Indian Point RV Park

29 RV Sites

Indian Point RV Park in Eddyville, Kentucky, offers 29 RV sites with 20, 30, and 50-amp service and rigs accepted to 40 feet.

Cabins round out the lodging. A general store, laundry, propane fills and exchange, dump station, restrooms, boat storage, and a recreation center handle the practical side.

Sleeping Bear Retreat

1 RV Site, 4 Tent Sites

Sleeping Bear Retreat near French Lick, Indiana, offers 1 water-and-electric 20-amp RV site and four tent sites across more than 60 acres of mature woodland, with rigs accepted to 20 feet. A disc golf course, pond, walking trails, and community fire pit serve a quiet retreat in the southern Indiana hill country. The RV site is water-and-electric on 20-amp, sized to 20 feet, with a fire pit and picnic table. The retreat is direct about this: they offer small camper sites only, for rigs up to 20 feet, and no large RV sites. Plan accordingly — this suits vans, teardrops, and small trailers, and nothing bigger. The sites carry water and electric rather than sewer, with a dump station on site. Four tent sites round out the lodging. A dump station, restrooms, and showers handle the practical side. A disc golf course, pond, walking trails, sports courts, volleyball, community fire pit, and firewood fill the grounds, with fishing, hiking, biking, and productive birding. Planned activities run through the season, and a golf course is nearby. Pets are welcome. Sixty acres of mature woodland for a handful of sites is the entire proposition — genuine quiet and space rather than a numbered pad. Orange County holds an unusual combination. French Lick and West Baden Springs are historic mineral spring resorts with grand hotels — the West Baden atrium was once called the eighth wonder of the world — alongside the Hoosier National Forest's hiking, Patoka Lake, and one of the darkest night skies in Indiana. Spring and fall are most comfortable. Reserve ahead, and check your rig against the 20-foot limit.

Indian Camp Campground

25 RV Sites

Indian Camp Campground in Arlington, Kentucky, offers 25 RV sites in the extreme western Purchase Region, with 30 and 50-amp water-and-electric service and rigs accepted up to 90 feet. Back-in, pull-in, and pull-through categories join a general store, playground, showers, and firewood, open all year. Twenty-five sites run in back-in, pull-in, and pull-thru categories, carrying water and electric on 30 and 50-amp, sized to 90 feet, with picnic tables. Plan around the hookups — sites carry water and electric but not sewer, so manage tank capacity and use the dump station. Ninety feet is exceptional capacity for a park this size and accommodates anything on the road with room to spare. Three configurations cover most arrival preferences. A general store, dump station, restrooms, showers, and firewood handle the practical side. A playground fills the grounds, with a river nearby, offroading close, and a state park within reach. The amenity set is deliberately spare, which keeps rates low and suits a quiet rural property. Pets are welcome. Arlington sits in the far western tip of Kentucky, one of the least visited but most historically and ecologically interesting corners of the Commonwealth. The Mississippi River's alluvial landscape defines it — Columbus-Belmont State Park's Civil War earthworks overlook the river, the Reelfoot Lake area formed by the New Madrid earthquakes is close, and the confluence of the Ohio and Mississippi at Wickliffe draws serious birders and history travelers. Spring and fall bring the most comfortable conditions and the best birding along the Mississippi flyway. Demand runs steadily rather than seasonally. Reserve ahead for holiday weekends.

A marina and boat ramp open the lake for boating, with an outdoor pool, game room, pavilion, dog park, swimming, and picnicking filling the rest. Wine and beer tasting is nearby. Pets are welcome.
