Gorgeous

This review is for the ACE campground all the way down to the boat launch. There is another CG with similar name. They are not the same. 50 amp service and water. The sites are gravel. Well maintained. They are however, quite narrow to enter. Also the 9 miles in from KY 80 are hair raising.

Very compact

Great campground when not busy. Sites right next to each other. We were the only ones there the night we were there and it was really lovely. Lots of trash along the shore, very sad to see. Wonderful campground hosts!
