Charlestown State Park in Southern Indiana is probably the best choice if you like the State Park atmosphere. Some sites have full hookups.
September 2013 we stayed at Charlestown State Park. Here's a couple photos of our camp site. To answer the "concern" above, most KOA campgrounds are "tighter" than State Parks. Sometimes you'll find one that's spread out, but in my experiences, not too many. Private campgrounds are diversified, but usually smaller than most state park camping spots in Indiana.
For what it's worth, if you camp at an Indiana State Recreation area, the camp sites are usually pretty large and spaced out. Reason is, there is adequate parking for an RV, a boat with trailer, and an automobile or a toad. We really enjoy the State Recreation areas because of this.
Anyway, here's Charleston. This was our first maiden voyage with our Outback in 2013. We picked an open site (no trees), so we could use our DISH-TV satalite,which worked great. There are LOTS of other sites that are 100% shaded. Really a nice park.
