    Cabin camping near Hanover, IN ranges from rustic accommodations to deluxe options across campgrounds in the region, including Starve Hollow State Recreation Area and Deam Lake State Recreation Area. Starve Hollow offers 13 rent-a-camp cabins with front porches featuring swings and outside electrical outlets. Each cabin contains two small rooms with ceiling fans, lighting, heating/cooling units, and electrical outlets. The front room includes a small table with bench seats, corner shelf, chairs, and a loft, while the back room provides bunk beds and a double bed. "Neat cabins all wood with Portable AC," noted one visitor who stayed at Deam Lake's Chickadee cabin.

    Options range from rustic to deluxe cabin accommodations across several campgrounds in the region. Starve Hollow's cabins operate seasonally from March through November, with limited winter availability through local sales only. Charlestown State Park and Follow The River RV Resort offer more developed cabin options with higher levels of amenities. Most locations allow pets in cabins, though specific policies vary by campground. According to one visitor at Follow The River RV Resort, the campground is "pet friendly and allows portable fences," making it convenient for travelers with animals.

    Most cabins require guests to bring their own linens and mattresses, as they typically provide only the wooden bed frames. As one camper at Starve Hollow advised, "Bring a mattress or sleeping bags or you will sleep on wood." Kitchen facilities are limited in most cabins, with cooking typically done at outdoor fire rings or on grills. Basic provisions are available at campground stores at some locations, including General Butler State Resort Park and Scottsburg/Raintree Lake KOA, which feature on-site markets. For more extensive grocery needs, the towns of Madison, Scottsburg, and Vevay offer shopping options within reasonable driving distance.

      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!

      Versailles State Park Campground

      Beware of additional daily Fee

      Campground is clean but aging. Out-of-state visitors should be aware that they will be charged a $15.00 daily entry fee in addition to their $30-$40. camping fee. Some sights are very unlevel; others are nearly impossible to back into. The staff is nice and friendly.

      Scottsburg/Raintree Lake KOA

      Nice overall campground

      We happened across this place and couldn’t have found a more friendly place to camp. Owner introduce himself right away and told us all about the area and history of campground. Pool wasn’t open yet but nice safe place to camp.

      Charlestown State Park Campground

      Nice weekend getaway

      The campground here has been very nice. Coming into the campground there are two areas of road that have been torn out and need repaired, but nothing you couldn't get over, just slow down. Otherwise, nice campsites, plenty of space, well maintained, water and showers already on at comfort station. Tons of kids with large play park. We liked that the park had small walk trails within the campground with direct routes to the comfort station, and lights at the start of the path to identify it. All around, great experience, will be back again.

      Deam Lake State Recreation Area Campground

      Easy weekend

      Decided to stay another weekend here at Deam to test out some new equipment. Found the E section of camp to be quiet and secluded from the F section. My only complaint is that all of the spots on E definitely require some balancing acts. Overall great weekend.

      Deam Lake State Recreation Area Campground

      Nice weekend get away

      Stayed for the weekend as a first trip for the season to ensure we were setup for the season.

      Self check-in was quick and easy. Vault toilets were open, and clean. Someone was even nice enough to have Mr. Buddy heaters in there along with fresh propane (very kind and thoughtful). Entering the park there was a sign for winter water spigot (brought my own so didn't check).

      Louisville North Campground

      Small campground

      Small campground. Good for transient campers. A lot of full timers and campers that are older than 10 years. Office and women’s bathroom smelled like cat pee otherwise women’s bathroom was clean.

    Guide to Hanover

    Cabin lodging near Hanover, Indiana offers visitors easy access to the Ohio River Valley region, which sits at elevations between 400-800 feet. The area experiences hot, humid summers with temperatures often reaching 90°F and mild winters with occasional snowfall. Most cabin accommodations in the region remain open year-round, though some state recreation areas limit winter services.

    What to do

    Hiking trails: Charlestown State Park features several hiking paths with varying difficulty levels. One visitor noted, "We hiked 4 of the trails, 3 of which were pretty rugged and all had elevation changes for a good hiking challenge." The park's Rose Island trail showcases interesting historical sites.

