Several RV campgrounds surround Wolcottville, Indiana, providing full hookup options for travelers. Twin Mills Camping Resort operates from April 15 to November 1 with 50-amp electric hookups, water, and sewer connections on mostly wooded sites. Shipshewana Trading Place RV Park offers pull-through sites with gravel pads and full hookups, open April through October in a more open setting. Angola/Hogback Lake KOA Holiday features 435 sites with both 30-amp and 50-amp service year-round, accommodating larger RVs on mostly level sites. Chain O'Lakes State Park Campground has limited big rig access with electric hookups available. "Sites are grass but decently level and very spacious. No sewer hookups, but they have a dump station."
Seasonal considerations affect availability throughout the region, with most parks reaching capacity during Shipshewana flea market days and Amish country tourism peaks. Cell service varies by carrier, with one visitor noting "T-Mobile had good signal strength and bandwidth, AT&T was not as good but still doable." Most RV parks near Wolcottville provide sanitary dump stations, though some reviewers mentioned tight turns when accessing these facilities with larger rigs. During peak season, advance reservations are essential, particularly for weekend stays. The proximity to Amish communities creates unique opportunities for RV travelers, with several parks backing up to pastures or farmland. Pet policies generally allow dogs with standard restrictions, and trash service is available at most locations.

Friendly (with a Broken Toilet)
This was our first time camping in our 1991 Coachman Catalina RV with our two small dogs. We had site 50, which was close to a trail and not far from the bathrooms. The campers around us were very friendly. Our dogs were attempting to get used to not barking when they saw other dogs, but everyone was very understanding that it was our/their first time. The site was quiet and offers a few mini golf holes, gaga ball, some photo ops, and a pier. One of the toilets in the women’s restroom wasn’t refilling with water, so every time I went in there, I would fix it. The flusher handle was clearly broken, too. Otherwise, the bathroom accommodations were fine.

Relaxing September Evening at Chain O' Lakes State Park
I stayed one evening last Wednesday here, a first time for me. Just tent camping / sleeping in the car. There were other campers around enjoying the pleasant evening, mainly in RVs. Everyone was very quiet and respectful. The shower buildings are old fashioned with a common area to place clothes and a towel, and only a shower curtain for each individual shower. However, I was the only one showering at the time anyway. The shower area was state park clean, I guess. Before leaving, I viewed the one room schoolhouse on the grounds, just from the windows as it wasn't open at the time. Quaint and old school. Overall, I recommend camping at the park if you can live with the shower building or have an RV for added convenience.

In the trees
We loved our stay here. Trees aplenty, ponds are nice and the little river is right there.

Old, not well maintained
We were here for a music festival. Facilities are dated and in need of upkeep. Showers were disgusting. Staff was friendly.

Simple stop
We used Pokagon State Park as a two-night stopover on our way home from Northern Michigan, and overall, it was a good option for a short stay.
We stayed in Site 109, which was tucked away and felt fairly isolated from the rest of the campground. In early spring or late fall, I imagine the site would have a nice view of the lake, but in August the tree cover was too thick to see much of it.
The gravel pad was reasonably level, but we needed a couple inches of leveling blocks to get the RV sitting flat. There wasn’t really much of a grassy area at the site for the dogs, but we were able to walk them easily just down the road.
We brought our bicycles, which was a great way to explore the park. We rode around to the nature center, equestrian facility, and beach, and enjoyed being able to see more of the park without having to drive everywhere.
One thing that surprised us was the single dump station for the entire campground. Since none of the sites have full hookups, I would imagine the line could get ridiculously long after a busy weekend.
Overall, we’d stay here again, but probably only as a one- or two-night layover rather than a longer destination stay. Site 109 worked well for us because of its privacy and quiet location.

Pokagon State Park Campground
Lots to Do
A very large campground with lots to do. Spacious site. Charges a vehicle fee along with campground fee. Sites in loop 1 are gravel and mostly not level. Lots of noise from motor boats on the lake during the day.

