Site 204 was a little washed out, had to use three plus boards to get level.

Always lover our stay at Hardin Ridge. The camp hosts are always so helpful and courteous. They do a great job at keeping the campsites, restrooms, and showers clean. We usually stay in the White Oak loop and it's always quiet and campers are very respectful of each other.

Campground was nice. I was told the campground would be closed during the winter months. I would like to see at least one “primitive” loop remain open for people to be able to utilize.

We enjoy Hardin Ridge very much. We have been going there for over 30 years and will continue to do so. The camp sites are mostly large and provide plenty of room between neighbors.

Campsite was exactly as pictured. Camp hostess was excellent. Nice and very knowledgeable. Bathrooms were kept nice. We can’t wait to come back next year. Love Hardin Ridge. Even better you can make reservations.

We really enjoy Hardin Ridge due to less traffic and bigger sites. This trip we stayed in BlueGill 133, which was ok. The site was big, but the placement of the fire pit was odd. Plus the pit wasn’t buried in the ground so when we had a fire we couldn’t see it or stay warm from it. The pit was probably 2 ft above ground, but in addition to that the park ran out of firewood mid weekend and was sending people 20 minutes out of town if you needed it. We ended up driving to get some but some other people couldn’t because they would have had to pack up to drive. The weekend we were there was their Fall event and trick or treating which was fun. We didn’t have any kids but handed out candy and enjoyed seeing all the costumes and families participating.
