Holly Bay, located two miles north of the Laurel River Dam, sits on the west side of Laurel River Lake. Visitors enjoy the campground for its proximity to the water and beautifully forested location.

The sites are nice and wooded. There is plenty of space between sites to give each camp a little privacy. We were a drive up, no reservation camper. They only took cash or check on-site. Camp host was very nice and helpful.

We rented a cabin during the off-season and our cabin was cute - very old fashioned. What we found out quickly that was everything was pretty much closed, including the main lodge restaurant that we had hoped to eat at.
The indoor pool WAS open and a pretty decent size. Our kids had a blast romping around in it and the next day we hiked one of the Park trails and were able to do some geocaching, which they loved.
It would be a longish walk to the Lodge pool from the cabins. I don’t know if everyone has a golf cart in the summer, but I imagine it gets packed. There was some really cool larger cabins and at least the section we were in, you had a nice view of the marina.
We found the view of the lakes beautiful and would absolutely go back a bit more during the season to take advantage of the lake activities. I say that even though we found mice droppings in our kitchen - the staff took care of it right away and gave us a partial refund.
The office never seemed to be open. We needed propane upon leaving but couldn’t find anyone. Sites are small, not level and in need of some upkeep. The hookups were poorly placed and the electric hookup was loose. When we plugged in it recessed back into the unit and difficult to plug into. They were to pick up trash at 11 but by putting it b/4 11 I always seemed to miss it.
As a frequent wheelchair and otherwise crutch user, I have enjoyed staying at Lago Linda two years in a row for the Adaptive Climber’s Festival. I was able to stay in one of the smaller structures in Bertie branch. Being near a restroom that has accessible options and having electricity right in the cabin, and sleeping in a bed, made things very comfortable. Being able to save my energy for enjoying nature makes staying here a priority.
The lake area is beautiful and I was able to walk it on crutches.
Having energy to be more active and be able to enjoy time with family and friends without being tired is priceless. Speaking of prices, Lago Linda is also cost-friendly for a disability budget.
This review is just about the campground not the lake or area surrounding it. The campground sites are ample but nothing special. I'd call them small to medium. Very few trees. Probably not a place I will visit a second time
We usually camp in a 5th wheel, but this time we stayed in the breezy point cabin. Very nice cabin, awesome view. Modern updated cabin. Hot tub, satellite and wifi, full kitchen. lake has kayaks to use. You must try this place.
I was able to get a spot right away in the field for two nights, and Jessica was very helpful in answering all my questions. Nice and out of the way perfect for primitive camping while passing through KY. They even have some nice comforts for those far from home (like a microwave)!
This place is a great place to camp either with your RV or if you are a tent camping they have a restaurant as of right now it's open on the weekends they also have a ShakeOut lunch with TV available they have two sets of bathrooms the owners are great people sometimes people getting stuck out here be honors coming home get you out my car won't start one time they came and helped me out these are great people I store my RV here when I pay the monthly storage and when I come into town like I'm going to stay in my RV and pay like everybody else like their tent camping with no electric it's very quiet here and very enjoyable a lot of hiking trails lots of events.
The location of this campground in the app is way off!
The facilities are fine. I was in the primitive area and they are OK. But don't come here expecting peace and quiet. There is constant traffic to the water area some blasting music and at night kids are running around on golf carts non-stop. I left a day earlier than planned because I couldn't even here my little radio over the bass blasting from someone several hundred yards away.
Ashley here from The Dyrt! This property offers 3 guest suites, the perfect place to unwind after traveling and camping. Check them out and leave them some love!
Ashley here with The Dyrt. We love this location and property! This lodge offers all the amenities of home, while still being deep in nature. So close to hiking, activities and water fun! Check them out and leave them some love.
Hidden gem out in the woods. Nice facilities with flush toilets, showers and laundry
Awesome place
Check in was nice. Kind staff. Clear directions. Escorted to our site. Trash pickup nightly at 5.
It is clean and well run. But just too cramped for 5 stars. Neighbors on our back side were 8 to 10 feet between rigs.
We didn't use the restroom, showers or the pool but it all looked good.
Lead-in off of the interstate was easy. Access is good. It is nicly secluded yet close to plenty of resources. Mostly pull thru sites.
But if you are looking for elbow room, you'll want to look elsewhere.
Horrible place with very hateful, nasty owners. They lied to me on a booking website, insulted me for asking about discrepancies in what's advertised, would not describe what's inside the cabin and, because I asked questions about the place, called me bigoted stuff, called me not an American knowing I'm a US citizen, and later kept messaging me their hate on the booking site, harassing me.
Beautiful, beautiful spot. One of my favorite campgrounds. An unbelievable community shelter and community kitchen. Nested between 2 mountains.
Beautiful Lake. The water is very clean and clear. Trail led right down to water. Staff was very sweet. Lots of poison ivy around campsite.
Amazing quiet campground on a lake, not many find it.
Awesome state park. Very clean. LOTS of trails and hiking spots. Water and electric hookups. Will be back again
Awesome tiny cabin, has everything you need and nothing you don’t! I’ve been coming here for years, always tent camp. Brought my dog this time, I’ll be renting this tiny cabin for future adventures in and around the gorge area!
Check in was easy and friendly, a fair number of open sites, the lake is really pretty, the showers were pretty decent. Other Campers were well behaved and it was fairly peaceful. 1/2 the park has good shade, the other half has no shade.
Nice secluded sites. A little hard to get to but peaceful once you settle in. Campsites are spacious.
Great Lake views. A lot of hiking and mountain bike trails
We stayed here with an Airstream Caravan of Kentucky. Our second KOA on this trip and in all of our RVing. Sites have utilities setup where you share with your neighbor. Essentially putting them at your front door. No privacy at all. Confirmed our practice of avoiding KOA’s.
We keep coming back because we love how peaceful our stays have been. We wanted to get out of town for the KY Derby and we did! I love the little lodge and cafe. We watched the race with owners Larry and Elaine. Elaine and Larry always make us feel like we’re visiting family. This place is very charming and improves with every visit. I know that if you call them there’s always room for one more camper!
