Bathrooms were warm and clean. Great on a cold, rainy night to get a hot shower. When we pulled in, it was already dark. Found our site clearly marked on a map, but then the KOA host showed up in a pickup truck and drove us to our spot anyway. Helpful! We were only there for a night, but when we got up in the morning we thought it could be a spot we'd stay in longer. Our daughter wanted to play on all the kid stuff (jumping pillow!). Couldn't figure out the cable, but we were using our camper for the first time, so I'm thinking that was us, not the cable. Only negative for us was that the site was a bit muddy, but it had been raining. Again, probably not on them. Only other drawback for us was that we didn't think it was fair to charge extra for a third person (our daughter). Felt like a bit much. - Kim KB

Overall very nice facility. This is a "Holiday" KOA. Sites were fairly spacious and well maintained (ours was large gravel/rock with good coverage so minimal tracking into RV). We had a deluxe concrete patio with nice bench and table/chairs. The bathhouse was nice and kept very clean. The office store was well stocked. The Staff was great and very helpful. - Steven Webb

What a weird shower setup. The water from the shower runs into the changing room and beyond. Difficult to get dressed after a shower when the floor is wet and even muddy. The person that designed the shower should hang their head in shame. Decent sized lots. Ours was fairly level but still needed levelers on one side. In theory they have WiFi but was mostly unusable. A small amount of freeway traffic noise but not too bad. There are picnic tables and fire rings but no park model grills. - Banjonut

Neat clean park. Easy off and on to interstate. Have stayed there many times when traveling through. - midnightpumpkin
Oct 2017 - $32.00
The sites are paved and level but very close together. The fact that it was a pull-through made it much easier to access. The interior roads are also paved. The only negative is the interstate is close and noisy. This is a great overnight stop. The manager was extremely nice. - HaveDieselWillTravel

Price very reasonable and park is clean. Not a pet friendly environment. It was stressed to us no pens or fences for your dogs outside, we usually have a little fenced area we use when we are with them outside , that is a no no. They are not allowed to go to bathroom except in one small designated area, barbed wire fencing, it is a strip of grass along a roadway which had areas of broken glass, lots of cigarette butts, nasty, no trash barrels, no lighting and the roadway is next to a weekend flea market, so lots of traffic on weekends to make your dog wait even longer to go to the bathroom in the proper area. There are signs everywhere about pets not here, no pets there and threats of instant eviction for any wrong doing with no refunds. Spaces very narrow , NO picnic tables and not allowed to put up a pop up tent to help shade you from sun. Not many trees. Our second night there we cooked outside and attempted to eat out on small tray tables, the owner comes along with a blower machine and goes up and down roadway plowing dirt and small pebbles at us while eating. Not very nice. Several campers there warned us of the behaviors and lack of tolerance of pets and apparently there are a few snitches that tattle. OK place for an overnight stop but I would prefer a Walmart parking lot to this behavior . We attempted to stay a week but shortened it. The dogs were so tense especially in the designated area. Will not be back. - George Kent

Warning. We live in our RV and have traveled all around the US. I don't know how the term RV Park got included in the description of this place. IT IS NOT AN RV PARK! It's a run down mobile home park with one or two places to park an RV. Many of the mobile homes are literally falling down and one of them was being hulled off while we were here. I didn't see a shower/restroom or a garbage station anywhere. We got trapped in a storm and had to pull off at this place. Never again. - Steve Haynes

The website explains very clearly that most of the park is for mobile homes, and they're removing older units bit by bit to develop more RV sites. It also explains about the train, which we did not mind at all when it went by once or twice (We're seniors so we wake up anyway!). The site we were on was very long and spacious. The location was fabulous -- close to Louisville and close to Bardstown. The on-site manager was helpful; the owner's were both very accommodating on the phone before and after our stay. - pbnana4

This is a Trailer Park NOT RV Park . We were in site 32 and there were RV trailers on both sides of us BUT they were permanently hooked up . Junk around and large propane tanks freestanding able to fall if touched. If I had reviewed this place on this site , we would never had stayed one night ! The trailer park is on the final approach of the major airport , landing every ten minutes ,one hundred yards away from train tracks , train every 3 hours. It was a dump, they are close to the race track and that the only reason we went there ..... Never again. - Chuck Petro

