Bo Woods Campground is praised for its cleanliness, well-maintained sites, and friendly staff, making it a popular choice for campers. Many visitors enjoyed the peaceful atmosphere and the ample opportunities for boating and biking in the area. However, some noted the limitations in fishing access, crowded weekends, and the condition of restrooms, suggesting areas for improvement. Overall, it remains a favored destination for camping enthusiasts.

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.

Site 125. Shaded and spacious. We have Verizon cell service and we only got 1 or 2 bars at this site. Neighbors were friendly.
