Beltzville gets a bad rap. I have lived near it fir years and never fished it. Yes, it can be tough some days but what lake can't be tough some days? There are so many big largemouth and smallmouth bass in this lake it blew my mind. And if you happen to be in the right place when the stripers start blowing up on bait it can be awesome. I fish ot with a kayak so I mainly stay in the no wake zone areas, but tge fishing in these areas us pretty good most of the time!

Beautiful place clear water amazing waterfalls trails and a beach the beach on the weekends are packed better to go during the week if possible to enjoy it without all the different people trying to play their music louder then the ones next to them. Other then the loud music and obnoxious people at the beach it was a great day and loved that the whole place is pet friendly.

About Beltzville Lake

Beltzville Lake, nestled amidst the natural beauty of Pennsylvania's Beltzville State Park, is a hidden gem for outdoor enthusiasts and nature lovers. Although the lake sometimes receives mixed reviews, it's a well-kept secret for those who enjoy a peaceful day out in nature despite occasional bustling weekends. It's renowned for its excellent fishing spots, where largemouth and smallmouth bass, as well as striped bass, abound, offering anglers both a challenge and a reward. Kayakers often enjoy the tranquil no-wake zones, providing an isolated paddling experience amongst stunning scenery. The lake is complemented by scenic trails that offer invigorating walks with mesmerizing waterfalls, making it a perfect escape for trekking aficionados. On warmer days, the sandy beach becomes a recreational hub, though it's advisable to visit during weekdays for a more subdued experience. The beach area is pet-friendly, inviting families and their four-legged friends to create memorable moments beside the pristine waters. While the influx of summer visitors can sometimes disrupt the area's serene atmosphere, those who time their visits right will find Beltzville Lake a most rewarding retreat for picnics, barbecues, and simple relaxation in a naturally splendid setting.
