Overall a very nice CG with great friendly hosts. The only negative to us is the closeness of the sites and the degree of difficulty getting into some sites. Otherwise, just great. Showers and rest rooms among the best we've experienced We camped here in a Motorhome.

Some sites are very hard to get in to. The Ranger switched our site and its a good thing. A bargain with a golden passport card. It's a waste of $5 on the Bison/Elk prairie, we did not see even one. The Kentucky Lake trail is beautiful and free. We nursed all our chigger bites for weeks after leaving there. We camped here in a Fifth Wheel.

Nice campground, friendly hosts. We usually stop here for a few days, but not long term as there is not a lot to do in the neighboring small towns. This seems to be more for people who have boats and want to spend time on the lakes. Many of the sites are smaller and hard to get into with some larger RVs. They have some newer pull throughs on the upper end of the park that are nice for larger rigs. We usually go for those. We camped here in a Motorhome.

We got lucky picking our site from the cartoon map on the website. We have a nice lakeside site, and one of only 3 or 4 that we could use the satellite dish. It is a very dark campground with very dense, very tall hardwood trees. There are several full hookup sites, but none are even close to satellite friendly. There is one loop, sites 111 - 117 that is in an open meadow and apparently designed for big rigs. The entire campground has brand new 20/30/50 amp electric, new water hydrants and has been recently re-paved. All of the bathhouses look new, too. We camped here in a Fifth Wheel.

The park was almost empty on the Friday that we got there. We were given what must be one of the most sought after sites during the summer, overlooking the lake. Beautiful! Fall colors were at their peak 2nd week of Nov. Even Better! Could not ask for more helpful staff. Only negative would be the 'seasonals' with all the clutter around some of the trailers. We camped here in a Fifth Wheel.

This was our third time to camp at this COE campground. We have always stayed in Brown Point area with full hookups, but this time had to take a site with just electric and water. Our reserved site only had 108 voltage which would not run our air conditioner and temperature was in higher 90's so needed the A/C. We enjoy the park,so took another site. They did send someone to repair the plug and circuit breaker the following day, at the first site the following day, but too late for us. Most of this park has lots of shade trees, wonderful place to walk, lots of deer so just a great place to relax. But if you enjoy boating, jet skiing,fishing, etc., a great! Even though a bad experience this time, we will return. Love this park. We camped here in a Truck Camper.

Registered and selected site by http://www.reserveusa.com with Golden Age Card. This made check in so simple a cave man could have done it. Nice level back in space, good shade, 50 amp electric, and water supply. No sewer at our site, so we used nearby camp bath house, which was clean but dated. Have pre-registered by the web for Aug stay. We camped here in a Motorhome.

Very nice COE campground. Large sites, some are hilly some are flat, it's just a gamble. We camped here in a Motorhome.

Other than a couple of mice that found their way into our trailer, we had a very pleasant week. As we had full hookups, we did not use any of the facilities. We did see a washer/dryer at each of the bath houses however. This spot is very convenient as it is on the northern edge of the Land Between the Lakes recreation area. We would certainly stay here again. We camped here in a Travel Trailer.

There is a wide assortment of sites for campers in tents to big rigs. There is a new section with large pull-through sites (in the sun). The roads and many sites are paved. Most sites are shady. This is a very clean, well-maintained campground. We camped here in a Motorhome.

Just came back from vacation there. We had site #6, which was the best. Everyone there asked how we got it - booked on first date available. We were very pleased with the restroom and showers. Thought we were in a hotel. Not many sewer sites so take a dump tank. Go for lake front property - our picnic table sat right by the lake beautiful. Will go back and camp there at at Patti's settlement. Drove to Hillmans Ferry -lots more for kids to do, but very crowded. We camped here in a Travel Trailer.

This is my favorite campground so far since we have been camping. Very nice campground situated right on Barkley lake. If you do stay here you have to go in to Grand Rivers and eat at Patti's 1800 settlement restaurant. Order their famous pork chops they are out of this world. The only reason why I did not give it a 10 is that I feel that a campground that get's a 10 has everything. And Canal doesn't have everything but it's close. Would recommend this campground to anybody. We camped here in a Fifth Wheel.

