    Horsemen's Campground in Brown County State Park, located about 30 miles south of Greenwood, Indiana, provides essential facilities for equestrians with electric hookups, water access, and showers. The campground features both 30-amp and 50-amp electrical connections for RV campers, with sanitary dump stations available on site. While specific horse corrals are not listed in the facilities, trail riders note the campground accommodates larger rigs designed for transporting horses. The wooden fences in the camp area, tie posts for horses, and some picnic tables have been reported in need of repair.

    The extensive trail system at Brown County State Park makes it a popular destination for horse enthusiasts. Located near Nashville, Indiana, the park offers hours of riding opportunities with numerous hills and varied terrain. Trails remain accessible throughout most of the year, though the campground is notorious for flooding during heavy rains, with some tie-up areas for horses becoming muddy. Horse Camp Road Dispersed camping in Hoosier National Forest provides a more primitive alternative for experienced equestrians, offering free camping with fewer amenities but direct trail access. The road to Horsemen's Campground crosses a creek multiple times, which may have water flowing over it during rainy periods, requiring caution when hauling horse trailers.

      Johnson County Park

      Johnson County Park

      The good: Hosts are very nice. Bath/shower house clean. Close to the city of Franklin, but rural. Not so good: next to an Indiana National Guard site. Was mostly quiet during the week, but louder on weekend. Revelry playing at 6 am, helicopters, etc. Also, be aware, website does not say, but they do not allow tent camping, car camping, makeshift tent trailers, box truck campers etc. But currently allow pop up campers. I have a Sylvan Sport Go and was told I'd have to leave. Eventually allowed me to stay for my reserved time and decided it was a legit enough camper.

      Berry Ridge Road - Dispersed Camping

      Great Spot!!

      Great for car camping or tent camping. 2.2 miles of gravel dirt road. Very set off the road and private. Very leveled. Shaded by the trees. Clean. Cell service was great.

      Berry Ridge Road - Dispersed Camping

      Perfect Nature Getaway!

      We love these campsites! So much space, existing fire rings, there was wood left behind from previous campers so that was nice! We have a reactive pup and she is able to live her best life there! We enjoyed all the trails around our site as well.

      Horse Camp Rd Dispersed

      Hippies hanging out

      Nice big open field with plenty of places to park and pitch. A bit crowded for midweek, but not too bad.

      Berry Ridge Road - Dispersed Camping

      Free camping

      Bunch of little spots along this road to pull into. Set up with rent and vehicle. Just trees knocking, bugs curling and frogs croaking. Did see a rattlesnake dead on the road. No toilet but good reception

      Great spot

      This was a great place to car camp while driving across USA. The main spot was full but I found a great pull off spot a lil further. I came across at least 5 lil spots. There a nice trail meandering next to road.
