Indian Head Campground

Indian Head Campground, near Bloomsburg, Pennsylvania, is a laid-back spot that offers a mix of relaxation and outdoor fun. With spacious tent and RV sites, it’s a solid choice for those looking to unwind and enjoy nature without the frills.

The campground is right by the river, making it a great place for fishing, kayaking, or tubing. Visitors have mentioned that the tent spaces are nicely spaced out, providing a bit of privacy, and the clean bathrooms with hot water are a nice touch after a day of activities. One camper noted, “This place is for those that really just want to rest and appreciate the quietness.”

While the campground has a rustic charm, it’s worth noting that some areas could use a little sprucing up. There are a few older trailers around, but the owners are friendly and accommodating, which adds to the welcoming vibe. Plus, you’re just a short drive from Knoebels Amusement Resort, perfect for a day of family fun.

If you’re looking for a peaceful weekend getaway where you can kick back and enjoy the outdoors, Indian Head Campground is a solid pick. Just remember to bring your sense of adventure and maybe a fishing pole!

Description

Location... Located on approximately 35 acres at the confluence of Fishing Creek, and the Susquehanna River, Indian Head Campground offers grass covered, tree shaded sites for both RV's and tents, or more open sites if you prefer no trees. Tent sites are normally situated under trees, on grass, and have a table and fire ring. Water is close by, and our most popular tenting area is across from the restroom and shower building. The small pavilion is located there for tenters to use. There are more isolated tent sites near our boat ramp, and others may be found at various places around the campground. A very nice large, somewhat isolated and spacious area for group tent camping is available upon request. Camping Sites... Our RV sites have a table and fire ring, 30 amp electric hookup, along with water. The RV unit will park on a gravel base, and is surrounded with grass and trees. We have a more open area that is popular with camping clubs. It has 30 amp electric and water, but no individual table or fire ring. A covered large pavilion is conveniently close by with a fireplace, tables, electric lights, and water for clubs to gather for meetings and meals. The River... Our concrete boat launch at the mouth of Fishing Creek, places your boat just a lures throw from the Susquehanna River, an American treasure that originates in Cooperstown, New York, and empties into the Chesapeake Bay at Havre de Grace, Maryland. An ambitious plan is underway to map the river for boat or canoe trips with access points, boat launches, camping, historic points, hazards, waypoints, and other things of interest for a boating day trip, or more ambitious trips that you may wish to plan. Maps and guides will soon be available for purchase. Also underway is a project to utilize abandoned railroad lines, along with some private property, and create bicycling and hiking paths, allowing easy access from the campground onto the path. Campground Store... We have a well stocked camp store that contains souvenirs, RV supplies, some limited food items that you may have forgotten, and some ice cream. We sell firewood for your campfires, and we have WiFi available for a charge.

Overall has great potential.

Campground it a little outdated. The back seasonal area has some sketchy looking campers that look abandoned. The locals using the pavilion stayed up making noise way past the 10 pm quiet time. The owners are still relatively new and making visible improvements and were very nice. The layout of the sites was odd and mostly not marked off very well and looked like a free for all in some areas.

False advertising

We booked this campground because it was waterfront camping. Upon arriving to the site, we saw that it was not in fact waterfront camping. When we talked to the office, they just told us to take the other side, which also was not waterfront like advertised. Luckily, before we decided to check that side out, the owners son told her that someone else was coming to that section, “which they were also confused as to why the camping wasn’t waterfront”. The water that was accessible was a small launch area where other people in the campground hung out at most of the time. The map of the campground they gave us was completely different than the one online. The sites weren’t marked either.

Peaceful weekend

This place is for those seeking to be at peace for the weekend. Tent spaces are nicely spaced apart. Some have shade and some do not. I did not see a pool, but the river is nice. You can choose to fish, kayak, or go tubbing. There is a park for kids. Check in was fast and the young man at the office was very pleasant and he knew his stuff. If you seek some place fully updated, this is not it. This place is for those that really just want to rest and appreciate the quietness. Bathroom is clean and the hot water is great.

Indian Head

Nice little campground. The pull through site was grass/gravel and level. It was a little muddy due to several days of rain before we arrived. The sites were all FHU . There seem to be many semi- permanent residents but plenty of room for transients like us passing through. Off season rates were a little high but good for what we wanted. Rather quiet within easy access to I-80. SUGGESTION: some GPS (like mine) might take you off the beaten track to get here !

Nice place, lacks management

In theory, this is a nice place to stay. However, a large and noisy group of young people did not obey the 10p quiet time and there is no management enforcing rules.

Nice location, nice couple

Good location, right on the river. The campground overall is very pretty. A few old, junk trailers around the property need to be hauled off. But the sites are level, grassy, water, sewer and electricity. There are a lot of seasonal and full timers. The bathrooms are “old” but were clean. The couple that own/run the site are amazing, very nice and super accommodating. They quite frankly make the campground.

Nothing fancy

A lot of old campers and other stuff at entrance of campground. Full hook ups, large pull through spots but no trees. Full timers are in tree line. Have to pay for WiFi.

Nice campground

This is a nice campground very laid-back. Not much to do at the campground but it is 20 minutes away from Knoebles. The fees are fairly cheap. Every time I have gone there I had a good time and I have gone here every summer for the last 20 years.
