the camp host at H10 was great. The camp sites were well run and the bathrooms very clean.

Nice campground with lots of sites. Most sites are wooded with good visual barriers from neighbors. Many sites have an incline or decline in the driveway but they all seem to have a level paved pad at the end. No T-mobile cell service in the H loop.

The campground was very beautiful. The spot we had was a close ten minute walk to the lake edge. Each campsite was decently secluded. We were able to put our kayak in and enjoy the water. The bathrooms were clean and the showers were hot. I highly recommend Holly Bay to anyone looking for a campground in Daniel Boone National Forest!

Plenty of sites, space between them as well as foliage around most sites. Clean restrooms.
We kayaked the lake. Camp hosts were very friendly and helpful, kept sites clean.

Very clean. Well laid out. Peaceful. Nice lake with great views from some spots. Not all picnic table areas are on same level as campers so steps may be involved. Older but nice facilities. GPS gets a little lost coming in.

please consider retiring the noisy gas powered leaf blowers,battery pack blowers are much quieter. it is quite disturbing to hear that drone even from other distant loops, most times its the only non natural sound in the campground