Most sites very shaded. Keeps cooler, but tough to get "dish" signal. A small RV rally was being held on the Group Camping sites 103-110. Brown's Point loop is most desirable for motorhomes. Also Fisherman's Row and Beach loops are also good. Hill Loop is nice but would be tough to navigate for a big rig. Stayed on site #43 in Woods Loop with 45 foot motorhome. Not the best loop for big rigs. We camped here in a Motorhome.

Park was clean and the staff very helpful. View from our site was great, and once we got 5th wheel onto pad we had lots of room. Only down side is there are lots of trees and if you have got a long rig (ours is 38 ft, not counting truck) it is not a easy back in since park was built some time ago for smaller units. I understand new sites are being built that will be more big rig freindly. We camped here in a Fifth Wheel.

This is actually one of our favorite campgrounds, so why would I rate it as a "1"? Basically because I've been misled. On the day before the campground was scheduled to close for the season, a water pipe serving a specific site broke. Totally understandable, these things happen. However, mysteriously, the water could not be shut off to just that site - for reasons that could not be intelligently articulated to me - and instead the water was turned off to our sites (94 and 95), our restroom, our bath house, etc. Conveniently, this meant that the bath house and restrooms could be closed down a day early, and in fact they were. When I questioned the closing, and told the elderly lady in the office that I saw that the water pressure was fine, her reply was "Well goody for you!" And that's a direct quote. Immediately upon returning home, I contacted ReserveUSA and asked for a refund for the last night there, as their site plainly states that refunds will be given in case of closings. Unfortunately, the disinformation continued. They had to contact the CG managers and they have a month to respond. Whoops, the CG is closed and they have to go to the forest service. And they get another month or more. Sorry, I've run out of patience. Now we'll do it my way. I'm contacting my credit card company and disputing the charges. Let the CG explain the mess to Mastercard, I'm done! We camped here in a Fifth Wheel.

This COE campground is situated on Lake Barkley, and adjacent to the canal connecting it and Kentucky Lake. The sites were spacious, yet private. Some were waterfront sites but we stayed in the forest with a view of the lake. Shower houses were immaculate, and there was a washer and dryer in each one. There is a small beach, a boat launch area and playground equipment for the kids, and firewood was available from the camp host for a nominal fee. The camp hosts were friendly and most helpful with information about the local area. Grand Rivers is a small community with a grocery store and several restaurants and antique shops. A good base to explore Land Between the Lakes. We camped here in a Travel Trailer.

Beautiful campground with lots of shaded wooded sites. Even though we did not have a reservation, we were able to get a very quiet pull-thru big-rig site. We had full hookups in the "T" section. The park is very quiet and peaceful. Friendly staff. The only complaint is the long-term residents with messy, cluttered sites. We camped here in a Motorhome.

I have always loved this campground, but was a bit disappointed this time. We decided to go during the week, rather than the weekend to avoid the crowds, but, the campground was full the first night there. Upon our arrival, there were only 4 sites left with water and electric, so we chose the best one based on our memory. As it turns out, the area we chose, was pretty full of seasonal campers. Most of them were not present, yet, had so much stuff setting everywhere making it look very cluttered and, well, trashy, to be honest. And the lights, most of these seasonal folk must be afraid of the dark! This was very disappointing, as one of my favorite things about camping, is watching the shadows created by the campfire dance around, which was impossible due to the light from other unoccupied sites. However, if you don't mind all the clutter, and light, this is still a great place to take the kids for daytime activities. The staff were very friendly, and the grounds were well kept, clean showers and restrooms, and, very secure. We camped here in a Tent Trailer.

A wonderful campground! We were not able to make reservations is advance for the any of the sites we wanted (full hook-ups) so we were a little nervous about getting a good site. When we got there, the staff gave us several choices and we were very pleased. Our site was very spacious and private, and the staff was wonderful the entire stay. Some of our favorite things about the park was the beautiful bike trail thru the woods, the location of it (close to several great outdoor attractions), the outpost store, and how secure the staff at the front gate made it. We will certainly be back. We camped here in a Travel Trailer.

