Susquehannock Campground - U.S. Army Corp of Engineers

Heather Hell-oh

We have been coming here for a decade and have camped our way around the waterfront, from the cliffside to the point. This was our last visit to Susquehannock and we have canceled our camping plans there in August. As usual, we paid extra for waterfront sites (61/62) with expectations suited for our visit (shady trees, disabled access, privacy). The sites have been completely renovated, with level tables, better water access, and new fire rings. The sites are on top of each other, they took out a lot of trees, and the rings for 62 and 63 are very close together. There was an extended family w/kids and a dog on our site when we arrived. They moved their brood to the adjacent vacant sites (64/65) and continued to swim and play at 61/62. Then a fam of 4 cut through right next to our camp to the lake. Regrettably, I initiated words. The man told me to read the rules. He was right, there is waterfront access for all now per the rules. It seems we live in a world now where some people just cut through other peoples' campsites. The larger family returned the second night to swim in front us and disregarded any privacy we hoped for on vacation. The rules state that anyone has the right to waterfront access. I think a public waterfront area is warranted for all the campers. But I don't agree with the delivery of the changes. No privacy, no trees as a buffer, and anyone from the campground can drive their 2 cars full of family (then one car back to shuttle a third set of ppl) to hang out in, and boaters from interior sites revving engines on what I had hoped and expected was a nice quiet getaway. We haven't been able to get a site in Susquehannock since the pandemic — one reason I was unaware of the changes to the site. But I missed any messaging they might have released regarding changes to the sites and the rules. It now feels like they put in more sites with the promise of water access while removing any semblance of the way it was, the privacy and the ambiance.

Decent campground but the sites are way too close.

Some great cliffs for jumping off if you swim out to the island on the right side (if your facing the direction your going when you entered the campground. And the campsites look pretty decent too
