VerifiedOctober 25, 2025 • Stayed at: 032, Loop: Northface
Our stay in the northface started on 6 Oct and ended on 10 Oct. Campground is clean and well maintained. Site had electricity and water is available (but not at each campsite); wooden picnic table and firepit. Northface is a one-way loop that gradually ascends at entry, briefly levels off at the top, and then descends back to the start of the loop. Some sites didn't look like they would level easily, but others were level without any effort. Pit toilets were clean. Bathhouse was very nice: toilets, sinks, warm showers, clean. Dump station is not on the campgrounds, but is a few miles away (may need to ask host for directions as it isn't easy to find). Check-in/pout was quick/easy. Location is wooded (beautiful in the fall) and quiet. Appears busy on the weekend, but weekdays seem available nearly all the time. Camphost and maintenance folks were personable and active. Gas/quick shop 2 mi awayLouisville is 50 mi away. Love it here and will definitely look to stay again.

I think you should charge for 2 cars in one camp. Especially for every night you're there.

Campgrounds were nice, very spread out and spacious. Very woodsie and lots of privacy. Shower house was clean but needed a heater. Other bathrooms were clean also. The campground host were very friendly.
