Best RV Parks & Resorts near Harrodsburg, IN

Brown County State Park offers multiple RV-friendly campgrounds within 30 miles of Harrodsburg. Taylor Ridge, Buffalo Ridge, and Raccoon Ridge campgrounds provide electric hookups, water connections, and sewer services with 30/50 amp options. Lake Monroe Village features 182 sites accommodating large motorhomes with full hookup capabilities on mostly gravel pads. Many sites at Paynetown Campground have electric service but present leveling challenges on sloped terrain. Site dimensions vary significantly across the region with Buffalo Ridge supporting big rigs while Raccoon Ridge has tighter spacing between sites. Nearby Cloverdale RV Park provides water, electric, and sewer hookups with 30-amp service on level sites. "We had site 137 which was a good site due to the fact we had no one on the left, but many of these sites have a bad incline and people were putting their rigs sideways on the site close to the road."

Navigating to certain campgrounds requires attention to road conditions. The entrance to Brown County-Nashville KOA involves a steep access road that may challenge larger motorhomes. Most RV parks in the area maintain year-round operations, though amenities like showers and water stations close seasonally at some locations. Dump stations are available at most parks, with Paynetown featuring a particularly large facility near the entrance. Cell service varies by location, with strong Verizon and AT&T coverage reported at Buffalo Trace County Park. Reservation policies differ between properties—state recreation areas typically require advance booking during summer months while some private parks operate on a first-come basis. Several campgrounds implement strict alcohol policies, with Taylor Ridge and Horsemen's campgrounds prohibiting alcohol completely. Pet policies are generally accommodating, with most RV parks allowing dogs with standard leash requirements.

    Shakamak State Park Campground

    “Fantastic Indiana camping experience.”

    This is just a beautiful Indiana State Park located near the small community of Jasonville, Indiana which offers simple dining, grocery store, hardware store and fuel. The park has numerous recreational activities to include 3 lakes spanning some 400 acres that are known for spectacular fishing, seasonal family aquatic center for swimming with a large water slide, seasonal nature center, and several hiking trails. The campsites are in a heavily wooded area with fantastic tree canopy for shade and comfort. Sites are mostly level gravel pads ranging from primitive to 30 amp electric, 50 amp electric or a limited number of full hookup; water, sewer and 50 amp service sites plus plenty of clean bath houses. Large rig friendly. The park also has family cabins available. A small camp store supplies firewood, ice, bait and sundries...Indiana fishing license at the park office. Want to relax...enjoy beautiful sunsets on the lake, paddling a canoe or kayak, or casting a line for dinner...this is a perfect place to make that happen.

    Johnson County Fairgrounds

    Not the Best

    We followed our RV GPS into the quaint city of Franklin and turned right off of Jefferson Street onto Fairgrounds Street that leads a short distance to the gate. Waze wanted us to continue on King Street coming in from I-65, but there is a sign that says no trucks and the street is not RV friendly. Our RV GPS had us going the right direction to get to Jefferson Street. As we had made reservations on the day of arrival we were texted by the fairgrounds camp host asking for an estimated arrival time. The camp host site is right at the entrance of the campground (CG) area. As they only take cash or check, we paid the host upon arrival and the host walked us over to show us the site they selected for us. Upon arriving at back-in site 34 with FHUs and 50 AMP, we asked if we could change to the adjacent 30 AMP area, so we could have some space and yard. The camp host said that due to the age of the wiring they do not allow 50 to 30 AMP adapters. However, a 5th wheel came in a day later and hooked into 30 AMP with an adapter. The CG has poor site and utility placement with multiple sites sharing water. The sites back up to each other and the utilities are down the middle. There isn't dedicated site utilities like the majority of CGs, you just pick the water and electric that happens to be open and is closest to you. There are no picnic tables nor fire pits. Be sure to have plenty of water hose(we needed 50’) to reach a spigot. Our area had full timers and short stayers. There was another site area across the field that was either long term or seasonal with decent spacing but we weren't offered any of the empty 50 AMP spots and no one else was put in that area. Wifi was very useable for checking mail, Facebook, and such. Water pressure was good. We got 3 bars on Verizon. With an unobstructed view of the northern sky we used our Starlink. There’s plenty of area to walk your dog inside the fenced fairground areas. The next time we are in the area, we’ll pass on this CG.

    Buffalo Trace Park

    Beautiful lake and well maintained park.

    We stayed a few nights at this campground in October.  The campground is made for smaller sizes but we were able to negotiate the main ring road with our 37' travel trailer.  The spot that we had reserved was in an area were we could not get into but we went to the gatehouse and they gave us another spot that was on the main ring road that we were able to park in with no issues.  Cell service was great with Verizon and AT&T service.  The lake was beautiful and the park was well maintained.  Wished the beach, paddle boats, and petting zoo was open...  Still had a great time.  We will surely come back next year when everything is open!!  Had 30 and 50 amp service with water hookups and a dump station at the exit.  Make sure you have plenty of leveling blocks.  We used all of ours and was not level.