What an awful place. Then again, this isn't a campground; it's basically a few spots in a parking lot that have hookups on the side for RVs. How they get away charging so much is beyond me. I guess most of the folks who use the sites particulate in events at the expo center, arena or the amusement park next door (which shares an entrance gate). The design of the hookups is atrocious as the water was on one side, the electric was about 50 feet away on the other side and the sewer was in the middle. The sewer was also encased with a metal plate - we needed a screw driver to pry it open. We had to park at a really strange angle to get everything hooked up - it will be a real nightmare hitching back up due to the angle we're at. There is only an attendant on duty who didn't seem to know much of anything except how to run the credit card. The office he worked in was a 6x6 box with no windows and filthy (like a mechanic's office). The adjacent rest rooms and showers were no better. This is also right behind Kentucky Kingdom amusement park so it was very noisy with music blaring. Also in the landing path for the airport, so constant planes flying overhead. We only came here because due to a huge hot rod rally in town next week, everything else was booked up. We could only stay 2 nights anyway, as this area will be cleared and we'll need to move to their dry camping area, where all the hot rodders will be. - cherylbrv

Used this park because of it's location in the Louisville area. It's really not an RV park. It is a large parking lot with hookups. Most don't have sewer but a few do. There are no amenities, only hookups. The parking lot is used as the midway during the state fair in August. Other times it's available for camping. Most campers are there for some kind of a function on the fair grounds. Would probably be a good location for the Derby. - vidcity

Been going there for the last ten years to work shows at the fairgrounds. The facilities are always filthy with little or no maintenance. This year was the worst. There was no, repeat no, water anywhere in the RV park at the Kentucky Exposition Center?'s RV park with which to re-fill our fresh water tank in the RV. Not only that, but the shower/restrooms at the RV park were such filthy swill holes that just stepping into them made me think I needed to burn the shoes I was wearing before stepping foot back into our RV. No way would I use the facilities. Therefore we were unable to shower for four days. Only able to wipe down with a damp paper towel to freshen up. We got a tad ripe in those four days. To add insult to injury RV parking at the Expo Center costs $50.00 a night!! To further cause aggravation for RV owners trying to stay there when the Expo Center's crews cleared the RV parking lot of snow they pushed the cold, white stuff into mountains over most all of the RV parking spots. I would add that the pork producers, the fish frying folks and the chicken frying folks, all of whom work in the sheds located in the RV lot, had no water either. This meant that they had no way to wash up after using the filthy restrooms and no way to wash pots and pans or grills they were using. I'd be surprised if none of the food patrons at the Expo Center didn't get deathly ill after eating there this last weekend. - Jim C.

Park is right across the street from Church Hill Downs. Kind of tight for a 40' 5'er but fit-had to back in from the street though. Not a bad neighborhood. We stayed there almost 2 weeks for the fair. Owner is very friendly and helpful. Was quiet at night. Would stay there again. - reviewer3

We didn't actually stay here, but we pulled in and looked around. Posting this review since I've seen others ask about it. Trackside is directly behind Churchill Downs, and the lady we spoke to on the phone was quite friendly. Those are the good things. On the other hand, it was basically someone's backyard with some older hookups, in what appeared to be a somewhat sketchy area. It was fenced in, though. The handle on our water hookup was broken, and the sewer hookup was under a broken piece of cinderblock. We decided to leave, but it might be okay for a couple days if you're looking for the closest possible park to Churchill Downs. It was tough backing our 31' in from the street, and around the back of the garage. - NH Camper

This is just a parking lot of a somewhat shabby fleamarket. We camped here as it was close to Churchill Downs and the Louisville Slugger Museum and there are few options nearby. There were electric hookups, no water. Bathrooms were old and not very clean. Area is dicey- they do have locked gates and security staff drove through every hour. We had no problems. An OK place to stay for the night if you want to be close to things in Louisville- just not really a campground. - johnsonj

