7 campgrounds with availability this weekend
Indianapolis KOA welcomes pets at its Greenfield location with several pet-friendly accommodation options including tent sites, RV spots, cabins, and glamping facilities. The campground features designated dog exercise areas throughout the property where pets can play off-leash. S and H Campground also accommodates pets in their tent sites, RV spaces, and cabins, with 450 total sites available. Both campgrounds maintain standard leash policies outside designated pet areas, requiring owners to clean up after their animals. Campers note the staff at Indianapolis KOA deliver firewood directly to campsites for $7 per bundle, allowing visitors to enjoy campfires with their pets nearby.
Mounds State Park Campground provides pet-friendly tent and RV sites year-round with electric hookups, allowing campers with dogs to enjoy extended stays during any season. Heartland Resort and Yogi Bear's Jellystone Park accept pets at their facilities, though reviews indicate Heartland's sites can be muddy after rainfall. The main challenge at S and H Campground involves dust from unpaved roads affecting campsites, particularly during busy holiday weekends. Most campgrounds near Greenfield maintain clean facilities, though bathroom quality varies between locations. For overnight travelers, it's important to note that despite some online information, the Greenfield Eastbound Rest Area explicitly prohibits overnight parking and camping according to posted signage.

ScoutMark & Denise are great camp hosts they care about everyone and will help them if they need it. They do so much for the holidays and have some great times together around the campfires. Will miss them this winter but will be thinking of them during the Army Navy game. (A inside joke lol).
TravelerThis is a nice little campground. There is a lot of space between campers, and the spots are asphalt and somewhat level. It didn’t feel crowded at all. There are plenty of good hiking trails around and it’s fun to go look at the dam. Highly recommend going to the overlook at sunset!
Guide⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ 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!
Scoutwe arrived during a halloween kids party. the hostess was super nice. the women’s showers and wash rooms clean. the men’s shower was sport locker style.
ScoutClean paved sites, rigs under 35 feet will fit. Water and electricity 50/30 (water is in the ground.
LegendWe stayed for the weekend during a Campout event. Lots of fun seeing all of our camping buddies. I don’t think we would camp here otherwise as it isn’t really our type of camping. Sites are close together, so don’t expect privacy. Porta potties had not been serviced from their previous event… needless to say, it was foul. The country music museum was pretty cool. The guide was very knowledgeable!
ScoutBeautiful, great amenities too. Right off highway to travel anywhere
GuideGreat 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.
ScoutThe staff here is very friendly, helpful, and accommodating. Each site has water hookups as well as a firepit, electric and sewage. There is a laundry room with a small library, bath house, and a nice short trail, with a game of horseshoes. Unfortunately no more swimming or kayaking in the lake but there are other parks in the area to do so. Very peaceful back in the woods, would definitely stay here again!
Greenfield, Indiana camping options sit at an elevation of around 900 feet in the central Indiana plains, with seasonal temperatures ranging from 20°F in winter to over 85°F in summer. The area features multiple waterways including the White River and several lakes that support fishing and water recreation activities. Most campgrounds remain open from April through October, with limited winter availability at select locations.
Fishing at Summit Lake: Summit Lake State Park Campground offers year-round electric sites with fishing access to a 2.5-mile long lake. "Lots of trees. The showers were your typical camp showers not great but not horrible. There was a large lake that one could enjoy fishing on. Also some great hiking trails in the area," notes Lisa M. about the park's amenities.
Outdoor recreation at White River: White River Campground provides access to hiking and biking trails along with river activities. According to David R., "This is a great campsite attached to a wonderful park with great trails." The campground features boat launching facilities on the White River and connects to nearby trail systems.
History exploration: Mounds State Park showcases ancient Native American earthworks with interpretive trails. "Mounds State Park just struck me as a perfect spot to field trip to if you homeschool your children. Located in Chesterfield, IN the park is small but has a lot of historical, geographical and natural information to be had," writes Shelly S.
Spacious sites: Indianapolis KOA receives praise for its generous campsite layout. One camper noted, "We tented for two nights here. The lot was spacious but had a big hill, which made sitting in chairs around a camp fire interesting." The campground maintains well-spaced sites even during busy periods.
Family amenities: Yogi Bear's Jellystone Park offers extensive recreational facilities for families. According to Tiana K., "Wide pull through spots with fire pits, picnic tables and plenty of grass. Tons to do with the kids, organized activities are well done. Staff stays on top of everything and is super helpful. You can rent pedal bikes, pedal boats, store is well stocked."
Clean facilities: Campers consistently mention the cleanliness of facilities at Mounds State Park Campground. According to Jacob A., "This was our second trip to the campground and first trip with a camper. Nice small park, overall things were quiet. There is a railroad track nearby, but the noise is not bothersome. I love the trails and the mounds."
Site conditions after rain: Heartland Resort can have drainage issues during wet weather. Gary B. reported, "The power and water pressure was just fine. The campsite was muddy and needed maintenance. Let's just say it was 'Rustic'. Office staff were very polite."
Road noise: Some campgrounds experience highway noise due to proximity to major roads. According to David C. regarding Mystic Waters Campground, "This is a great campground for RVs and cabins, but unfortunately not for tents as the highway 69 is too noisy. Also there are not a lot of trees."
Bathroom facilities vary: S and H Campground bathrooms receive mixed reviews. Jessica D. observed, "The only thing we didn't like was the bathroom conditions. The floor tiles were breaking off and there was certainly a mold issue. We went on a 22 day cross country road trip and this was the only shower I didn't shower in."
Water features for kids: S and H Campground offers multiple water and play areas. Nick W. shares, "Very nice campground. They have a little section full of carnival like rides. Several playgrounds! Campground big and spacious, highly recommend."
Dog friendly options: Several campgrounds near Greenfield welcome pets with dedicated areas. Yogi Bear's Jellystone Park offers pet-friendly sites and cabins. Debbie S. notes, "This is just a really cute park to camp in, especially with kids. There is an abundance of activities to keep you and the little ones happy, especially around holidays."
Seasonal activities: Most family-oriented campgrounds offer structured activities from May through September. Claire M. reports about S and H, "Looking for a monthly campsite in the Indianapolis area proved to be a challenge. We were so unsure about staying here as reviews were hit or miss. Decided to take a gamble and give it a try and it's been great! Friendly service, lots to do for the kiddos."
Leveling requirements: Summit Lake State Park Campground sites often need significant leveling adjustments. Marshall P. advises, "Our site was a pull through and, while level left to right, required a good bit of leveling front to back." Bringing extra leveling blocks is recommended.
Hookup access: White River Campground offers three distinct camping sections with varying amenity levels. Jeremiah G. explains, "White River Campground is divided up into A-B-C sections. A is accessible. B is full hookup with sewer and C is water/elec only and tent camping."
Site selection for big rigs: Large RVs may have difficulty at certain campgrounds. Michelle M. notes about Indianapolis KOA, "Very friendly staff. This was our first ever outing with our class A. The grounds were clean and safe. It's very close to an interstate so it's not exactly a picturesque setting. The pricing seems high for what it is."
