Medium-sized marina with multiple parallel docks along a lake shoreline, ample unpaved surface parking adjacent to the water, surrounded by wooded areas and a nearby road.
Rick's Campground & Marina is nestled in Newberry Township, Pennsylvania, along the banks of the Susquehanna River, a major inland waterway in the southeastern part of the state, surrounded by rolling hills and rural landscapes typical of York County. This marina caters to recreational boating and sailing on the freshwater Susquehanna, which offers opportunities for river cruising and exploration of its scenic, historic corridors. It serves boaters navigating this inland river system, known for its connection to broader Pennsylvania waterways.
Marinas typically need to separate slip holder parking from day-visitor parking, trailer areas, launch ramps, and secure dock access points. Modern facilities use barrier gate systems to enforce these zones automatically — allowing permitted vehicles through via transponder or keycard while logging all access events.