    Paynetown Campground

    Paynetown State Recreation Area

    Paynetown SRA is right on Lake Monroe about 10 minutes from Bloomington, IN. Campsites have a gravel parking pad, picnic table, fire-ring, and electrical hookups. Restrooms & showers were about average... not great/not bad. A private company rents kayaks, jet skis, boats, and paddleboards from the camp-store in the SRA. There are beaches, a nature center, & playgrounds, so it seems very family friendly. There's a cool little pizza place right down the road too. This is the perfect place to camp for a weekend of fun on Lake Monroe. It's also only about 20 minutes from Lake Lemon.

    Brown County-Nashville KOA

    Great forest area

    We called for reservations less than two weeks in advance, and they only had one site left. If coming from the north-west, try to arrive before dark as the road over the hills to this place is beautiful, but narrow and forested with some trees very close to the roadway. The entrance road to the campground is quite steep. We arrived after the office had closed, so they had left an envelope taped to the door with our name and a map to our site. We were in the full-hookup, back-in RV sites connected with the cabins but they are across the street so they’re not too connected if you don’t know who’s in the cabin nearest you. Most of the other rigs in this row seemed to be long-term. We were on the end opening onto trees and the gravel cul de sac. It’s beautiful.

    Pads are gravel and we did need to use several leveling blocks on our site, which made for a doosey of a bottom step into and out of our trailer. This end of the park is very quiet, with dark skies at night for stargazing and lovely field and forest sounds. Even though the office had closed a couple of hours before, the owner Bruce came by after we had set up to make sure we were in ok. Thoughtful!

    The “patio” pad for the picnic table is 12” concrete blocks. It was mostly level, but not near the edge near our tow vehicle. Tripped a few times; these blocks should be redone.

    We needed some trailer work while we were here, so asked the owner for recommendations. The manager Ed then came by after the guy had come to be sure we were pleased with the recommendation.

    Bathrooms were a short walk up the hill to the office. Pretty good, though they often needed supplies restocked.

    We would definitely stay here again. We stayed in site 9.

    Starve Hollow State Rec Area Campground

    Good variety

    Starve Hollow offers camping from full hookup, electric only (by the lake), tent camping, and cabins.  The lake has a swimming area (no lifeguards), playgrounds, and bathhouse.  The lake allows boats with electric trolling motor only. 

    We stayed in the full hookup section (camping facilities: electric, sewer, and water hookup as well as fire ring, picnic table, and parking spur at each site. Modern restrooms/showers(wheelchair accessible) are available nearby. 53 sites available, sites 222, 232, and 234 are wheelchair accessible).  The bathhouse was clean (even though it rained most of the weekend).  these sites are a good size and able to get any size Trailer or RV into these sites.  There is mostly grass on most of the sites in this area.

    The campground also offers electric only sites (camping facilities: electric hookup, fire ring, picnic table and parking spur at each site. Drinking water is available in area. Modern restrooms/showers(wheelchair accessible) are available nearby. Dumping station is available. There are 87 sites available. Sites 28, 44, 65, 75 and 90 are wheelchair accessible).  They have about 20 sites that back up right to the lake allowing fishing from your campsite.  Keep in mind that a lot of the electric only sites are very tight with a lot of trees in the area.  I can probably only get my 36 ft 5th wheel into a third of the sites, but there are many of sites that had shorter units on them.   

    Cabins:  Starve Hollow has 13 rent-a-camp cabins available March-Nov.(closed Dec.-Feb.)(NOTE: Local sales only during off season/winter months, contact property for details). Each cabin has a front porch with a swing, outside electric outlet and front porch light.

    Shakamak State Park Campground

    Very nice campground!

    This was a camping weekend. We've camped here before, but many years ago. It was time to go back. 

    So, we couldn't remember much about this state park. We were never compelled to go back sooner. Now I remember why. This is a nice park. Not outstanding. Not special. It's just...nice. 

      There's 7 hiking trails. All are nice walks in the woods. All were muddy in sections. There's an old coal mine on Trail 2. Blocked off for safety. 

    There's no beach, but they have an enormous pool. It has slides & everything. 

    This is a fishing park. Boating with electric motors, so a quiet lake. Fishing was fair according to my fishing guy.

    The Nature Center was inexplicably closed "for the season". Disappointing! 

    There's many boat launches & picnic areas. Cabins for rent. Boats for rent.

     We stayed at the electric campground. The sites are great- wooded. This is a well established campground. 

    The sites are all flat- ALL FLAT!!! No inclined sites at all! Unheard of in an Indiana State Park, but there you go.

    There's some train noise.

     The bathrooms/showers are KOA clean. Also unheard of in an Indiana State Park. I couldn't even find a spider web. Kudos to the park employees& camp hosts!

     We had a site by the lake, but there was no lake view & there was a steep incline to get down to the water.

      This campground has a beautiful fishing pier just for campers. 

    Bring an extension cord if you're in a pull through. If you want your door facing the fire pit- the electric box is in an awkward place.

     There's also another campground that has a mix of electric/full hookup & non electric sites. They have a beautiful bathhouse. 

    All in all a pleasant weekend. We camped at Shakamak State Park in a Travel Trailer.
