Since 1987, Elkhorn Campground has been family owned and operated.  We are located in the capital city of Frankfort, Kentucky on the banks of the Elkhorn Creek.  The park is open from April 1st thru October 31st each year.  Limited camping sites are available during the winter months.  There are 125 sites in the park of which 109 are paved.  Sixty-one sites have full hookup, including cable TV.  Extra long pull thru sites are available for big rigs and campers that are towing.

We are a family oriented campground with amenities to meet each family member's needs.  Everyone can cool off at the pool, or perhaps enjoy a quick game of putt-putt.  The campground also has horseshoes, volleyball, and basketball courts available for the young and old.  Children can enjoy the large playground including swings, slides and other equipment located near the general store.  Hand-dipped ice cream is always a treat after a day of fun in the sun.  Dinner can be a quick "catch" from the Elkhorn Creek with a relaxing game of shuffleboard as the sun sets. 

A pavillion is available that seats 200 people for camping clubs.  A huge fireplace and portable walls help keep the chill off on cool evenings in the fall.  A mini-arcade is also available in the pavillion.

Sites can be rented on a daily, weekly or monthly basis.  There are limited monthly sites available in the park.  Call ahead for reservations for your next family get away.

Elkhorn Campground

Very nice campground. Great place for families with young kids.

Very nice and clean

I absolutely love this campground. There is a great deal of things to do with the kids(water wars and different events for them to participate in) the scenery is great and the owners are fantastic.

Best family oriented campground 

From the kayaking , to the fishing , great place!

Get get away!

We only stayed one night but would definitely return. We got a pretty leveled site right on the river. Very helpful and friendly staff. 

Very Nice Campsite

Great campground !

Great staff with friendly service where they try to help you in anyway possible.  Family enjoyed putt putt, but the pool wasn’t opened when we were there.  Lots were mostly level with full services, but backed up to RV storage field.  Would return again and try a different lot.  

Great Service 

We just stayed at Elkhorn Campground last weekend. 

  

On Thursday before we left, the forecast showed we would be getting rain all weekend (bummer). On Thursday afternoon, the owner called and asked if they could move our lot, because where they had us, was known for holding water when we got steady rain. I was so impressed with how thoughtful they were and so appreciative that they moved us to a different spot. 

  

We stayed on site #41. It was a short walk to the beautiful Elkhorn Creek (at the back of the campground). Perfect little spot for fishing (you will need a fishing license to fish, as it’s public water). 

  

As I stated before,  It rained most of our stay, so we didn’t get to utilize all of their amenities. There was a poll (not open yet), a putt putt golf course, a playground and what looked to be like a common area where they have group campgrounds. 

  

They had a very nice bath house. 

  

We were in a water/electric site, so we used our portable tank and walked it to the dump station for our Grey water dumps. 

  

It’s a short drive to multiple bourbon distilleries, a short drive to the state Capitol and close to the grocery. 

  

The staff was super nice and we will for sure go back.

Great little Campground in the heart of Bourbon Country

We stayed for almost a week. Loved it there.  Very quiet. Clean bathrooms and showers. We had full hookup. Putt-putt was only 1.00 per person. Nice little store. We will definitely come back!

Very nice campground

Nice campground with great access to KY Bourbon.

BOURBON Anyone?

This place is well maintained and the staff are extremely helpful.    We enjoyed watching the geese float down the creek and the fantastic pool.
