点评: 19 years ago we camped here on our way to the Smokies. I vowed I'd never go back. The bathrooms/showers were horrible & I hated everything about the place.
The husband talked me into going back & we decided to do a Fall trip. Wow! What a difference.
It looks like they have a different property manager. The playground looked new. The sites were cared for & they tried a little topical management in the bathrooms.
Although the property is 1300 acres, the lake is only 194 acres. It's electric motor only, so no water skiers or gas motors roaring all day & half the night.
This is a hikers park. Most of the trails are 6 miles or over & rugged. The trails that are less are trails you have to hike from another trail to get to (except trails 1,2 & 4).
The Vista Trail (trail 4) is the most interesting, but the incline is very steep. Supposedly able to see the lake from the top, but all I saw were trees. Maybe better in the winter/spring.
The Knobstone trail trailhead is here. Very long backpacking trail (60 miles!).
Horseback riding is popular & there's a campground just for them.
Only 1 trail for mountain biking - trail 3.
Fishing was poor, but we were here in late October. The weather was chilly 2 out of 3 days. Probably better in warmer weather.
There's a small nature center that would be interesting to families.
The beach was closed to swimming when we were there.
Campground is well cared for. Some sites better than others. The F loop is the best. Some sites have a view of the lake.
The bathroom/showers in F loop were State Park clean, which means on the low end of clean. The sinks & toilets were looked after daily. They covered the walls with some kind of formica board which looked better than bare concrete walls.
Pretty easy on & off I-65. Only a few miles to Deam Lake from there. Sellersburg has restaurants & stores. Didn't see a Walmart, but did see a Walgreens.
翻译: 19 年前,我们在前往大雾山的途中在这里露营。我发誓我永远不会回去。浴室/淋浴很糟糕&我讨厌这个地方的一切。
丈夫说服我回去,我们决定去秋季旅行。哇!有什么不同啊。
看起来他们有不同的物业经理。操场看起来很新。这些地点得到了照顾,他们在浴室里尝试了一些局部管理。
虽然房产占地1300英亩,但湖泊只有194英亩。它只有电动马达,所以没有滑水者或燃气马达整天半夜咆哮。
这是一个徒步旅行者公园。大多数步道长度为 6 英里或以上,且崎岖不平。较少的步道是您必须从另一条步道徒步才能到达的步道(步道 1,2 和 4 除外)。
Vista Trail(步道4)是最有趣的,但坡度非常陡。本来可以从上面看到湖的,但我看到的只是树木。也许冬天/春天更好。
旋钮石步道的起点就在这里。非常长的背包徒步路线(60 英里!)。
骑马很受欢迎,这里还有专门为骑马者准备的露营地。
只有 1 条山地自行车路线 - 路线 3。
钓鱼的情况很差,但我们十月下旬来到这里。三天中有两天天气寒冷。在温暖的天气里可能会更好。
有一个小型自然中心,对家庭来说会很有趣。
我们去的时候海滩禁止游泳。
露营地维护得很好。有些网站比其他网站更好。 F环是最好的。部分地点享有湖景。
F 环路的浴室/淋浴是州立公园的清洁,这意味着清洁程度较低。水槽和厕所每天都会有人照顾。他们用某种福米卡板覆盖墙壁,看起来比裸露的混凝土墙更好。
进出 I-65 非常方便。从那里到迪姆湖只有几英里。塞勒斯堡有餐厅和商店。没有看到沃尔玛,但看到了沃尔格林。
