“a scenic getaway”

Upon arriving to this scenic getaway you will notice our beautiful new camp store/office/pavilion which is located adjacent to our three fishing lakes. The campground features a beautiful sandy beach, with a large playground, basketball court, horseshoe pits, volleyball court, and bath house all right there! New in 2009 is a putting golf course great for a little practice to hone your putting skills or just to have some fun! Come over and see our awesome, new hard scoop Ice Cream Counter!

Had to cross over a narrow bridge. Lots of trees so we opted for a pull through site. Back in site was $39. Might stay another night. Not sure yet. Because of recent rains and being a wooded area there are lots of mosquitoes. Might change rating if we decide to stay.

This is the most poorly run and most disgusting campground I have ever been to. We reserved two sites side by side for us and another couple 6 months ago only to arrive and be told someone else was on our site and refused to move. They tried to give us to sites on opposite sides of the park from one another and we refused. Finally, two hours later and after much arguing the owner (I think) gave us “two sites” which was really only one seasonal site and our friends had electric only when they had paid for full hookups. We were offered 30 pieces of wood for the “inconvenience”. Come to find out it was staff’s fault that others set up on our sites which is not how it was initially explained. Three days into our week we were told we had to move because the seasonal people were there for their site. Absolutely not, the others weren’t forced to move so neither were we. The sites we were given were a mud pit with almost no grass, there were craters everywhere from where people had moved the fire pit around previously, and so small it was ridiculous. Stopped in at the one bathroom/shower house while on a walk and it looked like it had never been cleaned. Toilets were full and human feces was smeared all over in one stall. We will never be returning and would advise others to look elsewhere

There is not a single valid reason to ever stay in this campground. Any reviews to the contrary must have been written by folks behind on their rent.

The ONLY two good things to say about this place are, the electrical grid supported everyone running their AC, and the pavement is fairly new. Oh, and the check in people were nice.

The campground is primarily filled with full timers living in their beat-up RV’s, or by folks coming up for the weekends with their rigs staying full time.

MANY rigs are in disrepair and have all kinds of junk in their campsite. I’m pretty sure the confederate flags were begrudgingly replaced with US flags. At least one campsite had a big flag with the “F word” on it. Politics aside, is this necessary? Especially with all the kids in this place.

AT&T cellphone service barely works here. Barely able to text a single photo and impossible to view a video.

Management doesn’t seem to notice or care. The dumpsters, located a distance from the campground, are surrounded by trash and they stink badly from within 20 feet. This is just disrespectful of their clients. And by the way most people maintain their rigs they do not value management or the neighbors.

Friday night there was a DJ playing LOUD music and Saturday night there was a Karaoke machine playing LOUD music. Well past the 10 pm quiet time. Several people on golf carts also very loud music as they drove around. Lots of golf carts and kids on bikes.

Big dogs bark loudly and are ignored by their owners. There is trash in the streets and over almost every campsite. Many of the campsites could use a load of gravel as they turn to mud in the rain.

There are at least two lakes and one has a beach with a water slide. The beach shows that it is raked regularly. There are chairs and lounges available. The extensive kids play area has some updated equipment but also had a ‘treehouse’ on posts that is leaning to far for kids climbing on it.

I didn’t visit the recreation room, laundry, or the bathrooms as everything is so neglected, I can’t imagine they are clean or even work. The men’s shower at the beach looks like it’s been closed for months. Two portable toilets are sitting outside.

Again, this place is so poorly managed and maintained there is no reason to stay here. And they don’t refund money for any reason once you’ve paid.

I would leave No Stars if that were an option.

We are full-time RVers working in Fort Wayne. We began the job in June so campground spots were limited in the area. We stayed at Indiana Springs for three months June through the end of August. We have a 38 ft fifth wheel with a long bed truck. This campground is not easy to navigate with a big rig. There are many sharp turns and low trees that you have to watch out for. The pull through sites are in the very back of the campground. Most of the sites are extremely unlevel and muddy. The placement of the hook ups are very strange and make it difficult to place your rig. Our electric bill was the most expensive we’ve ever paid at a campground. We were paying almost $700 a month for rent and electric. if this was a nice campground, I could justify the cost. There is a lake, but it was often closed due to E. coli so we avoided it. There are always geese around the bodies of water, so watch where you step! Many campsites flood and would have standing water for many days after the rain. The playground equipment was very unstable. The water quality is bad. It had a very metallic smell and it will stain your shower and toilet. The campground has a very strict 5 mph speed limit, which is totally understandable but apparently it does not apply to golf carts. Watch your kids because most people are highly intoxicated driving around on their golf carts every weekend. This “campground” is just a party hub for seasonal campers on the weekends. It has more of a trailer park vibe. However, none of these things are worse than the swarms of mosquitoes that promptly arrived at the beginning of July. I’ve never seen so many mosquitoes in my life. We simply avoided going outside at all costs, unless we covered our skin and clothes in mosquito repellent. I still have scars from mosquito bites seven months later. They do not do anything to mitigate the mosquitoes. I asked. Literally the only good thing I can say about this campground is that the roads were paved, which made for fun bike rides before the mosquitoes came. We ended up moving to a KOA in Bluffton which put us 40 minutes from the job, but was worth it to get the heck out of there!

Pretty wooded area but 90% of campers seemed to be full timers with many campsites looking very trashy. People were all friendly though. Tight drive to get to our site in our Class A. Would not stay here again.

This place is more family-focused and has a local campground vibe to it as a lot of the spots are leased or owned by different people... it can get very crowded & difficult to get to back locations depending on the season. There's a small store if you need to stock up on supplies and has lots of activities to offer.
