    Taylorsville Lake State Park Campground welcomes campers with pets throughout its tent and RV sites. Located 25 minutes from Fisherville, the park maintains pet-friendly policies requiring dogs to be leashed at all times while on campground property. Lake Shelby Campground also accommodates pets with designated waterfront sites where dogs can enjoy proximity to the shoreline. Reviews note that Lake Shelby has both RV sites with full hookups and tent camping areas where pets are allowed, though the primitive sites have hiking trails passing nearby that require keeping dogs under control. Both campgrounds provide pet waste stations and expect owners to clean up after their animals.

    Brooks RV Park offers pet-friendly full hookup sites in a well-maintained setting with picnic tables and fire pits at each location. The campground's paved roads provide convenient walking areas for exercising dogs. Campground reviews highlight Lake Shelby's lakeside setting as particularly enjoyable for pets, with opportunities to observe wildlife including herons, geese, and ducks. Most campgrounds in the region implement standard pet policies including leash requirements, waste cleanup expectations, and limitations on barking during quiet hours. Veterinary services are available in nearby Shelbyville and Louisville, with the closest emergency clinic located approximately 20 minutes from Fisherville. Many sites feature grassy areas for pet relief, though some reviews mention muddy conditions can persist after rain at certain campgrounds, particularly at Lake Shelby and Taylorsville Lake during spring months.

      Little Patch of Heaven Campground

      Could never get anyone to contact us about a reservation. Phone or email. I’m glad we didn’t because we stayed not too far down at White acres campground which was a way better set up with more privacy. This is a very small campground and you are packed in like sardines with very little shade. Would not recommend if you’re passing through.

      White Acres Campground

      Amber and her family were accommodating from the very beginning! Offered a cash price for a discount. Allowed us to extend our stay without issue. Amber even helped us provide puppy day sitting while we did some of the tours so we would not have to leave our pup in the camper. Very clean and quiet private shaded campsites. We were at the very end site 46 and was very private. Would definitely stay here again! Very convenient place to stay when you’re on the Bourbon Trail.

      Camp on the Kentucky

      Very friendly staff! Accommodating On The last minute booking. Cost about $44 but water and electric is included on our partial site. Trash on site. Clean and close to the river yet not easily accessible unless you use the boat ramp. Looks like they had locker rooms or showers but did not go in to see them. Convenient camp store on site.

      Bourbon Trail Campground

      This campground has been closed and has not been able to remove themselves from this app. They were very friendly and responded right away to my inquiry yet marked it as poor just so that folks would read this and not contact them as they no longer are open. Happy camping!

      Louisville South KOA

      Late September

      Nice, quite, and relaxing stay. Fire rings need to be upgraded. They were small and rusted out.

      Bourbon Springs RV Resort

      Quiet, and helpful owners

      Matthew allowed us into our site early and offered assistance to help with wheel chocks after escorting us to the site. Very communicative. Got a text on mowing day to give anyone time to move their items off the grass. Will definitely stay again when in the area.
