    Several campgrounds accommodate pets in their cabin rentals, including Acacia Farms, Turkey Run State Park, and both KOA locations in Indianapolis and Crawfordsville. Reservations are typically required, especially during summer months when cabins book quickly. While Indianapolis KOA operates seasonally from March through mid-November, Sugar Creek Campground and Crawfordsville KOA maintain year-round availability.

They remodeled their restroom and shower facilities this year. They also have 3 cabins on site."

    Most cabins include beds and basic furniture but require guests to bring their own linens, pillows, and towels. Kitchen facilities vary significantly by location - some provide only outdoor fire pits with cooking grates while others include microwaves, mini-refrigerators, or full kitchens.

Walmart and other general stores are located within a short drive of most cabin sites, making it convenient to purchase groceries and camping supplies upon arrival.

      Friends O' Mine Campground & Cabins

      ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Our First RV Home Has Been Such a Blessing!

      My husband and I absolutely loved our first few months here at Friends O' Mine Campgrounds & Cabins as first-time RV owners with our Class A RV.

      We downsized from our 5-bedroom home in the Ozark Mountains of Missouri. We sold our home and I followed my Husband back here to Indiana after he received a wonderful career opportunity. My Husband is a Veteran, 🇺🇸 and after moving to Nashville, Indiana, we had immediately fallen in love with this small town - where we respected and admired the way Nashville reminds us of where we had just moved from in Missouri.

      We stayed at Grand Wood Suites for six months, after paying for a hotel, all while continuously paying for our two large storage units, as well as our mortgage payment and then rent for most of the beginning of this year; so, we decided to downsize to save money to buy land sooner, instead of continuing to rent. 🏕️ We already loved camping - we started with a pop-up camper on the 🔝 of our Jeep and camped dozens of times, then traded up to a pop-up camper. So we used what we had in savings, bought our Class A RV, donated our pop-up camper, and came to Friends O' Mine - and it was the best decision!

      From day one, the other campers have been so friendly, as are the nice employees and amazing owners. They truly make you feel like family. They set up weekly entertainment that brings the whole campground together around the campfire - there is a huge fire in the middle with six porch swings attached to a massive gazebo and veranda surrounding it. It's incredibly cozy and just inviting you to join in.

      We've enjoyed live musical singers entertaining us around the campfire all evening, and we were invited to watch a documentary about a local racecar driver in their indoor recreational room, right next to the indoor laundry facilities.

      There is also a subterranean pool that my Husband and I enjoyed swimming in almost every day during our first month here - it was very relaxing and refreshing!

      One of our favorite parts has been our peaceful, nighttime walks around the large, well-stocked catch-and-release pond. My Husband and I hold hands together and walk around it at sunset almost every evening. It's so serene and calming to hear the sounds of the water and feel the beautiful Autumn breeze.

      This has been a very relaxing, enjoyable, and heartwarming experience for us. If you are looking for a clean, friendly, peaceful, and welcoming place to stay - whether for a weekend or for a season - we cannot recommend Friends O' Mine Campgrounds & Cabins enough. We are so grateful we found it!

      Camp Atterbury Campground

      Host is great, park is nice, MWR needs help

      Great place to stay. Full hook ups, about 90 percent level sites. 33 RV sites and 3 or 4 primitive camp sites. The main bathhouse is pretty clean, included laundry, and a great host and hostess (Mark and Denise). The only bad is the price hikes here. One would think MWR would throw money towards some things...like a dog park, some leveling, lights at the kids playground, and MWR sponsored and paid for holiday parties/outings for vets, retirees, and all the active here on base. But nope, just collecting revenue without any beanies. Anyway, the host keeps it grounded.

      Cecil M Harden Lake Raccoon State Recreation Area

      Site 293, Raccoon Lake (Cecil M. Harden Lake), IN

      50A service, no water or sewer at the site. Fill your fresh tank on the way in. There’s a dump station on the property, so emptying on the way out is easy.

      Site is mostly level with partial shade. The approach is the one thing to watch: 293 isn’t angled off the road, so it’s a tighter back-in than most. We’re towing a 33’ Airstream Classic and made it first try with no issues, so bigger rigs can absolutely get in here. Just take it slow. Once parked, there’s plenty of room, and the spacing between sites is better than most state park campgrounds we’ve stayed in. Bathhouse is only a few sites down.

      Cell signal ran about 2 bars. We’re on Starlink so it didn’t matter, but plan accordingly if you work from the road.

      Park staff are the highlight. Stephanie checked us in and could not have been more accommodating. Friendly, quick, genuinely helpful.

      S and H Campground

      Would stay again

      Great staff, super helpful! Put us in their “VIP” spots on the “hill”. Access to the family fun zone including in the stay. So much for our littles to do! And totally safe and clean.

      Turkey Run State Park Campground

      Beautiful park, loved it

      Great little campground, decently spaced spots and lots of thoughtful people in a great area. Would def come back if I go through Indiana again. The lady who works in the shack quickly changed my site to one that fits my rv after pulling in and seeing it was way too small. Thanks again ma’am!

