My husband and I are full-time travelers and have been to all 50 states. This is the only place that made us pay for our motorcycle when we took it out of the toy hauler. Every other place whether it be government or private has told us that they do not care about the motorcycle and have never charged us for it. The older woman at the gate who worked the morning shift was not very friendly. She was totally completely by the book and it gave us a bad taste for this campground. We were there most of the time by ourselves and it was very quiet. For a 12 days day stay we ended up paying more than we have ever paid at any State park. Pretty sure we will not go back.

We visited Indian-Celina Lake in early August. We camped on the Soth Loop Site #24, the park was well maintained and the shower house was clean. There were only a few campers there and the park was very peaceful as it usually is. Which is one of the reasons we enjoy going there. We will be back.

I've visited here for years. You won't find a better campground. Sites are spacious. The lakes are clean. The camp hosts are friendly and helpful. If you want a quiet place to enjoy nature, this is it.

Beautiful wooded, spacious, widely separated campsites. Celina lake is very attractive with wooded banks, along with some rock ledges. Water is very clear- nice for kayaking. Bathhouse is adequate and clean, but aging fixtures. No dump station or RV water fill in campsites- located 3 mi away, so plan accordingly.
