Shades State Park, Indiana

  Shades is our favorite campground of all the state parks.  We have camped in almost everyone of the parks.  Shades does not have any electric or water sites so it is perfect for a quite night in a tent.  The bathrooms are pretty nice besides the water being a little too hot.  Cannot get cell phone reception either in the campground which I love.  We highly recommend Shades but make sure you keep us a spot!
