      Bowling Green KOA

      Why would I pay that much?!

      My brother visits KOA’s all the time for camping. Me, not so much. I have a hard time paying $40 for a tent site when I can camp for free or under $20. The Bowling Green KOA, Ky is located on the outskirts of Bowling Green near the I65 and Natcher interchange. You can actually see the back end of the campground from the ramp that connects the two. My first thought when considering a stay.
      I spoke with two of the very friendly and helpful ladies in the office and got a plethora of information. So much so that I’m sure I’ll forget some of it, but here goes;) So first with your fee you recieve (you and all your group) a free game of Minature Golf a day. Next there is wifi and cable available. There is a swimming pool on site and two pay lakes with paddle boats. A dog park and short trail. Depending on the month you visit there are also special incentives to stay an extra night. In May some of your fee is donated to Camp. With a KOA card there are special incentives too and you earn points with every stay. So, all that being said I did purchase a KOA card. Though this is not my favorite type of camping it will come in handy on an upcoming trip and when I camp with my brother ;) I was pleasantly surprised that the interstate noise was mostly not noticiple. There are plenty of trees that help block the noise and offer a lot of shade. We were in a busier site at the end of Abby Dr but it was an easy walk to the two small “lakes“( more like ponds ) and the dog park and showerhouse (with dogwash station) were a short walk away. Not much else to do but a fun enough spot for younger kids. ( no “bears“ to take photos with) and not as many special activities as some other theme campgrounds. This is a nice older campground, worth a night or two visit to get away from the grind for a bit.

      Cave Country RV Campground

      Good stop along the way

      Off the freeway and very convenient. Very clean. Great dog park. Do not camp close to the railroad tracks. Loud horns in the middle of the night. Not much shade. Close to Mammoth Caves.

      Bowling Green KOA

      Nice KOA

      This KOA was easy to find by following our GPS. We checked in about 45 minutes prior to their 1:00 PM check in time and they didn’t even mention us being early. We decided we didn’t need an escort to our site as it was near the office. We proceeded to deluxe-patio pull-through site H-4 with FHUs. The utilities were nicely placed in the middle of the pad. Water pressure was good at about 50 psi. This site has plenty of shade as does most sites in the campground (CG) due to mature trees, so we did not put out Starlink. We got 4 bars LTE on Verizon and used our MiFi versus Starlink. Site H-4 has a utility box on the yard side, so we had extra space between the adjacent site. They have a decent sized dog park with an agility set up. This KOA has a lot of amenities and lives up to a Holiday KOA rating. The dog park is a nice size. They have a decent laundry room behind the office with 4 washers and 8 dryers. It’s$2.50 to wash and$1.50 to dry. They have 2 fishing ponds. The large one you can keep 2 fish for$20 and the small one is catch and release. There’s some traffic noise from I-65 and surrounding roads. Our main reason to visit the area was to visit the National Corvette Museum. We enjoyed our two night stay.

      Huggins Haven RV Campground

      Beautiful campground

      This place is a hidden gem back in the woods, the owner met us when we arrived and gave us all of the information we needed. This place has a beautiful fishing pond, dog park and a nice walking trail. Perfect for anyone stopping through for the night or wanting to spend the week. Highly recommend!

      Moutardier

      Lakeside, fisherman's paradise

      Moutardier Campground is a fisherman’s paradise. It is located on Nolin River Lake. Our site was lakeside which was beautiful (Site D6). This campsite offered electric/water hookup, fire pit, picnic table, filet table, bathrooms, and showers. There were boat ramps, a marina nearby to rent boats, and also offered a playground. Pets were welcomed (we have a dog and a hiking cat). We also had cell service (Verizon). 

      The view of the lake from the teardrop camper was awesome. We kayaked around the lake which was very enjoyable - saw ducks, and birds such as a grey heron. Also lots of fish jumping. There are power boats allowed in the lake. Many people were fishing from their boats, kayaks, or from the shore. 

      There is also a two mile hike that is in the campground called Shady Creek Trail. It looked like it had not been hiked in a while but it went through woods, small stream and had a cool rock formation at one part that you would swear is a haven for snakes. Pets enjoyed it but beware if you do not like spiders. This trail was covered in spiders and webs. No exaggeration that we cleared about a hundred spiders out of our path. 

      The campground was very well manicured and clean. Many of the sites were right on the lake. They were close together but did not seem it as they were on different levels and angles. Everyone was quiet and courteous. Bathrooms were very clean and well lit. The showers were “dated” - water stains but clean. Great water pressure and hot water. 

      There was no store on the campground but 5 minutes away was a great little restaurant called Sherry’s that we had both lunch and breakfast at. Food was delicious (fried dill pickle chips!) and one could buy bags of ice. 

