Great level site. Wildlife viewing. Bathhouse could have been larger. In peak season Zi would think hard to get in there. Water strange on the shower. But everything else was great. It was our first time there and will return.

A group of campers were allowed to play music so loud! Disappointed that the hosts did not try to encourage the campers to think of other campers and enjoy their music softly. By 10:00 pm the music stopped, but we had to listen to it for over 5hours two nights in a row. On the positive side, having the hatchery so close that you were able to catch trout, made my grandson so happy. That was the best park of the campground. The men's bathrooms needed soap and my grandson had to come to the ladies to wash his hands.

The best campground in kentucky

We had a great time despite the rain most of Sunday. The only things I think would make it better is to have Pickleball courts at the campground and of course a closer bathhouse would have been helpful! First time for me and I enjoyed the hikes and visitor center.

@SarahTB7D0CA75 · Camped on Nov 1, 2024 at Campsite #67
Really nice campground! The sites are a little small and close together, but not too bad. The bath houses are clean and conveniently located. The dump stations are pull-through, which is awesome. This was our first time here, and we will definitely be back! Also great phone signal - so we were able to use out hotspot to watch tv at bedtime which was nice.

We stayed in the Annex campground. Newer larger sites. Wonderful campground. Free washers and dryers a big plus. The trout stream is so pretty to hike along. Lots of fly fisherman. We will be back.

Have stayed there many times and has been one of our favorites. However, this time our grill was damaged with 2 bars broken off and lying next to it. Should have been remedied before we got there, not after we left.
@LynnC4699751 · Camped on Oct 31, 2024 at Campsite #117
camped in site 117 in the annex. loved the site. close to the creek, wildlife, and quiet place
@StephenC406899 · Camped on Oct 30, 2024 at Campsite #4
Campsites are irregular shaped. Some are 2 to 3 times larger than the on right next to you. And they are also to close together for my taste. However, that's just where I was at . Other sites I saw were more reasonable elsewhere.

We loved our time at Kendall

Live this campground. So nice and clean. Wonderful camp sites.
@JoAnnR7BBAFB75 · Camped on Oct 20, 2024 at Campsite #91
We enjoyed the annex camping the best. Staff was exceptional. Very clean & family oriented. Enjoyed the hatchery. Great fishing.
@EdwardG4063779 · Camped on Oct 20, 2024 at Campsite #63
Nice campground, but the disability requirement for golf cards is totally unenforced. They're a hazard to pedestrians at night when they parade and race around the campground. Time to talk to the hosts and get them to do their job.
@CynthiaM916014 · Camped on Oct 20, 2024 at Campsite #47
If you enjoy privacy supplied by trees and watching deer feed near by then Spot 047 and any in this row are excellent spots for you. The bathrooms were not too far a walk and were clean. We plan to return to this campground many times. We enjoyed the fish hatchery also.
@BruceS5371230 · Camped on Oct 18, 2024 at Campsite #6
We tent camp so we enjoy the water and electricity and the level pads.
@PamelaO6CB6135 · Camped on Oct 17, 2024 at Campsite #68
Great park to ride bikes in. The trails are well maintained from park to annex. Showers are push buttons, so you get cold or hot nothing in between! Great park overall.
@tomw9760406 · Camped on Oct 9, 2024 at Campsite #46

Thanks to all our Supporting Members

@BranJen - Santa Clara, CA

I wanted to thank you for this site and especially for the notifications feature. Thanks to your site and my subscription I was able to book a campsite I've been annoyingly trying to book for 5 years unsuccessfully. So thank you.

@Wondering - Oregon

Wow! Woke up this morning to a notification that a favorite had opened at Paulina, and when I went to check, it was there. This membership just paid for itself in the first 24 hours I owned it. Couldn't take the site it conflicted with a trip already set, but it truly was there. Thanks Tons.

@CarlaLThompson - Colorado

I just love this site and I tell everyone about it! It's so competitive to secure desired campsites and the alerts really help track when sites free up. The best part of this story is our alert notified a cancellation the next day!!!!!! Just incredible!!!
