Bo Woods provides a very nice place for camping and using Lake Shelbyville. It is clean and well run, and the proximity to Sullivan with the shopping and dining opportunities is a real plus.

Great place for camping and a lovely dog park. Nice boat ramps and the swimming area is large with a nice pavilion. You do need to drive to the beach but it is very close. One recommendation is I do not understand why no golf carts but motor scooters and electric bikes. For us old folks golf cart permitted would be appreciated.
