Picture-perfect Sykesville is rich with history and surrounded by natural beauty. The heart of the city is its quaint, historic downtown, which is home to beautiful, historic buildings filled with boutiques, cafes, and specialty shops. Sykesville was even named one of the "Coolest Small Towns in America" by Budget Travel Magazine in 2016 -- and it lives up to its title. Just peruse the downtown shops and restaurants (start your day off with a crepe and coffee at the French Twist) and the community vibe, friendly shop owners, and colorfully-painted buildings will inspire you.
Of course, living in New England, you'll want to try crab cakes -- for those, head to Baldwin's Station, a restaurant in the former railroad station. Afterward, pick up some local cheeses and dark chocolate at Market Tavern, then stay for a craft brew at the back bar. Go boating and fishing at Piney Run Park and Nature Center, or shop the Sykesville Farmers' Market on Main Street every Sunday.
The northwestern edge of Patapsco Valley State Park borders Sykesville and follows the Patapsco River for 32 miles. This vast park covers more than 16,000 acres and is ideal for hiking, canoeing, horseback riding, fishing, mountain biking, and camping.

School data provided by
GreatSchools
The GreatSchools Rating helps parents compare schools within a state based on a variety of school quality indicators and provides a helpful picture of how effectively each school serves all of its students. Ratings are on a scale of 1 (below average) to 10 (above average) and can include test scores, college readiness, academic progress, advanced courses, equity, discipline and attendance data. We also advise parents to visit schools, consider other information on school performance and programs, and consider family needs as part of the school selection process.
