Indy Lakes RV Campground
Overview
Indy Lakes RV Campground offers a unique blend of urban accessibility and a relaxed waterfront atmosphere on the south side of the city. This park is centered around private fishing lakes, providing a scenic and calm backdrop for travelers visiting the Circle City. It serves as a practical home base for those seeking a functional stay with immediate access to natural surroundings and outdoor recreation.
Location & Surroundings
The park is conveniently situated just off the I-465 beltway, making it easy to navigate for big-rig travelers passing through Indiana. While the location is close to major transport routes, the presence of mature trees and the water’s edge creates a buffer from the city's hustle. Its position in the Southport area ensures guests are within minutes of necessary services, including grocery stores and fuel stations.
Amenities & Park Features
The campground provides essential services designed for a comfortable stay, including sites with 50-amp full hookups and level pads. The defining feature is the on-site bait shop and well-stocked fishing lakes, which allow guests to enjoy catch-and-release or keep-style fishing without leaving the property. Additional conveniences like laundry facilities and Wi-Fi help bridge the gap between a rustic fishing camp and a modern RV park.
Nearby Attractions & Things to Do
Staying here places you within a short drive of the most popular landmarks in the region. Sports fans will appreciate the proximity to Lucas Oil Stadium and the Gainbridge Fieldhouse, while racing enthusiasts are just a quick trip away from the Indianapolis Motor Speedway. For a more relaxed afternoon, the Indianapolis Zoo and the downtown Canal Walk offer plenty of walking paths and family-friendly exploration.
Who This Park Is Best For
This park is an ideal choice for fishing enthusiasts who want the convenience of casting a line right from their home base. It is also well-suited for travelers attending conventions or sporting events in downtown Indianapolis who prefer a quiet evening by the water over a busy hotel stay. The park’s layout and location make it a reliable year-round stopover for those moving through the Midwest.

We were glad to get the last spot for a single night stay. It looked great online. When we pulled in to our assigned spot I had to clean up the mess of trash, broken toys, a kiddie pool, a stroller, and a bike. The "lakes" are smelly, green ponds. They must be well stocked, because we saw people fishing. The staff were very friendly and warned us against the mosquitos. If you want better than a Walmart parking lot this is that. Don't expect a place to hang out outside or meet new travelers, most of the trailers looked like they had been there for a long time.

Good place to fish. Me, my dad, and grandpa always have a good time there and usually catch a bunch of fish.

This is a great place to fish. Nothing bad to day in the least. Only negative comment would be the website is outdated. It states they offer cabins (2) as well as allowing tents ( 4 spots). Called was told cabins are out service until next year, called back as about setting up tent, said no longer offer. I would suggest updating the website

Wonderful stay at indy lakes! Everyone in the bait shop was super friendly and helpful! The way they have deliveries set up made it very convenient to get my medication thats mail ordered. I appreciate the hospitality and will be back if I come back to the area for work!

Took my granddaughter fishing here today. I didn't get their names, but the staff (two ladies) were very kind. Greeted us, gave us some pointers on fishing and made the experience wonderful. Thank you for making our day pleasant.
