Donna Jo Camping and Recreation Area - PERMANENTLY CLOSED

SUMMARY PRESENTED BYT-Mobile

Donna Jo Camping and Recreation Area sits in Kouts, in northwestern Indiana's Porter County, and has historically drawn campers who couldn't secure a spot closer to the Indiana Dunes. The campground runs May through November, with full hookups for RVs up to 50 feet, a dump station, showers, and clean bathrooms. Sites are spaced well apart, though vegetation between them is minimal. A pond on the property provides decent sightlines for stargazing after dark. Cell service is a known variable here. Lake O' The Woods Club is another option to the north for campers weighing alternatives.

Not bad, not great

I’d give it 3.5 stars if that were an option. The old folks who run the place are great. We ended up camping here when we tried to take a last minute trip to the dunes but found everything was booked. They have a decent spot for stargazing down by the pond. The sites are nice and far apart but there isn’t much vegetation between them. Each site had a standard picnic table and fire pit, the bathrooms were clean and serviceable.It felt more suited to RVs than tents but wasn’t an RV parking lot like some places are.
