Shades Campground

When you're ready to take a break from civilization and head outdoors, Shades Campground near Waveland, Indiana, is the perfect solution. Shades is a rustic campground located within the Shades State Park, on the west end. You'll find picnic tables and fire rings at each site, plus restrooms and stations where you can draw potable water. There are no hookups so you'll need to make sure you're prepared before you arrive, but in return, you'll have all the quiet you can handle and then some.Immediately behind the RV campground, you'll see one of the park's many hiking trails which connects to the other trails, so you can throw on your hiking boots and be on the trail the moment you step out of your rental RV door. If you're up for something more demanding, Shades has access to a hiking challenge: traversing six ravines (some of them equipped with ladders). There is a restroom at the start of this trail, but it's the only one on the trail. If hiking isn't your thing, a short walk to the lake will allow you to fish or go swimming, and picnic sites with shelters and an interpretive center are nearby. The campground is open from approximately April to October (exact dates depend on the weather and other factors), and some sites are for tent camping.