    Fishing opportunities: Delaney Creek Park offers excellent fishing access with boat rentals available. According to a camper, "Delaney Park is a great family place, nice cabins, good fishing and lots of boats to rent or bring your own."

    Swimming: Versailles State Park maintains a pool with additional features for families. As one reviewer mentioned, "The pool is nice, and the kids love the slides and diving board. They also have a fenced in area for small children with a baby pool and sprinkler."

    Boating: Starve Hollow State Recreation Area provides multiple water access points. "Starve-Hollow Lake has three boat ramps to choose from, one at the dam and two in the electric campground. Kayak, rowboat and canoe rental is available," reports one visitor who enjoyed the electric-motor-only lake.

    What campers like

    Privacy between sites: Follow The River RV Resort offers well-spaced accommodations with natural screening. A camper observed, "There is a tree for shade at every lot, a picnic table at every lot and water access as well."

    Clean facilities: Deam Lake State Recreation Area maintains high standards for its bathroom facilities. One visitor was particularly impressed: "Tons of privacy and the best bathrooms I have ever seen. Not a single bug and they even had antibacterial hand soap at every sink."

    Lake views: Many sites at Starve Hollow feature direct lakefront access. "They have about 20 sites that back up right to the lake allowing fishing from your campsite," according to a regular visitor who camps there multiple times yearly.

    Historical features: General Butler State Resort Park includes historical attractions alongside camping options. "The Butler Mansion was well taken care of," noted one visitor who appreciated the cultural aspects of the park.

    What you should know

    Site grading: Many cabin and RV sites in the region require leveling equipment. At Delaney Creek Park, "Every lot slopes down towards the lake. If you have levelers, should not be a problem, but be sure to bring extra, because it's a good 3" to 5"."

    Seasonal limitations: Most cabins operate with reduced services in winter. A Starve Hollow visitor noted, "Starve Hollow offers camping from full hookup, electric only (by the lake), tent camping, and cabins," but some amenities close seasonally.

    Reservation planning: Charlestown State Park often fills quickly during peak seasons. "We got there and somebody was parked in our assigned spot," one camper reported, highlighting the importance of confirming reservations.

    Basic accommodations: Most cabin rentals provide minimal furnishings. As one Delaney Creek Park visitor advised, "There is not a camp store, so make sure you have all the supplies you need or you'll have to make a trip to Salem, which is only about a 20 min drive."

    Tips for camping with families

    Pool access: General Butler State Resort Park offers swimming benefits for campers. "The lodge lets campers use the pool 4-7 pm for free which is nice," reported a family who appreciated this amenity.

    Playground options: Multiple playgrounds throughout the region provide recreation for children. At Camp Raintree Lake, "There is a sand volleyball net, gah gah ball, dog park, playground, mini golf (not ready for summer yet), and a new pool soon."

    Halloween events: Versailles State Park hosts special seasonal activities. "We love the Halloween festivities! It is so fun to see all the costumes and the decorations all over the campground," noted a repeat visitor.

    Trail difficulty: Consider age appropriateness when selecting hiking routes. At Delaney Creek Park, "the Delaney Loop takes about 6 hours (7.5 miles and 2000 ft elevation change), a good challenge for all ages."

    Tips from RVers

    Hookup accessibility: At Delaney Creek Park, utilities may require extensions. "The electric and water hookups are not in standard locations for RV hookups. Make sure you bring an extension for your electric hookup, otherwise you might not be able to reach the post."

    Site selection research: Charlestown State Park offers various site configurations. "We spent 5 nights at Charlestown State Park in mid-September. Campground was nice with concrete pads and full hookups," reported an RVer who used the park as a base for regional exploration.

    Pet accommodations: Swiss Haven RV Resort welcomes pets at their cabin and RV sites. Located right on the Ohio River, this family-owned operation offers "both full hook-up and electric, 30-50 amp with water sites on a daily, weekly or monthly rate."
