Booked a site here last minute on a Friday night. Person at front desk was unwelcoming, unfriendly and it seemed like I was bothering him.
Pull through Site 44. Was not level and hard to reach electrical box.
Someone was playing loud music until after 11pm. Road a bit noisy too.
I thought the whole places smelled like a toilet. Not sure if it was other RVs or dump station or farm animals nearby.

We stayed here over Labor Day weekend. Close to Shipshewana and all the shopping. Site 38 was decent. Needed about 4 inches of blocks on passenger side which made the last step a big one. Clean bathrooms with a washer and dryer available to use.

This was the last night of our 3 month trip and wanted a full hookup campground to empty / flush the tanks before heading home. It is a great place to sit down while exploring the area. Was able to make the reservation on-line. The site was assigned at check-in. The campground is on a small slant so expect to level a bit. The back-in was gravel with grass all around. The water spigot and dump were on the driver side with the electrical post on the passenger side. Our electric cord is 30' long so no problem reaching the post. Lots of mature trees provide plenty of shade. The water spigot was very low to the ground. With my pressure reducer and Y valve, the in-line water filter had to lay on the ground.
The office has a small store. The ice cream store was open although we did not partake. The grounds are well kept and it was very quiet.

Exceptionally helpful and friendly staff, lots of shaded sites, clean restrooms and a washer/dryer is a welcome addition. The on-site frozen custard stand can be very dangerous to your waistline with flavors changing weekly.

We really enjoyed our one night stay. Site 51 is a pull-though with easy access. There are lots of shaded sites (ours had partial shade), cute cabins, and a hitching station for horse-drawn buggies, which are actively used. There's a frozen custard stand/kiosk near one of the entrances that's open from noon until 9 pm(!). The office staff is friendly and helpful, offering tips on where to go and general information about the area. We were a bit concerned about the fairly busy road not far off, but it gets quite quiet at night. Lots of horse-drawn buggies and small carriages passing by, so much so we became very accustomed to the clip-clop of trotting horses. There's a very large flea market a few miles away, we spent a few hours there the next morning and even found some useful hardware for our RV! It's not far from Elkhart. We'd gladly stay again.

Host on duty at check in was not at all friendly; seemed as if I was disturbing him checking in. Nothing Amish about it or him.
He marked a campground map to show me where the electric and water would be on my site. There was no power pedestal on that pad, had to stretch my cord under the RV and over to the next site that was unoccupied to plug in.
My wife went to check again and he responded that he had already told me. He couldn't be bothered to get up and walk a hundred feet to see what the confusion was and realize he was wrong.
The shower room was unheated and too cold to use on a sub 60 degree evening.
Campground located at busy intersection with constant traffic including all night. Even earplugs could not cut the noise.
COE campground the night before and after was much better for 1/4th the cost.

We attended a BB rally the first week of June. The owner Sam and his wife Uma were very gracious hosts. The campground is impeccably taken care of. There are large expanses of grass to walk your dog with convenient receptacles for used doggie bags. We were in site 52, a pull through on the corner and had a very large site. Trees were well trimmed (a pet peeve of mine) and the interior roads, though gravel were absent of pot holes. Lots to do in Shipshewana, and plenty of RV surplus stores in the area. Not a far walk to some great ice cream and frozen custard. Only drawback is the occasional noisy vehicle.
