Glendale Campground

Montgomery, Indiana

About

Glendale Fish & Wildlife Area provides quality outdoor recreational opportunities while maintaining 8,060 acres of land and more than 1,400 acres of lakes and impoundments. Acquisition of the land for this property began in 1956 and land purchases were made throughout the 1960s. Several minor purchases were made in the 1970s. The construction of the dam that formed Dogwood Lake began in 1963 and was completed in 1965. The lake was renovated in 1978 and restocked with fish in 1979. The average depth of Dogwood Lake is 8 feet. Most revenues used in land acquisition, development, operation, and maintenance of the property are derived from the sale of hunting, fishing, and trapping licenses. Funds are also received from the federal Pittman-Robertson and Dingell-Johnson programs to aid fish and wildlife conservation.
