The park includes several campgrounds ranging from primitive to more modern style campsites. Hundreds of campsites are available and many include water and electrical facilities. You can make reservations with the Indiana Department of Natural Resources.
Located in the hills next to Brown County State Park is Camp Palawopec, for boys and girls ages 8 to 15. The camp is a private summer camp with many outdoor activities including horseback riding and canoe trips.
