Fishing, hiking, swimming, and scuba diving all converge at France Park, a Cass County-managed property set within forested land near a flooded quarry lake outside Logansport. The quarry is the park's most distinctive feature: its clear water draws swimmers to a sandy beach and divers to the depths below, though scuba access is now limited to hours when the on-site dive shop is open. A waterfall along the trail network rounds out the draw for hikers.
Campers who have returned here for years describe a place that balances developed amenities with genuinely remote-feeling primitive sites. Brian E. sums it up as "tent camping, hiking, fishing, clean showers, friendly employees and a fair amount of secluded primitive sites." Sites along the fishing lake tend to fill first, and some are clustered tightly together, so arriving early on a busy weekend matters. Holiday weekends in particular draw large crowds and elevated noise levels.
The RV section has electric, water, and sewer hookups, plus WiFi, and the newer shower facilities draw consistent praise for cleanliness. The older bathrooms have received more mixed feedback over the years. One practical note: sites in the RV area use coarse gravel, which can make leveling and stabilizing a rig more difficult than typical packed-gravel pads.
Noise is worth factoring into site selection. A major highway runs near the park, and sound from the RV area carries into the surrounding campsites at night. Golf carts are common throughout the grounds. For campers who prioritize quiet, the primitive sites farther from the RV section tend to offer more separation from evening activity.
Reservations are available and recommended for summer weekends. Morels on the Wabash provides a nearby alternative for campers who find France Park full. Spring and fall visits typically mean thinner crowds and more site availability.
