Sites are the best camping around in the area. Had very negative experience with "gangs" of large and aggressive raccoons. We did not even have ANY food or scented things on our site - everything was put up inside our truck. Bathrooms were clean. Showers were full of spiders and bugs and NO HOT WATER. It has been at least 3 years since we've had a hot shower on Bluegill. Cannot understand why this hasn't been fixed.

We had a great time at Hardin Ridge. Stayed at site 91 in the Blue Gill loop. Level and large sites, not crowded at all. Clean restrooms!

Campground was well maintained, and the electric sites are spread apart enough for a little privacy. Quit, clean, peaceful. The camp host, Randy, was very helpful.

An outstanding property with beautiful, wooded, and many very private sites, and managed and cared for perfectly. This was such a wonderful visit and a lot of that is because the people caring for this place obviously truly do care!

Excellent! This campground is outstanding forsomeone who wants to camp in a quiet, private, peaceful, generator free space surrounded by beautiful forest. Not your typical “loop” setup so no neighbors surrounding you. I will be back again and again!

We had a peaceful, relaxing weekend camping at Hardin Ridge. The sites are big and roomy. You are not stuffed in like sardines.

We love coming to Hardin Ridge. The campsites are all spacious and wooded. The bathrooms are well maintained and sites kept up. Prices are great too compared to state parks in the area.
