Staff is very nice. Most sites are permanent residents or at least paid for the year. This is really a marina with RV sites on the side of a hill. Rocky and little grass on the sites and unpleasant to walk on. Very secure. Dump site is not level, but they will pump your tanks. VERY HIGH water pressure and will cause leaks in your water system. Only 3 local TV stations. Interestingly, the only RV park I ever stayed in with their own cemetery. All shade so DirectTV a problem and no XM radio. Would like to come back but probably will not.

We camped here in site #6 in a 32ft travel trailer. The site has a beautiful view of the lake. The camp site is very level on a chip gravel surface. The camp site is kinda tricky getting into due to the narrow camp drive. Some of the other spots looked very hard to get into some big campers might have some trouble. The bathrooms were very clean but need some shelves in the bath stalls so you can set shower stuff on. Beach is yucky so you probably want to go to the Kentucky Dam's beach to swim. There isn't a whole lot to do for younger kids the campground has a slide and another child's playground toy (Manual merry go round). Dumping can be a pain as you have to make a circle to get back around to the dump station but the dump station looks new. This is a great campground if your bringing your boat because it has two boat ramps and extra parking but that parking is a short distance from the camp sites. Nice campground for people without children or children that have enough patience to sit and fish. PS Fishing from bank was great. We camped here in a Travel Trailer.
Nice small quiet campground with spacious sites, most are on the water or have a view of Lake Barkley. Bathrooms are outdated, but were clean for the most part, when found dirty it seemed to be from a group of kids that took pride in plugging toilets, etc. Once they left it was fine. I don't believe anyone waited for a shower. Not a ton for kids to do as there are no scheduled activities in the park, but with three families our kids kept busy. Nice small swim area, with some muck once you were out a little ways. Saw folks fishing from shore often away from the swim area. Rented a boat from a marina in Grand Rivers which you could see across the lake. Within about 5 miles of I-24, and would make a nice stop if in the area. Seen some larger motorhomes and fifth wheels. Easy drive to LBL. Hard to find info on the CG and it has an address listed as Grand Rivers, but is closer to Kuttawa or Eddyville. We camped here in a Travel Trailer.
This is a beautiful shaded campground on Lake Barkley. Many sites are on the water, others have a view of the lake. The owners are very helpful and friendly. Many people park their RV's here all summer, but as overnighters, we felt welcome. Our gravel and grass site was almost level. The campground welcomed children and we saw several in the pool and along the lake shore, but by 9:30, the campground was quiet. My only complaint was that despite two Wi-Fi towers, the wireless signal was still so slow and poor as to be unusable. But we would definitely return for a longer stay if we are back in that area known as the Land Between the Lakes. We camped here in a Travel Trailer.
We really enjoyed this campground. Our campsite was right on Lake Barkley. The campground has many shaded sites. There is a boat ramp located in the campground for those who want to bring a boat. The restrooms had white ceramic tile on the floors, but the restrooms were very clean. Each campsite has a picnic table and fire ring. Some campsites have tent pads. We will definitely stay here again. We camped here in a Travel Trailer.
Very nice Corp of Engineers campground on Lake Barkley. Some lakefront and some in wooded area. Sites are of good size. Some are downright huge. Paved roads in campground and actual sites or a fine chat or gravel. Most are very level. 30 amp service at
majority of sites. Water at each site. No sewer hookups. Campground was exceptionaly well kept. We camped here in a camper.
Arrived after hours with a reservation only to find someone else had already occupied my assigned spot. Ended up with the last pull thru which was right on the main entrance road with traffic coming and going all night. The park is mostly for those who have set up their trailers permanently and they are running everywhere in their golf carts until all hours of the night. The site I had was nothing more than some gravel with a broken down picnic table and a fire ring. Absolutely no grass! I would definitely not stay there again. Can't say anything about the showers and restrooms because I couldn't find any!! Not worth the money. We camped here in a Motorhome.
This was mainly full-timers and they did not seem to like us intruding. No choice of location and not a single person to deal with at check-in. The information was taped to the door. We could not hook up cable due to the fact the something was wrong with the connector on their end. And well after mid-night people were buzzing around in their vehicles. Cannot speak about the ground because we were unable to locate anyone to direct us. We decided to leave the next day for another location. We will NOT return. We camped here in a Travel Trailer.
