Camp hosts keep this campground in spectacular shape. Clean, tidy and organized.

Nice campsite. When we got there, it looked like someone had used a leaf blower to clean off the gravel pad. There was some distance between our campsite and neighboring campsites — we weren’t on top of one another. Potable water spigot was close to our campsite. The latrine was a short walk.

Good campground with friendly staff. The only issues I’ve had is all the people coming in and just taking camp areas that have already been reserved by others. The area is very convenient for several trails in the area and of course it’s nice being close to Red River Gorge and Natural Bridge.

The site was nice but way too close to the highway. Could hear vehicles all night.

When I got here, I was told by the ranger that Kentucky has issued a “STATE OF EMERGENCY” for the area and best to leave the area because of the weather. My wife and I left because of the high winds (tall trees swaying over our campsite), heavy winds with possible tornados.
We booked through Recreation.gov…and no recourse, no refund!!! I’m out $40!!!…they should make exceptions!!! So my advice is, don’t book too far ahead

The sites are very nice and spread out. The showers were not open due to delays with renovations. It would have made the experience better to have the showers open. It would have been nice to have designated hours for when you could buy firewood and ice as there were a couple times I was unable to buy any due to no one being there. Overall we enjoyed our time here!

Spots were well constructed, spaced apart perfectly, and easy to access. I only wish the showers were open for the season. The weather was in the 60s and it was after April 1st.

We had a good experience at Koomer Ridge Campground. We met some nice people and pets. The only drawback was the lack of shower facilities due to water pipe break.

The campsite itself was very nice, but the campground itself needs some work. The campsite has a nice level pad, functional picknick table, two handy gear hanging stands, and a fire pit. Cell phone reception was quite good and the sites are spaced out nicely. The communal facilities at the campground need some work though. The bathhouse and the water spigots were unfortunately closed down the weekend of my stay due to a water line break. That left the outhouses as the only option available. The one closest to my site had seen better days. The latch on the door was broken and the tile on the floor was breaking apart which caused a tripping hazard. The highway noise is quite noticeable (bring your earplugs), but the closeness of the highway affords you easy access to Slade and Campton. Despite these negatives, I had an overall enjoyable stay with easy access to the trails in the Red River Gorge.

Our campsite was really nice and the setting of the campground is quite beautiful. It would have been a more or less perfect stay except that there was no water in the entire campground and the bathroom buildings were closed and caution taped. Someone told us they had an issue with a water main or something. Regardless, this was not communicated to us ahead of time and was not a nice surprise, plus the campground is really not worth the cost if there are no facilities…
