Kincaid Lake State Park Campground

The boating area is nice and has your typical “outdoor “ facilities you would find at a rest area. The scenery of the water and trees are amazing. The campground is good for tent camping but iffy for others. I would definitely bring extra leveling blocks.

Breathtaking scenery 

Offers over 800 acres for you to Boat, fish, camp, hike, and swim.  Very secluded and spaces are somewhat tight. There are basketball courts, a gift shop, mini-golf, opportunity for tennis (equipment may be rented). 

Simple and Basic 

My family stayed here because we were visiting the Ark Encounter.  I’m not sure if there are closer campgrounds, but we chose to primitive camp here for our visit.  We arrived with just enough time to set up up our tent and head back towards Alexandria for dinner and supplies at Walmart.  There is not much variety and choices very close.  The RV and tent area is very hilly.  Our tent ground sloped but it didn’t bother us very much.  The campsites are very close to each other but there was only two other tent campers and they were both over 4 sites over from us. The tent area has portable toilets.  I chose to drive to the shower house when I needed to use the restroom.  The shower house is typical of most campgrounds, a few cobwebs but generally clean with shower and toilet stalls.  There are two shower houses for the entire campground.  The lake is very pretty, a few camp grounds are right off the shore.  The only thing I didn’t like was that there was no water spigot in the main tent camp area.

Hilly, beautiful and secluded

We love this place. It’s close to home so we know the good spots. Some are uneven and tight but most you have a nice yard. There is a primitive loop that you can camp
On the lake. No swimming aloud they have a nice pool for that. There is hiking fishing golf mini golf tennis and playgrounds plus shelter rentals. They have a great Halloween month. Most sites are shaded.

1st trip of season. Great campground site 80. Only camper in that section. Very pleased with site and campground. Would highly recommend

Corona Camping

I visited mid/early July and the drive in was incredibly beautiful. It’s a little bit remote and my phone didn’t really have service, but that’s my favorite kind of camping. It was predictably hot and muggy until a rainstorm rolled through. The host and staff were very friendly. There’s no drinking water in the campground. Because of COVID-19 the only park of the park that was open was the campground but usually there’s a small store where I imagine you could buy water. The RV sites are on top of a hill where the facilities and playground are. The tent sites are down a steep hill towards the lake. If you are tent camping and can snag a site by the water, it may cost a little more but is worth it! The sunrise on the lake is beautiful. Because of the steep slope down to the water, many of the tent sites aren’t all that flat. Heads up, if you are driving out in the early morning keep and eye out for the dozens of deer and woodland creatures along the roads. Also, bring bug spray. 

Scenic Drive In

A nice smaller campground. Have to watch out for the spots near the front of the campground, they offer lots of shade but can be extremely unleveled. Park has a nice lake and some good hiking trails. The pool was closed due to the Covid Pandemic. Unfortunately they do not allow swimming in the lake. 

Quite and off The Beatin Path.

One of the cleanest campgrounds we’ve been to. The site are a bit small and some close together but the park offers a lot. Golf, swimming pool, playgrounds, shelters, and a nice lake to fish and kayak on.

Nice campground and state park

We were THRILLED to leave our cicada-infested northern Kentucky home and find that this park was blissfully free of Brood X cicadas.  It was so peaceful, and we were able to fully enjoy the outdoors. 

NO CICADAS

So most of the sites are fairly level left to right. Wound suggest bring leveling blocks  the sites to the left on the main loop  65 to 73 are not the best they require more set up time the leg furthest to the left down by an old cemetery  “ folks that donated property I guess” are  nice  easily backed into.   Sites off to the right as you enter. Are again fairly level left to right.    And shady for the most part.  The inner loop not much shade.  Bathhouses are clean.  Pool was well maintained.  Park staff. We’re nice   The camper store   Meh mainly junk food.   Convenient to shopping. 20 min away.  Larger box stores are about 45 min. Walmart Lowe’s. Etc.  the lake offers boat rentals fishing isn’t to bad.  The park is clean   Safe place for campi g with children.  Two it thee playgrounds.  Dated but in good shape 

Kincade lake state oark

Rv campsite 

We stayed early enough in the season that it wasn’t very busy. The campground is up high, so it’s peaceful. We heard nice birdsongs and felt like we had a lot of space between us and the other campers.
