Best Campgrounds near Hartsville, IN

There were trees down throughout the park including our campsite. It took a couple hours for them to come clean it up but even when the did they didn’t do a complete job. There was still a liability concern with the tree still hanging and branches were just dragged to the edge of the site. The pony rides were closed due to a creek flooding. I think this may be a result of the “DOGE” events as I have been going to this camp ground for years and have not experienced this in the past. Hesitation point never disappoints. The mountain bike trails are fantastic.

Site 22 was so sloped our red levelers barely made it work. Sore needed gravel, it was mostly sticky dirt that got tracked into our travel trailer immediately after sweeping. Lots of locals grouped together in the inner circle sites that were very loud, hooting and hollering until 1:30 in the morning. This campground needs work, which a few sites were recently concreted, but many haven’t seen gravel in years. The park and lodge are fantastic, with wonderful waterfalls and trails. Too bad the extra $9 fee on top of the campsite cost doesn’t seem to be going to the campground

Ok ok giving S an H credit where it is due- I retract my original review which was written while enduring abnormal and unusual Memorial Day/Race Day traffic and hype thaty everyone was on that came with the Holiday and the race.

Still being here after the dust settled and crowds have gone away the place is actually very quaint and comfortable. I would recommend this place as a 5 star camping option especially for any families Id just say of looking for peace and quiet DO NOT come on a holiday! Thank you Sand H for making my stay as good as you could I appreciate the effort and turned out to have enjoyed your site very much..Have a great season!

We camped 2 nights and 3 days here.  The campground was pretty nice.  We had a non-electric site (159). It had extra space and was next to the bathhouse.  There were some trees there that my kids could put up their hammocks during the day.  Nice and level and had a large tree there as well.  Was also right next to the camp host site, if that's something that's important to you. 

The bathhouse was really, really nice.  Very clean and spacious.  However, there was no hot water.  I think this was just a fluke, the camp host said they had just had issues with the hot water heater.  We just walked to another bathhouse for a hot shower (those weren't as nice but, hot water so...).  

The park itself is just okay.  The Trail 7 hike was a little disappointing.  You could see the falls but not super well.  It's one that you need to do to see the falls but not my favorite hike there.  The best hike, in my opinion, was Trail 6 to 5, then down to 2, and back up to 5, finishing on Trail 4 at Hoffman Falls.  Lots to see on that hike and not very crowded.
