Reviews
"There are several options at Miami Missinewa campground. There's a nice snack bar and store. Very clean beach ,with a playground. There's several places to fish. Found the lost sister trail on other side of lake to be a nice trail.The dam had lots of fish."
"Used to be really great place for fishing but sure seems overfished anymore, especially when you get the foreigners that thinks they need to keep EVERYTHING, even during spawning season. The campground is nice place, beach is okay, but just watch yourself out there. I've seen kids come out with cuts on their foot and I've seen human poo floating around the swimmers. The trails are nice to explore!"
"We went here for some fishing and we had a good time. We didn’t catch anything. Overall area was clean, and there was a nice park that was clean and well kept."
"Had a lot of fun at the beach with some family. We had a picnic lunch and floated in our tubes while others just sat and chilled!"
"A lovely place to go if you're in the mood to fish or take your family to. It is a great sight to see in the middle of flat Indiana."
