The “managers” that live on site were very frustrated and rude about me asking for clarification on a rule. Then the campsite host had three vehicles at their site and had small children riding out of the top of a moon roof on the road several times a day. But it was an issue that we had 3 vehicles and 3 tents......

Hardin Ridge Recreation Area in Hoosier National Forest offers six camping loops with a range of amenities. We stayed on one of the few sites (Holland #205) which had both electric and water. The campgrounds were very clean and we stayed mid-week in May and it was very quiet. The camp hosts were very friendly and they sell firewood and ice at the entrance station. I brought my bike and enjoyed riding through the various campgrounds which are all very scenic. Great location for day trips to Nashville, Bloomington and French Lick. Looking forward to returning in the fall to enjoy the colors. Especially nice campgrounds for tenting and smaller travel trailers.

Was such a beautiful Campground and the camp host were very helpful. We had a location right near the bathroom which was convenient and the showers were nice. However they did have a lot of bugs in the showers.
