"Tent sites have so many trees surrounding them. If you're looking for more privacy anything off of the loop will do just fine."
"Just a guess, but I would say around 1.5 acres. About 2/3 of this site is open, grassy field. The other 1/3 is shaded."
"Will absolutely come back again especially with the proximity to the city but having peace and quiet to the south. The walking trail was much longer than expected and really nice."
"There was corn hole, ladder ball, pool, walking trails, access to the river, cat fish pond, small dog park, and washers & dryers."
"The campground is near the trail to the old abandoned bridge which is well worth the hike. The fire tower has a commanding view."
"We only hiked one trail and that was the one from the campground to the nature center. It was fairly rough in spots but enjoyable."
$12 - $22 / night
"Beautiful trails for hiking, great creek for swimming, close to Louisville."
"Very popular campsite for the surrounding area. Otter Creek runs through the Outdoor recreation area. Lots of hiking, biking and horse trails. Great opportunities for fishing also abound."
"This park has a great walking trail that is wheelchair accessible and camping in spring to fall."
$45 - $50 / night
"What a nice RV campground near all Louisville and the surrounding areas have to offer visitors. It is nicely landscaped with fairy lights at night. The Manager Annie is awesome."
"Nice sized sites, reasonable priced comparied to the KOA, all good full hookups, nicely kept, and most importantly it is in a safe country setting surrounded by large trees and on a dead end road."
$23 - $30 / night
"We biked throughout the park and hiked 4 of the trails, 3 of which were pretty rugged and all had elevation changes for a good hiking challenge. "
"It's a fairly new park on the site that used to be the Indiana Ammunition Plant. Good-sized sites with a very helpful staff. I hiked trail 2 and found the waterfall and several other gorgeous views."
$5 - $19 / night
"Located conveniently near Louisville, Fort Knox, and central Kentucky area.
WIFI unavailable at this time.
Otter Creek runs next to camp as well as a small stocked lake for fishing."
"I used this location as my FOB for a weekend of hiking in southern Indiana. The campground was nice."
"Great sites close to the lake"
GuideWell I really have nothing bad to say, it’s a country setting on the outskirts of Bardstown, KY. It’s just a few miles away from the scenic parts of town.
I did not use the shower or restrooms here, so can’t really say much about those. (Since most campers these days have these)
It is a large campground and my one and only complaint/suggestion is the area where my camper was set had grass in desperate need of attention. This could and should be a really nice place with just a bit more attention.
The staff at check in were exceptionally friendly and drove us to our site.
TravelerSite #11: nice shade tree, lots of roots exposed, set up tent on stone to avoid roots. Great space between the tent sites, but virtually no real privacy as public traffic into park was steady. awesome wildlife for a park within the city: herons, geese (except for poop), ducks, turtles, beavers. We didn't see the coons but put food away every night as they visited our camp on a nightly basis.
Long way to a newer bath house, port-a-john almost as far away in opposite direction. RV spots were really tight. Shelter with electrical outlet attached to bathhouse. Indoor and outdoor pool in the other half of the park. Kayak rental available. Host friendly and helpful. Bathhouse is four units, each with sink, toilet and shower. Could have been a lot cleaner. In our five day stay, no deep clean, but always had TP. Overall, enjoyed our stay, appreciated our Luggable Loo as a backup.
Nice area, County Fair while we were there, historic downtown. Several grocery stores, thrift stores and boutiques. Renaissance festival nearby.
ScoutGreat for RV, good electric, sewer and WiFi. bathhouse a little rough but usable.frendly host. Very Quiet, nice rest 20 miles off of I65
LegendHuge state park with long roadway to various trails and shelters. The campground is very large and very well kept. All the sites are pretty much the same with good spacing between them. Most are electric only but we got one of the handful of full hookup sites. There is little shade to be found here. Rose Island is very cool- Haunting but sublime. The paved trail to see Rose Island is about 1/2 mile long hill that is very steep in parts. We took bikes and scooters but half of it had to be walked. The campground playground is small,, not much to write home about. Nice flat paved loops and sites that are good for biking. Trails look very nice. Overall it is a solid place that works for a weekend or a few days.
ScoutThe entire park is just beautiful. It's very family friendly and quiet. The sites are spacious, and there are a lot of nature things to do.
GuideSecluded camping area with horse hitch. 5 - 6 primitive spots with fire rings and tables. Very little privacy. Tents and vans only.
ScoutO'Bannon woods has just about everything in one little nook, from fishing swimming and kayaking on blue River, a beach at the park. Swimming, horse trails and lodging, electric campgrounds, you name it. It's clean and laid back
ScoutThe park needs a lot of upkeep good showers the staff is really good but a little noisy a lot of junk sitting around that people's site fights are really small and tight okay
LegendNice campground, needs some structural updates. Mostly shaded spots. Not all pads are level or very wide. Some of the tent sites are a challenge to get to and use. Minus a star due to no hot water, I would have been happy with warm but no luck.
Several trails in walking, horse or bike riding distance. Some direct access from the campground.
You can set up here and have plenty to do without ever leaving the park.
Corydon is within half an hour, Louisville about an hour.
