GenieSummary

What others are saying about this campground
Mounds State Park is a great spot for a family trip or weekend getaway. Located in Chesterfield, Indiana, the park is small but has a lot to offer in terms of historical, geographical, and natural information. Camping is affordable at just $37 for the first night and $30 thereafter. The sites are paved but narrow, and there is a rail line nearby that can be noisy at times. There is a charming camp store with a hummingbird feeder, and plenty of trails to explore. The park also has a nature center with common snakes and turtles, a rocky beach for kids to play in the river, and a swimming pool. The campground is well maintained, with wide and open sites, good fire rings and cooking grates, and clean bathrooms. The roads are narrow, making it difficult to maneuver a larger rig, and there is little wind protection. There is also a small municipal airport nearby, so there can be some noise from planes. The showers have limited hot water, and the train traffic can be high during the night.
