Redneck country

**The Narrows Recreation Area** is off Ky 31E outside Glasgow, Ky.

This is Redneck farm country at its best. Surprisingly I saw no signs for mud bogs though there were plenty of tractors and corn.

The Narrows are located on Barren River Lake. The area offers a Boatramp with day use area including a large pavilion, playground, single picnic sites, restroom and nature trail. Directly below the parking area is a large marina.

Co-located is The Narrows Campground. A mid-size , two loop area with beach, all electric sites and sand volleyball court.

A loop has mostly shaded sites, the outer loop has more space between sites. A loop sites do not have direct water access but you can walk down to the beach.

B loop has several sites that have direct water access and you can "park" your boat nearby. Many of the sites are not level so bring your blocks.

Nice campground 

Nice

We camped here because of the easy access to the lake! Very friendly staff and the campground was easy to get around, especially on the golf cart. It was a little tight and traffic can get backed up within the campground when more than a few people are trying to park, but other than that it was great. 

Cute Campground 

50 amp &amp; sites not too far from Barren River boat ramp. Sights are close to one another. Dump station is not ideal with long campers. 

Pros: Beautiful, shaded campground

Cons: No Wifi, dump station busy when leaving with line, gravel lots.