Why would I rate this park a 2 when it is such a beautiful and clean park with such clean showers? This park has MAJOR ELECTRICAL PROBLEMS! When I turned on the A/C, the voltage dropped from 111V to 105V. This is way too low. I checked two other sites, one far away, and the unloaded voltage at the outlet was the same. Therefore, this problem was not just at our site. At one point, the A/C bogged down and the lights dimmed. I immediately turned off our A/C. After a few seconds, the park voltage jumped up to around 115V. I suspect some A/C’s got fried. After that, the voltage was marginal. Other than this major issue, the park is absolutely beautiful. The sites are level and well spaced. We would certainly go here again if it were not for the electrical problems. We camped here in a Fifth Wheel.

All roads are blacktop, some roads to sites will have tree roots that push up blacktop, very hard to drive over. Sites are gravel and range from from level to some what level. Lots of trees in park under. Number of good sites on lake. Area T has. three rings of roads. Trees are very close to road in this loop. Very hard to drive in this loop. If you have a motorhome you may wish to use area C1 or C3. No noise in park. Golden Age Passport is good for $6.00 per day off price. Lots of speed bumps in park. Bath houses were all new that I looked at. You can swim or fish in lake. Park sits on 300 miles of undeveloped shoreline. Very nice place to visit. We camped here in a Motorhome.

We loved this park -- spacious, lots of trees, beautiful in the fall colors. There were lovely areas to walk and our little dog loved it. The spaces were big and lots of privacy around. We enjoyed some of the sights close by, such as Kentucky Dam, a planetarium, and Patti's Settlement. We plan to go back there soon, and would really recommend it. We camped here in a Motorhome.

Beautiful wooded campground. Sites are fairly well spaced; some right along lakeside, others on terraced hillsides. Good choice of basic, elec. or elec-water sites; also some full-hookup sites, a few big-rig friendly. Tight turns on some CG roads (particularly C section) might be a problem for large or long rigs. When lake is higher, fishing enthusiasts might be able to drop a line right from your site! Really nice bathrooms - loved the private shower rooms!! Kept quite clean, especially considering how popular this campground is. Would definitely come here again. We camped here in a Travel Trailer.

Excellent campground. Lots of tall pine trees and spacious sites. Sites are fairly level, but be careful pulling in because of so many trees. Administered by the Forestry Service so not a lot of amenities, but staff is very friendly, and the grounds are clean with abundant wildlife. We have camped here many times and never disapointed. Cellphone and satellite reception is spotty. We camped here in a Fifth Wheel.

We camp at this campground several times a year. Great Campground. Lots of activities going on during the week. ex. Capture The Flag, Hikes, Concerts, and many more. They have a nice size beach area with Volleyball, a playground, 2 boat docks. The only down fall I had this time, is for the careless pet owner who took their dog into the shower with them and let it poop in the shower stall. Other than that mishap I will be back again soon. We camped here in a Tent.

Very nice campground, but very crowded. If you want something other than primitive for a weekend, you will need to get there at least by the middle of the week. Bathrooms were clean, but not well stocked on toilet paper. Water hydraunts in primitive areas were very far apart. Lots of Poison Ivy and Oak, and ticks. This used to be our favorite campground, but over the past few years, it has gone down hill a little. Probably due to the increased popularity. We camped here in a Tent.

This is a very large park. Your sites have small rock gravel and are fairly spaced. The bath house was nice with private showers. They were still building some of them. They had a band playing on Saturday night, which was nice. Also a store with a pretty good variety of items. Friendly workers. A couple of beach/swim areas. Playground for the children. Nice bicycle paths for bike riding. We had a site with full hookups for $24.00 a night but they had other sites w/electric and water for a cheaper price. We camped here in a Fifth Wheel.

Camground is now run by the government. Best sites with sewer hook are taken by seasonals. Sites with sewer are $20, without sewer, electric, water are less. Some restrooms are very bad and some are good. The older restrooms are in bad shape, but you can expect that. Very nice campground with loads of things to do and see. We camped here in a camper.

Very large Corp of Engineers campground in Land between the lakes. Has around 100 full hookup sites and rest mostly electric and water with some primitive sites. Lots of trees with some areas mostly tall pine trees and other area's a variety of hardwood. Roads are asphalt paved and sites are a small rock chap. Sites are outlined with railroad type ties which makes the actual site kind of tidy. Some sites are on Kentucky lake. Campground has a store, boat dock, swimming area and bicycle paths. We camped here in a camper.
