I have never been camping. It was just never something my family did. My husband apparently camped…read moreall the time growing up. He kept telling me how much fun he had as a child. I was intruigued, and so we decided to try camping. Whenever we decide to have adventures like this, it is up to me to find the spot. I chose HIckory Hills based on the cost. There wasn't much in the way of pictures, and I wasn't really sure what to look for. We didn't want to 'rough it' too much. I am sort of prissy, and what if I didn't like it? We ended up renting one of their cabins. The cabin had pretty much every amenity of a house. Shower, bathroom, kitchen, full size fridge. It was really nice. We saw quite a few people coming and going on golf carts. From what I can gather, a lot of people in campers stay there year round. It was really quiet the entire time we were there. No loud music, no parties where we were at. They are on well water and it reeked of sulphur. There is a food truck type of thing that opens on the weekend. We ate breakfast there once, and it was okay. Nothing to write home about. I really enjoyed staying here though.

Stayed here for work last year for two months worse place I stayed at book for two months and they…read morekicked me out the next month and made me move to a different lot because someone made a mistake in booking me a overnight lot and when we tried talking to them, they blamed us and not the staff and threatening to kick me out when talking to the locals, neither one of them had any good to say about the owner

Lieber state park was a great spot for camping. The online reservation system made it a little…read moredifficult to picture where our campsite was going to be in relation to shade and trees, but the one we ended up getting was just fine! They have a great camp store where we bought our firewood, nice beach, a really great shaded walking trail, and a lovely place to spend a morning- the Cataract falls! There was one incident of a camper next to us getting roudy, loud, and drunk, but the rangers came and talked him down. This made us feel safe. It was reasonably priced. On the drive to cataract falls (about a 20 minute drive) there is a lovely ice cream shop in an old school house- perfect for an afternoon treat after doing some hiking along the river. Bring bug spray, sunscreen, and your swimsuit as there is plenty to do outdoors! Your admission to Lieber state park also gets you into cataract falls for the entire duration of your stay, which is really helpful. There are out toilets but there are also nicer, regular toilets with sinks and showers. They were fairly clean, just a bit more of a walk from our campsite. But it was worth it!

We didn't like it the first time ( it was a Holiday weekend and was pretty packed) but we just gave…read moreit another chance and we really enjoyed. It was quite and just a few people, nice and clean warm water, really fun for kids, safe and spacious. The park is big, really nice picnic area with a lot of trees and nature. Camping area is really big too and looked organized, also the park was very clean, the shelters spacious and good. Overall everything this time was better that our first time. If you're trying to relax and enjoy a full day or weekend away from the city it's a great option.

Our favorite state park in Indiana. My friends and I camp here for a four day weekend at least…read moreonce a year, and sometimes visit for just a day hiking trip and picnic. The campgrounds are excellent, especially Taylor Ridge. But be aware that you need to make reservations ahead of time, especially if you are planning a fall camping trip. Campsites sell out early. Shower rooms are decent, not wonderful. But satisfactory for a campground. Quiet hours are strictly observed, and the park rangers will pay a visit to your campsite if you aren't quiet after 10:00 pm Once we received a visit from a friendly park ranger when we were playing cards around 11 pm. We hadn't realized that we were being noisy at all but the ranger advised us that sound carries throughout the campground. Hiking trails range from easy to moderate. Trail maps are available are the trails are well marked. You will likely see deer and raccoons when hiking the trails. Some members of our group enjoy mountain biking too.

Love the mountain bike trails. They have trails from beginner to advanced so there is something for…read moreeveryone. Love the very large campgrounds. The only bad I would have to say is twice while staying at the campground the power went out. I do NOT! Recommend staying at the INN, Abr Martin Lodge. It needs a major renovation. The air was out in all 5 rooms they tried to put us in. The beds needed a major cleaning. Two were pee stained sheets. The last had dead bugs. The overlooks throughout the park are breathtaking. A definite visit at sunset or sunrise.

When you're polite to someone, it goes a really long way in customer service…read more We made a mistake and booked a campsite for the wrong day. They do not answer their phones and their policy says you must talk to the office for a cancellation. I called several days with no ability to speak with anyone. We did however book our tubing trip for the correct day. When we arrived we tried kindly explaining to the woman our situation. She was immediately combative and argumentative. She immediately went in defense mode. It was incredibly unprofessional and abrasive. We understand we made a mistake however we didn't deserve to be treated that way. Naturally we firmly and persistently argued back as we were approached in such a manner. Ultimately she did end up refunding us (allegedly - we did not receive it yet. But did get confirmation email we were refunded) but it was after a long awkward argument for really no reason. If the woman at the front office was polite from the get go we would have had a much better experience. The gentlemen who ran the tubing, said his name was Kim. He was very kind and professional. I would give this place another go because of his efforts in trying to make the situation more comfortable.
