Shakamak State Park Campground and Greene Sullivan State Forest offer cabin accommodations within wooded settings near Jasonville. Cabins at Shakamak feature electricity, picnic tables, and fire rings with most providing basic furnishings including beds and seating areas. "This is 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 also has family cabins available," noted one camper. Narrow Lake Campground at Greene Sullivan State Forest provides more rustic cabin options with vault toilets nearby and limited amenities, making them suitable for campers seeking a more primitive experience while still having shelter.
Rustic and deluxe cabins are both available, depending on the location. Fowler County Park offers a single rental cabin that requires advance booking, especially during summer months. Sullivan County Park maintains several cabin units with varying amenities, all within walking distance of the lake. Most cabins in the region require reservations, particularly during peak season from May through October. Pet policies vary by location—Shakamak State Park allows pets in designated cabins while others maintain strict no-pet policies. A visitor to Greene Sullivan State Forest mentioned, "We originally planned to tent camp the first weekend in October but with 30 degree temps and children, we decided to check out the cabins at Greene Sullivan. They did not disappoint. Heat was phenomenal."
Most cabins include beds but require visitors to bring their own linens, towels, and toiletries. Kitchen facilities vary significantly—some cabins offer only basic outdoor cooking areas with fire rings, while others provide small refrigerators and microwaves. Jasonville offers a grocery store for supplies, though many campers bring essentials from home. Firewood is available for purchase at most park offices or from camp hosts. During winter months, cabins with heating systems remain popular, particularly at Shakamak State Park which operates year-round. Turkey Run State Park, though farther from Jasonville, offers additional cabin options with more amenities for those willing to travel slightly farther.

GuideThis is our family favorite camp park in Terre Haute! Has great hiking trails, a covered bridge with historical log cabins for festivals. They have 1 cabin you can rent out. Bring your fishing gear, they stock the lake. There's and boat ramp and bank access to kayak. They have some pull through for your big riggs and some sand beds for your tent camping
GuideThis is a very nice campground just outside of Vincennes. Love the camp ground, does have electricity and water. Very shaded. Also has cabin rentals that are fantastic. Lots of trails to walk. Dog friendly.
TravelerThis campground is nestled on a ridge above Indiana's Lake Monroe. The wooded sites include a fire-ring, a pole for your lantern and generous flat graveled areas to pitch your tent, as well as a couple of picnic tables per site. There are pleanty of RV sites with electric hookup available as well. Each area of the campground has a knowlegeable courteous full time host, and ice is available at the main gate. Foraging for wood is allowed which is a definite bonus in this era of emerald ash-borer awareness and wood import restrictions. The plentiful raccoons seem almost tame, yet keep a safe distance from campers if you allow them to. There is a small beach to beat the summer heat, and nearby showerhouses (even in the non-electric sites) are kept clean with adequately warm water. There is a small interpretive hike with approximately 300 feet of elevation change situated near the ampitheater that can be completed in a couple of hours.

Personal Thoughts and Experience: We had a wonderful time. We absolutely loved the pioneer village. it is a must go especially when they are having pioneer days in the fall. There is a mountain bike park close to the campground that is a premier facility. Beginner to advance trails with a practice course. Amazing! My husband competes in the Dyno series and loves to train at the facility then camp at Fowler Park!

Great place to stop overnight or for a few days. Can hear the highway; but it's not very loud or intrusive. Camp host/owner is very friendly. Plenty of room for kids or pets to roam and play. Very clean and safe.
GuideI have to say it is always nice to stay at a state park in the off season. There are a couple hundred sites in this park and we were one of about 12 occupants. Even if this park had been full, the sites offer nice space. Sites vary from full shade to wide open out in the sun. Bathrooms are clean, but they are pretty spread out. Most sites offer electricity, but no water or sewer hook-up for RV. Water spigots are pretty spread out too. Each site has a picnic table and fire ring. I didn't see any camp hosts that sold firewood when office is closed. Park is located right across the street from the local high school, I thought this was sort of odd.
We were just passing through for a nights stay, but it looked like there were some nice trails for hiking. The children playgrounds looked nice as well.
