I always have a good visit to Twin Knobs and this visit was near the end of the season. The camp ground was having Trick or Treat on Saturdays and it was great seeing all the children dressed up. Had a good site A39 and great camp hosts as well. There are a couple of things that I didn't agree with and that being the restrooms being "family" restrooms and there were NO heat in the bath house. Just a little heat would have been nice when it was in the 30-40 degrees several days.

The organization of the campgrounds and the bathroom facilities were excellent. We have a great time at Daniel Boone!

Lovely sites but with the new paving on the road the drop off on the edges made for a tricky parking job. We were in the A loop. Also, might want to trim some of the foliage around the A loop sign. We missed it on our drive in. Hopefully whatever the issue is with the dump station will get resolved so both lanes are open.

Stayed at F7 in Oct 2024. Great site. Flat, well shaded, double capacity, entry angle made it easy to back boat in. Plenty of room for tent, canopy, grill, and two picnic tables provided. This is a primitive site so now electric, sewer, or water in the site. But shared loop water spigot at end of driveway was very convenient. Sufficient privacy on both sides, but not at entry (looking directly at site across road). Fire pit located on entry end, so again, not as private as desired. Grill rack on fire pit is too high for my liking & doesn't flip back out of the way.
Bathhouse close & clean. Four bathrooms total. Know two have showers, not sure if other two have showers. Bathhouse shared with another loop.
There is a trail at rear of site that leads to the lake.
Be sure NOT to leave food or trash out as signs say. Racoons got into our trash, and stole the Ritz crackers out of the canopy! Hilarious. Trash dumpster is a little past the bathhouse.
Checkout is 11:00am, wish it was 1:00pm. At 11:00am on the dot campground folks stat driving their carts around the loop, assume they are checking people are leaving. My understanding is a different group has managed the campground for a couple years now. Seems they are doing a good job.
Would definitely recommend this site specifically for tent camping. A smaller camper would be OK too for dry camping.
