Lenkerville sits along the Susquehanna River just south of Millersburg, offering front-row views of water, wildlife, and wide-open skies. Residents enjoy small-community ease with quick access to the services and employers of Harrisburg, while staying firmly rooted in the quiet rhythms of northern Dauphin County. Weekends often start on the water: the historic Millersburg Ferry makes memorable crossings in season, anglers find reliable action with guidance from the Pennsylvania Fish and Boat Commission, and birders head to the acclaimed Ned Smith Center for Nature and Art for trails, exhibits, and river overlooks. For family outings, the region’s long-running Lake Tobias Wildlife Park adds safari-style fun just a short drive away.
Schools are a point of pride. Lenkerville is served by the Millersburg Area School District, with Lenkerville Elementary known for a close-knit atmosphere, practical learning, and strong parent involvement. Youth leagues, music programs, and library events in nearby borough venues round out after-school life and make it easy to plug into the community.
Housing ranges from classic river-view homes to modest in-town dwellings, with room for gardens, workshops, and kayaks. Commuters appreciate straightforward routes, while remote workers value the serene setting—coffee on the porch, eagles overhead, and the river just down the lane.
