This spring is just off of MD-488. The coordinates will take you right to where the spring is located. Folks are often parked on the side of the road filling up their containers. There’s a pallet to stand on over the stream, and it comes out of an orange-colored pipe with a steady flow. The water is clear and tastes great too!
