Goldenrod Loop, Tipsaw Lake Recreation Area
Family reunions, scout troops, or any group wanting a lakeside base in southern Indiana. Summer is the sweet spot: warm lake temps for swimming, full facilities, and evening campfire weather. At $45/site plus $5 per extra vehicle, the price is reasonable for a reservable group se
No potable water on-site is a real logistical problem for larger groups, so plan to haul it in. Also, the single 30-amp hookup limits what you can run electrically, and solo campers or couples will find five-site minimum reservations wasteful.

Summer is ideal here. Daytime highs between 75 and 90°F make the lake comfortable for swimming, and evening temps in the 55–70°F range are perfect for campfires without needing heavy layers. All facilities run full-time June through August, and the lake reaches its warmest. Weekend crowds pick up during peak summer, so book early if you're planning a full-capacity event. Spring and fall are quieter but cooler, with occasional rain. Winter visits are possible but uncommon.
Summer temps 75–90°F make the lake comfortable for swimming; peak season aligns with summer.
