IN | 2025, Oct 10-12: Hoosier Hospitality Fall Rally 2025

[Karen K.]

Greetings all!!

It will soon be time to book your reservation for October 10-12, 2025.
We are in hopes of going to Shakamak State Park. Bill has graciously offered to fry fish for us. Problem is, their Halloween weekend is the week after our event and with so many people who book for 14 days ahead of what they really want, then only show up for the last 2 or 3 days, I fear it will be hard to get sites. I am going to watch the Reserve America closely in the days ahead of what we need. I know many of us will come in on the 8th.

Second choice will be Versailles State Park. Again, I will be watching to see what is available there as well. Their Halloween party is 2 weeks after our weekend.

Keep an eye on this forum to find out what we decide.

Looking forward to a great camping season.

Looking forward to your decision. I was hoping to book by April 7th since I want to come in on October 7th.
Has Shakamak made improvements in their drainage. The last time I was there many sites were completely flooded.
Thanks, Lynn

[Karen K.]

Hopefully October will be a drier month.

[Indiana Lynn]

Karen did you choose shackamack or versaille?

[Rich Law]

Hi Karen, I understand the Halloween weekend crowds. Been there, done that. I will try and keep a eye on your post. I heading south this week and will be in a couple of weeks. Sometimes it's a little tricky making resv from there. I have to remember the time zones. Where ever you decide, I will be there.

Go safely maureen!
I want to arrive on the 7th so I need to book tomorrow morning early. Which park do you want to go to?
Thanks, Lynn

[Karen K.]

Ok all. Looks like as of today, Shakamak has 94 sites available. So, Shakamak it is!

If you are coming in on Wednesday ahead of the rally, tomorrow, April 8, is your day to book. Sites 1-23 and 58-80 will keep us together the best. Don't wait too long as this park fills fast.

Hello Egg Friends!

Logan and I just booked site number 82 for October 7th through 13.

That is across from the road that Karen recommended because I like to be near the playground. Until friday, Logan and I will have her friend Rosie with us. Come by and say hi!

If there are no group plans for dinner Friday evening, we will have a weenie roast at my site at 6:00. You are all welcome to join us. I will provide the Weenies and the fire. BYOB&C. (Chair.)

Eager to see you all soon!

Anita and I are booked for site 122 from 09 to 13 October. Looking forward to seeing everyone. We had to cancel Spring.

[Karen K.]

Lots of sites have been booked the last day and a half. I hope its our group. only 39 sites left in the park.

[IndyDeb]

Larry & I wil be in site 15 from 10/8 - 10/12. Looking forward to it!

[Karen K.]

Only 5 sites left at Shakamak State Park for our rally. Please let me know who is coming.

[Roy Bakehorn]

Was able to snag site 20.

[Karen K.]

Shakamak is now full. There are still some non electric sites available. Four days ago there were still 94 sites and there are now none. Hoping our group jumped in there.

[Karen K.]

Can you all let me know if you got in to Shakamak State Park? There is still time to change locations if we all can't be together. Provided those who are in don't mind the fee to make changes.

[Roy Bakehorn]

I am willing to change if most people were not able to reserve a site.

[Roy Bakehorn]

Karen is sticking with shakamak so if any of you folks reserved at site for this rally and have not posted your site number, please post your site number now so Karen has an idea of how many are attending.

[Rich Law]

Hi Karen, Maureen here. My credit card shows that I booked a site on 4-8-2025 with RAO. Since it was a hectic day because on some travels I didn't make any written note for myself. turns out I never received a email confirmation. in checking my RAO account it doesn't any upcoming other than TRSP in May. It doesn't even show my past camping booking history with them. I'm working to straighten it out. I will let you know my site number when this problem is cleared up.

[Indiana Lynn]

Hello fellow egg campers! I just got a new bionic hip ��. I thought I might be ready to come camping by the rally this month but my surgeon is saying no and so far I agree.

I will come up just for the day Saturday the 17th if I can drive by then.

Before I cancel my site number 78 at Tippecanoe, which I have reserved for Tuesday the 13th through Monday the 19th, does anybody want it? Looks like the campground is sold out.

I can have the reservation switchef to your name. And I can have it made to a shorter reservation as well. Please text me by Monday at 317-752-8622 if you want my site.

[Indiana Lynn]

Disregard the above message. I was referring to the spring rally at Tippecanoe. My site for that rally is 78 and it is available until Monday if you want it.
