Stories from the community

1 night at Cedar Trail

It was perfect location for us. It was a quick stop and it was only 5 mins from the freeway. Easy to back in and hook up. WiFi worked great. It was last minute booking and they were very accommodating. We were pulling our 34’ 5th wheel and had no problem getting to the property. We also got to see lightning bugs :)

Weekend Trip to Hidden Valley River Camp

Beautiful place with a great view! Spent a lot of time swimming and fishing in the river! Enough space to play football, pickleball, tag, etc with our big family. Land is maintained very well, porta potty clean with a nice hand washing station right next to it. Will be back!

Weekend Trip to Fiskburg Holler

The land was beautiful. The hike to the campground definitely made you feel like you were getting away. Don't plan on carrying too much stuff up that hill. It's pretty steep.

Weekend Trip to Hidden Valley River Camp

Weekend Trip to Hidden Valley River Camp

Our family enjoyed the river stay and the owners were really nice and went out of their way to make our stay enjoyable.

2 nights at Hidden Valley River Camp

What a great spot! Truly feels like a hidden gem. We had a wonderful stay for two nights. Kathy and her husband were so friendly and helpful offering check-ins but leaving us to ourselves the rest of the time. Our boys (5 and 3) LOVED our camp site next to the creek. We caught frogs, fish and crawdads and every bug you could think of! We had deer walk through the camp site and saw mice, chipmunks, and all sorts of birds which was heaven for my two outside kids. Bonus - great fireworks for July 4th right next to the river! We will definitely be back!

8 nights at Fiskburg Holler

The location is easy to find and the gravel parking area is just off the road. There is a 3 minute walk to the campsite down a pretty steep hill on a well maintained path. The campsite is isolated and you mostly just hear nature sounds. I did not use the fire pit or picnic table, I was just out there to sleep after work, but they're new and there is firewood next to the fire pit. I camped in a hammock, but the area to put up a tent is flat but on slight slope. It's nice. I was there for multiple nights and no one disturbed my campsite. This is a simple, remote campsite that is appropriately priced.

Weekend Trip to Carriage House Farm

We had a great visit to Carriage House Farm site #4. There was plenty of room for 10 people in 7 tents. We wandered down to the Lost Bridge Beverage Company each evening for tasty drinks and listening to good local music. There are plenty of activities on site and nearby. On Saturday, we rented kayaks at one of the local liveries, and hiked the trails at Shawnee Lookout Park just down the road.

Weekend Trip to Hones Pointe Campground

I loved the primitive tent camping! Bradley’s backwoods campsite was perfect and secluded. It was peaceful and the petting zoo was perfect. Mr. Ed the mini horse came right up in our campsite and let us pet him and feed him. He was so sweet. Let us take picture with him. Steve was the best host! Loved this little hole in the wall. Also the little signs along the small trails were so funny and gave it the best little homey touch! 1000/10. Thank you all so much!

Weekend Trip to Hones Pointe Campground

We had an amazing weekend at Hone Camp. Steve was so friendly the campground was so clean and well maintained very comfortable and serene. I totally would recommend this campground

Weekend Trip to Away at Green Hill

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Clean, Cozy, and So Much Fun! This campsite exceeded all our expectations! The first thing we noticed was how clean and well-maintained everything was—especially the toilet, which was surprisingly neat for a campground. It made the whole stay so much more comfortable. The hammock setup under the trees was the perfect touch—we spent hours just relaxing, reading, and soaking in the peaceful vibes. And the trampoline? Total win! The kids (and even some of us adults 😄) had an absolute blast bouncing around. It added such a fun, unexpected element to our trip. Between the quiet surroundings, the thoughtful amenities, and that dreamy hammock nap, this place really felt like a hidden gem. Definitely coming back!

3 nights at Hidden Valley River Camp

One of the best sites we’ve visited. Hosts were extremely kind and hospitable, porta potty was very clean, all sites were clean and mown witb an easy walk to the river. Road in was a very steep incline which would be difficult in snow or ice but was fine for our van while visiting in summer. Easy drive onto all campsites once down the hill. Would definitely visit again.

Weekend Trip to Hones Pointe Campground

New favorite family spot! Nearly every site is right on or very close to the river — peaceful and beautiful. We stayed by the main pavilion (the kids picked it), and even in that central spot, we had a good amount of privacy. If you want seclusion, there are definitely tucked-away sites too. Tons for kids to do: volleyball, frisbee golf, badminton, a “hillbilly pool,” and even a surprise inflatable water slide the host set up one day! Some sites are near animals, which was a fun extra. Sites feel natural but have useful amenities like a fire pit, grill, picnic table, and trash cans. No showers, but Porta Potties are well-placed and convenient. The host was super responsive and welcoming. Great mix of rustic and family-friendly. We’ll absolutely be back—and next time, we’re bringing more family!

Weekend Trip to Fire pit creek side

This place checked all the boxed for us. I brought my 7 yo here and he was able to play in the creek and catch crawdads while I set up camp. Then, I helped him catch some crawdads, and we eventually took a dip in the bigger creek, which was refreshing on a very hot day. The site was also shady and private--you can see a house up on a hill if you walk onto the bridge, but it isn't close enough to see people clearly. The host was very responsive. Remember to turn your phone off of roaming (or heck, just turn it off), as it will drain the battery when you are in camp. I got service once I was back up on the road. I would come back here again, for sure.

Weekend Trip to Hones Pointe Campground

Hones point,honestly it's great site. The little Kentucky river that is on property along the camp sites is absolutely amazing to go play in or just plain out sit alongside and listen to. Steve has done a amazing job at making the sites great. Picnic table,camp grill and fire ring. The only negatives that my wife and I have to say are these. If you're wanting peace and quiet this is not the place. At random times you would here what we belive were donkeys or livestock get excited for what seemed to be hours on end. If it wasn't the donkeys it was dogs barking no stop. And we had no cell service but that could be a carrier issue. All in all great place will probably come back with the grandbabies cause it is nice and there is a play area. All in all,it's a great place and would recommend.

3 nights at Hones Pointe Campground

We loved walking through the creek and catching crawdads.

Camping in Clifty Falls State Park guide

Overview

About

Check out several cool things at this state park in southeastern Indiana. Clifty Creek Canyon offers many waterfalls, a deep canyon, a railroad tunnel, and a rugged trail. All of these things satiate your need for an outdoor adventure.

See all four waterfalls in this park. Tunnel Falls is the tallest at 83 feet. Trails leading to these places are rugged or even very rugged. One trail is a 3-mile path that is one of the roughest trails in the state.

Look up when you reach the canyon floor. Light only reaches the floor during the sun's highest point in the sky.

View the 1852 railroad tunnel, essentially an artificial cave, from May 1 to Oct. 31. Construction crews started the tunnel but then abandoned the idea.

Head to nearby Madison for Lanier State Historic Site. It's a former mansion once owned by a millionaire banker. The drive just to get here has stunning views of the Ohio River.

Book early, especially for peak seasons, to ensure your spot in this sought-after natural haven.
Consider visiting during weekdays for better availability and a quieter camping experience.
Stay flexible with your dates and explore different campsite options to increase your chances of securing a reservation.
Explore nearby camping options if your preferred site is unavailable, as the surrounding area offers additional opportunities for outdoor stays.

When to go

The park's waterfalls are most spectacular in the winter and spring, showcasing their dynamic range from frozen sculptures to roaring cascades. Summer offers lush greenery and full access to park amenities, while fall dazzles with vibrant foliage.

Know before you go

Check for any park alerts or closures before your visit to ensure a safe and enjoyable experience.
