Small lakeside marina with limited slips, adjacent unpaved parking area, and nearby residential buildings.
Urbanna Marina occupies a sheltered position along the waterfront in Urbanna, Virginia, within the Tidewater region of the Middle Peninsula. It fronts Urbanna Creek, a tidal tributary that joins the Rappahannock River shortly before the river’s broad estuary meets the Chesapeake Bay. The facility accommodates recreational vessels engaged in river cruising, fishing, and access to the wider Chesapeake Bay system.
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.
