Headed tonight to Charlestown State Park in Indiana, not far from you.
Ever been there?
It looks fairly remote and the guy said only 50 of 200 sights were booked for this weekend. Not sure if thats a good or bad thing???
We went to Charlestown last summer. You'll enjoy the park. We sure did!
WOW! Charlestown state park is just what we were looking for.
There were around 200+ sites to choose from with about 1/3 of those being full hookup. We chose an electric only spot in the back that was surrounded by trees on a huge site. According to the attendant, there were about 75 RV's there but the closest one to us was about 125 yards away, through the trees.
It was quiet as a tombstone and the restrooms/showers were spotless. Nearly every site we looked at was flat as a pool table with paved pull in. There was a fire ring in every site and a drinking fountain & spicket close by to wash pots and pans in. In all, we only used about 15 gallons of the 32 we brought with us.
We didn't bring the kids with us this time. Not exactly a kid friendly place because there is no pool or playground near the RV camping area, but there is plenty of groomed trails, access to the Ohio river with piers and there is a playground down the way in a primitive "event" camping area.
Total tent camping VIBE! Glad to know places like this exist.
