River access draws anglers and paddlers to River Camp Fort Wayne, which sits on forested terrain along the water in Indiana. The campground accommodates both drive-in and walk-in camping, though visitors should prepare for rough access conditions that may challenge some vehicles.
Reservations help secure spots at this paid facility. Campers seeking additional options can explore campsites near Fort Wayne or consider LaSalle Guest House for a different experience.
Description
Each site is in a wooded, shaded area with a flat area on the ground to place a large tent. Each site has its own fire ring and a small wooden table. There is cut firewood in several locations in the woods for all to use, and ample twigs etc on the ground for kindling (do not cut any trees or branches off trees). There are maintained trails with river access for kayaks. There is a single bathroom with flush toilet and sink with running water that is a short walk away. There is an outdoor shower at bathroom, with a water hose available as well. Foster Park is a short bike ride away where you will find greenway trails that run throughout Fort Wayne (ride your bike to downtown!!)
