Well kept campground with a pond. Bathrooms were well maintained and clean. Lots of stars at night!
Traveler
We stayed one night— fine for the quick in and out. Did NOT have sewer hookups as advertised, so plan to dump before you park if you’ve been traveling. Spaces are narrow— though we were able to navigate the area, I wouldn’t necessarily call it “Big Rig Friendly” Road behind is loud but the campground itself was quiet.
Guide
Expensive for what it has to offer. At 48.00 bucks a night yes they do have WIFI in the RV section. They do have concrete pads. It’s a shame they are worthless they are to small to park the average RV on an are on the wrong side of most rigs unless you pull in 1/2 the sites the electric is on the wrong side. The sites are gravel and not level the rest rooms are new and nice. The horse stalks are very nice. If you have a large horse trailer type camper your screwed the sites are small so that only leaves you with the RV sites that are a few 100 feet away from the stables If you want to walk threw the drainage ditch add about 300 ft if you don’t want to walk threw the muck. It’s a shame when they paved the entry road they didn’t spend a little more. “Grant money “ or tax money an do it properly. The main play ground is extremely nice. About 1/3 Mile walk. They do have a small playground in the rv section. For horses again they have a nice setup for big RVs it Sux they have a dump station. Situated in between the entry road to the Fkatwood rv section and equestrian area The main lake is nice you can rent kayaks canoes. Or use your own boat. The boat ramp is nice the other end of the lake at the flat wood rv section. Is t really a lake it’s a back water shallow mud hole depending on the time of the year. Mosquitoes the size of jet fighters. Will rather eat you alive or carry you off. “Lol sorry could t resist “ it gets bad the park is clean and well maintained Except for the camp sites

We absolutely love this campground, very friendly staff and well kept and clean!! They are pet friendly and allow portable fences.
RangerGood enough spot to stay for the night in a van/RV. Sites were a bit cramped, but level. Bathrooms and showers available.
Guide
We stayed two nights in our small mobile home. The pluses were electric and water hookups, and the beauty of the area. The trees were at peak color! The minuses were that some of the sites were very narrow, and some had a huge drop off from the camping pad to the grass. You almost have to drive there and look at the sites one by one to make sure what you're getting! Having said that, the area is well lighted and boasts a beautiful (though not really as easy as advertised) trail around the lake.
Guide
We had the most amazing time and actually ended up extending our stay here because of how lovely this spot is. Secluded and tucked away along the river. Very clean sites, both back-in and pull-through. Full hookups. They have live music and a food truck on Saturdays. Entry is by card-swipe only, so very safe. Peaceful spot without much noise. Little trail along the river to walk.
Scout
Loved this campground growing up! We tent camped and our relatives RV camped. However they have cut down most of the trees, the facilities aren’t maintained very well and the campground/park looks more run down than ever. It’s sad but I hope they update and maintain it more in the future.
TravelerNice pull through close to the pool and bathrooms. Quiet during the week.
ScoutThis is a super clean campground. Like amazingly maintained. If you are looking for a family campground I wouldn't stay here. This is not a kid friendly place. There is not space for them to run around. There is supposed to be a playground but there isn't which is why I did 4 stars.
If you want somewhere clean, to stay in your camper or just in a chair right outside, This is perfect. If you need somewhere to be for a night to leave the next day it's great.
It's not a good campground to explore or do anything at. Not a good one for kids under the age of 16, there is just nothing to do. When we were here 2 if the 3 trails were closed. We won't stay here again because it just isn't a good fit for us. But if you aren't looking for a family campground, then this is probably ideal for you.
ScoutSites too close together. Clean showers and restrooms. Not much for a family to do.
No playground for the kiddos, a small water hole for catch-and-release fishing.
Really nice for off-site attractions (Creation Museum, Ark Encounter)
No The Dyrt discount, Did offer Senior and Museum discount of 10%
GuideWell this is our last stop before we go home. The campground was very nice. Lots to do for the kiddos. Worth going back for a longer stay.
TravelerIt wasn’t exactly rustic but you couldn’t ask for much more just 10 miles from the ark . They have a few hiking trails and a creek the kids caught crawfish in.
TravelerGeneral Butler State Park it’s about my favorite park, it’s clean,  And the camping spaces aren’t real close together, and the restrooms are clean It’s quiet and it’s close to home.
ScoutStayed overnight here just for a quick stop on our way from Wisconsin to the Smokey Mountains … bathrooms were in pretty rough shape and not cleaned at all. For the price it’s not terrible, but not clean at all.
GuideThe sites here are not level. We used our normal 2x green blocks for the Jack, but needed all 10 of our leveling blocks, plus 8 paving stones to get the appropriate height.
Despite advertising, there is no dog park. There are a ton of dogs, so this would’ve been nice.
The river and waterfall makes it feel like a tranquil place. The walking trail by the river is nice, we walked it almost every day.
Live music and food trucks every Saturday are a nice touch!
GuideRecently looked at staying at the RV Flat Woods section. They haven’t done any camping upgrades. To the RV section the electrical. Is on the wrong side if a few sites. So you will need 25 ft 50 amp extension cord. The sites are Not Paved. They are Nit full hook up most of the pads they poured are in the Wrong position for a 5th wheel. For 45.00 a night. Your better off going to anyone of the Kentucky or Ohio State parks. They do have canoe rentals. and a huge frisbee golf course. “Rolling eyes “ really. They spent money on upgrades. Mainly on planting grass and walking loops. The few RV sites. Are gravel. Un even un kevel. And Over priced hasn’t changed for the past 4 years other than the price going up. The park area fir day use is nice. Ball field upgraded. Boat ramp. Same location just upgraded. With better automatic gate. Again the park is nice. But the rv section SUX. Especially fir 45.00 a night plus

