Great camping and although lots of campsites, they are separated into smaller groupings in order to feel more intimate. Beach, playground, and boat ramp are accessible by walking from all campsites. Campground can accommodate everything from tent camping to Class A rigs.
Two marinas, a winery, multiple state parks, and a forest are all within easy driving distance. Shelbyville is minutes away and will have anything you may have forgotten or need.
The campsites are large and the campgrounds are dog friendly. The camp gate workers are on site and very friendly. Great place to stay and we will definitely be back.
The only negatives were the nature trail within the campground was completely overgrown and there is no WiFi available.

As usual, this was the peaceful relaxing getaway we needed. Our favorite site, completely shaded, and little to no neighbors ❤

Lots of room at the sites and lots of space. The campers are not right on top of each other. Bathrooms are very nice and plenty of them.
