See images in my photo gallery below.Īfter the 7+ mile bike ride, we had a couple hours left until Indiana’s most generous 5PM Sunday check out time. Various civic groups set up scarecrow displays along the trail. The park had a paved bike trail where they set up a “Scarecrow Trail” for October. Next, on to burn off some of those calories with a bike ride. We had a bit of a wait, with the after church crowd, but it was worth it! It is 115 miles from the closest part of the actual Route 66 (which would be Normal, Illinois) but as the sister restaurant to the popular local favorite the Triple XXX (featured on Diners, Drive-ins, and Dives) the Route 66 Diner serves up some great food and friendly service. We wanted to have breakfast out and already knew we were going to the Route 66 Diner in West Lafayette. I fell asleep very early and to my surprise slept very late (for me) – 9:15! That was every bit of 12 hours.

I only had one though! We were treated to a beautiful sunset as well – though as good as a camera as the iPhone 6 Plus has, didn’t get the deep red colors correct (should have brought the Sony!). Woo hoo! Not too many took advantage of it, so there were plenty for the small crowd.

The Indiana DNR had a fall campfire event in the other area of the campground and was offering free s’mores so we headed over and found that they were for everyone, not just kids. We indulged in a little frozen yogurt at Urban Swirl Frozen Yogurt and headed back to the campsite. In many of the open prairie portions of trail 3, it got a little warm with no shade to be found, but trail 4 offered a good mix of shade.Īfter trekking 6 miles, we rested a bit and decided to have an early dinner to replenish some of the calories we burned (and to avoid the post-game Purdue traffic), so we headed to the Dog n’ Suds on US 52 in West Lafayette. The weather was typical October, meaning chilly at night and warm during the day – but warmer in the sun and cooler in the shade. But the layout of the two trails we wanted to take ensured that it was going to be a long walk. We went back to the campsite to check out the trails for our next walk…I’d say hike but the area is pretty flat, no hills, no stairs or ladders to climb – so it was walking. First, we walked around the campground for about a mile. We arrived in the dark Friday night and I wasn’t inclined to do much but go to sleep, but the next day we basically lazed around until we felt like getting up (that feels good!) and had some coffee and breakfast before heading out for a walk. Commercial RV parks are usually close, and state parks are usually spaced farther apart – and this one did quite well! The back-in sites all had three sides of tree coverage, and obviously having a pull-through, we had just two sides – but it was nice to look out and see just trees instead of other rigs and to have a delineation of our site. Both the pull-through and back-in sites all had a very generous number of trees surrounding the roomy sites, creating a nice little enclave of privacy one doesn’t usually find many parks. What was really nice about all of the sites in this area, was the trees! It was a very different feel than the 200-numbered sites.

Pat selected 108, which was a pull-through with full hook ups, so we had water, sewer, and electric, for a total of $40. The sites that became available were in the area with campsite numbers starting at 100. Depending upon one’s preferences, that may or may not be suitable, but it is still nicely manicured and maintained, with a very nice comfort station / shower house in that area. One part of the park is fairly open (electric only site numbers beginning at 200), but with some young trees in between sites. It has a very different feel than the parks in southern Indiana, which have more woods and forests.
The park is primarily on flat prairie land, which is being restored and landscaped to include native prairie plantings. Two sites came up that were not previously available, so they were probably reserved and canceled.īoth sites were at Prophetstown State Park in Battle Ground, near West Lafayette. We weren’t sure which park we wanted to go to, so Pat had the Indiana State Parks website open to their reservations page, showing all available campsites, periodically refreshing it. Knowing October is going to be a busy month, we decided to head out for a RVing weekend.
