Enjoyed our time here. Staff at Holly were very nice and kept a clean and peaceful campground. Restrooms were tidy. While you are here ride βThe Rattlesnakeβ from Somerset, Kentucky to Holly Bay. Laurel Lake Marina is very nice well kept with great staff, food and rentals.

We really like this location, very spacious lots with paved parking. This was one of the quietest parks I have stayed in. A lot of stuff in the area to visit and town is not far away.

Our night at Holly Bay Campground was to be our last night of a 6 1/2 week cross-countries (US & Canada) adventure, and we loved the site and the area so much that we extended our stay for one more night. We were anxious to get home, but the peacefulness and beauty of the campground enticed us to spend another day. Loved it!

We have been camping at Holly Bay since our girls were small. Now we are camping with grand children. This is the only camping area that we like. We enjoy the privacy. We do not like camping side by side with people. The facilities are wonderful. And since we like to fish, we enjoy being on the lake. The grounds are always well maintained and the hosts are very friendly and helpful.

We were right by the water's edge and could fish the whole time we were there. Hosts we're most generous with tips about yellow jackets and how to keep them from your site.

We traveled from Ohio and spent 3 nights at this campground and plan to return in the future. The campsites offer great privacy and nice facilities. The sites are spacious and well placed into the wooded areas. The nice lake and hiking trails are an added bonus to this park and campground.
