Our hilltop cabin was exactly as described. The activities were appropriate for children. The grounds were very well kept and offered quite a bit of walking/play/picnic areas. The campsites are a bit small, but with all the activities there is little reason to hang around the site anyway! My g'daughter and I stayed during a halloween wknd. They had campground wide trick or treating. We, and many others, decorated our cabin/campsite. This was our 1st time at this location, but our 4th Jellystone stay. They are worth the money. The manager/owner is the perfect person for working with the public. She was very welcoming and always called me by name, even when outside the store/check-in area.

We’ve been coming to Jellystone Park Indianapolis East for the past 4 years, visiting 2–3 times a year and always renting an RV. The owners and staff have truly become like a second family to us. We have an adult son with special needs, and they consistently go above and beyond to make his experience extra special. Their kindness and genuine care mean so much to us. The campground is family-owned, exceptionally well-run, and always spotless. The facilities are very clean, the gift shop is well-stocked with fun items, and there are endless activities to keep everyone entertained—including the always-popular bear visits! We highly recommend Jellystone Park Indianapolis East to anyone looking for a welcoming, family-friendly, and memorable camping experience. It truly is the best!

We just got back from a week long family gathering that we held at Jellystone Park Knightsville. We had some 40 odd people from my youngest months old nephew to my 90+ year old grandparents. There was something to do for everyone. The management and staff were very accommodating and helpful through out our stay. We spent a lot of time swimming in the pool, playing on the playground, fishing at the lake, and having fun together as a big extended family. We enjoyed the fisherman's cabin, which was nice, if a little distant from the rest of the crew. My little guy eventually got over his shyness and wanted to see Yogi and his pals when they were out and about. We loved having story time with them. If we were to do it again, I think we would pick Jellystone in a heartbeat.

We stayed in a Cabin at Jellystone Campground. Cabin was HT1 it was perfect for our family of 4. we rented one of the golf carts and highly recommend doing this. This campground was truly one of the best we have been to in along time. It's a smaller campground but man when I tell you it did not disappoint at all! It was kept clean no matter where we were we always saw staff cleaning. The staff was so nice and helpful. When I tell you they keep the kiddos busy here they keep them busy with some many daily activities, from paint ceramics to crafts tie-dye shirts and even a foam pit they have it all. The pool was nice on the hot days we were there, it did get a little crowded I recommend get there early, but over all it was nice and clean. The stocked pond was nice we caught several fish including a snapping turtle! We paid to have the Bear him self come to our site to meet our kids and that was huge high light of their trip they enjoyed playing a game with Yogi and the received a toy plush from him. Don't let the other reviews scare you this campground is defiantly on to visit. We will be back! Thank you for an enjoyable experience.

Was a great stay for the weekend with our 5 year old. He had a blast, and we had fun watching him enjoy his first ever camping trip. We stayed in the Wagon Rental for 2 nights. We loved it. The wagon was an interesting way to experience camping. My wife and I have camped many ways over the years from rustic to luxury. This was a new experience for us as well. Everything was great. The activities for the kids kept them entertained, and it was Dino weekend, so that had our sons interest. I would recommend future improvements to the bath houses. They are a bit cramped, and having to hold the water button in to give my son a shower was an adventure in itself. The pool could use more space as it was very crowded over the weekend. Plus, with no life guard, it was hard to keep order in the pool with the larger kids. The staff was amazing, special shout out to Cameron (who my son shyly refused to dance with but dad spun her & for all her help with activities.), Michelle (you were so helpful in our adventure in everyway.), all three bears Yogi, Cindy, and Boo Boo.

Canceled 4th of July reservation 4 months in advance due to direct family member in ICU for two months and was ghosted about getting $25 res fee returned. Four phone calls and a few emails. Nothing from them. Lady on the phone was nice and understanding but she had to forward to management and they ignore me. $25 fee to them for absolutely nothing and will surely fill that holiday weekend. Pure greed.

We rented a RV during our weekend stay here. I was very impressed with the cleanliness of the RV and the park. Definitely the cleanest RV park we've been to. The activities were a lot of fun and well handled by the staff. Everyone we met and spoke with from the staff was very kind, cheerful, and helpful. I highly recommend!

We just got back from a 5 day stay. The kids did not want to leave! Where to start? The grounds were the cleanest we’ve been to. All of the employees were so nice and hospitable. Although we were there end of season there was still so much to keep the kids busy. From 8 to 19 a good time was had by all. The kids fished, swam, jumped on the inflatable, threw the balls and axes,did tie dye shirts, painted ceramics, went paddle boating, mined for gems and fossils, and had smores by the fire. You can tell there is pride in ownership here! We absolutely loved it and can’t wait to return! Thank you wonderful staff for being so accommodating and patient with our youngest!

Best Jellystone campground all around! The grounds are kept pristine, the owners are so friendly and accommodating, every staff member is so nice and personable. Cute camp store, awesome camp sites with good space. The pool is very nice. All activities are fun and the bears are very engaging and fun. We really love all the activities they do here, it really does make it feel like a vacation. After going to other Jellystones this one takes the cake and will be our yearly family trip together. We never want to leave! Thank you for the great memories!

Great family campground. Owners and staff went out of their way to make everyone feel welcome. They went above and beyond on a couple of maintenance issues we had. The store is well stocked and staff are always accessible. I would recommend this campground to anyone looking for a great place to bring their family.

Great place to camp way better then the retreat at hicksville

We camped in a primitive tent area. It was very clean, and well mowed. Porta potties were near, well lighted. The modern showers, bathrooms and laundry facilities were well maintained and stocked. My girls really enjoyed the swimming pool. My son loved playing basketball and even met a friend. Everybody was friendly and check in/out was easy. We loved it so much, we’re going back next Thursday! 😊

We had an amazing time! It was a SPOTLESS facility and the staff members were very kind. We were so impressed with our cabin. It was even better in person than it was in pictures. My kids were never bored. My 1 not great comment would be that we were bummed that the hiking trails were closed.... but we just walked around the facility and explored.
