What Makes a Gay Campground the Best?
Guys searching for the best gay campgrounds in the Midwest are usually looking for the same four things. Here's how CreekRidge Campground shows up for each one, in guests' own words.
Safety & Acceptance
A private, membership-only, all-male space where guys can be themselves without judgment.
Genuine Community
A "chosen family" culture guests describe as welcoming from the very first visit.
Nightlife & Nature
Club Solitude's dance floor and 60 wooded acres of trails, ponds, and quiet, in one place.
Transparent Membership
Clear pricing, straightforward membership terms, and no surprises at check-in.
"Hands down my favorite campground! The grounds are large enough to get time to yourself if needed but quaint enough to make new friends around every corner. The staff and seasonal campers go above and beyond to make you feel welcome and the vibe is all around caring and friendly. I love it here."

First-Timers Feel Instantly Welcome
First time staying at CRC. We are from central Indiana and decided to take the 3.5 hour trip up here. I have to say that this campground was incredibly welcoming, incredibly fun, and we had SUCH an amazing time. The hospitality of EVERYONE to us new folks was incredibly positive and we truly felt welcomed. The facilities were well-maintained and the camping spots (33 double axle TT) were made perfectly. It was SUCH an easy level/set-up. We had an amazing time on TH-Sunday. Thank you to all for the wonderful weekend!

It is a very nice place. Very friendly people. Facilities are well maintained and the weekend events like the dances or theme parties are always a lot of fun. It is a great little get away. Not my first trip, not my last either!!

Club Solitude & Nightlife
I can't recommend this place enough. Great departure from the typical bar scene. Friendly people, all ages, all "types". Flirt, play, or just hang out. And the club is fun!

I stayed with friends here in this caravan park about 2 years ago. Nice Gay campground and caravan park. They have a bunk house to sleep or play in and a few upscale cabins. They also have a "nature" cruise trail and a barn for dancing, shows, and cocktails. There's a guy who does wood work and can custom build a porch to attach to your caravan. This caravan park is recommended for gay men who are into cowboys, bears, and leather. For the butch crowd or lovers of those aforementioned. They also have a first rate huge shower and restroom facilities. Bring your caravan (RV/trailer) and enjoy!