Convenient parking to Louisville and Churchill Downs. You are in the parking lot of a large flea market that based in old warehouses. Neighborhood is a little dicey with many strip joints along the road. People working there are very friendly and helpful. Rate was for a 30 amp hookup in the off season. No water available at our site due to freezing temps. Rate for derby week is $650 for the week. They were completing wiring for 50 amp while we were there. - glenthompson

This is not a campground. It at best is an unattended parking lot. The location is in a very shady part of town. You have to pull a large RV through the hood to get to this place. The place is unattended and messages left on their phone were not returned. IMHO, this place should not be listed as a campground. We left because we did not feel safe in this area of town. Maybe it is different on weekends when the flea market is operating but then all you migh have is electricity. I did not see any other facilities. - Ras2

A most unusual experience. I knew from researching Louisville, that there weren't a lot of top notch locations in which to stay. We picked this Derby Park, site of a large flea market on the weekends, and we made the mistake of arriving during the flea market. The supervisor came in his car and guided us into a large grass and dirt parking lot with electrical boxes on the fences. It is used mainly as a camping spot for RVs during the Kentucky Derby. We plugged in along the fence but then noticed that this was also the parking area for the Haunted House attraction that night. The manager, who really went out of his way to help us in every area, and is to be commended, suggested that we move our rig down to the other side after the flea market closed and we would be away from the Haunted House. We did that, but were surprised in the morning to have our RV surrounded by cars, and a farmer selling chickens and live roosters to a multitude of people. This park is located in a very seedy area, but amazingly we experienced no problems. As nice as the manager was, we will never be back. There were no other RVs that even tried to stay here. Electric only. I heard there was a dump station but with so many cars there, we left. - elduque

Enjoyed a nice weekend here. Easy check-in as the host was there as we pulled into the campground. We were surprised that they did not take credit cards and there were no picnic tables or fire rings at the sites. The campground was clean and had well-kept level sites and nicely mowed grounds. It was quiet and very close to town and surrounding attractions. We will definitely return. - bkbeck

We did not experience the problems the previous reviewers had. No barking dogs, no parties or excessive noise, cordial campground attendant ( led us to our site), and we had a level site with concrete "runners" for our tires and lastly, an excellent view of the lake out of our front window! We selected a water and electric site (50a) overlooking the lake. We had good Verizon cell service and MiFi (ours) and DirecTV satellite service. The park was well kept, no trashy campers and well maintained gravel roads-no potholes. We didn't use the restrooms or showers but found that the interiors could use a little painting around stalls and floors. The campground is well situated and close to downtown Bardstown and less than 2 miles from restaurants, groceries, etc. We most definitely will return here. Be aware there is not a sign in front of the campground but we were well aware that this was our destination because some RV's are visible from the road.
Perhaps the other reviewers were unlucky in theirs experience or perhaps there has been a revelation in a cleanup campaign in the park; however, in any event we definitely will return and encourage others to be positive while making their decision in stopping in this campground. We extended our stay to 4 days. - gatordan

All I can say is Run! Do not stay at this park Sites very unlevel. Bad power, Dogs will attack your dog that is on a leash. Owner makes rules that for some of his buddies they can be noisy, drinking, singing and playing music and keep you awake at night, way after 10pm. Been traveling for 3 years and this has been the worst experience we have had. Never Again. - Maverickpro203

Great WiFi!! We could watch Netflix and had fast download speed. Easy to connect. The park is being improved. New pavement was laid down and owner said they are going to continue. Sites are gravel and do need to be re-leveled. Owners know and are improving and expanding. They are a good Sams club but he didn't give me a discount when I gave him my card. the spaces are very large between sites. Lots of grass and it's set back from the road. Very peaceful and close to town. No laundry. - Zab18

Site was not level, had to have front wheels almost four inches off ground after moving back and forth three times. Owner's son was pleasant but his father was not. Made it clear that being there 33 years never had leveling problem. There are other nicer places to stay. - wbnjr
