It is a nice place to camp. Always mowed and no liter on the grounds. Enjoy fishing on the jetties.

Great campground…..first COE campground I’ve stayed at with full hook ups. With our National Park Pass it was quite a bargain at $14.00.

We had a great time camping at Methodist Cove at Harlan County Reservoir. Our campsite was near the water and we enjoyed the sunsets and sunrises. The stars shining at night were unbelievable!

Nice area except very disappointed when we got there and found out the dump station was broke. Very inconvenient. If we would of known that prior we would not have gone there. That needs to be an alert on their website till the issue is resolved.