TravelerLocated on a Navy Base, so only open to active duty, retired military, DoD civilians and their families. Must have ID card to get on base.
The base is very large in area and wooded. Watch out for wildlife, especially deer and pay attention to speed limits. Don’t mind the occasional explosions and distant machine gun fire ; they test ordnance there. But no worries, it isn’t loud at the campground.
The campground is located by Lake Greenwood, so the MWR operates a marina where you can rent boats, kayaks, paddle boards and so on. They sell bait and ice. There’s a nice boat dock if you need to launch your own boat and plenty of dock space to tie your boat up. You can fish or waterski on the lake; it’s that big.
The campground is not real large. It’s all gravel, but full RV hookups. The electric, water and sewer services are reliable, but no Wi-Fi and unless you have Verizon, no cell service (but they are supposed to have a new AT&T tower up soon). They have nice cabins and a separate tent site area, where there’s a small beach for swimming. Pets are welcome. They have a little shack with firewood; $5 a wheelbarrow load. Every site has a fire ring and a picnic table. The shower house is a bit dated, but clean. There’s dumpsters close by. Very pretty location.
They do have daily, weekly, monthly and seasonal rates.
There’s a base exchange and commissary on base, but the closest town is about 20 minutes away, a small town called Odon, but you can find whatever you need there. Bloomington is about 50 miles away. The tiny village of Crane is outside the gate. There’s a bar and a pizza place and that’s about it.
RV’s and trailers must use the Crane gate, located off I69 exit 87, then south on US231 a couple miles. You’ll see the signs. Call ahead for reservations; they do fill up most weekends and you’ll need them to explain the check-in procedure once you get on base.
LegendThis 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.
LegendThere is just one thing that keeps me from rating this a 5 star campground. It's the sites! So....4 stars...but read on for my thoughts on the sites.
What's up with these sites?
If you want to be be able to see what your neighbors are eating and hear their conversations, you'll love the electric sites (1 through 189).
If you like to feel like you're alone in the woods, you won't like most of the electric sites.
There is a partial solution. Sites 190-202 have no electricity, but most are fairly private/secluded. Sites 203-222 are additional primitive sites on a loop but they are not at all private; you can see lots of neighboring sites. There's a lot of shade, but you could probably set up solar panels if you require electricity.
If you want privacy in the electric section (1-189), I don't have a great recommendation other than you should stay on the outside of the loops. Then you'll only have people beside you rather than beside and across from you.
Good luck! Stay one night when there aren't many people and scope out sites for your next stay. If you're from the area, this could be a park worth returning to over and over if you are able to stay on a site you enjoy.
I've included a map of sites 1-189 and photos that show some sites I like and sites I don't like. In my opinion, a site is not one for me if I can see 3 other picnic tables while sitting at the table at my site. If you camp with other families, this would be good because you can make your own 'group' site.
Something you need to know: Indiana state parks have a $7 entry fee but you'll only pay it once (unlike some states that make you pay every day). It's supposed to be $9 for non-residents, but we were only charged $7. The hang tag for your vehicle will get you in the main entrance for the rest of your stay.
If you come without a reservation: The registration attendant assigned a site to us but maybe you can choose one. Since it was the day after Labor Day and the park was sparsely populated, there was no one near us. Privacy was not an issue for our stay, but we wouldn't have enjoyed our site on a busy weekend...although there were many sites we would have liked even less.
The basics: picnic tables, fire rings, dump station, potable water, flush toilets and sinks in the bathrooms, separate shower facility. There are vault toilets closer to sites 190-222. Sites 1-189 have electricity.
Activities: Nearby swimming pool and playground. There are almost 11 miles of hiking trails. The longest one is 2 miles, but you can combine some trails and wander in the woods for quite a while. You can also wade in McCormick's Creek; the water was low in early September. You can stay busy in this park for quite a while. And if you want to go to Bloomington, it's only about 25 minutes away
Cabin rental options near Jasonville, Indiana include properties with various amenities and seasonal availability. The region sits at approximately 528 feet elevation with a humid continental climate featuring four distinct seasons. Summer temperatures typically range from 80-90°F while winter can drop below freezing, affecting cabin rental availability and pricing throughout the year.
