Itβs usually quiet and peaceful at Holly Bay. The hosts are helpful and keep the sites very clean and neat in between visitors.

I would definitely stay at Holly Bay again. We are in the area once a year and now, we will look nowhere else. It was beautiful scenery, clean facilities, nice people and very helpful camp hosts. It was one of the best places we have stayed in a while.

We enjoyed our time at Holly bay. There is lots of separation between most campsite and like being surrounded by the trees and viewing the lake from our site. There is nice hiking in the campground and the surrounding area.

Loved this campground. Sites were very large and very well spaced out. No close neighbors at all even on the weekend.

We have been camping at Holly Bay for close to 35 years. No need to say how much we like it there. Our past stay was wonderful!!! There are many places to visit while there. Cumberland Falls is very close, the 1st Kentucky Fried Chicken restaurant is in London/Corbin, Levi Jackson State Park is close also. At Holly Bay there are many trails to hike, most go around Laurel Lake, but OH the sites you can see. Just sitting around the camp fire in the evening is so relaxing. This is our favorite place to camp!! Enjoy!!!
