It didn’t get better for Trent camping within a two hour radius. I finally made it here and will be back.

I took my family for two nights and we were surprised how quiet and well behaved everyone was. The spots are right up on each other but no loud music, generators or drunks. Dumpster is by the corner store that also makes sandwiches if you don’t want to grill out. Fire ring and picnic table with enough room for two small tents. Bathroom was very clean and the walk to the visitor center was 10 minutes.

We’ve been here for a day trip but finally went out to camp this month: loud campers, generators running all night, and a creepy Town Car driving through at midnight. We’ll keep the visits to the day.

We finally made it hear this spring and as long as you enjoy tent camping and no RVs this is your place. We’ll be back!

We originally were going to stay at Twin Knobs Campbrougnd, but after some research, we decided to switch the reservation to Zilpo. Having recently moved to Kentucky from California was so happy to get to camp in another season besides summer. All the spots in the H Loop seemed like they would be great for a visit, but after walking around the whole section, we found H 26. It was a double spot with easy access to the lake and set up a beach fire for the night. The only issue was the bathroom nearest to us was shut down, but it really wasn't that much farther. Amazing seeing the Milky Way one evening.
