My husband and I tent camped for 3 nights in October 2023. The host/hostess were amazing. They called before our arrival and assisted us with finding the most suitable site. They also showed us to our site when we arrived. Customer service was excellent. This is a beautiful and well maintained campground in a lovely setting with plenty to do in the area. We enjoyed our stay and plan to return in the spring.

This place is awesome!! I can't wait to go back! The park "hosts" are great. They are pleasant, understanding and more than willing to help you. Situated not far from The Natural Arch in DBNF or Cumberland Falls(both are must sees!). The campground itself is well maintained and the location is perfect, right on a quiet lake that has fishing opportunities galore. It's nice and quiet, bathrooms are super clean and the sites are space out well. There are only 35 sites so make sure to get your reservations in early during the summer months. I am DEFINITELY going back in the spring and fall.

We loved staying and look forward to staying again. The staff was great, the camp ground was very clean. Bathrooms might be a little older looking but were always clean.

I like the host. They are very nice. Campground was in excellent shape. Bathrooms were very clean. I also like the size of the campground. Not big and not noisy. I will be camping there again.
