"It's located on the Kentucky side of Big South Fork. The campsites have a picnic table and a firepit. Our campsite was very nice and private with a big grassy area."
"The sites are well maintained and old , probably CCC built with wood steps leading up or down to your site."
$31 / night
"Sadly, there is a massive amount of trash at the bottom (as you can see in the pictures posted here) which takes away from the natural appearance of the falls."
"It’s has many (12) trails and many falls. Would definitely recommend shopping before camping, it’s several miles, and mountains, to get to stores."

ScoutThe Rangers are fantastic, and the facility is beautiful
TravelerMy son and I have been twice. The first trip was marred by car issues, but the second trip, we were able to actually camp in the Big South Fork National River and Recreation Area.
We parked at the Twin Arches Loop National Recreation Trail head, then made our way down into the valley to view the two gorgeous and huge arches there.
As the sun was setting, we found a good place to set up our hammock gear a little ways off of the trail, then we fixed our supper at a nearby over hang, and finally snuggled in for a wonderfully cold night (late march). There was ice on the trees in the shade of some of the overhangs.
It is a nice hike, plenty of interesting areas to set up camp. Fair warning, some of the "stairs" down into the canyon are steep so be prepared.
Make sure you have your permit with you while camping and have a wonderful time in this beautiful valley.
GuideHad a great stay in the water/electric section (no sewer), right on the water. It was shoulder season during weekday so most of the campground was empty. Everything worked. Laundry and bathhouses are old but work. Bring leveling blocks because of variations on each of the gravel sites. Very affordable!
ScoutWe have enjoyed our stay here at The Point Campground & Farm. Our kids had a blast catching fish in the pond and exploring the large property. We will definitely be back.
GuideThis is our second time here. I really like this campground. It is right next to the Museum of Appalachia. It's full of peacocks and mini horses and fat little pigs. I really enjoyed hearing the peacocks and donkeys in the morning. There is so much to do around in the area, too. My family lives here so it is very convenient to visit them.
TravelerVisited here in the middle of January with all the snow and I was hot tent camping. You can only set up your tent on the designated tent pad, luckily we had heavy duty stakes that could get through the ground. The entire river was frozen over and ponds were frozen too. There were a few cars that drove through the middle of the night but no issues. We left our site unattended for hours to check out the streams and rivers and nothing was missing. Lots of beer bottles left over and shattered so I have to pick up the trash before letting my dog out. There are more sites down the gravel road but we went with the first one we came to.
TravelerLove the park. Only a few campers this time of the year. Only 1 bathhouse open.
ScoutWe had a fantastic stay at The Farm RV Resort in December. The resort's peaceful, wintery landscape provided the perfect setting for a quiet getaway. The sites were spacious and well-maintained, and the full hook-ups made our stay easy and comfortable. We enjoyed crisp walks around the property, and the community fire pit was a great way to warm up in the evening. The staff was welcoming, and we left feeling refreshed and relaxed. If you’re looking for a cozy, winter retreat, The Farm RV Resort is the place to be!
