About Nancy'S Boat To Shore Campground (Pa)

Nancy’s Boat-to-Shore Campground offers a secluded, primitive camping experience at Raystown Lake,**accessible ONLY by boat (absolutely NO motor vehicle access).** Located on Raystown’s western shoreline in the main channel between mile markers 15 and 16, Nancy’s provides a peaceful getaway from the busier developed areas of the lake. The campground is approximately a **20-minute motorboat ride or a 1.5- to 2.5-hour paddle** from the James Creek and Aitch Boat Launch areas. With **50 designated tent-only campsites**, Nancy’s offers a mix of open, grassy sites to shaded, wooded sites, all within easy access to the waterfront. Each site includes a picnic table and fire ring with a grill. Excellent fishing, abundant wildlife, and direct access to the lake by boat make Nancy’s an ideal destination for campers looking to **disconnect, explore, and enjoy a more remote Raystown Lake…
