Maple Ridge Campground
Overview

This family-owned property focuses on providing a peaceful camping experience where travelers can reconnect with nature without sacrificing modern conveniences. The park is characterized by its mature trees and spacious gravel pads, offering a shaded environment that feels worlds away from the highway while remaining easily accessible for large rigs. Visitors often appreciate the classic camping vibe that permeates the scenic Indiana landscape here.
Location & Surroundings
Situated in Lakeville, Indiana, the park sits in a prime location for those visiting the Northern Indiana region. It is nestled within a lush, forested landscape that provides a natural canopy for most campsites, keeping temperatures cool during the summer months. The surrounding area is primarily rural, offering clear night skies and a quiet atmosphere for evening campfires. Despite its secluded feel, it is conveniently located near Highway 31, allowing for an easy transition from the busy road to the calm of the woods.

Nearby Attractions & Things to Do
Outdoor enthusiasts will appreciate the proximity to Potato Creek State Park, which is just a short drive away and offers extensive boating, fishing, and biking opportunities. For sports fans and history buffs, the University of Notre Dame and the Studebaker National Museum in South Bend provide excellent day-trip options. Families often enjoy visiting the nearby South Bend Chocolate Factory or exploring the local trails that weave through the scenic St. Joseph County countryside, showcasing the unique small-town charm of Lakeville.
Who This Park Is Best For
This campground is ideal for families seeking an active getaway where kids can run free between the pool and the gaga ball pit. It also serves as a perfect base camp for Notre Dame football fans who want a quieter, more natural alternative to city hotels during busy game weekends. Because of its spacious sites and enforced quiet hours, it is equally suited for retirees or big-rig owners looking for a comfortable long-term summer spot in a scenic, wooded environment.

I arrived at 730 pm and left at 730 am so I didn't interact with the staff while there. I did have great communication with them via email. Bathrooms/showers clean. I would stay there again.

Nice CG. We just stayed 2 nights in a moatly level FHU PT passing through to go home in September. Looks like it would be alot of fun prior to Labor Day when alot of places start shutting down. Alot of seasonal and a nice pond fishing with some lights and benches. Didn't need to use any of the amenities but they all look nice. We did need the assistance of a Mobile RV guy which the CG recommended ( Chad from Rapid Response RV Rescue) and he had us up and fixed quickly. Might make a trip back with the grandkids one day.

Our first time camping here. I’ve known of these grounds since I was little and it was beaver ridge prior. Wow, what an amazing beautiful camp ground you turned this into. I’ve never seen a cleaner bathhouse (seriously) . The pool area is very nice and well kept, the playground was very nice, dog park looked great. Nice new basketball courts. So much to offer. Love the Friday night bonfire and smores. We had a great time looking forward to coming back! Beautiful property!!

The campground was an OK place to stay providing all the amenities for a convenient stay . 2 issues that would have raised the star value : 1 st if management would invest in sufficient gravel or asphalt millings to cover the roads adequately to stop the dust ; instead of the speed bumps , trying to slow the traffic, which isn't working. 2 nd. If they would reconsider making some of the pull thru's single sites instead of all of them being "buddy" sites. Sorry, but traveling solo , I'd prefer not sitting outside of my camper being watched by my neighbor or having to face them while eating at my picnic table. Guess I'm a bit of an introvert 🤷

I don’t even know where to start with how incredible Maple Ridge is! From the owners to every single camper, everyone is so friendly and welcoming—it truly feels like a community. There’s something for everyone here, with plenty of activities for both kids and adults. The pool is absolutely AMAZING, and the campground itself is gorgeous—especially the area near the pond. There are tons of exciting trails to explore, all golf-cart friendly, which adds to the fun. The camp store is well-stocked with all the basics you might need, plus some fun extras that make browsing a treat. Coming to Maple Ridge has been one of the best camping decisions we’ve ever made, and we can’t wait for our next visit!

My family just did an overnight here in our RV & enjoyed the peace & quiet at Maple Ridge. The owner was kind & helpful. We purchased full hookup… no problems whatsoever. We hiked around the property… nice trails… has all of the amenities. We would definitely return if in the area again in the summer & use the pool, dog park, frisbee golf, corn hole, etc.

Very friendly family owned campground. Restrooms and showers were immaculate and nicely decorated. Went to the Friday night bonfire, and everyone was friendly and welcoming. We felt at right at home and it was our 1st visit.

Immaculate quaint bathhouse with a family friendly pool area, basketball/pickleball courts & several hiking trails with lots of wonderful natural scenery & a pond with lighted fountain. Several pull through sites for overnight campers. The owners take wonderful care of this place. If you want a getaway that's still close to South Bend for your camping adventures this is it!

I originally wanted to camp at potato creek but they were full, so we came here which was a complete waste of money. They charge almost 50 dollars a night for primitive camping, which they genuinely don't have, they have maybe 6 spots in the back by a huge barn where all the people that have no lives and life there year long hangout and drink and disrespect everyone that paid to "camp" they have a weird little golf cart cult of alcoholics that drive from morning to night blasting their lighting in your camp site screaming and yelling like degenerates. Absolute worst camping experience I've ever had, the 1 thing positive I can say they had clean bathrooms. The owners of this place are taking advantage when potato creek is full. Please never camp here if you like peace and quite.

This is one of our favorite campgrounds. The sites are fabulous, bathhouses are clean, pool is clear and clean. They have weekend activities for adults and children planned if you want to participate. A playground where the kids can play and you know they are safe there. Our son caught his first fish there. It will be an experience you will want to continue every year.
