Plenty of walking trails, the summer offers a huge pool and some sad looking tennis courts. Camping available with newly added row of full hook ups ( worth the extra money). There is an inn and a restaurant on site too.

Spring Mill State Park is a 1,358-acre state park located about two hours south of Indy and about…read morethree miles east of Mitchell on SR 60. It was established in 1927. The park includes Pioneer Village, the Gus Grissom Memorial, a nature center, campgrounds, cycling lanes, and it also has a tennis court and a basketball court. Pioneer Village and Grissom Memorial are interpretive facilities. There's also Lakeview Activity Center and a Twin Caves Boat Tour. Spring Mill has programs throughout the year. Spring Mill Inn has 71 rooms, though I didn't stay overnight and can't review the Inn. I do know that the inn offers free wireless, a splash pad, a restaurant (The Millstone Dining Room), a complimentary coffee/tea station (24 hours), a game room, a gift shop featuring Indiana products (24 hours), satellite TV/DVD players, and the inn has an ATM. Like all Indiana state parks now, Spring Mill offers a motorized chair that can handle at least some of its trails for those with mobility issues. There are seven trails plus a two-mile mountain bike trail and a "stagecoach" trail. Trails range from accessible to easy to rugged. The majority of the trails are considered moderate. The trails range from 1/4 mile long up to 2.5 miles. There are some gorgeous trails here including a couple of lakes and caves - Donaldson Cave is terrific, the Twin Caves are great, and for those who like older cemeteries I recommend a stop at Hamer Cemetery. Spring Mill State Park is certainly not the most accessible of our state parks, however, it is a terrific place to camp for those who like it a little rougher. The Inn is a terrific option for those who prefer the indoor experience. In terms of the wheelchair, contacting the park in advance is typically recommended to make sure it's available. The best way to enjoy Indiana Parks is with an annual pass (seniors/military discounts), however, single-use entry is also an option.

They eliminated pads to make the places more roomy... concrete pads are new, flat, and huge. Blackstone grills, nice fire pits with chairs, nice tables with chairs and umbrellas...

We've stayed at places costing almost twice this that were not nearly as nice. We've stayed at dozens and dozens of places.

I used to come to Otter Creek when I was younger and it is such a beautiful area, but it has not…read morebeen well maintained as of recent. I came to hike last weekend and opted for the valley overlook trail. It seemed as though no one had hiked it in weeks with how many cob webs I walked through lol. It was EXTREMELY overgrown to the point that I stopped and considered just going back instead of finishing the loop multiple times. There were a good amount of trees that I had to climb over/under as well. I was wearing leggings and long socks (on me for not wearing a better material, but I got these leaves stuck all over my legs and now have chigger bites everywhere after wading through an overgrown field. Safe to say I won't be back anytime soon.

It's pristine, clean, decent and clean restrooms (when they get around to adding the TP), and although the roads are in bad shape in many places, it's a fine spot for forest bathing. Your cellphone might not work in some parts of it. Put it away. If you simply must, go to the top of most hills. There are no gas stations or stores within ten miles in any direction; bring the stuff you need for your visit. In the summer, the amount of oxygen you can get here is almost overwhelmingly delicious. There are playgrounds, picnic tables, and shelters, and hundreds of places for a picnic on a blanket/rug. There are insects; remember your bug spray and tick repellent. Enjoy. It's FREE.

In the last few years, a nice bike trail has been paved in and a new office built. There are also backcountry camping sites for primitive camping-be site to check in and practice leave no trace! The park does not have a lot of state park like amenities so be prepared to use a pit toilet. Bring your own tp and hand sanitizer just in case! The hikes are fairly challenging due to length and have some good hills. Bring plenty of water and keep an eye out for wildlife. Rattlesnakes have been spotted in the area. Hunting is also allowed in the state forest so wear bright colors at all times just in case. If you're looking for a challenging hike that is not overly populated but not totally isolated Morgan Monroe State Forest is an excellent choice.

We've stayed there for weekends and short stays in a slew of different campers and RVs, as well as coming for day trips where we would set up a cookout at the reservable building across from the swimming beach. My papaw and I would then go down the nearby ramp to fish. Enjoyed it every time. Considering taking the wife and camper up there from Kentucky this October for our anniversary, let her see where a lot of my childhood was. Will update with photos, etc if we do go.

The campgrounds are excellent, especially Taylor Ridge. But be aware that you need to make reservations ahead of time, especially if you are planning a fall camping trip. Campsites sell out early. Shower rooms are decent, not wonderful. But satisfactory for a campground. Quiet hours are strictly observed, and the park rangers will pay a visit to your campsite if you aren't quiet after 10:00 pm Once we received a visit from a friendly park ranger when we were playing cards around 11 pm. We hadn't realized that we were being noisy at all but the ranger advised us that sound carries throughout the campground. Hiking trails range from easy to moderate. Trail maps are available are the trails are well marked. You will likely see deer and raccoons when hiking the trails. Some members of our group enjoy mountain biking too.

Midwest Trail Ride is one of my favorite places to go horse camping. Midwest has electric sites,…read morecabins, and primitive camping. They have plenty of stalls for the horses of their patrons, and they provide all the needed amenities necessary for horse campers. What's nice about Midwest versus regular camping is that it is really set up for horseback riders, and they make it very convenient to bring your horse and trailer. My wife and I have visited Midwest annually since she got me into horses and we have not had a bad visit. With Midwest being on the edge of Hoosier National Forest, you have no shortage of trails to ride. The Midwest trails are well maintained, better maintained than in the national forest in fact. Best part of visiting: no cell phone signal. You are in a nice quiet place you can relax and enjoy yourself without the stress of the outside world.

I had the privilege of meeting the wonderful folks who started MTR. What wonderful people. I remained impressed as the business changed hands. However, the current management has a lot to learn when it comes to how to treat the people who pay their hard earned money to travel and stay there. I was unpleasantly surprised at how rudely I was asked to move my rig. Courtesy goes a long way with me. Just be polite and remember --we are the customers. I have spent a lot of money in their tack store and have been a weekend and day rider as well. The people who run it now need to remember that they are not the only access point into Hoosier National Forest. Sadly this will be my last visit. I have absolutely loved meeting horse campers from all around....it's just the disrespectful and rude treatment from the female manager/owner that has convinced me to go elsewhere.
