- TripalotExplorerIs your photo of the Shipshewana South C.G. or the one beside the flea market.
People get the 2 confused - they are about l/2 mile a part on the same road. It looks more like the one down the street from the flea market to me. If you look carefully at the photo I think you can make out the flea market c.g. at the top.
Cool pictures - it is lovely there this time of year. We just got back 3 days ago. The flea market c.g. was full the 2 nights we stayed there. - conmotoExplorerThanks for the post. That is exactly the kind of CG we look for when on the road and needing an overnight stop. I do RC helos and you have a very cool set-up there!

I did not post this as a warning! This is actually a very nice campground for people that need/want to be here for what ever reason. Our reason is that we are having work done on our RV from a couple of different vendors that happen to have facilities nearby.

X2, have stayed there several times and very nice campground. - SanCapExplorerHere are a couple more from the area.

Our cousins place with our RV in the driveway, Gladwin , Michigan - kknowltonExplorer IIFun to see this, since DH has gotten into quadcopters lately (virtually, at least - just online so far). :) Nice sunset shot too.
- DutchmenSportExplorerrobsouth, you've gotta remember, this is Shipsshewana, Indiana. This campground is right beside one of the largest Amish flee markets, Amish auction houses, and Amish style foods and eats, I think, anywhere! The campground is designed for sleeping only, not camping. The attraction is the flea market at Shipshewana. If you have an RV, you'll be glad to get a spot parked there. It's bad enough finding a parking spot with just a normal car.
For the OP, I thin your photo is pretty cool! As many times as I've been there, we've never stayed at the campground. We have stayed a couple nights in the motel right there. FYI, Sunday it's completely dead there! And in Shipshewana, the side walks roll up at 5:00 pm, so we learned the hard way .... many many years ago! - SanCapExplorer
