If fishing is your thing, we've got the place for you.
With
six well stocked trout fishing streams nearby, fishermen should have no
trouble filling their creel limits. Blackhole Creek (on the property),
Spring Creek, South Creek, Loyalsock Creek, Lycoming Creek and Muncy Creek
are all just a short drive from the campground.
The Susquehanna River also borders the campground. Anglers will enjoy the multitude of fish species available right from the banks of the river. Small mouth bass, rock bass, walleye, pearch, channel cats, pike and, if you're lucky, even muskellunge.
