Weekend Trip to Hill Springs Campground

The site was beautiful. Every direction was picturesque. We just so happened to go camping here on a weekend with a heat advisory and the pavilion was a nice source of shade. There were a lot more houseflies than I thought there would be; especially around the pavilion, but the site is in the middle of a farm so it’s not entirely unexpected. I’d definitely come back to camp here in the fall/winter.

Hill Springs Campground

15 sites · RVs, Tents120 acres · Dubois, IN

Hill Springs Campground is nestled on our 120-acre family farm, and we’re proud to be the third generation to care for this little piece of paradise. Tucked away in the heart of 'God’s country,' our campground offers peace and quiet, miles from the nearest town. The rolling hills provide hay for our cows and wood for the stove, and we take great pride in sharing this beautiful spot with you. Each site offers the chance to unwind by the pond, pick wild blackberries, or hike through our woods. Fire pits are available at all sites. Our sites are simple—no water, electricity, or internet—but generators are welcome, and we provide a toilet on-site. Please remember to pack out all your trash, including cigarette butts. For a glimpse of what to expect, check out a few videos of the campground on our Facebook page, 'hillspringcamp.' We’re also close to plenty of activities: Patoka Lake is just 3 miles away, with 8,800 acres of water, 26,000 sq. feet of land, and a variety of outdoor fun—boating, fishing, hiking, and even a winery. Historic French Lick and West Baden are 16 miles away, offering everything from casinos to a scenic railway, golf courses, a spa, a wildlife park, and the stunning West Baden Springs Hotel, known as the 'Eighth Wonder of the World.' The city of Jasper is 14 miles away, with a charming riverwalk, museums, parks, and food trucks to explore. The small town of Dubois is just 4.5 miles away, with local taverns, a gas station, and a True Value store. At Hill Springs, you can be as close or as far away from the action as you want to be. We’re excited to share this experience with you and welcome your feedback as we start this journey with Hipcamp. Don’t hesitate to reach out if you have any questions! Bryan and Nicole

The Farm-ish Camp & Gather Barn

94 sites · Lodging, RVs, Tents100 acres · Owensville, IN

Camp and gather at our family owned farm- The Farm-ish Momstead, also known as The Martin Family Farm. Available for primitive camping, day use, or event gathering. Amenities could include the use of the event barn for groups and events, a lake, fishing (bring your own pole and tackle, kayak or SUPs), bonfire pits, a shelter house, and a reliving farm experience if you choose to take part- beef cows, dairy goats (often including milking and goat kids), a mini highland cow, and chickens. Included in your stay is our resident Safety Manager, our collie Tilly. Please know she has a job to do and her best tool is her voice. You may hear barking as she keeps critters away. Other than that, she’s super friendly, although she may forget her manners at times and jump when excited.

Yoshi acres

Perfect viewing for the eclipse! We live on 30 beautiful acres. There is a 2 acre pond great for swimming, kayaking and fishing. There are several lovely camping spots, access to potable water and a barbecue and the house bathroom. There is also a hiking trail through the woods. We are located conveniently off the highway yet it is still private.

Bennett branch creek

1 site · RV, Tent180 acres · Sumner, IL

With 80 acres of forest, 100 acres of farmland, a creek, a fishing pond and outdoor sculptures, it offers a diverse range of activities for visitors. The limited hiking trails and primitive sites add to the natural feel of the place. The beautiful scenery and abundant wildlife will surely attract nature lovers and outdoor enthusiasts. I'm planning for the property to evolve into an art park and campground that fosters community, building, and collaboration among artists and nature enthusiasts. It will be a space where creativity and appreciation for nature come together, offering a platform for artists to showcase their work in harmony with the surrounding environment. This vision aims to create a vibrant and inclusive community that celebrates the intersection of art and nature. Local attractions within 5 mile radius include Red Hill state park, Red Hill raceway, Berryville winery and Ironside bar. Currently there are no showers or toilets for public use on the property but plans are in place to accommodate in the future .