Stay away from loop 6
I love this state park. My kids wanted to Join us a week or to our. Site 507 and 509 were available. Do not stay there. The sewer smell was so bad we did not want to leave our trailer. If that was our first trip we would never returned

Decent Campground - Great for Rallys
We have camped every summer here for years for an annual rally that is hosted here
It’s great that we have the air conditioned rally room that our group rents for all our events and space to spend with group if it’s rainy or hot
There is a differnt experience in park depending on where you stay - if your in full sun open area in summer it’s miserable but if your in the wooded area it’s much nicer
The bathrooms are not the best - they are outdated but have hot water and work great - I prefer the bathhouse by the wooded area over the one in the big building - showers are nicer
The lots are clean and hook ups all work great
Pool is showing it’s age but still clean and kids love to swim in it
Guide to Wolcottville
Wolcottville sits within Indiana's lake region where several interconnected waterways provide recreation options for visitors. Many rv campgrounds near Wolcottville, Indiana remain open from April through October, with a few offering year-round access. The area features mostly level terrain with some wooded sections providing shade for campers during summer months.
What to do
Water recreation: Chain O' Lakes State Park Campground offers access to nine connecting lakes ideal for multi-day paddling trips. "There is so much to do. Between the hiking trails, boating, fishing, kayaking, canoeing, and biking. You won't ever get bored," notes a regular visitor.
Local Amish culture: Explore surrounding communities within 20 minutes of Elkhart RV Resort by Rjourney. "Jerry and his KOA team keep the campground immaculately cleaned at all times! Very efficient in picking up trash each morning, and bathrooms are spotless! About 10 minutes drive to Shipshewana with very kind Amish community folks," shares one guest.
Educational stops: Visit manufacturing facilities for RV enthusiasts. "This clean, well kept campground is really close to grand design. We stayed here to go tour the manufacturers process," says a camper who visited Elkhart RV Resort specifically for this purpose.
What campers like
Lakefront views: Sites backing up to natural features provide unique experiences at Shipshewana Trading Place RV Park. "We had a wonderful experience! Our site was backed up to a horse pasture (in the evening, the horses came over for a quick visit!)," writes one reviewer who enjoyed the rural setting.
Convenient biking access: Pumpkinvine Bike Trail connects several communities near Shipshewana. "This campground was very convenient to the town of Shipshewanna, Amish Country and the Pumpkinvine Bike Trail. There weren't many amenities to speak of, but the sites were fairly spacious and level," explains a cyclist who used the campground as a base.
Clean facilities: Many campgrounds prioritize cleanliness in shared areas. At Crooked Creek Campground and Cabins, visitors appreciate "clean restrooms, easy lake access, friendly vibes. Very quiet and laid back."
What you should know
Seasonal variations: Most campgrounds operate April through October, with limited winter camping options. At Twin Mills Camping Resort, one late-season visitor noted: "Huge campground, we stopped for one night a week prior to their closing for the season. Our site was the farthest loop on the back row. Not too sure with all the empty spots why, but... very wooded."
Site characteristics: Many RV parks offer gravel or grass sites with varying levels of shade. Twin Mills features "several sections in the park, some more wooded and narrow sites, some are more spread out."
Connectivity concerns: Internet access varies across Wolcottville area campgrounds. At Twin Mills, "Internet is through a paid campground service and was $5/day but was actually very good. Not too sure how service would be during peak season."
Tips for camping with families
Recreation facilities: Select campgrounds with play areas for younger visitors. At Angola/Hogback Lake KOA Holiday, "They have all of the KOA amenities pool, lazy river, jump pillow, playground and dog park. Entire campground was clean and well maintained."
Rental options: Consider cabins for mixed camping groups. "We have camp at twin Mills a couple of times and one of those being over memorial day weekend 2019. We had another couple that we camped with and were able to get two sites next to each other. They had lots of various activities going on."
Water activities: Hogback Lake KOA offers water recreation beyond swimming pools. "They have a new pool and lazy river which is fantastic. There's an inflatable obstacle course on the lake. They have docks, pontoon rentals and a launch if you wish to bring your own boat."
Tips from RVers
Full hookup availability: At Circle B RV Park and Cabins, sites include utilities necessary for extended stays, though availability may vary seasonally.
Late arrival procedures: Many campgrounds accommodate after-hours check-in. At Shipshewana Campground South, one traveler reports, "Stumbled into this place after hours and the camp hosts Tom and Char got us all set."
Road noise considerations: Some RV parks near highways may experience traffic sounds. At Hogback Lake KOA, a visitor noted: "The only drawback is the traffic noise if you're staying in any of the sites near the front of the park."
Early reservations: Secure sites well in advance, especially for summer weekends. At Crooked Creek Campground, visitors recommend reserving "a spot roughly a month in advance" to ensure availability during peak seasons.
