About Saginaw
Saginaw is a small, quiet community along the banks of the Susquehanna River in York County's East Manchester Township. Established in the early 1800s, the village was originally known as New Holland and later Day’s Landing, when it served as a riverfront timber hub. The old lumber docks are long gone, and the area has settled into a calm residential pocket defined by open water, wooded shores, and low-traffic streets.
For homebuyers, Saginaw offers a relaxed setting within easy reach of everyday conveniences. Residents typically head into nearby Mount Wolf or Manchester for local shops, grocery runs, and schools, while major employment centers in York and Harrisburg are a straightforward drive via Interstate 83. It is a solid fit for anyone who wants a peaceful, out-of-the-way home base with quick access to the rest of the Susquehanna Valley.
