A Country Setting
Pay us a visit at
Pioneer Family Campground in Northwestern Indiana and take part in fun activities like hiking and biking, petting farm animals, slipping down water slides, and exploring a Chicago zoo! With our setting, 45 miles south of
Chicago, our Indiana RV park enjoys the best of all worlds -- we're near big city
attractions like the Magnificent Mile, but we're also set in a quiet rural area that's perfect for relaxation. You'll find family farms in our county, like the
Fair Oaks Farms dairy farm, a great place to go for a tour and hands-on educational exhibits.
Peacefull, Natural Surroundings
Right in camp at Pioneer Family Campground you can go hiking around the pond, go bird watching in our woods, or plan a picnic lunch to enjoy right at your campsite. We have a playground for the kids as well as a rec room with rainy-day games and ping-pong. And in the wintertime, this area turns into a snow haven with trails for cross-country skiing and snowmobiling, plus areas for snowboarding and sledding. And you can always watch for wildlife along our trails through the woods.
Visit the Onsite Lake
Our area is known for its excellent shopping at the
Westfield Southlake Mall. You can also shop for handicrafts and homemade treats at
Amish Acres (2 hrs. away), an 80-acre homestead where the kids can meet the farm animals and you can take a tour through this Amish community. And for a taste of history, don't miss a visit to the
Buckley Homestead or to
Historic Crown Point, home of the "Grand Old Lady" courthouse.
Come Stay With Us
You can head to Lake Michigan for a day of boating, fishing, water sports, and beach games. If you're nearby Chicago, you won't want to miss a trip to see the incredible animals, children's zoo, and butterfly garden at the
Brookfield Zoo. And in nearby Merrillville you can catch a show at the
Star Plaza Theatre or go splashing down the water rides and wave pools at the
Deep River Water park.
