Camp hosts and staff are a pleasure to work with. Many of the picnic tables have been replaced with new tables this year! The campsites and bathrooms are kept clean.

Loved our site H19! Very spacious and wooded. Only half hour to Cumberland Falls State Park. No camp store but marina is close by. Loved the lantern poles. Plenty of room for our 34 foot trailer.

Stunning gorgeous campground! Each site has a tremendous amount of room so you never feel crowded. Water and electric, gorgeous lake and grounds, will absolutely stay there again! The only reason I did not rate it as excellent is because the bathrooms are falling apart and kind of gross and the kitty-litter gravel at the campsites makes tent camping pretty dusty and dirty.

Our site was clean, the bathroom was cleaned and sanitized a few times a day. I wish there was sanitation sites. Also, it's so hard to book a 2 week stay. All the sites are booked for weekenders. Which loses you money, because the majority of the sites are open the rest of week. I think a few loops should be reservable for long term campers, 1-2 weeks.

The sites are very spacious, youβre not on top of the other campsites. Great trails to walk, youβre within walking distance to the boat ramp thatβs in F loop, they have bath houses and bathrooms however they need to be updated. Laurel lake is beautiful and we loved Holly Bay!! We go every year!!

Holly Bay was a dream come true. The staff was amazing. The sites, while somewhat close to the neighbors, are surprisingly private. The bathrooms were meticulously maintained.
