Facility Overview
Located at 197 Lighthouse Rd in Pennsville, NJ, this facility serves as an essential open-air surface parking lot for visitors navigating the Delaware River waterfront region. The lot features a flat, paved layout, providing easy ingress and egress for all vehicle types. Due to its open-air design, there are no vertical clearance restrictions, making it an excellent choice for full-size pickup trucks, SUVs, and high-roof passenger vans that would typically struggle in traditional multi-level parking garages.

Visitor & Driver Tips
For the best experience, we recommend arriving at least 30 minutes before your scheduled event or appointment to ensure your choice of stall. Always keep your license plate number handy if using mobile payment apps, as most systems require this for digital validation. If you are traveling in a specialized or extra-wide vehicle, aim for the central rows of the lot where maneuverability is highest. Ensure you check for any posted local event signage that may impact traffic flow on Lighthouse Rd during holiday weekends or festival days.
