Best RV Parks & Resorts near Greenup, KY

Multiple RV parks surround Greenup, Kentucky with varying levels of hookups and amenities. Little Bear Island Campground offers water and electric hookups with 50-amp service for larger motorhomes, situated alongside the Little Sandy River. Valley Breeze RV Campground provides full hookup sites with 50-amp service and accommodates big rigs on their year-round facility. "Every RV site has a level concrete pad, making setup easy," notes one visitor about Virginia Point Campground, which features water, electric, and sewer connections. Oasis Point RV Resort includes full hookup sites positioned around a man-made lake, though sites are primarily gravel with minimal shade.

Seasonal considerations affect availability throughout the region, with Carter Caves State Resort Park's campground operating only from April through October. Most parks accommodate pets but require them to remain leashed, and several prohibit tie-outs. Cell service varies significantly, with some campgrounds like Shawnee State Park reporting virtually no signal. Propane refill services are limited, with Lazy Village Campground among the few offering this amenity. A camper mentioned that train noise impacts some riverside locations, writing "trains blowing their whistle every 20-30 minutes all night long" near railroad crossings. RV dump stations are available at most parks, though Valley Breeze and Creekside RV Park have limited overnight stays for travelers.

    Greenbo Lake State Resort Park

    It’s pretty nice

    A lot of their sites have full hook up but not all of them. Read the details of the sites when booking. Some of the sites have really steep grades and aren’t big rig friendly.

    Check in was a breeze had out car tags on our post.

    They do have a full-time camp host on site.

    I didn’t use the shower 🚿 house but they do have a couple on the grounds.

    They have a putt putt course but bring your own putter and ball.

    There is Verizon service but it’s spotty.

    They do have WiFi but it’s very slow and not secure.

    Place is very pet friendly. The people we have met here are great.

    Sites are wide but really close together.

    Wildcat Camping and Fishing

    Very Nice Place

    We have been here for a little over a month now. Nice level gravel sites with grass around them. Full hookups 30/50A at each site. Wifi. Could accommodate at least 40+ foot 5th wheels. There is a paylake with small shelter areas, playground, horseshoe pit, game room, community gathering area, store with snacks, drinks, tackle and other items. There are restrooms, but no showers or laundry. Beautiful area. About 11 miles to Paintsville, which has all the stores you'd need. Some closer convenience stores. Johnny and Regina, the owners, couldn't be any nicer. Very good monthly rates. Can receive mail and packages.

    One-Night Adventure: Our Shakedown Trip in the New Travel Trailer

    Campsite Review for Site 6 – Gateway to Wayne National Forest

    Our recent camping trip at this campground was an excellent way to immerse ourselves in the natural beauty of Wayne National Forest. The serene forest setting provided a perfect backdrop for a relaxing outdoor adventure, with the campground offering all the basics needed for a comfortable stay.

    We stayed at Site 6 in our travel trailer, enjoying the ease of a pull-through site. Although the water and electric hookups are on the opposite side unless you drive through the loop the wrong way, this setup has an unexpected benefit—it faces directly toward the woods. This orientation allowed us to savor the tranquility of the forest, adding a layer of privacy and a more intimate connection with nature.

    While the sites are decently sized, they are closely positioned with minimal separation, which might limit privacy in other areas. However, the majestic surroundings of Wayne National Forest more than make up for this. The proximity to hiking trails, wildlife sightings, and the peaceful ambiance of the trees create an immersive experience that’s hard to beat.

    All in all, this campground is a fantastic base for exploring Wayne National Forest. The combination of basic amenities, convenient access, and the enchanting forest environment makes it a great spot for nature lovers and outdoor enthusiasts alike.

    Lake View Campground — Beech Fork State Park

    Beautiful and secluded

    We visited in the end of October 2021. The colors and the views were spectacular. The drive into the park was very curvy mountain back roads. The site included a fire pit with grill and a picnic table. There was a fair amount of space between sites. Approximately 50-75 feet apart. The bath house was nice but could use a little refreshening. There are many activities including a shooting range, frisbee golf course, swimming pool, playground just to name a few. With Verizon as our service provider no cell signal was available at the park. Overall, we give 3 stars. Minus one star for no cell service and minus another star due to maintenance. Overall, very nice park.

    Sandy Springs Campground

    Amazing experience at Sandy Springs Campground

    Sandy Springs Campground is this awesome little gem on the Ohio River. It is a small family owned and family oriented Campground with some amazing views of the foothills of Ohio and Kentucky. The Campground is super clean and well maintained. They have full hookups and 30/50 Amp service. There are pull through sites and river front sites. They have several rental options and the coolest house boat over looking the river with a wrap around porch. They have really nice shower and laundry facilities. There is a pretty cool camp store there too. The best part is the friendly people and atmosphere. The owners work very hard here. They take very good care of the guests and there are always plenty of activities on the weekends and holidays. The prices are definitely affordable and can't be beat anywhere I have stayed before. Couldn't recommend a better place to stay on your next camping adventure.

    Ohio River Campground - Hidden Gem

    This is a peaceful and quiet campground located along the Ohio River. All sites have 50 amp and water hook ups. Most have fire rings and picnic tables. It is amazing to watch the river barges go by and they also have fishing available. Shower house is clean and warm!!

