Susquehanna State Forest Clear Creek Road Dispersed Area

Dispersed Camping

Clear Creek Road winds through dense hardwood forest in the heart of Susquehanna State Forest, offering primitive camping along its 12-mile length. Sites are informal pull-offs near Clear Creek and its tributaries, most accommodating 1-2 vehicles under heavy canopy. Expect true forest quiet except during hunting seasons. Stream water available but requires treatment.

Access from Route 144 near Renovo — the road can be rough after heavy rains but passable by most vehicles. Popular with hunters in fall, nearly empty otherwise. No facilities, no cell service beyond the first few miles. Some spots flood during spring snowmelt, so scout before setting up camp.
