Another great Indiana state park. Clean, well-maintained. Great hiking and pioneer village. The restaurant at the inn is also good. Internet is the absolute worst, so hard for us to work while camping. Busy but quiet. Like most Indiana state parks the public bathrooms need some major work.

Great campsite, people were friendly and the grounds and facilities were clean. The State Oark offers so much in the way of history, hiking, and the Inn.

Spent 2 nights here. Too early in the season for water to be turned on. They had a full station for fresh water tanks on the way in. Camp store was closed. Had to get fire wood from a guy selling in town (Mitchell). 30 amp hookup. Cellular signal not really reliable enough to be useful. Nice trails in the park. And the pioneer village ... more
Spent 2 nights here. Too early in the season for water to be turned on. They had a full station for fresh water tanks on the way in. Camp store was closed. Had to get fire wood from a guy selling in town (Mitchell). 30 amp hookup. Cellular signal not really reliable enough to be useful. Nice trails in the park. And the pioneer village was really cool. If you’re a space nut the park also has a memorial to Gus Grissom which is where his Gemini space capsule is located. I would come again but on weekends only because I need cellular for work.

Needed a place for one night as we drove through Indiana. Couldn’t use reservation system online or over phone for walk up or same day. Had to find a spot and then walk back to the entrance to pay. Still charging $30 a night even thought it’s November and all the other Indiana state parks we stayed at last week charged only $15. ... more
Needed a place for one night as we drove through Indiana. Couldn’t use reservation system online or over phone for walk up or same day.
Had to find a spot and then walk back to the entrance to pay.
Still charging $30 a night even thought it’s November and all the other Indiana state parks we stayed at last week charged only $15.
Bathhouse could definitely use some updating and not the cleanest either (surprising given COVID).
Some sites are better than others and bring extra water hose length as water is spread out and shared between 2-3 sites.
Struggled with AT&T cell/internet at our site. Walked the whole campgrounds and service was unavailable in most locations.

Spring Mill SP is a large property with a good diversity of activities for a longer stay. This summer coronavirus has the pool closed and some facilities And activities limited. However, the campground is beautiful with varied sites under thick forest cover to sunny exposed. The changing elevations in southern Indiana are nice to look at but require levelers at virtually every site. Check your hose length against water distance for full hookups... the water spigots are located between the generously sized sites so we ended up hand hauling water in storage containers. If you don’t like our workaround, we did notice plenty of extra hoses were in stock at the camp store! A resident skunk (thankfully not a nervous one) wandered through the campground at dark. Good entertainment listening to folks alerting their neighbors. Skies are dark for telescopes, and the rustic sites are relatively close to a bathhouse. Plenty of miles for road biking and a shorter mountain bike trail. Check out the historic village, astronaut memorial museum, and virgin forest with huge trees.
