Jellystone Park™ Barton Lake

Con: which is major for us 1. We could NOT shower because the water smelled SOOO BAD. rotten eggs sulfur smell. We could not bring ourselves to shower with it smelling so bad. The website should absolutely warn campers of this. 2. The arcade is a ripoff. We took pictures. Our daughter won 50 tickets on one spin and has 50 tickets from the day before. When she went to check her ticket balance it said 30! She was very upset and confused. The park posts a paper saying that they have no responsibility for the arcade games not working properly. 3. We were placed next to an interstate. Honestly, this is dangerous. If there were an accident off the interstate, someone could be injured it’s that close and barriers. Along the perimeter of the site, there was empty airplane bottles and trash. If they are going to have these prices, then people stuck next to the interstate should be given a substantial discount. 4. The lights were out in several areas that the kids activities were taking place for in the evening. One of the jump pillows was deflated. 5. The putt putt clubs were needing new grips. 6. The bathrooms were okay. But looked like they weren’t being cleaned or swept properly. 7. The prices were insane. Most everything in the store had a mark up of 50-100% or more. Pros: Fun activities that kids do enjoy.

Our family had a great time visiting Jellystone Park in Barton Lake, IN. It was the first time the kids have been there and the first time in a long time that the rest of us had been there, let alone camping. We stayed in a cabin with bunks in one room and a queen size bed in the front room. It was surprisingly clean when we arrived and we tried our best to keep it that way. The kids had so much fun with all of the different things to do. We watched a movie, played mini-golf, and of course spent ample time at the water park, among other activities. We will definitely come again. :)

Amazing campground with amazing staff and the best camping vacation we had to date. The park was amazing with tons of activities for our younger children. The pools, water slides, and water park were all great and still had room even when the park was full. The planned activities kept our kids busy and they enjoyed those as well. Nice camp store and also a place to grab some food although we did not get anything so I’m unsure how extensive the menu is. Overall, excellent campground and we will return.

The site we picked was not as I expected it to be. However, the camp ground was more then helpful and offered me a new spot that was to my liking. We had a great time. Kids loved all the attractions there.

We spent a weekend in Oct at the campground in your tri-sites off the canal. As always we had so much fun. The whole family is able to come and the memories we make are so perfect. This year we even went on the haunted trail. We ran screaming thru the whole thing and our hearts were racing when we got out, but we are still talking about it a month later. Thank You for providing such a clean and enjoyable campground for us to come to every year!!
