Bo Woods campground at Lake Shelbyville is our favorite camping spot. It's always clean and well kept, and has lots of full hookups.

This campground is in a great location. We camp here often but we had family from up north with us this time. We swam, boating and did some fishing. We did catch fish. The Amish country is not too far from this campground and we went up there for a day. Even the kids enjoyed that. I recommend Bo woods to anyone wanting to camp on Lake Shelbyville.

Overall the campground is nice. The cleanliness and proper function of the restroom and shower houses leaves quite a bit to be desired. I have to assume the state funding is to blame. We'll probably stay here again, but the state of the facilities needs some attention.
