"Turkey Run is arguably the most popular campground (and state park) in Indiana and has its pros and cons."
"Much enjoyed hiking some of the trails at Turkey Run State Park near Marshall, Indiana. This is Indiana's 2nd oldest state park, now 100 years old (1916-2016)."
$12 - $21 / night
"Canopied by the big beautiful Indiana trees. Close to some good hiking trails."
"Located north of turkey run state park shades offers all the hiking and scenic terrain with less amenities and less crowds. Sugar creek cuts through the ancient sandstone floor creating canyon walls."
$12 - $42 / night
"Raccoon State Recreation Area | Cecil M Harden Lake is located in the heart of historic covered bridge country just 50 miles West of Indianapolis."
"There are multiple boat ramps for easy access to the water. I met a friend there who is a resident of Indianapolis and we had a great time on the water."
$25 - $40 / night
"Lake Waveland's grounds crew does a very good job keeping the property in order ... and that's no small task, there is a TON of green space on this property!"
"Nice clean park in west-central Indiana that has a lake and a large number of camping sites along with restrooms and showers."
$25 / night
"Only sites are next to us. Woods behind and open grass and field in front of this site. Disc golf course is awesome, in the woods, up and down ravine. 18 holes plus practice basket."
"That spot has a trail behind it to go down to a little dock which seems like many other people may use the trail, so probably won't use that site when it gets busy."
"We arrived at 2am, but they had us all situated for late checkin. The campground itself was very lovely and quiet."
"Really cute little park with lots of shade and convenient access to Crawfordsville. We were here for a quick stopover, but made friends with several locals spending time here."
$22 - $120 / night
"As the other reviewer pointed out, further away from the entrance will get you away from the road noise. The shower house was very clean and well kept.
I would definitely stay here again."
"A port-a-potty was near by, but the shower house was a short drive away. Also, the site, 27C, was alone with timber separating it from the nearest site."
$30 - $45 / night
"There are few trails looping around for the walks. Most of tent sites got shade. Rv sites all seem to be level, although kind of close together. Nice and clean bathrooms and shower facility."
"The campsite it very spacious and there’s a decent amount of distance between each site. Sites by the river are especially nice."
"It's a nice place to walk around, though we were wandering past empty tent spots so in the busy season it might be less free-form on where you can roam."
"Very clean and well kept, smaller but with direct access to an awesome creek. Kids played in the creek all day long. Cheap and plentiful firewood. Really friendly and family owned"
$35 / night
"Site 91 was tucked away in a more forested area away from RVs. Did a nice kayaking loop using their service. Had everything you needed, very chill experience. Will return fsho."
"That being said it did seem a little tight in certain area we were in but we drove around and rest of campground looked awesome!"
ScoutCute little park, off of 41, most sites are water and electric, most do not have sewer but there's a dump station. Very affordable. Owners are very nice and easy to communicate with. Theres a campstore and ice on site. Great fishing pond. Look around for cute carvings. Very close to Turkey Run, Shades, and Raccoon Lake!
ScoutFirst time at this KOA, site was okay, gravel pull through but sewer hookup was all the way at the end of the site, needed extra extension to hook up sewer. The bathroom and showers were disgustingly dirty, both men's and women's smelled and were disgustingly dirty. I can't believe I paid $72 for such terrible accommodations.
ScoutNice campground electric hookups my 34' travel trailer fit nicely
TravelerStayed at Poplar Grove Electric campground. We were there for two nights. We were working and we were grateful StarLink worked well. Husband was able to take his gravel bike out for a nice ride after work and I got in a nice little walk. Bathrooms were fine but a long walk.
GuideWe passed through here and stayed the night. Prices are a little high compared to when you receive but the park is beautiful.
We stayed at site 1 thinking it would be nice for the kids to be next to a park but the park was pretty dull.
GuideOur first night, we arrived just at dusk. We set up right by the water. Mind you, we have a tent. The host asked where our Rv was, and I clearly marked that I had a tent. We woke up the following morning to find the lake is actually a large pond, 10 ft deep that is stocked every 2 years. Okay, I'm thinking the fishing would be good, even out on the boat, NOPE. MOSS EVERYWHERE! Raw sewage next to our camp site in the lake, the lake is filled with moss and black sewage overfill also. They packed the campers and tent within 10 to 15 feet if you were lucky of each other. Some of the parents were out of control, to the point the camp host even told us he wasn't a babysitter, but neither are my own two children. The lack of parenting really surprises me. We were fallowed by the host and workers on many occasions till the troubled parents came with their children. Needless to say, fishing sucked, do to moss even in the middle of the pond. Would have been nicer if we could have caught something, other than trying to pull other people's children out from in front of a MOVING RV!! And we weren't stacked on top of one another. Extremely crowded, stalker weird employees, they do not offer firewood or ice. They do offer an overcrowded experience, moss filled fishing, and free babysitting at other campers expense. We even asked multiple times if we could move spots, even if to primitive, we were told no, they were all booked, yet the spots remained empty. WILL NEVER BE BACK! If we didn't live 3 hours away, my husband even said we would have gone back home.
ScoutWe stayed over Memorial Day weekend. We had a great time. It was quiet and our spot didn’t have any neighbors. This location doesn’t have “sites” unless you’re using a camper/RV.
TravelerThis park is just other-worldly. We loved it. We hiked Trail 3, which has the ladders, and parts of trail 10, 4, and 2. Trail 10 was nothing special but was relatively flat. It was pretty crowded but people were respectful.
As for our campsite, it was really nice. We had site 94, which was right next to the bathhouse. It had almost a whole extra campsite's worth of space next to it for my kids to run around. It also had a tree for shade and was nice and level.
The bathrooms were okay. They were older but seemed to be fairly well maintained. The only complaint I had was that there wasn't enough counter space to set down items for getting ready, but that is minor.
Overall, wonderful park.
TravelerFriendly employees; my site was easy to level, beautiful wooded campground convenient to interstate
