Within Vincennes State Historic Site - Fort Knox, Ouabache Trails County Park operates as a wooded campground that accommodates both RVs up to 35 feet and tent campers. The Indiana State Museum and Historic Sites Corporation manages this facility, which runs from April through October and serves as a base for visitors exploring the nearby George Rogers Clark National Monument.
Sites include full hookups with electric, water, and sewer connections, though Tom B. recommends bringing extension cords for both power and water connections. Pull-through sites 23 and 24 work well for overnight stays. The campground hosts several long-term residents alongside short-term visitors, and weekend noise levels can increase. Train traffic passes nearby, typically quieting by nightfall and resuming around 6 AM.
Walking trails wind through the property, and the campground includes playground areas for families. Cell service runs weak for AT&T users. Jeremy K. notes that the "shower house was very clean," and staff communication receives consistent praise from visitors. The facility allows pets and accepts reservations.
Campers can park directly in front of the national park visitor center when touring the historic site. For those exploring the broader region, camping near Vincennes provides additional overnight options.
