The neighborhood’s character concentrates around the Elk River Marina entrance on Elkton Road, where boat ramps, service docks, and bait-and-tackle counters set a working-waterfront tone. Housing reads as a mix of mid-century ranchers and newer colonials on leafy streets that bend toward the water. The Elk River shoreline frames daily routines with docks, kayaks, and sunset-facing decks. Nearby, Elk River Brewing Company, the Historic Elk Landing site, and the Cecil County Arts Council add local flavor beyond the shoreline.
