24 RV Sites, 12 Tent Sites

Sixty-eight back-in sites span 30-amp, 50-amp, water-and-electric 30-amp, and water-and-electric categories, carrying water, sewer, and electric where noted, sized to 72 feet, with fire pits and picnic tables. Confirm your tier before booking, as the water-and-electric categories do not carry sewer at the site. Seventy-two feet is generous for the region. A general store, laundry, propane fills, dump station, restrooms, showers, and firewood handle the practical side. A water park and splash pad anchor the summer, with an outdoor pool alongside. The spring-fed lake is the property's centerpiece, with a beach, boat ramp, paddle boats, canoeing, kayaking, swimming, fishing, and scuba diving — the clarity of spring-fed water makes diving viable here in a way it simply is not on most Midwestern lakes. Basketball, volleyball, biking, golf cart rentals, and a playground fill the rest. Pets are welcome. New Paris sits in Preble County's western Ohio countryside, a few miles from the Indiana border and within comfortable driving range of Richmond, Dayton, Cincinnati, and Columbus.

The Graystone Ranch

2 Cabins, 2 Glamping Sites

The Graystone Ranch in Arcanum, Ohio, offers two cabins and two glamping sites on a 26-acre retreat with a lake and woodland setting in Darke County. A wedding and events venue, walking trails, and a recreation center serve guests looking for a quiet natural property rather than a conventional campground. Two cabins and two glamping sites make up the accommodations — this is a small, intentionally intimate property, so book well ahead rather than counting on availability. Restrooms and WiFi serve the grounds. Pets are welcome. The setting is the offering. A lake and pond sit on the property for fishing, swimming, and boating, with walking trails and hiking through the woodland and a recreation center for indoor hours. Birding is productive across the acreage, and planned activities run through the season. The ranch operates as a wedding and celebration venue as much as a campground, and the woodland-and-water backdrop is why — the natural scenery here is the product. Arcanum sits on OH-503 south of Greenville in western Ohio's agricultural plain, at the crossroads of the Great Miami River watershed in one of the state's most productive farming counties. The pastoral Darke County landscape surrounds the property on every side. The ranch serves the Ohio season, with spring through fall carrying both camping guests and the event calendar. Wedding dates book far in advance and can take the whole property, so check availability early — particularly for summer and fall weekends, when the woodland setting is at its best.

Lost Acres RV Park

72 RV Sites

Lost Acres RV Park in Monticello, Indiana, offers 72 full-hookup back-in RV sites within a half mile of Indiana Beach Amusement Park, with 30 and 50-amp service and rigs accepted to 40 feet. A renovated outdoor pool, mini-golf, disc golf course, craft room, and library sit under mature oaks in White County's lake district. Seventy-two back-in sites run in 30-amp and 50-amp categories, both carrying water, sewer, and electric, sized to 40 feet. Note the 40-foot cap before booking a larger rig. A general store, laundry, propane fills, restrooms, showers, and firewood handle the practical side. The office is open 9am to 5pm daily. A renovated outdoor pool anchors the summer, with mini-golf, a disc golf course, game room, arcade, clubhouse, craft room, library, billiards, basketball, volleyball, pickleball, corn hole, a pond for fishing, and a playground filling the grounds. Planned activities run through the season. The craft room and library are unusual finds at a park this size and give guests something to do on a rainy afternoon. Pets are welcome. The setting is distinctly Midwestern: wooded campsites under mature oaks, Lake Shafer and Lake Freeman a short walk away, and the rumble of Indiana Beach's roller coasters carrying across the water. The amusement park is a half mile off, which makes this practical for families who want to walk rather than drive and park. Summer is decisively the season, tracking the amusement park's operating calendar. Reserve well ahead for June through August weekends.

Eby’s Pines RV Park & Campground

Bristol, Indiana, sits at the heart of the largest Amish settlement in the United States, a patchwork of farms, roadside stands, and back-country lanes where horse-drawn buggies outnumber cars on many township roads. Eby's Pines RV Park & Campground has been welcoming guests to this corner of Elkhart County since 1968, growing over more than five decades into a 40-acre property with more than 300 sites along the banks of the Little Elkhart River. The combination of a well-established campground, genuine Amish Country immersion, and one of the Midwest's most fascinating flea markets on the doorstep makes Eby's Pines a perennial return destination for Indiana travelers. The 40-acre property accommodates more than 300 sites ranging from full-hookup RV pads to tent sites and various hook-up configurations, with the Little Elkhart River running along the property boundary and providing a natural backdrop to sites positioned on the eastern edge. Pull-through sites and big-rig-friendly pads handle the largest diesel pushers, while interior sites among the pines give tent campers genuine shade and separation. The campground's mature tree canopy, the result of more than 55 years of establishment, distinguishes the property from newer developments where shade is still years away from developing. Two swimming pools handle the summer heat for families with children, and a stocked fishing pond gives young anglers an easy first fishing experience without the variables of moving water. Pickleball courts have joined the recreational offerings in recent years, reflecting the game's surge in popularity, and the Little Elkhart River provides flatwater canoeing and casual fishing for those willing to wet a line in the gentle current. The campground's general store, laundry facilities, and bathhouses support comfortable multi-night stays, and the property's overall scale means guests can find quiet corners away from the more active recreational areas. Jarisa's Fun Zone, immediately across the road from the campground, adds go-karts, miniature golf, and arcade games in a location that requires nothing more than crossing the street. Shipshewana, four miles east, is home to the Shipshewana Flea Market — one of the largest outdoor markets in the Midwest, operating Tuesdays and Wednesdays from May through October with more than 900 vendors selling antiques, produce, crafts, and an enormous range of goods. The surrounding Indiana Amish Country offers quilt shops, furniture makers, bakeries, and farm stands throughout Elkhart and LaGrange counties, and the pace of exploration suits both a single afternoon and a multi-day structured tour. The campground operates May through October, with summer weekends and the Shipshewana Flea Market season driving the heaviest demand. The Tuesday-Wednesday market schedule rewards mid-week stays, as the markets close on weekends — a useful piece of information for guests who want to time their visit for both camping and shopping. Fall brings harvest-season activity to the Amish farms and a golden quality to the light that makes the agricultural landscape unusually beautiful. The campground's established trees color well in October, and the season's end in late fall is preceded by several weeks of particularly quiet, pleasant weather. Reserve early for summer holiday weekends, which fill well ahead of season.
