Larksville is a borough in Luzerne County, Pennsylvania, United States.

It is 2 miles (3 km) west of Wilkes Barre on the Susquehanna River (along U.S. Route 11).

[3] Larksville was formed from a section of Plymouth Township; it was incorporated as a borough on November 10, 1909.

Once known as Blindtown, the community's name was changed to Larksville in honor of Peggy Lark, a former resident.

The borough gained prominence in the late 19th and early 20th centuries as an active anthracite coal mining community, drawing a large portion of its labor force from European immigrants.

The collieries in the borough were Boston, Loree, Lance, Woodward, and Number 4.

The northern portion of the borough mostly consists of hills, forests, and a few houses.
