Old Mill Run Park

SUMMARY PRESENTED BYT-Mobile

Reservations are available at Old Mill Run Park, a private, drive-in campground outside Thorntown, Indiana, open from April 1 through October 15. The park runs more than 350 sites, most of them permanent, with full hookup options accommodating RVs up to 65 feet including electric, water, and sewer connections. A dump station is also on-site. Cell coverage is solid here. One reviewer noted strong T-Mobile 5G reception, good enough to stream video during a rainy afternoon.

Amenities lean toward the recreational side of campground life. Two stocked fishing ponds and a large creek give anglers multiple spots to cast. A heated outdoor pool, mini golf, and shuffleboard round out the on-site activities. The terrain is open, and the campground skews heavily toward RVs. Tent campers should know going in that dedicated tent sites are limited, though at least one visitor found a workable open area near the shower facilities.

Crowd levels have drawn mixed feedback. One early reviewer found the campground overrun and overpriced, while more recent visitors report a different experience, particularly in the shoulder season. "Quiet campground in September," notes Barry S.. Demand appears high enough that a waiting list has formed at times, so booking early is advisable. Anglers or families who want more of a natural setting might also consider Broadview Lake and Campground to the north as an alternative.

Visitors often highlighted the heated pool, mini golf, and fishing opportunities as major draws. Limited tent camping options and overcrowding concerns were noted by some guests.

Clean and Comfortable

Not a lot of tent-camping options, but we found a nice open area not far from the showers.  Quiet campground in September.  I would do this again...

Ready for more…

This was only the 2nd adventure out with our new travel trailer. So glad we chose Old Mill Run. Campground is very well maintained with a heated pool, mini golf, two stocked fishing ponds and more. We had a full hook-up, pull through site with plenty of room to the neighbor. Great T-Mobile 5G reception which we used to catch up on some TV shows while it rained a few hours. We’ve already booked our next visit.

Not what it used to be

Not many sites for "tent" camping. This place used to be so nice, but now it is over priced and over run with campers. You should just get a hotel. There is a crazy long waiting list for no reason.
