Baileys Point

The bath house was in need of repair. Sinks not working, none of the hand dryers were working.

Needs a lot of maintenance as far as landscape Timbers are rotten and needs replaced around camp sites. Grass wasn’t cut in June or July in area C in front of campsites going to lake.Itvwas very high. All the workers were very nice and friendly.

Overall, this is a great site. The view from this site is amazing and the camp hosts are some of the nicest we have encountered. There is a short, easy walk down to the water. My only problems were that it is really close to the surrounding sites and quite close to the main road, so if you have an "adventurous" dog it might be an issue. Also the road coming into the site is pretty narrow with trees close to the road, so larger rigs need to be caution when driving in. We had a 30 ft travel trailer and made it fine...just take your time!

It’s been 7 years since we’ve camped at Baileys Point. Shocked at how much this campground has such a negative appearance now. Half of the property never mowed. Weeds knee high. Cross ties rotted and falling apart. Trash along entire shore line. Other Corps of engineers campgrounds are very well maintained. WHY NOT THIS ONE. Shame to the management.

Attendants are very good and reasonable. They use common sense to keep the park safe and orderly. However, CUT THE GRASS!! This park used to be the crown jewel for camping at Barren River Lake. Now it is overgrown and in decline. Visitors must walk through weeds to get to the shore line. Exposing themselves to ticks and snakes. The weeds also hold water which makes them slick and increases the risk of falls. The more I reflect on the condition of the park the upset I become. This park must be well maintained. It is difficult to recommend at stay in the withering condition of what once was the best place to camp on the lake.
The woman that cleans the restrooms and showers is exceptional!!! These facilities are clean and safe. They are clearly showing their age but her efforts at maintaining cleanliness are outstanding!!! She is an absolute asset to the park and is operation.
Cut the grass, clean up the weeds and I can give an unequivocal 5 stars!

We love Baileys! Our recommendations are to have workers:
-pick up trash (water bottles, etc.) from shoreline because it is harmful to marine life
-blow leaves and debris off the campsites
-clean out fire pits that are full of ashes
-weed whack tall weeds between mowed area and shoreline to make it more accessible
