About Holly Bay

Plus, Holly Bay is ideal for activities like power boating, canoeing and fishing. The forest was named after Daniel Boone, a famous frontiersman and explorer who settled in Kentucky in the late 18th century.

The sites are very spacious, you’re not on top of the other campsites. Great trails to walk, you’re within walking distance to the boat ramp that’s 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.

Very clean, and camper sites are far enough apart to let you feel excluded. Staff was very friendly and helpful!

Campground and camp sites are very nice and secluded. We stayed in the D loop. The lake is beautiful. The restrooms are in need of upgrades. Sinks are rusty and the “water saving” push buttons on the shower are a real pain. The water stays on for literally 5 seconds at most and shuts off. I have a child in a wheel chair and the shower was impossible to use for him as well because you literally had to keep one hand on the button to keep water on. They should be equipped with a hand held shower and all plumbing needs upgraded. . Needless to say, I bathed him in the camper. There are lots of hiking trails and things to see in the campground and Daniel Boone National forest.
