A steep entrance hill is the first thing campers encounter at Renfro Valley KOA, a full-hookup campground in Mount Vernon, Kentucky, open year-round and accepting reservations. The climb is consistently noted across reviews, and drivers with longer rigs should take it slowly. Once up the hill, the campground runs mostly on gravel paths, with sites that skew small and, in some sections, noticeably sloped. RVs up to 60 feet are accommodated, but reviewers with trailers in the 33-foot range found that sites numbered 22-25 presented leveling challenges due to grade. Staff have been responsive about reassigning sites when problems arise. As brian puts it, "People awesome just watch your trailer in these sites."
The campground provides full hookups including electric, water, and sewer, along with showers, a dump station, and WiFi. Shade coverage is noted across multiple reviews, and some sites include patios. When the park fills up, spacing between sites gets tight, and the utility hookup configuration means some connections are shared between neighboring sites with limited separation. Campers prioritizing privacy may want to request a site accordingly.
On-site amenities lean toward families with kids. A pool, miniature golf, jumping pillow, Gaga ball court, and playground have all drawn positive mentions. There is also an enclosed dog area, which reviewers with pets found useful. The campground is pet-friendly throughout.
The surrounding area around Mount Vernon gives access to ATV trails and lake recreation, though campers without boats or off-road vehicles have noted that nearby activities require some planning. Renfro Valley RV Park sits just over half a mile away for those wanting a different setup, and Nicely's Campground is a few miles south for places to camp around Livingston. Bethany W. notes the staff was "constantly keeping the park clean and welcoming guests." Renfro Valley KOA makes the most sense for families with kids or RVers wanting full hookups who don't mind a hilly entrance and compact sites.
