Review:
The Shades State Park is a peaceful state park a little less than twenty miles southwest from Crawfordsville, Indiana. It a particularly popular park among canoeists and hikers. The stunning sandstone cliffs overlook Sugar Creek and several shady ravines provide a backdrop for adventures through the paradise for nature lovers. No camping is offered within Shades State Park, however, camping can be found at the nearby Turkey Run State Park. The Pine Hills Nature Preserve is also located within the grounds of the park, offering spectacular topography for visitors who enjoy rather long hikes.