      Sugar Creek Campground and Canoe Rental LLC

      It was good for a while

      Had a great annual relationship with this campground. When we first started going they did not have their canoes and kayaks service. We had our our own so no big deal. They let us put in and take out. Then they started their livery service. They were hesitant about letting us use they put in and take out spot but since we would help with some of the chores around the campground we built a good relationship with the owners. They once said "you are the only ones we allow to do this" thought that we were sort of grandfathered in at that point. 20 years later....they must have forgotten their words and we were told since we took out our canoes at there site we were not allowed to come back ever again. You word goes a long way in my book and it evidently got forgotten or they just got mean.

    Guide to Danville

    Cabin accommodations near Danville, Indiana range from waterfront structures at Cecil M Harden Lake to more secluded options in Crawfordsville. Most rental cabins sit at elevations between 700-900 feet in this region of west-central Indiana. Weather conditions typically allow for cabin rentals from March through November, though some locations maintain year-round availability regardless of seasonal temperature fluctuations.

    What to do

    Fishing opportunities: Cecil M Harden Lake offers multiple fishing spots for cabin guests. "There is a stable and a campground store. Sugar Creek is also great for floating with inner tubes, canoes, or kayaks," notes Joel about Turkey Run State Park Campground, which is located near the lake.

    Hiking trails: Turkey Run State Park provides access to varied terrain with multiple trail options. "We hiked Trail 3, which has the ladders, and parts of trail 10, 4, and 2. Trail 10 was nothing special but was relatively flat. It was pretty crowded but people were respectful," reports Kaley A.

    Water recreation: Cabin guests can enjoy swimming, kayaking and canoeing at many locations. At Sugar Creek Campground, "The creek is awesome for catching tadpoles and minnows. And definitely take time to float or kayak down the river. The pond is stocked with GIANT fish (catch and release only)," according to Gretchen G.

    What campers like

    Privacy levels: Some cabin sites offer more seclusion than others. At Turkey Run, Samantha advises: "Get a wooded site... The open, grassy area sites don't offer any privacy. If that's what you're looking for, try to get a wooded site on the outsides that back up to woods."

    Wildlife viewing: Many cabin locations provide opportunities to observe local animals. At Raccoon Cecil M Harden Lake, one camper notes, "This place is so beautiful! We stayed in the hideaway loop and it was perfect. Lots of wildlife, so pack your food up right."

    Cleanliness standards: Bathroom and shower facilities vary significantly between locations. "Bathroom facilities are very clean, new bike, walking, rollerblading path. Beach is large and clean. We go every year and love it!" remarks Jill W. about facilities at Cecil M Harden Lake.

    What you should know

    Seasonal limitations: Not all cabin rentals operate year-round. "We stayed from Thurs thru Sunday and had a very nice time," notes Staci J. about Raccoon Lake, adding that amenities like "a beach which was nice and a building to get food" are typically available only during warmer months.

    Cabin accessibility: Some cabins require advance planning due to terrain or location. "We were in a wooded section and it was pretty private however our site was pretty sloped," reports Samantha S. about Turkey Run State Park, noting that site selection matters for level ground.

    Firewood availability: Most locations sell firewood on-site with varying costs. "Cheap and plentiful firewood. Really friendly and family owned," notes one camper about Sugar Creek Campground. At other locations, firewood bundles may cost more or burn quickly.

    Tips for camping with families

    Pool access: Some cabin locations include pool facilities for children. At S and H Campground, "There is a pool which looked clean and well maintained. It is mostly RVs. We had a tent spot along the creek," explains Jessica D., describing amenities at this family-friendly location.

    Kid-friendly activities: Several sites offer special areas for children to play. "There is a great pond for fishing, and there are lots of fish to catch! The sites are a great size, and very well maintained!" reports Alyssa M. about Sugar Creek Campground.

    Weather preparations: Cabins provide better protection during rain, but outdoor activities may be limited. "We had our van and stayed at Turkey Run for a three night weekend. The bathrooms were super clean and the showers were hot with good water pressure," shares Samantha S., highlighting the importance of clean indoor facilities.

    Tips from RVers

    Site selection: For cabin guests with additional vehicles, parking space varies. At Indianapolis KOA, "We had site 94, which was right next to the bathhouse. It had almost a whole extra campsite's worth of space next to it for my kids to run around. It also had a tree for shade and was nice and level," explains one camper about space considerations.

    Hookup access: While cabins typically include electricity, connection quality varies by location. "All sites are electric at Turkey Run. $23 per night. The campground is located in a mature tree woods, so some sites are not as level as others," notes Joel R., providing context for those who might bring additional electrical equipment.

    Cellular service: Mobile phone reception varies significantly across cabin locations. "I have AT&T service and had no problem with cell service, my husband has Verizon and his was spotty," reports Monica C. about connectivity at Turkey Run State Park, which can be important for those needing to stay connected while at their cabin.
