Been going to Cave Run since it opened 45 years ago. One change is needed—nighttime security. Once the station at the entrance closes, there is no security beyond a 911 call. Had an incident at night that was concerning and would have felt much better with security instead of leaving and spending the last night in a hotel room before returning. I love the lake and the campground, but there’s got to be security at night. No issue with animals—this concern was with humans.

Fantastic facility. Grounds were very well kept. The bathrooms and showers were the best I have ever seen at a USFS campground in over 40 years of camping in them.
Sites were large, level and very private. 10 out of 10.

We love going to twin knobs. Everyone is nice. The staff are very great. I’ve run into some issues with reserving a spot online within five minutes. The staff at twin knobs had me taken care of. I give them five stars. I would give them more, but they only let me give.

Beautiful camping lots. Nice employees working at check in building with lots of information. The lady was very kind and professional. My only concern is that not many sites have both water and electric. Only maybe two sites in the whole campground have full service. I’m just so surprised because it is a beautiful campground in a gorgeous area.

Our site was beautiful no complaints there. But quiet time is no longer enforced. There were horns blowing people yelling and running up and down the road going the wrong way in the loops as late as 3:30 am in the morning. Fishing off the doc and won't move so you can exit your boat without being worried you'll fall. Motorized bikes and others on the dock walkways,and children sitting in the road way going up the ramp from loading the boat, and no adult supervision to be found. Nothing is enforced like it used to be. I sure wish Thousand trails were still over the camp ground. It was way better then. Vista really needs to step up!

We usually camp with family on July 4th and Labor Day. We always get a double site and a single for all the family. However if you aren’t sitting on your computer the moment they release a date 6 months prior to the date you want, you may not get a satisfactory site. We love Twin Knobs. We had to take 3 sites close together which worked out ok but not what we would have preferred. We also had one couple who had a blow out on the way and had to cancel, which was probably a god send as her grandmother passed away that night. We were able to get a partial refund which we were grateful for. The host were nice and campground is well maintained. We love the lake also.

We love it here. Plenty of room between camp spots. Always clean and grass mowed. Don’t really love the push knobs on showers. Feel like you have to push it ever.y 30 sec to keep water on.

Sandy and her team were great! The spot we had reserved was not the best fit for our camping gear so she went way above and beyond to help us change to a different spot that opened up that was a better match.
The camp host Tom and his wife were the best too!
