    A beautiful state park. Gorgeous fall colors and many areas to enjoy and explore. Hiking trails, cabins for rent, canoeing, camping and other wonderful outdoor activities. Enjoy a day in the park or stay there in a cabin or in your RV. A must visit in southern Indiana!

    Beautiful park just past the town of Jasonville. 3 lakes for fishing, boating, & hikes. Very nice shelters. We'll be back! 😀

    Park is beautiful, lots to do. We stayed at the campground. Bath house was great. Some sites get flooded after a rain but are spacious. Be careful if you are trying to book sites back to back with others bc the map is incorrect. Otherwise park was quiet. The walkway to the fishing pier had fallen and no one fixed it, was kind of disappointing was walking distance for the campers.

    I loved the pool, but I would not recommend the slide that shoots you down into the deep end of the pool. Unless you're a good swimmer you'll be fearing for your life. Or, maybe I'm just someone who doesn't know a thing or two about swimming and how floating in water works. I was struggling and I'm sure the lifeguards were eyeing me real hard, seconds away from jumping in. Luckily, that didn't happen, I swam to the edge, got out, and I stayed above 5ft after that. But the big slide? Went down that tons of times. It's smooth, unless you go too fast then you'll feel one small bump near the end, but most of the time you're fine. Won't leave you any cuts or bruises or anything. I also like the dandelion shower lookin thing, it's cold but fun to sit in. The pool also got closed temporarily for like 15 minutes, no clue why, it was a "safety check" but they didn't seem to be doing much. Although, I don't know a thing or two about swimming pool safety guidelines either. During the "safety check" I was hungry, and I got a hotdog. There was no ketchup though! I used their salsa packets instead and honestly it wasn't even that bad.. The overall park, I can't say much about because I only really went there for the pool. I will say though, it's pretty nice I think.

    This is a nice little state park. Its was not crowded and has nice hiking trails. We hiked the ones surrounding the lakes and had beautiful views of the water, boats and wildlife. It was very relaxing and a good way to get away from stress.

    We had a great camping trip here. The campground had a lot of good spots and large trees. The facilities were well managed and staff was very nice. We hiked several trails and particularly enjoyed Trail 1 as it goes around the lake shore line.

    This park is probably my new favorite Indiana State Park. The water views are GORGEOUS. The campground is actually in the woods, not just a clear cut field which I feel defeats the purpose of camping. All the bath houses and pit toilets were really nice and clean.
