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 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.

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.

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.

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

I LOVE Hardin Ridge. I've been camping there since 1986! This particular visit was extraordinary - the weather, the site, and, most of all, a very kind staff member who helped me! Rusty went above and beyond, and put some gas in my motorhome as the computer was indicating I would not have enough gas to get home - or even to the nearest gas station! In the midst of clearing and cutting trees, he took the time to assure my safety and calm my fears! And with a smile!

Amazing cap site. One of the best sites we have ever camped at. However, the only problem we had were the showers. Barely any warm water and were very dirty. Which was surprising because the bathrooms were very clean right next to them. Will camp here again though.
