Needed a one night campground while on a geocaching road trip to NW Ohio. State Park campgrounds are usually clean and well run. This was no exception. My only complaint was the huge amount of mosquitoes, which I know can't be helped! Clean bathroom and shower. Took a hike around one of the lakes the next morning, very pretty. Wish that there wasn't a $9 fee for out of state. In Michigan we pay one fee for the entire year for entry into state parks. Would definitely return here even with the daily fee, though.

This was our first visit to Chain O Lakes. Driving into the park we were impressed by the beauty. What a little gem. When we were driving in we thought it was very remote until we came to a clearing and then there were a TON of people there. I am sure this is a very busy park. We chose this campground as it was close to a friend. We were glad we did. The site was very nice. We felt like we had room to maneuver and the sites were nice. They had a fire ring and a picnic table. There were mature trees so there was plenty of shade.
The bathrooms were another story. Although you could see them cleaning the bathrooms they just did not feel clean and I did not love showering there at all.
We did not encounter the sounds of any generators. But everyone around us was having a fire. We were ate up by bugs but that was our fault for not bringing spray.
There were a ton of kids and I could see where this would make a great local campground to get away for a couple of days. The lakes were stunning.
We would certainly stay here again.

We hiked mostly 4 and 7 (and a little 12) in early March! Brought our dogs and didn’t encounter many people. It had some pretty deep mud and gets cold by the lakes, but we were prepared. Wonderful hike, could spend all day hiking there and not be disappointed!

Enjoyed my time here with a group of friends. We camped here for one night. The camp store was nice & convenient. We did the 9 lake challenge and swam at the beach. Kayaking was fun even though some spots were shallow and some were tough to paddle through. These lakes are awesome to watch for herons. Staff at the camp store and kayak rental seemed a bit lost/confused when asked questions but it seemed they may have been understaffed due to the pandemic. Unfortunately we didn't have the time to do any hiking or check out the schoolhouse. Will hopefully be back to do that! One small tip - make sure to keep your food locked up at your campsite because sneaky raccoons will steal from you! :)

We camped here for 3 nights. The restrooms and showers really need some work. The toilets were continually running or clogged with paper, despite being cleaned daily. The showers needed a good cleaning. The campsites were big but it seemed that they filled up
Our section and many other sections were empty. The “beach” was small and the water was so warm we worried about blue green algae. Mosquitoes were terrible do we opted out of kayaking and hiking.

Kayaking this afternoon on 2 of the lakes. A ten minute downpour cooled us off, very nice. Topped off the visit with a picnic lunch under one of the many shelters. We'll be back soon 💪🍉😁

We just returned from a weekend camping trip to Chain O Lakes state park. We paddled the 9 Lake Challenge on Saturday in our inflatable kayaks. It was great! If you’re fount get to do this, you should know that shone mine areas are very shallow and some are quite narrow - lots of seaweed in the channel areas, and there isn’t a lot of current to help you along. This isn’t like kayaking in Sugar Creek, but I’m so glad we did it!
The campground was nice for its size. The roads are narrow, though. Great playground and field area for kids and families. We will return another time for hiking and more biking!

Unfortunately we didn't camp there but I'm pretty sure that it would be amazing to do that in this location, it's a great place for little kids to run around and have fun in the park.

I visited this state park this past weekend. I camped there one night. The campground is very well kept, and the camp store was conveniently located right on the grounds, and I could walk to it. I needed ice and they only charge $2 for a small bag. The restrooms could use some updating as in many campgrounds, but they were clean. Staff all around was helpful and respectful. They had quiet time starting at 11:00 PM and it seemed to be respected by the campers.
The park itself was really pretty. There are 11 lakes scattered throughout, and 9 of them connect to each other. I went there to hike, and I hiked several trails around the lakes. One big piece of advice I would give is pack lots of bug spray! I forgot to bring mine, and the mosquitos were vicious haha. Not too surprising considering all the water around. I wouldn't say this is the best Indiana state park I've hiked in, but I'm on a quest to hike all the remaining Indiana State parks I haven't already hiked in before the end of the year. I think this park would be best viewed from the lakes, and I plan to go back and complete the 9-lake kayak challenge with some friends.

CABIN RENTAL: Our cabin needed vacuuming & wet mop of floors. Cobwebs inside. But we managed to overlook that for the grand total of $83/night! Proximity to Lakes, canoeing & hiking trails is great. DNR must not have budget$ to really clean the inside. Cabin has a ceiling fan & floor fan, 2 Bunkbeds very tight space in one room. No cooking utensils. Must bring Everything you need except skillet, sauce pan and coffee maker & quirky toaster. Showerhead would hit tall person at chin. Canoe rental only $5 per hour. We really enjoyed the canoeing & recommend visiting for that. All hard seats on screen porch and screens covered in lint. Very basic, but budget minded. They have 18 cabins for rent thru October. Don't confuse this cabin review with this State Park's Campgrounds for RVs.

How are the cabins in the summer since there are no air conditioners?
Christie S
Indianapolis, Indiana
Dear Manual20050:
Thank you for your inquiry and I apologize for the delay in responding. You are correct that there is no air conditioning in the cabins at Chain O'Lakes, however, they are set back in the woods, which does provide a good deal of shade. Also, you would be allowed to bring a fan because the cabins have electricity, if needed. I hope this helps. Thank you.

stayed in Cabin 9. It was conveniently located to the parking area and to the wooden path that leads down to a dock on one of the lakes, which has a nice bench on it to sit and relax. All the cabins are in the same general area and I think they are all quiet conveniently located to parking areas.
