ScoutThe entire park is just beautiful. It's very family friendly and quiet. The sites are spacious, and there are a lot of nature things to do.
TravelerWe 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.
GuideSecluded camping area with horse hitch. 5 - 6 primitive spots with fire rings and tables. Very little privacy. Tents and vans only.
ScoutO'Bannon woods has just about everything in one little nook, from fishing swimming and kayaking on blue River, a beach at the park. Swimming, horse trails and lodging, electric campgrounds, you name it. It's clean and laid back
ScoutThe park needs a lot of upkeep good showers the staff is really good but a little noisy a lot of junk sitting around that people's site fights are really small and tight okay
LegendNice campground, needs some structural updates. Mostly shaded spots. Not all pads are level or very wide. Some of the tent sites are a challenge to get to and use. Minus a star due to no hot water, I would have been happy with warm but no luck.
Several trails in walking, horse or bike riding distance. Some direct access from the campground.
You can set up here and have plenty to do without ever leaving the park.
Corydon is within half an hour, Louisville about an hour.
TravelerBest option in the park and quietest. Some spots are uneven and tight, but also some very large (back of loop and some of the spots on side of loop in the front)
GuideA quiet little lake/ big pond in the Hoosier National Forest with a few spots to camp.
At the pond there was a pad of concrete leftover from who knows what. I wouldn’t be trying to pull a travel trailer back into here unless it was very small.
On the weekends, the activity picked up with a lot of partying and hunting.
There were a few pickups that patrolled through here regularly, all through the night too. I was never bothered by anyone, but the area is small and I kinda felt like I was on a stage with every passerby.
TravelerGreat spot to tent camp! The showers and real bathrooms were nice too! Plenty of trails and awesome lookout points. The lakes aren’t bad for fishing and kayaking too! Very glad I went!
