This was our first time at Holly Bay. We had site H16, which only had 2 other campsites within view. The steps down to the lower campsite are a little steep, but that was the only issue I had with this spot. I would stay here again. We drove around the entire campground and I definitely prefer the G & H loops as they seem more secluded and more spacious than the other loops. But almost every campsite looked great. G loop has a bathhouse with showers, while H loop doesn't have showers, only toilets. We didn't have a lake view from our spot, but others in our loop had nice lake views (H5, H6, H7, H11). Holly Bay is a well-kept campground and almost every site was level. After staying here, we understood why it is so popular.

Great campground on a beautiful lake. Camp hosts were very friendly, sites were super spacious with privacy, campground was clean, boat ramp easy to use and really convenient. Definitely top 2 campgrounds we've ever stayed in in Kentucky - We will be back!

The campground was very peaceful and relaxing. Our spot could have used a little gravel work but as long as you don’t have mobility issues it’s ok. I will say the bathhouse in G loop could use a little tlc.

I've camped for over 40 years and by far this is my favorite Campground! The sites are spread out so you're not right next to others. Stayed at E7 this time. Good level spot, close to bathhouse, but not too close.

Loved the campground... sites were spacious and well maintained. Laurel River Lake was better than advertised - Clean, clear, cool water, perfect for paddling and swimming.
Only one issue - showers not in all loops (we stayed in H).

We love staying at Holly Bay. This visit most definitely did not disappoint. The camp host, James and Phylis’s were so so sweet and went above and beyond! The restrooms and showers were very clean
Thank you for our experience
