We've stayed at Bo Woods many times. It's always clean, even the bathrooms. Some of the sites are VERY long. They all seem level. Shelbyville Lake is beautiful.

Big, spacious and clean. Very friendly staff. Although not a negative, the entrance is a little tedious - like threading a needle.

I can’t say enough good things about this campgrounds. The sites were long and level. Our site was 115’ in length. Long enough for our truck, boat and camper. Just a short walk down a path and could walk down to the boat. The lake was nice and quiet. Not many boats on the water as we would have expected. Would highly recommend!

Beautiful campground and Campsite with lake view. Very friendly hosts.
A bit disappointed in the messy firepit, and we cleaned it up for the next campers . Had a heavy rain one night and a Camp Swampy for most of the next day until in drained away. Had to leave day early, and was pleasantly surprised to get a day's refund! Didn't expect that. The full shade was very nice in 90's temps. 4.5 stars outta 5.
