Sites: All the sites at this campground seem to be good sized - room for kids and pets. Many of the campers this weekend had at least 1 dog with them. There are large trees on just about every site giving ample shade - great for summer camping, not so much for fall when you want to see the sun a little bit more! There is a horseman's camp, which had many campers this weekend. There is also a recreational building for rent as well as a youth tent area and a canoe camp. Many options!
Facilities: The restrooms were decent. The showers were large but were the push-button type that only stay on for about 20 seconds at a time. The stalls had been updated with nice wooden doors instead of the standard. There were no soap dispensers.
Activities: There are LOTS of trails for hiking/biking that were well marked.
There is a Nature Center that's not near as nice as some we've seen, although there were lots of activities planned throughout the weekend for children.
Most that were there while we were there either had their own canoe or rented one sometime over the weekend. Great river for enjoying a nice, leisurely canoe ride. Fishing would also be a great option, although while we were there, the river was quite low, so we didn't attempt it.
While you are there, be sure to climb the fire tower for great views. I get a *little* uncomfortable at these heights. (Notice I'm holding onto the rails on both sides!)
This was a great park to visit over a holiday weekend, because we had plenty of time to do the things we wanted to do, but still have time for playing games and enjoying each other as a family at the campsite. It's nice when we go without another family because we don't have an "agenda" and we can just relax and spend time together. We played many games throughout the weekend and spent some time shopping at Bailey's (discount store) in North Judson.
On a scale of 1 to 10, I would place this park at a 10. And I think one of our next purchases might be a canoe!
