This is a fantastic campground! Beautiful and quiet, mostly for tents. Nice variety of sites with some hike-in to camp right by the rushing creek, others drive-up and a couple with electric hookups and one with full hookups for only a very small camper. We brought our teardrop and loved it! Cool even in midsummer with all the shade and mountain air. Love the rhododendrons all around!

We reserved an electric site at this campground to be near Louisville and Bourbon distillery tours. However we left and drove late into the night to reach another place to camp because this one was so disappointing. Sites were crammed close together. The picnic table for one site was right next to the picnic table for the next. There was barely room for our teardrop and SUV in the driveway. There’s no scenic view. The bathhouse is loud. The electric and water hookups were WAY too far for our cord and hose to reach.

We value nature and privacy and we loved this campground! We were looking for a campground with electric hookups for our teardrop near Mammoth Cave due to forecasted 97 degree temps. This is about an hour away and was very peaceful. Sunset over the lake was spectacular and we loved watching all the birds here. Right from our camps we could see a trip of Redheaded Woodpeckers playing as well as a mama Northern Flicker feeding her babies. We even saw a giant Pileated Woodpecker! There were also herons, mourning doves, ravens, and more! Sites are close together without a lot of shade but this campground was very quiet and peaceful mid-week. Stars at night were beautiful.
