Parking for the Chesapeake Beach Railway Trail can be found at Chesapeake Beach Water Park on Gordon Stinnett Boulevard at the trail's northern endpoint. Additional parking can be found on the streets of the residential neighborhoods of Richfield Station and Bayview Hills.
This trail feels more like an interpretive nature trail than a rail trail. There are many signs and exhibits explaining the surrounding nature and heritage. There are also many "pullouts" and benches meant for stopping to take in the sights, sounds, and aromas. It seems a great place for a walk or an easy hike. Although the surfaces are just fine for biking (slowly), I would not recommend biking this trail (as I did) because it's too short for much of a ride, and there are too many places you'll want to stop and look around.
