Tuscarora Lake's public boat ramp in Barnesville, Schuylkill County offers ADA-accessible access to this scenic 96-acre lake. The launch accommodates motorboats, rowboats, canoes, and pedal boats. Twenty canoe racks are available for paddlers, and a state park mooring permit can be purchased at the park office if you need seasonal mooring (April 1–October 31). Motorboats must display current registration.

This is a popular destination for both fishing and recreational paddling. Boat rentals (rowboats, canoes, and pedal boats) are available on-site for visitors without their own equipment. A swimming beach operates seasonally from Memorial Day through Labor Day, with a maximum depth of 5.5 feet in the designated swim area. The lake is part of Tuscarora State Park, which encompasses over 1,100 acres open to hunting during designated seasons.
