McCormick’s Creek State Park reopens for limited use

SPENCER -- McCormick’s Creek State Park, which was severely damaged by last Friday’s tornado, will reopen to limited use today, April 7.

The park’s Canyon Inn will be fully open and will offer an Easter buffet on Sunday, with reservations highly recommended for those who plan to attend.

Many park trails remain closed, and the campground will be closed through Oct. 1. Individuals with campground reservations are being contacted directly and given full refunds, and no new reservations for camping at McCormick’s Creek will be accepted for arrival dates through the end of 2023.

Volunteers who would like to help with park cleanup can sign up at https://bit.ly/mccormicks-creek-volunteer, and they will be contacted by Indiana State Parks staff in the coming weeks.

When guests arrive, they will receive a handout of facilities and services available, with updates also available online at on.IN.gov/mccormickscreeksp to check ahead of a visit. Park interpretive naturalists will be roving in key park locations to answer questions throughout the weekend.

McCormick’s Creek State Park (on.IN.gov/mccormickscreeksp) is at 250 McCormick’s Creek Park Rd., Spencer.