Fishing opportunities: Hardin Ridge offers multiple fishing spots along Monroe Lake. "Took the family on a weekend camping trip to Hardin ridge and had a great time!! We went fishing down by the ramp and caught a mess of bluegill which we fried up back at the campsite," reports camper Sheldon E.
Swimming options: While many cabins near Jasonville don't have direct water access, nearby recreation areas provide swimming. At Turkey Run State Park Campground, "There is a river to tube and canoe in to keep you cool," according to Michelle M., who stayed during a hot weekend.
Trail exploration: Several cabin locations offer hiking paths with varying difficulty levels. Turkey Run State Park features "multiple trails and some quite challenging ones. No water hookups at the site but all except the 'youth sites' had 110, 30, and 50 amp power," notes camper leif D.
Outdoor activities: Many cabin rentals provide convenient access to recreational facilities. A visitor to Fowler County Park mentioned, "There is a nice beach. Also have a Pioneer Village and nice playgrounds. Great place for fishing, picnicking, canoeing/kayaking."
Spacious accommodations: Sullivan County Park offers cabin rentals with room to spread out. "Camping spots are spacious but fill up quickly for the season. Boating, fishing, and lake swimming/beach area are great," notes Sarah S.
Efficient heating: Winter cabin rentals near Jasonville provide comfortable temperatures during colder months. Guests appreciate proper climate control features for fall and winter stays.
Convenient amenities: Cabins at Shakamak State Park Campground provide useful features. "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!" reports Cynthia K.
Access to water features: Many cabin renters value proximity to lakes and water recreation. One camper at Fowler County Park noted, "$12 primitive tent sites on water. Kinda close together and some are shaded. Sites have sandbox pads. Pets allowed. Nice bathhouses."
Reservation requirements: Most cabin rentals near Jasonville require advance booking, particularly during peak season from late spring through fall.
Supply needs: Cabins typically provide basic furnishings but require guests to bring their own linens, food, and personal items.
Terrain considerations: Some cabin areas feature challenging topography. At Shakamak State Park, one visitor mentioned, "We had a site by the lake, but there was no lake view & there was a steep incline to get down to the water."
Cell service limitations: Connectivity varies widely across cabin rental locations. A visitor to Shakamak noted, "One downside was we had Verizon as a cell phone carrier and only had one bar."
Wildlife awareness: Prepare for local wildlife encounters when staying in cabins. "We had several nighttime visits from a couple large raccoon families, but it became a game for the kids as they watched for them," mentioned a camper at Shakamak.
Consider space requirements: Select cabin rentals with sufficient room for your group size. Cecil M Harden Lake Raccoon State Recreation Area receives positive reviews for family accommodation. "I loved this camp ground, there was a beach which was nice and a building to get food. They have a basketball court, and a few trails," notes Staci J.
Look for dedicated activity areas: Cabins near recreation facilities provide additional entertainment options. "Bathroom facilities are very clean, new bike, walking, rollerblading path. Beach is large and clean. We go every year and love it!" shares a Cecil M Harden Lake visitor.
Pest preparation: "In August beware of the bugs!" warns a Shakamak State Park visitor, highlighting the importance of bringing insect repellent for cabin stays, especially during summer months.
Check bathroom facilities: Cabin rental bathroom arrangements vary significantly. Some locations offer modern facilities while others have vault toilets or require visitors to use communal restrooms.
Electrical connections: For RV campers using cabins as base camps, Shakamak State Park offers reliable power options. "There's some train noise. 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," advises a camper.
Site levelness: When positioning an RV near cabin facilities, be aware of terrain variations. "Most of the spaces that had both water and electric were mostly in the sun. But all the other spaces had plenty of shade and trees around them. Our space was spot on level," notes a visitor to Shakamak.
Seasonal availability: Many cabin facilities near RV sites close during winter, though some remain accessible. Before planning a combination cabin/RV trip, check operating schedules for specific locations.
