Description

Natural Resources Conservation Service

A part of the Brookville Lake -Whitewater Memorial State Park Complex, Brookville Reservoir lies in the historic east fork of the Whitewater River Valley. Brookville Lake camping is possible at two State Recreation Areas: Mounds SRA (not to be confused with Mounds State Park in Anderson) and Quakertown SRA.

The lake property has more than 25 miles of hiking trails, boating opportunities, and nationally known recreational and sport fishing. Two beaches and more than 400 campsites make this an ideal family vacation spot.

The area was purchased by the federal government for flood control and to provide a place for wildlife and recreation. More than 11,000 acres provide a variety of habitats for plants and wildlife. Brookville is one of the few sites in Indiana where walleye grow big enough for fisheries biologists to milk the females for eggs to supply walleye fry to many lakes in Indiana.

Large park with a great beach.

Very large park with a lot of amenities. Some spots are slanted quite a bit and are not good for 5th wheels.

Nice, clean campground with lots to do

This is the second year we have been there.  Very cute town of Brookville for shopping and or rafting on the nearby river.  Campground very clean w/ lots of bath/shower locations.  Lots of electric site - only negative was there were very few full hook up sites so need to reserve those early.  Brookville lake nearby for boating (rentals), large beach area.  Decent hiking but not the best.

Overall I'd give it an 8 out of 10.

Great campground !

My family and I camped there last weekend. It was the perfect weekend. The campground was clean and everyone was very friendly. We visited the beach, and my kids had a blast! Overall, it was a beautiful place. I already booked two more weekends for the summer.

Great Lake Life Camping

This is a clean and well maintained camp ground. If you are looking to get close to the lake life this is a great spot for it. You will find many campers are here to enjoy the lake with their watercraft or at the big sandy beach for swimming and paddle boarding.
