"Big Bone Lick State Park Union, Ky is a very cool little park. There is a lot to do in this one little area except long distance hiking."
"There’s also some hiking and biking trails accessible from the main turnoff from the highway, so there’s plenty to do in the area if you’re stopping on through or staying a few days."
"We prefer site 18 which offers nice privacy and os next to a stream."
"This is an awesome quiet campground tucked away in northern KY along the Ohio River. There are 10-12 dispersed campsites with fire rings and picnic tables."
"The main road was nice to drive on, but the others were pretty rough. Had spots for hammocks, and the portopotty was well maintained. The spots were all pretty secluded. Great remote location!"
"Amazing place for the price and proximity to the city!! Just wish there was more hiking trails"
"Close to Cincinnati but each site is wooded and on lake front , lots to do!"
"Tent/RV sites were level and had lots of Shade and trees for Hammocks. 1.7 mile paved walking trail is great for walking, running and biking. A short 18 hole Disc Golf course is close by."
"The location is located on the lake with access to put in a kayak or canoe. The bathrooms are clean, with private combined shower/dressing stalls."
$29 - $30 / night
"Our favorite campsite for the outskirts of Cincinnati. Lots of great spots available! You can get to the lake in about a 15 minute drive."
"However I decided to focus on the positive. The trees are big and mature. The restrooms extremely clean, the shower a pressure washer. All good things in my book."
$25 - $54 / night
"Not much in the surrounding area."
"This place sits beautifully near the river and other than some bugs is family fun for everyone."
"The store was super close by and there you are not too far from the nearest town. Super beautiful and spacious especially since you’re close to the river as well!"
"Nice pull through close to the pool and bathrooms. Quiet during the week."
$35 - $120 / night
"What a wonderful experience, Teri and Mike have a beautiful area tucked away in Northern KY. Plenty of space between campsites! We stayed at Henry's Holler. It's a 4x4 only site."
"Friendly location and the grounds are supervised so quiet in the evenings."
"It was a great weekend all around and we enjoyed our stay."
ScoutSite 22 was so sloped our red levelers barely made it work. Sore needed gravel, it was mostly sticky dirt that got tracked into our travel trailer immediately after sweeping. Lots of locals grouped together in the inner circle sites that were very loud, hooting and hollering until 1:30 in the morning. This campground needs work, which a few sites were recently concreted, but many haven’t seen gravel in years. The park and lodge are fantastic, with wonderful waterfalls and trails. Too bad the extra $9 fee on top of the campsite cost doesn’t seem to be going to the campground
ScoutIt was a lot of fun, cute cabin, friendly and super accommodating staff, clean shower houses. 10 out of 10
ScoutThis isn’t a campground…it’s a run-down trailer park. The only sites for mobile campers is up front and surrounded by ratty lots full of trailers with junk all around d them.
No attention to lawn detail…overgrown and needs to be trimmed.
But that’s not the worst…there were two pre-teen boys playing around the playground…and around our lot. Right after dark, a pre-teen boy came up to our camper, slammed our entry assist handle and locked it over…locking us in the camper. Fortunately, my wife was in the bath-house. It scared my young daughters. They later came again, knocking on the side of the camper and taunting us. There were no other kids around…I then saw them go into the manager’s house….
It was dirty, unsafe, and a pleasure to leave…just gross.
TravelerVery quiet campground in a beautiful place surrounded by trees very friendly personal. Not far from the Ark endounter
ScoutNice quiet spot with trails and shade!
ScoutFacilities are good, the buffalo are fun to watch, most camping spots are paved.
GuideAbout 30 minutes away from the Ark. Easy trip on I75, about 30 minutes. Some level sites, but most seem to have a slope. When we visited, two of four washing machines were out of order as well as two of six dryers out of order. Efficient staff.
ScoutVer clean and Beautiful campground. Stayed 2 nights in April. Lovely grass and beautiful lake. Will definitely stay here again when in the area.
ScoutVery friendly staff. The bathrooms having regular working toilets and showers. The bathrooms are very nice. There is a pool, volleyball courts and a dog park. It is hot in June, so bring a canopy if your RV doesn’t have one.