    Twin Knobs Recreation Area

    Twin Knobs

    This drive in camp site is a pay only and it’s best to call a couple weeks before your trip to reserve you spot! You can tent camp, pop up, or set up your pull behind. Twin Knobs is very clean and spacious campsites and most are on the water! This campground has basketball courts, a beach area, restrooms and more. Pet friendly but must stay on a leash.

    Grayson Lake State Park Campground

    Below average

    This is a small campground situated next to a golf course. There are several nice sites but others are not ideal. Our site (13) was ok, other than the scattered broken glass and trash. The main issue was lack of oversight from staff. The site next to us was completely packed with their fifth wheel, a large tent, pop up canopy, four vehicles, a kayak trailer, and a boat that was in the corner of our site. They did not leash their dogs and did not pick up after them. We didn’t complain about them encroaching on our site but felt that the campground should enforce their own rules. Another site nearby setup a construction light at night that lit up the entire campground like a stadium and stayed on late into the night. Basically, campers are left to do as they please regardless of whether it is inconsiderate of other campers. The positive is the location is only a few minutes from the boat ramp for the most popular kayaking spot.

    Four Coves Campground — Beech Fork State Park

    Lots of good sites

    Not far from home, and good choices of type of sites. Biggest negative is no wifi or cell service. But quiet, family friendly, and some sites away from activities to chill out at too.


Guide to Greenup

Greenup, Kentucky camping options stretch along the Ohio River and Little Sandy River in northeastern Kentucky. The area features a mix of coal mining history and riverside landscapes with average summer temperatures in the 80s F and mild winters in the 30-40s F range. Most RV parks near Greenup stay open year-round, with some state park facilities closing seasonally from November through March.

What to do

Fishing access: Little Bear Island Campground sits surrounded by the Little Sandy River, providing excellent fishing opportunities. A camper noted, "We fished all day and night. Caught a bunch of fish and had a catfish fry. The mountain views are awesome and for once it wasn't another RV parking lot."

Cave exploration: Carter Caves State Resort Park Campground offers multiple cave tours ranging from easy walking tours to more challenging spelunking options. "The park is amazing and I have no idea how it took me 39yrs to find it so close to home. The caves are absolutely amazing and the park has some of the best natural bridges I have ever seen," writes one visitor.

Water activities: Oasis Point RV Resort & Adventure Lake features a man-made lake with multiple water features. A camper shares, "There is a good size lake for swimming, they have stand up paddle boards and kayaks. On the other side of the lake there is a large water slide and a zip line that both end in the water."

What campers like

Peaceful locations: Many RV parks near Greenup, Kentucky emphasize quiet settings away from busy areas. At Oasis Point, a camper noted, "We have been here for a month. It's very quite, they have a beautiful lake for fishing only. Highly recommend if you need a quite spot to just relax."

Well-maintained facilities: Virginia Point Campground receives praise for its level sites. A reviewer stated, "Every RV site has a level concrete pad, making setup easy. Otherwise the rest of the RV area is gravel, without any trees or obstructions."

Family-friendly amenities: Outpost Campground & RV Park provides options for families with children. "The campground was clean, the playground needed a little attention when we first arrived but they filled in the holes and it made it so much more enjoyable for my 3 YO. The pool was a nice addition," writes one camper.

What you should know

Train noise: Some campgrounds near railroads experience significant noise. At Robert Newlon Airpark RV Park, a camper warns, "The only real problem comes with the train tracks right here. The trains are close and do blow their whistle for crossing by the office."

Weather considerations: Spring often brings rain that can impact lower-lying campgrounds. At Little Bear Island, one visitor noted, "I drove to the campgrounds but didn't stay. It was too muddy, it's a dirt road. I was nervous about getting stuck."

Booking limitations: Several RV parks restrict length of stay. Valley Breeze RV Campground reportedly limits visitors, with one camper stating, "I was going to be in the area for 5 days. I went to the office, asked for 4 nights, I have a 2021 travel trailer. He said 'overnight only'."

Tips for camping with families

Recreation options: Multiple campgrounds offer dedicated children's areas. At Outpost Campground, a camper reports, "There is a great, centrally located playground where the kids were able to run around after being in the truck for eight hours."

Swimming access: Oasis Point provides water recreation specially designed for children. "Super nice, especially if you have kids. There is a good size lake for swimming, they have stand up paddle boards and kayaks," mentions a family visitor.

Educational opportunities: Lazy Village Campground & RV Park offers unique historical features. "This is a really cool campground because it's situated on an old racetrack," notes one camper, creating learning opportunities for children interested in local history.

Tips from RVers

Utility connections: At Carter Caves State Park, hookup placement requires planning. A camper advises, "You will need extra water hose and extension cords to get hooked up in a lot of the sites though," while another warns, "Some of the sites were around 50 ft from the electric hook up."

Camping surface types: Different campgrounds offer varied parking surfaces. Oasis Point campers mention, "This is not a campground in the woods. It is on a strip mine so expect a lot of rock and no shade," while Virginia Point offers concrete pads which "makes setup easy."

Service availability: While most campgrounds offer full hookups, amenities vary. Creekside Cabins & RV Park provides water, electric, and sewer connections but has limited on-site services. A visitor noted it's "such a peaceful place to visit. Kids can play without worry."
