The site is very level and easy to back into. I had a 38 ft. Motorhome parked with room for another car in front of the camper. It has a nice size to it for a single. Picnic table, fire ring and 2 lantern poles. Mostly shaded and I couldn't get starlink to work, so we hot spotted our AT&T. We had plenty of service to watch TV while it rained. There is a path beside it down to the water, maybe a 1/4 mi walk. Electric hookup worked perfectly and the water spigot was probably about 100 ft. from the camper. Workers are always nice and helpful. We had Elliott's pizza delivered to the camp site one night. I think door dash will deliver also. Campground was clean and well maintained. You had to cross one large tree to get down to the water. Nothing bad to say, always my favorite campground.

We camp a lot, traveling across the country to see National Parks (happy place), so we get to see a fare mount of campgrounds. Twin Knobs is by far our favorite campground. the camp sites are not on top of one another, tons of space and trees between campsites, the loops are well laid out, the backrooms are clean and the hosts are super friendly. If you like bikes, beaches, and water sports, this place gets even better! tons to do! Can't recommend Twin Knobs enough. great campground and excellent location in KY.

The cost was crazy this year for our 4 night stay. This is more than we pay for a site with water!!

We had an excellent experience at Twin Knobs. There is so much to do within the camp grounds. Our camp site was great and we look forward to staying again. Bath houses were very clean and the host was friendly.

One of the cleanest campgrounds I've been to. The sites were very large, where you didn't feel as if you were right on top of other campers. Love the camping pads, made it great for tents.

Place is clean, the beach is nice, the sites are a great size and very private. Bathroom and showers were the nicest I've seen in a national forest campground, better than a lot of private campgrounds. I did not realize at booking that although there is electric, there's no water on the site itself, which is a bit unusual. However, there is potable water at the dump station up front and spickets spaced evenly around each loop of sites, so clean water was never far away. I would gladly stay here again.
