Originally opened as a family campground owned and operated by Denis and Kay Snyder in 1964. Bald Eagle Campsite has been owned and operated by the Snyder family to this day! Come join us in the beautiful forested landscape of Central Pennsylvania. Located a mere 20 miles south of Penn State University, we are surrounded by the many amenities Central PA has to offer. We are welcoming to LGBTQ+ campers as well as all ethnicities. Pitch a tent on a quiet site and drop a line into one of our two trout streams crossing the campground. Hang a hammock between two towering poplar trees surrounded by flowering rhododendron. Or pull up in your camper and relax before and after a Penn State Football game under the blue and white sky. We have small, secluded sites to get away from it all, as well as conjoined sites to accommodate larger groups. On property we have bathrooms, hot showers, and a recreation hall with free ping pong, board games, and billiards. For a fee, we also have firewood, electricity, and a large event tent for rent. Campers must be less than 25 feet. Generators are not allowed. Music should not reach outside your own site after 9pm. There are no water hookups. Vehicle noise is audible from route 350, especially on Friday afternoons. Noise is diminished at sites further back from route 350. Our sites are wheelchair accessible, but the bathrooms and showers do have one step up into them. Walk to Snappy's 24-hour convenience store to use their free Wi-Fi, buy bags of ice, or to pickup snacks and a sub in the attached Snappy's Grille. An ice cream stand and restaurant are within walking distance. We require a minimum two nights stay for the recognized holiday weekends for Memorial Day, Independence Day, and Labor Day.

Site 6 (No Trailers)

Truly Amazing & Reasonable

We had an absolute amazing time at this site. Campfires, Walking, Fishing & Camping was the pastime of this adventure and hopefully a future one as well. Our host was the most reasonable, kind, caring and respectful person we have had at any campsite b far. I would rate this campsite a 10/10. Will definitely be spreading the word into next year about this place. :)

Site 27 - Bald Eagle Campsite

Never to camp here

Other than the place having things to do. I was never met upon arrival. Then the day off pack up I'm told that renovations are going to be done. But yet there was people still at sites on the property camping. And people showing up to camp. Only spoke with the host once the whole time I was there and that was in passing of the bathroom.

Site 9 (No Trailers)

Perfect site for a fishing trip

I wanted to plan a fishing trip to central PA and let me tell you I couldn’t have chose a better campsite. Not only was the site spacious but the host was very accommodating when we looked to add another person mid way through the trip. The site was spacious with clean and convenient accommodations, sites were also spaced to allow for a good degree of privacy . The convenient store near by was within east walking distance and came in handy when picking up things we forgot. I’d highly recommend anyone looking for a nice campsite In the area to chose here.
