When you book an RV in Pulaski County, you’ll have easy access to this state park and all the surrounding towns. The park, which contains over 23 miles of trails, was originally founded and built in the 1930s thanks to the Works Project Administration and the Civilian Conservation Corps.

This park pulls locals from all over the area, including Culver, Winamac, and Rochester, who come to enjoy its dense forests and water activities. There is much to do here, and when you spend time camping with an RV inside of the park boundaries, you’ll soon discover what makes it such a local favorite.
