Army Corps of Engineers maintains this basic camping area along Lake Cumberland, accessible via Route 127 past Lake Cumberland State Park.

The site attracts anglers who fish from multiple spots around the landing area. Campers have access to basic toilet facilities, though amenities remain minimal compared to full-service campgrounds. The location sits directly across from Kendall - Lake Cumberland, providing lake access for boaters launching watercraft. Plan for a rustic experience with essential supplies.
