Views were great. Spots were nice next to the water.
Only issue, tight curve and pretty big hill at same time to get to the waste station.

Probably our first choice. Home away from home. I think the fact that it’s so close to Somerset is why we like it.

Everything was wonderful. The only complaint I have is the view to the water is very grown up an it’s hard to see or access the water! Please make it more accessible in the upper end for campers to see an access the water. Thank you!!

Well Maintained camp ground. My family visit several time every summer . The lots are nice and you don't feel cramped up. Great view of the lake. And staff is friendly

Fishing Creek is just a great place to camp. Most sites are more private than other places and right on Lake Cumberland. Easy walk to water. Camping attendants Teresa & Gene do a wonderful job.
Would be nice if WI-FI was available.
