I selected a pull through site out of convenience at the campground. The sites are numbered on the electrical boxes as well as on the parent- though the pavement is very faded and hard to see. I relied on the paper map & the electric box to find it. I arrived on a weekend and it was very packed with people. During Sunday people started leaving and it was a quieter experience. The washrooms and showers were located near by and were very clean. The showers were a bit older with some mould but I had shower sandals and really didn’t care. Good water temp and pressure. There are dump sites and water sites available. At check in staff was very friendly. You pay an extra park fee to stay here on top of the camp fee but it allows you access to the park itself. Trail access is off the camp loop I stayed at which was nice. Though it does add a few miles/kms to the suspension bridge and the hikes thereafter. Also of note- the hikes are certainly not a walk in the park and more moderate to challenging in nature. Wear supportive footwear that’s as non slip as possible. Paved sites at the campground that are fairly level. It would be a decent place during the week unless crowds are your thing. Photos don’t do it justice and while there’s many sites in the wide open sun, the ones tucked into the trees are gorgeous and shaded. Would recommend and would return.

Was there to camp and enjoy nature. Instead got the experience of awe and it brought out the child in me. Trails are challenging and yet just beautiful. So, much to see and experience. Camp sites have power, but no water. You have to carry your own in your rig or fill gallon jugs, but the water is good. The shower house is a hard mist with small stalls, but still very much doable. 2 spots to dump your tanks with a tank flush hook up. Gift store is quaint. There are horse rides available of which I didn't get to par take in, but there's always next time. If you enjoy canoes there not far from the at all from the park. I'll definitely be returning.

Turkey Run is a fabulous state park with a nice campground. My only complaint about the campground is that many sites are in an open, level area without a lot of trees or bushes between them. You don’t have a lot of privacy. Two sections of the campground, with the higher numbered sites, are much more wooded. If I go again, I will try to be there! But the campground has two large modern bathrooms that are cleaned regularly. It also has clean well maintained vault toilets throughout the campground. Best of all, from the back of the campground you can access Trail 7, a moderate level trail that leads unexpectedly to a small stream running past a recessed cave. It’s a peaceful spot. Be advised that a “moderate” hike at Turkey Run can be challenging, with plenty of steps up and down the hillsides. Many of the trails go along stream beds, so you often need to make your way across the rocks to avoid wet feet. Be prepared with hiking boots and sticks. There are two covered bridges on the edges of the park. Be sure to check them out!

We enjoyed a pleasant stay tent camping at Turkey Run State Park Campground, which provides free entry into beautiful Turkey Run State Park. Trail hiking was an adventure as our journey took us across the covered bridge. We plan to visit this campground annually.

This park blew me away. I was expecting a lot and it delivered that and then some. Hiking at this park is like hiking in another part of the country you would not think you're in Indiana at all. The campgrounds were very clean and accommodating. The trails were very well organized and marked. It was extremely muddy when I went but it didn't matter to me, I was having too much fun. I did not care. I highly recommend this park to anybody that wants an awesome hiking experience. Make sure to camp at Turkey Run. A+++
