Campgrounds were nice, very spread out and spacious. Very woodsie and lots of privacy. Shower house was clean but needed a heater. Other bathrooms were clean also. The campground host were very friendly.

I think you should charge for 2 cars in one camp. Especially for every night you're there.

This place is so peaceful. One of my favorite places to camp in Indiana.

Our stay in the northface started on 6 Oct and ended on 10 Oct. Campground is clean and well maintained. Site had electricity and water is available (but not at each campsite); wooden picnic table and firepit. Northface is a one-way loop that gradually ascends at entry, briefly levels off at the top, and then descends back to the start of the loop. Some sites didn't look like they would level easily, but others were level without any effort. Pit toilets were clean. Bathhouse was very nice: toilets, sinks, warm showers, clean. Dump station is not on the campgrounds, but is a few miles away (may need to ask host for directions as it isn't easy to find). Check-in/pout was quick/easy. Location is wooded (beautiful in the fall) and quiet. Appears busy on the weekend, but weekdays seem available nearly all the time. Camphost and maintenance folks were personable and active. Gas/quick shop 2 miles awayLouisville is 50 miles away. Love it here and will definitely look to stay again.

Great place to stay while hiking the Hoosier Forest. Facilities provided were quite nice and centrally located to the campsite.

@MatthewS683247 · Camped on Oct 3, 2025 at Campsite #32

I really like the campground and love the site we get. The people working at the entrance really love to stare you down when you come and go... Kinda like they are wanting to know where you're going?

@AlfredS9FFE1B9 · Camped on Sep 28, 2025

We just stayed 1 night as a layover, so we didn't get to experience much. But the campground was great, very easy access and well maintained.

@JohnW4841416 · Camped on Sep 26, 2025 at Campsite #21

Great secluded campground, very wooded with spacious campsites.

@BrianW1026295 · Camped on Sep 19, 2025 at Campsite #26

Very quiet campground. Lots of room between sites.

@BillK6985DA702 · Camped on Sep 14, 2025 at Campsite #18

This is a quiet campground with plenty of trees and plenty of space between sites. Clean and peaceful.

@KarenD6822172 · Camped on Sep 12, 2025 at Campsite #25

The campsites are very private feeling. Nice clean showers.

@AngelM79952370 · Camped on Aug 29, 2025 at Campsite #21

We loved this camp ground and site was great! Some spots on this site are slanted. Also watch out for poison ivy but overall wonderful experience would book again.

@CharlesG874789 · Camped on Aug 29, 2025 at Campsite #25

Great campground! Clean, quiet and the sites are spacious. Friendly staff. Highly recommend!

@RonaldF3467771 · Camped on Aug 22, 2025 at Campsite #27

Restroom/showers were nice and clean. Paved sites were ruff in need of replacing. Some site were very steep. Staff was very rude. Staff told us all other sites were reserved, when nobody ever showed up at many other sites. Only 3 other campers the whole weekend yet came looking for us when we were 7 minutes pass checkout time.

@BarryD92DD94F9 · Camped on Aug 8, 2025

We always enjoy our time at the park. We love the clean bathrooms and showers, the lakes are beautiful and the staff is so friendly and welcoming.

@KellyA4371808 · Camped on Aug 2, 2025 at Campsite #25

The dark haired lady at the check in booth was extremely rude. We vacated our camping site by the noon check out time and then went for a short hike. She tried to insist we pay another $8 fee for the day use. Nowhere was that stated in the booking email or the paper we were given at check in. She kept saying that the noon check out time should have let us know that we owed another $8 if we were anywhere on the property past noon. We stay at many state parks and that has not been the case there. I looked online after we left and see that this campground is run by a consessionair and not by the state. Love the campground but this might make us reconsider staying here again.

@SeanK6245487 · Camped on Jul 19, 2025 at Campsite #9

Went on a very hot weekend in July. Campground was well maintained. Campsite had great shade. Lots of poison ivy all around campground including around trees at camp site

@JamesR5751753 · Camped on Jul 11, 2025

My family and I love camping there and the Host of the North side and south side are some of the best people and hard working folks and I recommend this place for other Families

@ChristiJDA740B · Camped on Jul 6, 2025 at Campsite #8

It was very pretty! Great showers. Very quiet and peaceful. Difficult to fish from the bank of the lakes but we were directed to a pond and had a great time fishing there!

@MichaelM541440 · Camped on Jul 3, 2025

Nice quiet campground with spacious sites. Was really too hot for a lot of hiking. Looking forward to going again in cooler weather

@EricFD6663FB4E · Camped on Jun 26, 2025 at Campsite #27

The site and facilities were fine. No problems there. As a local who has camped there many times over the last twenty years I was a little frustrated with the current management company. The website advertising states "two cars per site max" which is what its always been for my entire life....but what they don't tell you is now you have to pay the day use fee for the second car for each day of the stay. Three day stay? That's an extra 24 dollars on top of the 92 paid for the site...just to have a second vehicle (non tow vehicle) in the same site you've already paid for in the campground you've already paid to be in. Historically, the second car was included with the camping fee. The current management company is hands down the worst I've seen in 20 years.It was a little frustrating the lack of flexibility too as we were canoeing the blue river one day and would arrive back about an hour after the noon check out. I was unable to attain a late (1~2 hours) so instead I had to pack my camper up at 445am to make the canoeing. Kind of silly to wake the whole place up packing up and hooking up at 445am when all I needed was an hour or two tops to return from canoeing to pack up. The site was *not* rented for that night so nobody was coming in. Just frustrating experience overall.

@JenniferK63850 · Camped on Jun 21, 2025 at Campsite #32

Very nice . Very good time

@JoshuaP5FAD69B · Camped on Jun 20, 2025 at Campsite #9

We love indian/celina lake. We take a couple of trips here every year. The site managers are friendly and very helpful. The campsites are clean. I would recommend this to everyone.

@MarshaS5838305 · Camped on Jun 19, 2025 at Campsite #8

I like and appreciate Indian Celina Lake campground being the small size that it is. The check-in process was quick and easy, and the campground and facilities were well maintained. It had been several years since I have stayed here, so I was disappointed, however in the condition of the campsites. Although they were well maintained, the once nicely paved areas are now crumbling and deteriorating. Makes parking and leveling a camper a little difficult. I also noted that there were fewer truly shady spots. Overall I was very pleased with the campground.The portion of the hiking trail we went on was maintained and clear. I cannot say this for the entire trail at Tipsaw Lake - it was overgrown and hard to travel.

@ChristalW983F4 · Camped on Jun 11, 2025 at Campsite #18

The sites were well sheltered. The bathroom was clean.

@ChazInSoCal - CA

I just used PerfectCamp.com to book six consecutive August nights at the most popular campsite in one of the most popular campgrounds in Humboldt Redwoods State Park in California. That is not anything I could have accomplished anywhere else with the ease I did here! Thank you, PerfectCamp! I LOVE this site! You will find me on several other camping sites but the design, format, functionality, and personality of this the best. It’s fresh and clean.

@Wondering - Oregon

Wow! Woke up this morning to a notification that a favorite had opened at Paulina, and when I went to check, it was there. This membership just paid for itself in the first 24 hours I owned it. Couldn't take the site it conflicted with a trip already set, but it truly was there. Thanks Tons.

@CarlaLThompson - Colorado
