About Codorus State Park

Codorus State Park is a Pennsylvania state park in southern York County, spread across roughly 3,500 acres of hilly countryside. Its centerpiece is Lake Marburg, a man-made reservoir of about 1,275 acres with a long shoreline that serves as a stopover for migrating waterfowl and shorebirds. Anglers and boaters use the lake for warmwater fishing and other water activities. Visitors also come for picnicking, swimming at the park pool, disc golf, and overnight camping. The park offers year-round education programs for school groups, organized groups, and the public, and it has an electric vehicle charging station in the upper marina parking area.
