      Liberty, Indiana

      A part of the Brookville Lake-Whitewater Memorial State Park Complex, Whitewater Memorial State Park is a great family getaway because of its 200-acre Whitewater Lake, access to Brookville Reservoir, and other recreational facilities.

      Shoreline hiking, flat-water boating, swimming, fishing and camping opportunities are abundant around the man-made lake. The access to Brookville Reservoir provides many opportunities for seeing migrating flocks of birds.

      Whitewater Memorial State Park boasts 9 miles of horseback riding trails with access both for day users and from the horsemen’s campground. The saddle barn concessionaire offers hayrides, guided trail rides, and sleigh rides, weather permitting.

      The land for the park was originally purchased by the surrounding counties of Union, Fayette, Franklin and Wayne as a memorial to the men and women who served in World War II. It became the 16th park in the Indiana State Park system in 1949.

      Too much drinking and loud music

      Dont go here if you expect peace and quiet. We were in a group campsite and there were partiers on both sides of us. Music blaring and yelling all night long. Complaining doesn't do any good either. Park ranger just went and said quiet time was at 10 but never came back around at night to check to see if people were abiding by the rules.  Won't be going back. Too much money to spend only to have to put up with no sleep because of loud music and drunks.

      Leaves some to be desired

      It's easy to get there. The non-electric sites don't have a lot of space or privacy (ie; trees) between them, definitely no hammocking. There's also a private camper's beach that is absolutely serene, probably not safe to swim in. Due to it being a holiday weekend, it was busy & loud like you'd expect, but it was so rowdy we left early. When we showed up, someone dumped all their trash in our firepit, absolutely disgusting behavior. Two different camp groups, one in electric and one in non-electric, got into loud verbal fights that resulted in the police being called. Fireworks and loud music were played all night long. No quiet hours, or if there are any they're not enforced. It's still great for a night visit if you're in the area, but it's not a dream weekend getaway by any means.

      Lush green heaven

      This place is off the beaten path by a lot, but it's so serene and beautiful. The non-electric site was almost all real primitive campers. There were tons of trees nearby for privacy and hammocking. There wasn't cell service in the non-electric area, but a walk to the main area/electric sites gave you service. There's some pretty cool trails in the woods and the sun too. Only real bad thing were the raccoons; they were an absolute menace. They started creeping out of the woods and in the fields around 7:00, a full 2 hours before sunset. Be vigilant with your food! Otherwise it's paradise

      Nice but hard to get good sites on weekends !

      Limited level campground with full and electric hookups (does have WiFi). Best areas are A (full hookups and B (electric hookups) with concrete pads, some with slight slopes. First sites #s on A side do have larger slopes! C through E are electric only but are hilly grass pads. Other areas are back in the woods with no WiFi connections and primitive bathrooms/ outhouses (no showers) But park has great recreational activities. Book early for weekends which are almost non existent during the summer for A and B areas! Also only one dump station in B area.

      1-70 overnight

      Clean and empty at this time of the year. Tried to do the right thing and reserve for the night however the booking site through the state wouldn’t work. Slept for the night after a long day of driving

      Very nice campground

      We had a lovely overnight stay when we went midweek. I imagine that the weekends are much busier. The showers are very clean and well-maintained. The camp store carries the basics. Although we didn't take advantage of the ranger programs, several looked interesting. We would go back again!

      not our style

      we stayed at this campground on a recommendation from a friend. it was insanely crowded, very small sites. children riding bikes everywhere made driving a bit scary. we did manage to find some trails and escape the crowds for the afternoon but we’re not impressed enough to return.

      Holiday weekend

      This campground is in a state park just north of Brookville lake. In fact you can access Brookville lake from the park. The campground is clean. Standard sized campsites. I believe most of the campsites are electric of which there are 330 individual sites. The restrooms and showers were clean. However, I believe there were only two bathroom/shower houses on the property. Not a whole Lotta area for Bank fishing so if you went fishing it was usually crowded. You could rent canoes or boats at $10 per hour. I spent a lot of my time on the hiking trails of which there are several. They are well marked and well traveled.

      Group Site is the way to go!

      We had an excellent time with our camping trip at Kiser Lake. We were incredibly impressed with the kind staff. We had purchased 8 bundles of wood ($5/bundle) and it was all wet and not usable. The staff worked hard to find us replacements that may have come from a different shipment. We were able to use that to get going and dry out the wet bundles.

      We booked a group site which was perfect for us with our dog and our group. It seemed like the regular campsite seemed too crowded for our taste.

      Average

      The park is great for hunting and has a few good spots to fish. The hiking trails are often over grown and not very challenging. There are quite a few camping areas and a great day camp for events.

      Beautiful on the lake

      We came in November so water hookups were off and bathrooms were closed down (although that wasn’t communicated to us). The running trails were fun and the spaces were far enough apart for some privacy.

      Site 239 worked well for our Apex Nano 193. The bathroom stayed open until till and is brand new. Hiking was great. Fire pit was fine. Site is all asphalt and cell service was great with Sprint/Tmobile and ATT.

      Nice medium size campground. Must reserve online as they are still doing everything virtual.

      Nice medium size campground. Must reserve online as they are still doing everything virtual. Camp spots were decently sized but no cover between camp spots and little shade. Bathrooms were clean but not spotless and in need of a little repair. We were there on a Tuesday in October so not very crowded. All in all a nice place to stay for the night and get a good shower. 108 was very close to the bathrooms.

      Infested Bathrooms

      This campsite would have been perfect if not for the bathrooms littered with bugs, insects, and spiders. Otherwise, the campsite was quiet, the tent sites were nicely spaced out, and the bathrooms were easily accessible.

      Happening Place

      Busy, fun atmosphere this weekend but quiet enough in our area. We stayed across from the playground in Loop B and it felt less crowded because we were across from a field. Plenty of trees for shade. Beautiful area.

      My partner and I stayed at the campsite. Our spot was great and the hiking was super convenient and amazing! The lodge was SO awesome. A true staple of the 60’s. The food there is a must! Best brisket and pizza we’ve ever had hands down.
