Oakland Access

Oakland Access is a Pennsylvania Fish & Boat Commission (PFBC) boat launch located on the Susquehanna River in Susquehanna County. The facility features a paved boat ramp and parking for 10+ vehicles, making it a convenient starting or ending point for paddlers exploring this major river system. The access is situated near local amenities including food, lodging, and other facilities in the area.

Paddlers should note that while called the "Oakland" access, the launch is located some distance upstream from the Oakland Bridge—plan for additional paddling time (approximately 1+ hour) if you intend to reach the bridge or use it as a shuttle point. The Susquehanna River at this location offers moderate water for kayaking and canoeing. This access works well as either a put-in or take-out point for multi-day river trips, given the nearby services and parking availability.
