South Bend / Elkhart North KOA

What real campers really say and feel about our park: "This is a very friendly, hospital KOA with lots of comfy amenities including indoor bathrooms and showers (I mean in the building where the store is) space heaters, and VERY kind employees. Though South Bend is not a meaningful destination for any other reason, we WILL be going back to this KOA!" Mindi T."We had a great time and plan to return. I love the fact that it's close to home but we felt far away. It's managed well and offered a lot. We can't wait to use the pool! Thank You!" Tesha M.“"This is a very well run Kampground. Everything works and is neat and clean. Some of the best restrooms and showers I have seen. Lots of good restaurants within walking distance". Michael M.

“Great people run a very nice place!" Donald C.

Since then, notoriety has stayed with us.Officially established in 1830, St. Joseph County was home to the Studebaker family and their iconic Studebaker Automobile Company.
