Stayed 6/26-28 and fell in love with this gem. Great water pressure, 50 amp service. No sewage but not needed for shorter stays. Across the lightly gravel road is access to the Wabash river trail. Amazing trail all paved. Read a sign that said up to 33 miles of trail. 1 block from campsite on the trail is a cute ice cream stand and canoe rental shop. You can take a 4 hour river float trip.

Check out the drive in movie theatre while you stay. Will be back soon!

A simple place to park with electric and water. The park is bare bones with non-level asphalt pads, but it's very convenient and not expensive. Keep expectations low and satisfaction is easy. Both T-Mobile and ATT have great signal.

Reservations - you must go to the water treatment plant between 8 am and 4:30 pm to pay for a spot and get a set of keys. Sites - taken on a first come first serve basis upon arrival. Water and electric sites. Hook-ups -There's one electric hook ups for two sites. 50 & 20 amp only. One of the keys you get at the treatment plant opens a pad lock on the electric box, the other is a small hose bib...
