The Pamunkey River is a large river system spanning 92.29 miles with a drainage area of 1,471 square miles.

The access point is located approximately 156 miles upstream from the river mouth, placing it in the middle tidal portion of the Pamunkey River system.

Paddlers and boaters using Lestor Manor should expect slow to moderate current conditions typical of a large river with a 7th order stream classification. The average water velocity of 2.14 feet per second indicates manageable conditions for kayaks and canoes, though motorboat users should be prepared for typical river navigation.
