Confirmed by 2 users | Last reported on September 16, 2023We spent 2 months here to escape the heat. Site was level and grass. We paid $450.00 a month. Very good laundry room There is a lot to do and see in the area. Amish country is nearby and the RV/MH Hall of Fame is just a few miles from campground. If traveling and need to restock it's a great location for that. We would stay here as a stop over but not long term.

Our check-in process was very smooth and the attendant was nice and helpful. We stayed at the area close to the RV Dealer next door, this area does not have trees so it makes it a sure satellite signal. At this area the sites are leveled and not too close together. Pool looks very inviting, although we did not use it. WiFi is good when you are able to connect to it. If you have a WiFi Ranger you can pick up the WiFi signal of the RV Dealer next door, they have a faster service and more consistent signal. The campground is very close to everything, you have gas stations, supermarkets, pharmacies, restaurants, etc. close by. Grounds are kept well groomed and clean, water quality seams good and pressure averages 40 psi. We felt safe and if you are coming to Elkhart, I would think this is your best option.

The sites are mostly all pull-thrus, most of the sites have gravel parking pads and the rest is grass. Nice spacing with picnic tables at each site. There are some tent sites and some back-ins along the tree line. There is a pool, volleyball, laundry (that doubles as a sauna!), a huge fenced doggy area with lots of chipmunk holes for entertainment. There are also some trails back in the woods.

When I consider camping there are four points that add or subtract a campground from my possibilities.
This location has a congested set-up with no space, wildlife, shade or promotion of typical camping among nature, but, rather a three foot space between you and your neighbor, the roadways and a busy, heavily used County Road, along with the Toll Road. No peacefulness here at all.
Pricing of goods/services rendered are the same as a cheap motel room, so why camp?
Quiet locations promote the appreciation of nature, sharing time with your family and teaching your grandchildren about "true" camping without electrical devices. Nothing congenial about this area.
Bike trails are a given when I head out to camp for a month or so and the only thing close to this campground is County Road 4 with more traffic than a country girl wants to hear much less fight for biking space with on the nearby road.
Just because the National Forest isn't outside their back door, doesn't mean it shouldn't feel as if it isn't there.

We stayed in a grassy site (30 amp) under a big tree which we really liked, but most sites were lined up RV style w/no separation. There was a pool and laundry (didn't use) showers and bathrooms were clean. Close poo to highway and not far from Elkhart, which was a nice small town. The wifi reception was poor.

Came in to stay for one night and told them we only needed Electric and water. Gave us choice of 4 50 amp sites. Site worked but ridiculously close (look at picture). If another unit had take site next to us I think the slides would touch. That being said the other sites have much more room, picnic tables and some nicely treed. Bath house adequate. Nice pool and playground. Huge dog park. Some freeway noise. Nice hosts and small store. Lots of nice big rigs. Close to RV museum which we didn’t do but 24 min ride to Newmar plant which we visited and took a tour. Busy repair shop next door. Restaurants nearby. We went to Lucchinas (sp?) which was awesome.

We were in Elkhart for some upgrades to our RV as was probably 70% of the people staying here.
Price - $46 (Full) / $240 week (GS, Escapees discount for nightly)
Check in/out - Speedy check in, friendly clerks, provided a map and explanation of how to arrive at our site.
Interior Roads - Interior roads were hard gravel mixed with asphalt. Roads were wide and easy to navigate.
RV space - Gravel sites mixed with asphalt. Sites were level and had approximately ten feet between your neighbors.
Hookups - We were in a full hookup spot. Utilities were very conveniently placed at the site, easy to use, and no issues with the electricity.
Bathrooms/Showers - Only one bathroom was open and it was at their community barn. The bathrooms there were spacious but dated. We were told the other bathrooms were going to be opened up on May 1st but they were not.
Exercise facilities - Located in the office area, the exercise room was almost non-existent. They had dated equipment but boxes were stacked everywhere inside it.
Pet area - The pet area was huge and fenced in. It had real grass and they kept it mowed...very nice!! No bags were offered but there was a trash can for disposal.
Children area - Probably the shining star at the campground. They had updated playground equipment, nice ground covering, and the space was large.
Cell coverage - 4 bars of ATT LTE
Wifi - We did not use their Wifi
Other - A swimming pool was on-site however there was dirt piled up on the pool deck so I don't think its usable. The trash receptacles were over-flowing throughout the entire stay. They do recycle, but it was also over-flowed and never emptied.

This is a convenient campground when staying in the World’s RV Capital or passing through the area on I-80/90. This is a huge place and wasn’t very busy during our visit so everything was quiet and relaxing. But I can imagine that on the weekends during peak season this place is crazy busy and might be less desirable. There was a small amount of noise from the nearby interstate during the night. We are usually sensitive to this but during our visit this was quite tolerable.
The sites are typical sized for a private campground (narrow.) There is no separation between sites. Our site was level. The facilities appear to be reasonably well cared for.
All utilities worked as expected (could not get campground wifi signal but we never use that anyway.). Verizon Internet was good enough to stream Hd video.
Overall, this place is fine for a quick stopover for a day or two, if we were going to be in the area for a longer stay we would definitely check out a state or municipal park in the vicinity. Overall. We would stay here again.
