Focus on Boating in Northern Virginia | Leesylvania State Park in Woodbridge

In the first installment of our series focusing on opportunities for boating enthusiasts in Northern Virginia, we Gateway Storage Center Boat Parkingtake a look at Leesylvania State Park located in Woodbridge, about nine miles south from Gateway Storage’s Lorton facility.

Opened in 1992, Leesylvania State Park is built upon land donated by Daniel Ludwig in the late seventies.  The park stretches out over almost 550 acres on a peninsula that borders the Potomac River, Neabsco Creek and Powell’s Creek.

Even though the park’s convenient location in southeast Prince William County is only twenty-five miles from Washington, DC, Leesylvania park is sometimes considered to be in the shadow of it’s big sister, Lake Anna.  Still, the park’s popular boat launch into the Potomac for power boats and a cartop launch for canoes and kayaks into Powell’s creek offers area boaters convenient access to the waterways.  The park also features a 300′ accessible fishing pier.

Leesylvania is open April through October during daylight hours (overnight boating and pier fishing is allowed in March and November as well). More comforts for boaters include restroom facilities with showers, a snack bar with sandwiches and ice cream, gas station, a marine store with a boat pump out station, and plenty of trailer parking.

Check out the park’s Yelp page for pictures and reviews.

Tips for Safe Boating on the Potomac River this Memorial Day Holiday

The weather is supposed to be lovely for the upcoming holiday weekend.  If

Boat Storage - Electric Available!

Boat & Trailer Storage

you’re planning to get your boat of storage for the first time and head out on the Potomac River, check out these tips from Fairfax County Fire & Rescue for safe boating and watercraft operation.  Safety patrols will be out on the river all weekend.

  • Don’t drink and boat. Boating while intoxicated is just as dangerous as drinking and driving. The “designated driver” system doesn’t work in boating. Everyone is at risk because the boat’s motion, coupled with alcohol, increases the chances of losing balance and falling overboard.
  • Everyone on the boat should wear a Coast Guard approved personal flotation device or life jacket. It’s the best protection against drowning.
  • Check the weather and water conditions before leaving the shore. If it looks like storms are brewing or the water is very choppy, wait for another day to go boating.
