I showed up here tired and worn out while riding the GIT. This is more of a place for RVs but she had a place for me to set up a tent and take a hot shower. I also took her recommendation for pizza and was not disappointed.

When we arrived the sweetest lady offered my kids some otter pops. Then escorted us to a beautiful pull through right by the park. My kids loved the park and catching fireflies by the corn field at night. It was so quiet and peaceful for being so close to the freeway. We stayed just a night but would have stayed more if we weren’t on a timeline. The park is very spacious, and the sites are spread out. Next to a canal and walking/biking trail we enjoyed stretching our legs out on a gorgeous walk. Will be back next time we drive through.

Hickory Grove is an absolutely lovely campground! The sites are generous & the grounds are extremely well kept. This is a HUGE property that winds through the trees, I highly recommend taking a walk through to see it all. While most of the lots are seasonal, all are immaculate & you can really tell that everyone takes pride in their piece of this oasis!
We were originally booked to stay 4 nights but extended 1 more. The day we arrived, our little cat escaped from our RV. We looked around for her for days and finally decided to make flyers & let the community know to keep an eye out for her. When I brought a flyer to the office, Joan didn’t just agree to hang it and watch for her, she contacted local animal control to arrange for me to borrow a live trap to help catch our girl. Next, Joan asked one of the seasonal residents (thank you Will & Carol!) to bring some of their live traps to give us a better chance of bringing her home. After 2 nights of traps, we were successful & were able to continue our adventure with our family intact! This isn’t just a lovely campground, Joan & Dave have created an incredible community and I cannot recommend them enough.

Stayed from 7/24/21 - 7/31/21. Can't remember what site but everything is very spread out here with level gravel pads and tons of grass.

Stayed from 7/24/21 - 7/31/21. Can't remember what site but everything is very spread out here with level gravel pads and tons of grass. Had more space here than any other campground I've ever been to. Rates are reasonable but do not include electric ($0.25 per kw). Most sites are very shaded as well, with lots of huge hickory trees. Virtually no road noise and easy access from the highway.
Owners are extremely friendly and helpful. Got chauffered to two sites on hold cart so I could choose which I liked better. Majority of the grounds seemed to be seasonal, and I didn't see many people during my stay.
Campground is on the canal which is good for kayaking and the fishing isn't too bad either. Also a nice flat trail for walking/biking along the canal.
Town of Princeton is small but nice, about 25 mins away. Has Walmart and grocery store, and for craft beer/whiskey drinkers the Barrel society bar is your place, lots of very good selections.
Att on the peplink was good download (20+ mb) but upload was terrible (2-3 mb). TMobile was better at 20 mb down and 5+mb up.
Overall really enjoyed my stay here and would definitely come back.

There are seasonal campers here but all of the campers and sites were well-maintained. We would definitely stay here again. Good value for $40! We drove to Ronald Reagan’s birth town and visited the free museum which was fun.

The campground is right off the canal which made for easy access to the trail. The campground was well maintained, very pretty, reasonably priced with great hosts. We couldn’t ask for more and even the weather cooperated Great Experience!

We spent the night here on our return trip back to Ohio while vacationing out west. This campground will not allow campers to check in after 9pm.
Our site was nice and the grounds were wonderful. However, despite being told to run the water to clear out sediments, we still had a light brownish red water running into the camper. No smell to the water, just a cloudy appearance. The campground owner/host was very nice to deal with and we were escorted via golf cart to our campsite. We had a very pleasant experience and I would stay here again.

We stopped here as an overnight stop from ohio to the badlands. It is not far from the highway but has a middle of no where feel. Walking around the park it seems to be mostly seasonal sights with some spots for overnighters. I had reserved the spot months in advanced and had asked for a pull through but the owner said she could not promise a certain spot. When we arrived though we were escorted to a pull through full hook up site, which was a nice surprise. There is also access to a very nice canal path that is great to stretch your legs, take the pups for a walk or take a bike ride. we used our trailer bathroom so that was not something I can address. Overall this place fit our needs nicely. We even had cell service and TV reception!

Hope we can come back & stay longer because this is a beautiful campground with large trees, and wide open spaces...campers are not stacked next to each other like so many others are. Seems like a friendly family owned campground....could use a larger playground for kids, but they do have a nice small one. Very enjoyable stay....just too short!

Stayed one night here on our way out West. Picture perfect surrounding and very friendly neighbours and staff. Tonnes of room for our tent we were the only ones in the tent area. Also CHEAP just $17 a night for an unpowered site one of the cheapest we have had so far. Plenty to walk around and see if you are just here for a night.
