Tori Jane is a storm chaser, writer, photographer, and the village idiot - in that order. When she's not out and about dancing with the meanest storms on planet Earth for funsies she can be found wandering, shooting landscapes, writing, editing photos, and otherwise up to no good. Legend has it that she can also be occasionally spotted typing up short bios in the third person, but those rumors are unsubstantiated.
Camping in Indiana is one of the downright coolest things you can do in the Midwest. Truly – the Hoosier State does NOT get the credit it’s due when it comes to adventures outdoors. With 24 beautiful state parks all with their own campgrounds plus hundreds of additional campgrounds outside of our state parks, it can feel a little overwhelming to figure out where to begin. I have a suggestion for anyone looking to make their camping trip a truly memorable experience: check out the campground near Boonville, Indiana, which might also be the best in all of Warrick County.
The lake offers a nice place to cool off when it's warm (or to snuggle up to when it's cold). There's also a huge waterslide open from Memorial Day weekend until August. Fun stuff!

Of course, the awesome camping is the real star of the show here, with spots for everyone no matter what their needs may be.
There are extra-large RV spots, tent-pitchin' spots, and spots with electricity and water. No matter what you're hoping to accomplish during your stay, you'll accomplish it surrounded by convenience - and Indiana's beautiful outdoors.
It's a magical time of day and few people will be awake for sunrise, so you might get it all to yourself in a way. Might as well enjoy it!
