Primitive Camping

The park has a lot of primitive camp sites.  You will need a reservation 48 hours prior to arrival in order to camp.  Please call 812-338-3846 for your reservation.  All reservations are timed from the time of that call.  You must arrive between the hours of 8:00 AM Eastern Daylight Time and before 8:30PM Eastern Daylight time.

Firewood is furnished free for all camping.  Firepits are already made but you may bring a grill if you prefer .  Keep in mind that there are times that the making of any fire may be prohibited due to dry weather. 

When you arrive with a reservation proceed into the park and choose your spot in either Camp Granada,  or Camp Timberlake. (Camp Run-A-Muck will open sometime in 2007).  Unless the area is marked as reserved for a group you may go ahead with your setup without checking with anyone.  A park attendant will come around and verify your reservation and provide you with a copy of the park procedures.  The attendant will find you. 

Port-a-potties are scattered throughout the park but modern restrooms and showers are available.