      Overall this was a very relaxing campground. We met some wonderful people who have been coming to the campground for years. It is about 30 minutes from Mammoth Caves which was a great place to explore. Overall we gave the campground a 4 - lakeside and if you love to fish - it’s paradise.

      Cave Country RV Campground

      Cave Country

      This RV Park is clean and well maintained. The dog park is beautiful with well trimmed grass and large. They have a nice swimming pool, picnic tables, and fire rings. Nice large gravel pull through site and level. The Mammoth Cave National Park is 10 miles with many other attractions nearby. We stayed for a week and loved it.

    Guide to Rogers

    Pet friendly camping near Rogers, Kentucky offers sites from primitive to full-hookups with varying degrees of shade and terrain. The area sits within Kentucky's Western Coal Field region at elevations between 400-1000 feet, characterized by rolling hills and limestone formations. Campsites in this region typically experience hot, humid summers with temperatures regularly exceeding 85°F, while spring and fall offer more moderate camping conditions.

    What to do

    Trail exploration: The Twisted Tree trail at Lake Malone State Park Campground combines hiking with wildlife viewing, with one camper noting, "We park in the campgrounds and are often greeted by friendly waves from other campers, and maps and excellent advice from the camp hosts." The Blue Heron loop connects to this trail system for extended hikes.

    Cave exploration: Book cave tours ahead at Mammoth Cave Campground for underground adventures. "Reserve the all day guided tour with crawling about in small spaces for the best experience. Make sure your boots have enough tread or you won't be allowed to do the tour!" advises one visitor who found the cave system impressive despite the campground being "standard run of fair."

    Kayaking: Green River access points accommodate watercraft throughout the region. "Several companies work the Green River. If you brought your own craft they will usually meet you at the Green River Ferry parking area and transport you up river for a nominal fee," shares a regular visitor who recommends coordinating at least a day ahead.

    What campers like

    Accessible wildlife viewing: Dawn and dusk provide optimal viewing opportunities. At Baileys Point, campers report, "We have camped here for many years and all the sites are great. Checkin is quick and staff is friendly, helpful. We love that our boat can be moored into a cove very near site. Always beautiful views of Barren River Lake."

    Waterfront relaxation: Many lakeside campgrounds offer direct water access. "Sites are level clean and fairly easy to get into," notes one Baileys Point visitor, while another mentions enjoying "hanging out in the water and finding fossils on the rocky beach. Kayaking was easy and fun."

    Camp amenities and recreation: On-site activities keep campers engaged regardless of weather. Bowling Green KOA provides diverse recreation options where "with your fee you receive (you and all your group) a free game of Miniature Golf a day. Next there is wifi and cable available. There is a swimming pool on site and two pay lakes with paddle boats."

    What you should know

    Weather considerations: Kentucky's climate requires preparation for rapid changes. "Temperature variations require pet owners to monitor conditions, especially during Kentucky's humid summer months," particularly at lakefront sites.

    Site selection factors: Research campsite specifics before booking. At Nolin Lake State Park Campground, "the tent campground has spacious, level sites. The sites are located in a grove of pine trees, which makes for well shaded sites with a pleasant surface of soft pine straw to pitch your tents."

    Road access limitations: Some campgrounds have challenging entry points. "We entered the park via the 'secret' entrance, byway of a narrow road at the very north of the park, in which we had to take a single car automated ferry across the green river," reports one camper who appreciated avoiding the crowded main entrance.

    Tips for camping with families

    Nighttime activity planning: During summer months, consider later evening activities. "Fireflies are great at night. Frogs are singing in the evening," notes a Mammoth Cave visitor, explaining that these natural attractions help entertain children after sunset.

    Playground access: Multiple campgrounds offer dedicated play areas. Clarksville RV and Campground features "a pool and playground" along with "clean, comfortable, well laid out" sites, providing recreational options for children of various ages.

    Swimming access considerations: Water entry points vary significantly in quality. "The beach and beach house were just okay, not bad, but not great either," reports a visitor to Lake Malone State Park, suggesting families might want to verify swimming facilities before planning water activities as a primary recreation option.

    Tips from RVers

    Full hookup availability: Water, sewer, and electric connections vary between campgrounds. Dad's Bluegrass Campground offers complete services with one camper noting it was "a pleasant and easy full service rv park to enjoy a day of peace off the road + great overnighter. People were very nice and attentive with lots of RV manipulation help."

    Size accommodations: Larger rigs require specific site planning. "Every ammenity needed. Pet friendly with dog park for off-leash use," reports an RVer at Bowling Green KOA, specifically mentioning "great pull through spots" that accommodate larger vehicles.

    Highway proximity considerations: Traffic noise varies by location and site placement. At Clarksville RV and Campground, "if only Clarksville wasn't so close to the highway... great location, much shade, good distance between rigs, level gravel pads... just a bit noisy from the proximity to highway."
