Lori-

Thanks Lori,

Prophetstown is on our list for sure. We tried to stay there last fall, when my daughter, who lives in West Lafayette got married, but it was full. So we will give it a try this year for sure.

Charlarose Lake Campground in Waynetown (west of Crawfordsville) is one of our favorites. Not a whole lot there but we enjoy the quiet laid back feel of the place. They do allow fishing in their stocked pond and we enjoyed drowning a few worms while sitting in the shade. They have full hook up sites but we usually park in the center circle which are water elect. only.

This looks nice and close to some relatives, worth a try and family visit.

Thanks!
