Great campground. One of the best maintained and cleanest COE campgrounds we've ever stayed in. Hosts were awesome! Led us to our site and helped us back in even though she was off duty. We'll definitely stay here again.

@StevenI4342091 · Camped on Aug 26, 2024 at Campsite #39

Nice site right on the river !

@johnc3063297 · Camped on Aug 25, 2024 at Campsite #24

Great place and staff.

@BobE4E783C0486 · Camped on Aug 23, 2024 at Campsite #8

Camp hosts were very friendly and helpful. Entire place was very well kept, both the campgrounds and attached rec area. Great hiking and biking and birdwatching. Very quiet.

@NicoleL9328839 · Camped on Aug 9, 2024 at Campsite #32

The campground was clean and felt safe. The campground host worked very hard to keep people from speeding and looked after everyone and was beyond helpful and kind. Very quiet at night.

@ColetteS416127 · Camped on Aug 5, 2024 at Campsite #26

grounds were immaculate, view was awesome can't say enough about it . Did not use restrooms but they seemed to be to far away .

@GeraldL044399E · Camped on Aug 4, 2024 at Campsite #29

park was well maintained, our site was clean and very spacious. direct access to the river to launch kayak was perfect. Plenty of activities to occupy our time including, hiking, biking, and swimming Definately would return to this location. Cell phone and OTA TV service was excellent.

@HarryC49678170 · Camped on Aug 2, 2024 at Campsite #6

Club Med of Ace campgrounds, though a bit dated, spotlessly maintained. Garbage cans at every site, with a crew who, empties garbage cans, and cleans leaves and debris off unused sites daily. Has big playground for kids, with bench swing chairs for mom and dad. a well-manicured sand volleyball court next to playground. an older, but fenced basketball court (can set up 2 pickle ball courts in it). A small boat launch in campground with fish cleaning station and ample parking for camper's boat trailers. (this launch is a bit small). however,. 1/2 miles up from campground in the day use area is a huge boat launch (park property) that will put in the biggest of Bass boats. No marina or piers to say, just a small tie off, so you really can't leave your boat in the water, but campground has 2 shallow tie offs, although not Shure how deep. Day use area has large beach and plenty of individual use areas along river, with a couple of larger pavilions with parking. Not far from Nashville, (1 hour) and plenty to hike and see in local area, entrance to a wide trail that runs along river to Ashland city, a few miles to the south. All and all a great campground, day use area, a little off the beaten path, but well worth the effort to visit. It is on my list of stay again campgrounds.

great place will be back next year

@LauraS4657948 · Camped on Jul 16, 2024 at Campsite #7

Beautiful,clean and friendly staff especially Connie. Bathrooms were clean but in need of updating and paint but not a big issue.

@JoshT8305129 · Camped on Jul 14, 2024 at Campsite #26

Great place to stay and relax. Plenty of shade combined with wind off of the river makes it comfortable even when temps are high. Park attendant one of the nicest we have every been around at a COE campground.

@AaronM4160322 · Camped on Jul 14, 2024 at Campsite #31

This campground is in a wonderful spot and has great potential. Over the past 2 years we've noted the facility upkeep and improvement has been neglected. Other state and federal sites in this part of the country have invested in site improvement, but this location appears to have been overlooked. The negative issues primarily reside withe the latrines and bath houses.

@DonG3842679 · Camped on Jul 8, 2024 at Campsite #20

Great place to overnight or fish. big incline getting in and out of the park but worth it.

@TerriS2552296 · Camped on Jun 30, 2024 at Campsite #39

Great spot , great host

@DebraM7857218 · Camped on Jun 17, 2024 at Campsite #14

I had a great time very pleasant

@HillaryB06460F · Camped on Jun 17, 2024 at Campsite #26

The only negative about Lock A is the massive hill right before the gate to the park.

@JosephR3961273 · Camped on Jun 16, 2024 at Campsite #2

Pickle ballWould be good if there was more than 1 camp host so someone is on duty every day.

@WilliamW688008 · Camped on Jun 7, 2024 at Campsite #19

Visited June 2024. This was our first camping trip and absolutley loved it. The staff had a pleasant attitude and was willing to assist. If this is the experience to expect, then I want to visit this location many more times. Thank you for making our first experience a great one!

@ScottM5484435 · Camped on Jun 2, 2024 at Campsite #45

Had a great couple nights tent camping on my favorite site, but the second night there blew in late afternoon a wicked windshear that took down my tent and the four next to it on the lake's edge. I watched it from my car, where I had taken refuge from the powerful downpour. It was quite a memory, haha. I ended up clearing the campsite into my car and sleeping in it then taking off early the next day. But all in all it was quiet, peaceful, and a great little trip. I'll be back.

@scottb3088469 · Camped on May 30, 2024 at Campsite #22

We love to camp at Lock A. Very clean, very friendly, great location.

@ShawnK3077B6D4 · Camped on May 21, 2024 at Campsite #11

I spent 2 nights here, everyone was very friendly, and the staff was helpful. It rained a bit and quite a few people in tents left, but it was quiet, and my dog and I took long walks, very enjoyable.

@RobertN6611454 · Camped on May 10, 2024 at Campsite #35

Nice family campground. Paved roads good for biking for older folks and kids. Stayed May 10 thru May 18, 2024; site 31. Site has a long back-in, but was easy, and quite level. Good WiFi and cell reception. Clean restrooms. Good view of marine traffic.

@Willand3898043 · Camped on May 9, 2024 at Campsite #4

Bathrooms are in desperate need of updating and are located very inaccessible to most campers. Far too many people running around on golf carts. People allowed to use sidewalk chalk on virtually every available paved surface. No trail maps at the VC. Campers for the most part were respectful but noisy up to quiet hours. Just far too many people allowed to stay in campground that wasnt designed for the volume of traffic it received.

@GlennF2715441 · Camped on Apr 29, 2024 at Campsite #25

The experience was excellent. Really enjoyed the easy check in and the site was clean and exceptional.

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!!!
