I can’t say enough good things about this place. My husband and I go a few times a summer for the past few years and we love the atmosphere. The people are great, pool is always clean and never too crowded and the events are so much fun.
I review most every campground I stay at across the country. I always try to stay at family owned places to patronize the locals instead of the corporate owned as I find them more personable and friendly. Campshore Campground is no exception to that. Its a great place along the Ohio River in Aurora, Indiana. Close shopping in Aurora and Lawrenceburg. Close to the casinos of Rising Sun and Lawrenceburg. This campground offers so much for campers with or without kids. They have a large swimming pool, volleyball court, playground, Basketball court, horseshoe pit, live music on various weekends and boat docks on the river. They also have a few cabin for rent along the river. The owners are super nice people and take pride in the place. It has become my favorite of all the campgrounds I stay at and if you follow my reviews, you will see I have a lot of favorites. As I have said on previous reviews, every campground is a work in progress. There are always things that can be better and always things being upgraded. Independently owned campgrounds can't just dump a ton of money at once like the big corporate owned places, but this one is doing a great job making it the kind of place you would enjoy visiting. And you can always watch the barges go by on the river.
We were thankful we were able to get a place to pull into at the last minute, but the party people up past midnight wasn’t what we ever did as camping.
Friendly owners, well kept kid friendly pool, and fair prices (cash discounts as well as discounts for longer stays). Super close to the creation museum and not too far from the Ark Encounter. Bathrooms are kept very clean!
