Everything was good. Would be nice if the water on the top of the hill campsites was in working order. Otherwise it was good camping.

We love Kentuck and come for at least one week a year. The only problem we ever have is the mosquitos can be really bad but that’s nature!!!! We use a fogger and that really helps. I do want to comment on the campground hosts. They are awesome. They do a great job keeping the outhouses clean and they are very friendly.
