The camp ground is well run by a group of conscientious volunteers who truly care for the facility and the campers. they are polite and very willing to be of assistance if needed. The bathroom facilities are clean and well stocked. this was our 2nd time at Standing Indian and we do plan to come back!! Thank you guys!

Standing Indian is always a treat. Leave the phones at home and relax with the sounds of nature. Its a super great reset.

Wonderful, clean, well-spaced campsites in a lovely location. Bathrooms were spotless and hosts were very helpful. Definitely one of my favorites.

I've been going to Standing Indian Campground for years. I grew up nearby and it has always been special to me. To be honest, I think it's one of the few hidden gems left in our area. The grounds and facilities are well-maintained, it's clean, the people are friendly, and you can't beat the location. Conveniently located just outside of Franklin, this makes it perfect for those who may be new to camping, want the camping/outdoors experience, but aren't quite up for venturing off too far just yet. It really has everything. Spend enough time there and you'll soon realize, people are like family up there. It's a hotspot for locals, and I believe that's one of the things that makes it so wonderful. The people in the area have really done a good job at making sure it lasts for generations to come. About the only thing not "up to date" is cell-service, but to me, that's an added bonus because I don't have to worry about my phone. Do yourself a favor a checkout Standing Indian. Spend sometime hiking around the trails, swim in the creek, get to know the camp hosts (and the other locals who spend summers there), and who knows, if you're lucky, you might even see some wildlife!

Absolutely great place in which to enjoy a fall color season.

Very quiet and peaceful. No cell service!! It’s one of the nicest things about this place.

Love the campground and the people working there. Bathrooms very clean always.
Only concern is large dead tree over campsite #16 where we were. It was there last year.
The firewood is always green and hard to burn even when split many times.
Have been many times to this campground and will be going back.

Camp Ground was clean and well kept. Two very lovely water falls not far. And lots of trails, well maintained for the most part.
