This is my favorite park in Indiana because it is well kept, has modern amenities and tends to be fairly quiet. The hosts have always been great, the restrooms have always been clean and the sites extremely well maintained. Staff is amazing!

Overall the campground is very clean and most sites are somewhat private. The facilities are also very clean and the hot water is a nice touch for the showers.

Nice outdoor environment. Love the tall trees when the wind blows. Convenient to Bloomington in case you want to eat a meal out.

Nice sites, clean. Spaced apart. Campground was full but didn’t seem busy in my area. Definitely will return

We love Hardin Ridge! It's far and away the best campground we've found in Indiana. It's peaceful, even when most sites are full, because it's so wooded and the sites are well spaced. The staff of volunteers are invariably friendly and fun to meet and talk with. Altogether, it's just a great place to camp.

This is a large site, very comfortable for a long stay. Difficult to level - camp side will need some blocks as will your steps.
Restrooms and showers are first class. Toilet paper is not sandpaper. Staff keep it maintained well.
The trails are great, including the interpretive trail. If you walk down to the lake, be ready for a brutal walk back up the road.
150mb/s with ATT mini.
