Lake Redman

Lake Redman is located in Springfield Township and York Township and has several access locations.

For shore fishing and other hiking trails, go north on Main Street through JACOBUS BOROUGH and continue to follow the Susquehanna Trail north to the bottom of the hill, where you will see a parking area on the left-hand side and a dam breast on the right.
More shore fishing and picnic tables are available by continuing east on Church Street, going under the I-83 overpass until you reach the bottom of the next hill. Access to parking areas is available on both the left and right sides of Church Street.

Lake Williams

Turn west onto Water Street from N. Main Street, JACOBUS BOROUGH, and follow Water Street until you see the park access road with a yellow gate on the right-hand side. Lake Williams offers boat access, picnic tables, and shore fishing.
Both parks are managed by the County of York. Reservations for the picnic pavilions at Lake Redman may be made by calling York County Parks and Recreation at (717) 840-7440.
