Stayed in the White Oak loop, showers and bathrooms were clean. Host was friendly, loop was quiet. The whole area is comparable to Brown County SP. Nice sites, with level pads. Will definitely be back.

We always love going to Hardin Ridge. The variety of sites is great and the camp hosts are always super nice. We love how clean the restrooms are as well. All around incredible place. We wish the beach was open more often is the only downside.

One of my favorite recreation areas. The bathrooms are always clean and love the fact the showers are single occupancy! The campsites are big and spread out with lots of shade. Great hiking and nice area to just chill and relax.

We stayed in the EADS loop - tent only, no electric. Had the loop to ourselves. The shower house was locked, with no signage explaining why or where else to go (still: five stars).
