Good size campground with both electric and non electric loops. Good number of sites. Generally in need of update. Playground was really rough. Lake provides some fun opportunities and rentals are available. Paducah is pretty close and has anything you could need.
The roads are nice and paved. Pretty busy but a spot was available and they are spread out pretty well. Bathroom facilities were decent and had showers. No water hookup but you can fill your tank at the spiggots. Electric was available at our site.
Our site was probably the worst designed one. Really strange back-in in the shape of an L over a creek with the electric on the wrong side. Probably why it was still available. But we made it work.
Arrived to find it closed. No one to talk to or call. Just closed. Same with Rhea Springs.
Arrived to find it was closed. No one to call or talk to. Just closed. Same with Jackson's Island.
We were hoping to stay there but upon arrival realized that was not to be. The east side of the road is where the camping sites would be but the road was completely washed out. It would be challenging for a jeep to make it back to some of those sites.
On top of that the river feeding Jackson Falls was all but dried up this time of year. Nothing but a trickle going down the cliff.
We headed to Glendale Lake nearby and had much better luck at Oak Point.
Small park in a cute neighborhood. 8 RV spots with electric and water. Tent camping as well. $15 / night for RV spot. $10 / night tent spots. 5 day max. Pay at the bath house, no host on site.
Single free dump station as well.
This site is beautiful. Lovely streams flow around the camp. 9 spots that are a little small and a little unlevel. Vault toilet, no faucets. Asked the host who said just to boil the stream water for fresh water. 10 - 20 miles from a paved road so be ready for that. Lots of OHVs driving around. Despite all that I really enjoyed our stay there.
The main road is nicely grated for a while. The pull offs can be extremely uneven. 4 wheel drive or tent camping recommended. There are a few sites flat enough for a rig but it was pretty full and few were available. Nice views and good proximity to national and state parks.
This was the only dispersed site in the area we found easy enough to access. It has nice loops to turn around, flat areas, and beautiful views. This was also the only spot we saw other campers which is a good sign. Theres avout 7 other campers in the nearby area but not close enough to be a bother. Plenty of room out here. The wind is great and the temperatures are perfect.
Dispersed, no ammenities. There are a few big rigs out here so should be accessible to anyone.
The road is well marked and the sites are large and flat. We got set up very easily and had beautiful views.
The temperature at night and in the early morning was very cool. Warmed up quickly in the late morning.
We stayed right next to Lea Lake and enjoyed swimming in the cold blue waters. There was no attendant to check in with so it was an "on your own feel". Also the biting flies were pretty bad.
The camp was very spread out and easy to set up in. I would definitely stay here again.
When we pulled in we were the 2nd rv there. The lot is huge so we spread out. By the morning 3 more people arrived without any crowding issues. The surrounding area is sparse and beautiful. Be careful of wildlife, though!
