Weekend Trip to Cattail Springs

I had a great experience at The Hollow at Cattail Springs! I was the only one onsite during my time there, so I had the whole place available to me. There was plenty of firewood so the fire stayed hot, I had complete access to the pond, and I had ample time of solitude which I was after. I couldn't recommend booking through Cole enough! He was there waiting for me when I arrived and was like talking to someone I had known for a long time. Thanks for the hospitality!

The grape escape fulfilled my wanderlust garden fairy needs. The sleeping accommodations were magical and cozy, provided with just the right amount of fairy lights and very fitting reading material. The outdoor kitchen was also accommodating, I didn’t need to pack much which was extra appreciated. This cozy little tucked in camping spot had fun trinkets and treasures inside the site itself and along the hiking areas. I spent most of my time in the hammock by the fire, which is heaven to me. ◡̈

My fiancée and I loved our weekend getaway at Nichole’s site. She was very welcoming & gave us a tour of the camp site. The area was very clean & was a perfect spot for us to disconnect from the city life. She even offered the river tubing ride which we also HIGHLY recommend. It was definitely the highlight of our trip. Nicole was also very quick on her responses and helped us with the questions we had. We will definitely visit again & we recommend this stay 👍🏼💚🌳

Angela’s property and the Fairytale Campsite were absolutely amazing! If you are looking for a quiet camping experience tucked in the woods with lots of privacy this is the place for you. The small hidden details all over the trails were amazing and I walked those trails 6 or 7 times and each time found something new. The time and commitment these owners have put into this place is mind blowing and made for a truly fairytale getaway. Be advised there is no electricity at this site so I would say that is the only downfall. 10/10 would recommend and will be going back again,

This place is absolutely gorgeous! My family and I had the best weekend camping here. It’s so magical with all the special touches that made it feel like you are in a fairyland. The Gnome Village was a huge hit with my two girls and they played there every day. There are many trails to explore and Angela and her daughter made our stay as comfortable as possible with quick responses to all of our questions and providing everything we needed to have a fantastic weekend. My girls also had horseback riding lessons with Angela and it was the highlight of the trip for them. Being surrounded by candles at night made it even more enchanting, we just loved all the care that was put into this place! I highly recommend staying here with your family or friends!

One of the best Hipcamp experiences so far! Spacious camp spot with stunning views at the river. Feels really secluded, in the same time you are steps away from the facilities and swimming pool. Also, I didn’t have any issues with bugs and mosquitoes despite being among trees close to the river.

This is such a great cozy campsite that is really comfortable with so much attention to detail. My wife and I booked this for our anniversary and it was perfect. the fire pit and cooking area (with working stove) made cooking easy, the sleeping cabin/tent was so comfortable and great, and there were so many small elements that went above and beyond. Would absolutely stay here again!

The landscape here is beautiful. Lots of wetland life. This particular campsite is great for car and tent camping. Easy in easy out. Near toilet. One side is small rocks the other side is soil. The soil can become mud with heavy rain but as Cole and Janel further develop their camp each week it’s getting better and better. They put lots of passion into their work and are super great hosts. The week I was there they were installing a stream that runs from the top of the hill to the pond. What a cool feature and this will help mask the sound of the highway.

Weekend Trip to Cattail Springs

This is my new favorite camping spot in Indiana!! It's a quiet, hidden little gem. Our camping spot, The Hollow, was nestled between a couple other spots but there was so much room and privacy away from others, and each spot is settled around a really nice pond where you can fish or take a nice walk around. No electricity or running water, so there's no shower which would be a nice addition but we don't mind either way. The owner welcomed us upon arrival and was so kind and welcoming. We would have stayed there all week if we could have! 10/10 totally recommend!!

Weekend Trip to Cattail Springs

The Campsites are in a very peaceful location, by a placid lake surrounded by the shade of a forest. It’s close to nature. I went to sleep to a chorus of bullfrogs croaking woke up to a choir of birds singing to the rising sun. The Campground at the State Park was full, but Cattail Springs offered more space, solitude and nearness to nature. I would recommend it to anyone.
