Callie’s Lake and Campground

Made reservations almost a month in advance, arrived on given day and could not level our RV on a very unlevel lot couldnt even get our steps to come out as they hit gravel. Tried to move the RV around for over an hour and finally went to the store to inform them of our trouble. We were told they had no other space for us, so we had no choice but to leave. This was NOT our choice, they did not deliver what they had promised, yet no refund, or even a partial refund was offered. 3 years being full time on the road, this was a first such experience, and their lack of concern made us not happy.

.UPDATE Callie and I have talked and our issues have been resolved. We visited Callies Lake& Campground, no overnight stay

Our first outing in our pop up. Camped in early March and Thursday we were the only ones at the water+electric sites, but many more came in on Friday.

Straightforward facilities but well done with the bath house, roads, signage, and hookups. A quaint lake, good store, and wonderful pizza!

We have Verizon and had 3 bars of LTE, but sometimes struggled to load rich content. As a remote worker I purchased 72 hours of WiFi for $20, which was great but only worked for 1 device.

It’s not like some parks that is basically a parking lot, but I imagine it would feel crowded in peak season. We’d definitely come back and would aim for the lakeside spots.

My children and I camped for the first time and were so happy we picked this place. The owner is so lovely, and the camp shop is bomb! Best pizza ever! I will return again!

The site was so small at site 7. We have a pop up camper. They asked if we could fit our pop up camper in the site. I said yes. Thats all that mattered if our camper could fit in the toaster slot. We paid 165 for 3 nights and stayed somewhere else because it was such a bad site. Ps. I'm not picky. Save your money.

Stayed here two consecutive weekends, electric site only in the back (field - back in spaces). Was a little tight making our way to the back on the small road, but take it slow you’re ok.
Was quiet and all to ourselves first weekend, second was a Jeep invasion with many tents all in the sites. Great people, helpful and nice. Karaoke on Saturday nights (mostly kids). All the spaces up front full hookup are permanent campers. Close to all RRG hiking and dining, etc. would stay here again!

From the time we drove up and checked in, we felt like family. Callie and her family are incredible hosts. Highly recommend checking this place out if you are planning to visit Red River Gorge or Daniel Boone Backcountry Byway.

Was very happy my site was level and in a great spot with a view of the lake in front. Bathrooms and store were clean and had food. Bbq we tried it all!

RV park in the front, more primitive tent camping in the back. There is a pond/lake just big enough to fish and swim in, and there’s a rope swing the kids loved. This place has pretty good food made on site and had karaoke on Saturday nite with a good crowd. The spots were good, if not a bit close together. We didn’t have a picnic table but we brought a table so it wasn’t a big deal for us. Also I think they would get you one if you didn’t have one. Staff was great. Fire pit was Flinstone style: just a ring of rocks. But it got the job done. Very close to Slade and Stanton.

Staff was helpful, firewood bundles were small and expensive. Entire property is a mud pit the driveway is nearly impassable….

We stayed in the primitive area. Bathroom and showers were very clean! Host was very friendly. Beautiful area. Would definitely recommend!!

Awesome place with basketball hoops, playgrounds, lake for fishing, kayaking and even hookups for campers. They have a fully-stocked camp store and even have fun themes such as karaoke night! Not to mention it is right outside of DBBB. An issue I had was it does not have dispersed camping (free), only primitive (tent) so the filters on this app were wrong. The biggest issue was there was no quiet hours so groups are singing along and howling up into the early morning (4am) without the staff intervening.

If you are looking for a clean campground with great amenities and some of friendliest people you will ever meet you have to try Callie’s Campground!! They have a country store that serves meals and carries supplies you might have forgotten. They have everything from full service to primitive. Each camper site comes with a fire ring and picnic table.

This was a nice campground near the red river gorge. My friends and I stayed at a primitive campsite # 10. I’m not sure if the numbers really mattered because I didn’t see any clear listing of numbers and they told me when I arrived if I can’t find a spot with a fire ring then to text them and they would come out and build one where I was camping. But my spot had a rock fire ring, a picnic table, a small charcoal grill, and a lamp post. We were some what close to other campsites but our site had enough trees surrounding it to make it fairly private. This is a great family campground, they had small lake (I’d call it a pond) for swimming and fishing (it was $5 for an adult to fish, and catch and release only.) There was a play ground for the kids. They had a small store with camping supplies and they served food. Staff seemed to be pretty friendly as well. It looks like before Covid they would have fire works and live bands.

Callie’s is the perfect spot for a quiet place to stay! The views were pretty and our spot was right on the lake. They also have a little store which was really convenient!

All I can say is, there’s not a better campground around with the service, the amazing food, and all the convenience of everything you need right there!! The views of the mountains, the sunrise, the moon everything is so perfect!

Been to a bunch of campgrounds and this is by far our favorite! The staff are more than helpful, so nice and welcoming. We have been two times now and plan on going back soon.

They have a general store stocked with necessities you may have forgotten. The store also sales live bait to fish in the lake with. The best part about the store is the food!!!

If you are looking for a laid back camping experience this is the place for you!
