Enjoyed a week at this beautiful campground! Wonderful site at A4, accommodating our 40ft RV with plenty of shade and room to spread out. Very quiet spot right near the Camp Host--Rose and Pete were super hosts, answering all our questions and making sure we were happy during our stay. Counting our blessings for the kind help the hosts offered us during a personal dilemma on check-out day...very blessed! And can't leave out their furry, four-legged "welcome wagon" Moonshine. :) As for the cleanliness of the campground, just amazing! Volunteers are on board as well, making sure there are clean campsites, restrooms and showers! The grounds were monitored day and night by the hosts throughout our stay and we felt very safe. The area is very nice, lots of trees and good areas to walk or ride our bikes. Trails and creeks, the Ohio River...plenty of nature to observe nearby! The wildlife and birding opportunities are great! The camp was conveniently located near Fort Knox base where we were visiting our soldier. Less than 30 min away, Elizabethtown was bustling with countless restaurants and shopping areas. Visited the nearby Bernheim Forest and Arboretum which has beautiful scenery and trails upon trails leading you to the impressive giants living within. Plenty to do while camping here! Will definitely visit this campground again if the opportunity presents itself and highly recommend it to others.

Took my family for their first camping trip this weekend. So many fun activities planned for the kids during the month of October. I was impressed with the friendly staff members and also how clean the bath houses were. Ms. Rose was wonderful and answered all my questions. We will be back!

Outstanding experience from beginning to end. Met with family from across the country for a central getaway. What a great find. Great accommodation for RV's and tents alike. (Really cute cabins available). Clean, safe, quiet, beautiful. All the staff were respectful, service oriented and friendly. We will stay there again when in the area.

Staff was very rude when I got there camp host showed me where my camp site was and I popped my tent and started to make a fire in the fire pit the camp host drove up on his golf kart and yelled at me telling me to get out of my tent now and to put the fire out there is a no burn notice I told him I'm sorry nobody told me and he said if he tells me again he will call the cops and made me put the fire out with water the whole time using a very loud voice and very rude later the older couple next to me started a fire and the host came over and politely said there is a no burn notice just go ahead and let it burn out no big deal you guys enjoy your night. After hearing that I felt like I was discriminated against and it ruined the whole trip which was my birthday present from my family to celebrate my birthday and by far it was the worst birthday I ever had don't recommend ever going back there until they change the camp host I was very disappointed to say the least.
