Eby’s Pines RV Park and Campground

We chose Eby’s Pines because of its convenient location. Anyone traveling 80 east/​west in need of full hook-​ups could consider. Personally we will not stay there again. Office folks were very matter-​of-​fact on the phone saying there was no pull-​through availability, but on arrival in the evening and the next morning there remained multiple. Instead we were squished in a very congested area, having to detach with no room to park our truck. The grounds are clean but very chaotic with kids on bikes and golf carts all over. Many of the sites were spacious, but many were very haphazard and not easily accessible at all. Wifi access is available at a charge, which would be ok if the pricing weren’t already fairly high and folks more friendly. Seems like folks who are overnight are very secondary and is catering to seasonal or long-​term users. When asking about more accommodating space, we were just told very snippy, «that’s all we have available,» which wasn’t true.

Had a good time camping with some friends in an adjacent lot. The pool was refreshing (cold) due to the recent weather. Kids didn’t care though. The water slide is nice for the kids under 12.
Some site specific issues:
The water connection for our lot was pretty far away. It was further away than my neighbors electric hookup. We don’t connect water to our pop-​up but we do set up a dish washing station. Not real convenient to wash up in someone else’s lot.
The seasonal site behind us was trashed. Bikes and lawn chairs lying around. Golf carts filled with junk. Dog food disposed in the fire pit. The flies loved that.
Our lot was not well shaded but did have good grass coverage.
Pros: Nice big pool, shallow enough for kids. Lifeguard on duty too.
Trail to Bonneyville Mill County park
Discounts given for skating and laser tag located across the street.
Cons: Paths are gravel which can get dusty and also irritated my wife’s plantar
fasciitis.
Urinals are a flush free «water saving» design. They smell.
I noticed some minor trash throughout the park. Not major but obvious. Staff
need to patrol.
Wi-​Fi is not free.

This was a stop over for us and the rain has been following us. Needless to say it poured all night. Didn’t sleep well, heard some traffic in the distance. I can say I really think this place is overpriced. The place we stayed at prior to this was gorgeous and it was just about $ 20 less. There aren’t any discounts either. There is a pool which we couldn’t use because of rain, laundry, shower, camp store and they do have cabins to rent. Thee also is a fishing pond. There are over 300 sites/​cabins. I wouldn’t stay here again because of cost.

Pros: Well-​maintained grounds. Clean shower facilities with hot showers. Plentiful onsite activities. RVs for rent.
Cons: Extremely popular location in the heart of the RV capital of the USA.

I really love this Northern Indiana campground. I usually come in the spring and fall because I really enjoy hiking at Bonneyville Mills County Park, Kayaking on one of the nearby rivers, and visiting the shops at Shipshewanna. The park is more of a resort and has 2 really nice pools, 2 fishing Ponds, Miles and Miles of Connected trails to a big County Park, and more. They also offer cabins for rent and have tons of children’s activities. The wifi is a professional system and is very strong and useful. I WOULD RECOMMEND THIS PARK TO ANYBODY!
