We do not like the new time for check in it is 2:00 and check out is 11:00 so that really cuts into your time, which is not cheap. You have to arrive late or pay to arrive earlier and then if you want to spend anytime on the lake at all on say a Sunday check out you would have to pay for another night. Just don't like the new rules on time. I mean if someone is not on the camp sight why can't we go ahead an occupy it sooner. Glad there are other campgrounds in the area.

Our favorite campground in KY. The facilities are clean, the space between sites is ample and the lake is incredible.

This was a peaceful park. We enjoyed the wooded path around the lake which could be accessed right from our campground.

We had a great time camping a few weeks ago. I had registered for different days and they were so kind to work with me for the days we needed. Site was very clean. Bathrooms were very clean. Every one we encountered (workers) were friendly and kind. Only small complaint, they start early with leaf blowers! Also, the new early checkout time doesn't leave much wiggle room to prepare. Basically wake up and breakdown your campsite! Of course we will be back!
