About
Spring Mill State Park sits on 1,319 acres in Lawrence County and centers on a restored 1800s pioneer village complete with a working water-powered gristmill, distillery, apothecary, and other historic buildings. Cave tours take visitors through the park's karst landscape, where underground streams and sinkholes define the geology. The Virgil I. Grissom Memorial honors the Indiana-born astronaut who flew on the Mercury and Gemini missions. The campground spreads across rolling, forested terrain with 229 sites. Most are electric (30 amp), and 44 offer full hookups with water and sewer. Comfort stations with flush toilets and showers serve the loops, and a dump station is available. A camp store near the entrance sells firewood, ice, and supplies. The Olympic-size swimming pool with bathhouse operates seasonally from late May through early September. Spring Mill Inn, located within the park, offers a restaurant open to day visitors and campers alike. Hiking trails range from easy strolls around the village to moderate routes through upland forest and along creek bottoms. Fishing is available at the park lake, and nature programs run throughout the season. The park is open year-round, though some facilities and the pool operate seasonally.