This campground is nicely maintained. Has a nice bathroom and shower facility. The playground is nice and has a pavilion right next to it. I have a small trailer which is easy to level up but most of the sites are not very level.
RangerOvernighted here with my horses on my way south for the winter, but will definitely be coming back and spending more time. Stall accommodations are excellent, even include bedding. The camp Ranger/host, Larry?, was incredibly helpful and kind.
TravelerNice quiet out of the way campground
TravelerFun little place. RV sites and tent sites lakeside. Fishing, ducks. $5 swimming pool nearby. $20/night tents. Showers and restrooms. Nice parks nearby for equestrian, playground, disk golf course. Huge mall nearby in Simpsonville KY. Drivable to Louisville. Stop at Wings n Rings, yum. Highly recommend. Closes for winter Oct 31 to tents.
RangerPark is well maintained. Nice sized pool and very clean pool area. Park has a playground and dog park. Lots of space between campers with cement patio, fire pit and picnic table and lots of trees. We had no issue pulling in our 42’ 5th wheel. We came in after hours and our name with sits number was posted on the door and plenty of maps for the park. Nice layout! You could barely hear a train off in the distance which sounded cozy. Campground is about 30 min from Madison and Ohio River is across the street. Only con- trash cans are like in a whole different country and hard to get too. Would stay again!!!!!
GuideI’m in a class a 35 foot motorhome. Live less than 30 mins away. Glad I checked it out I will come again. The Bathhouse is super nice and clean. The sites I’m at are on a hillside so think theatrical style site. None are level looking so you will need to know what your doing. I’m o level your rig. The lake is in view to each site. The tables are all concrete and big but useable. The fire pit is way to close to my rig for comfort, I’ll save the wood. I was happy for a quick fix. So yea I will be back
GuideThis is a small campground with only one bath house. They are working to make improvements. It’s nice and quiet here. We are staying here so we can go to the Ark Encounter. Not a lot of camping available around here.
TravelerCampground is OK. You're literally on top of each other. They put a huge RV with huge jeeps and trailers backed up a foot from our car and tiny tent. I was afraid they would run us over while we slept. There were open RV sites everywhere, so putting them a foot from us made zero sense to me, I dunno. Made it quite difficult to get our equipment out of our car and back out our car when we left. I can't imagine the RVers appreciated tents dispersed throughout.
GuideQuiet lil place clean showers and bathrooms extremely friendly staff who will go out of their way to help you set up. (Was offered hoses and power cords if needed). I stayed in 4A and leveled with ease . It’s a back In Only but they are there with you to guide. Dog friendly which is a big bonus. Has some on site cats too. We are 36 class A but had many different sites available and some great looking primitive sites as well. We will be back to relax and get back to nature.

We enjoyed our stay at Camp Nelson RV Park. It's a smaller(ish) park with quite a few permanent sites. A lot of the permanent sites are older campers in need of some TLC.
The campground has a very nice pool and is very quiet. A bit tight for larger rigs (ours is a 40' DP). The owner is very friendly and has several younger folks working there that are very friendly and accommodating.
There was a slight mix-up with our site when we arrived, but the young lady that was guiding us returned to the office and found us a very nice alternative site for the duration of our stay. They have a small campground store at the office that is well supplied with the necessities. Off the beaten path, quiet, and friendly....what more could you ask for???
