There's everything you want to know about thoroughbreds here. Take a walk thru the areas, and you can watch world-class horses complete at no charge.

Beautiful area. Employees are friendly and will try to answer any questions. The events were interesting. 3 champion racers came out of stalls and walked around a very small arena, while they played a few clips of their races and a brief history at the Hall of Champions. All horses, if willing, can be petted. Many different breeds, which most are friendly. A formative museum of the history of the horse. We came during the week and it wasn't crowded. All the events on the schedule were interesting and easy to get to on time.

All of the glowing reviews for this park has to be from people of are horse fanatics. The campground is a hot mess. Yes the staff is friendly and the playgrounds are nice but that is where it ends. The sites them selves are mud pits. Then the pads are cracked and uneven. If you have a larger rig then you are gonna add to the mud pit because you will have to park in the grass next to your rig. Then there are the review lies. There are NO sewer hookups. Yes the website says this but reviewers on here say that they have full hookups. This makes people think that maybe the website hasn’t been updated. Speaking of sewer issues, the campground only has two dump stations to accommodate 200+ camping sites. So guess what happens on check out days after a long weekend. Grid lock and rigs meeting each other going the wrong way into oncoming traffic trying to leave and/or get to the dump station. You are at the World Equestrian Games site KY Horse Park Campground. Do better!!!

Great campground, LARGE lots with asphalt pads. The pads are 6" tall so some rv's will have a rather tall first step (im going to buy a portable step like my brothers) that's the only negative thing I can say about this place. Lots of shade trees, benchs and fire rings. Nice campground store with clean ADA bathhouses. Basketball courts, pool and a Hugh playground. No sewer hookups so a line at the dump station on Sunday mornings. I am camping with a large group of family and friends so we had 5 travel trailers along the paved road, quite nice. Highly recommend !

I give this a 4 Star ONLY because they need sewer hook ups. They do have a local septic business that can come pump you at your site and you don't have to move which is nice. The staff is always helpful with things you may need and the October activities they plan are the absolute BEST! We stayed here this fall and I wanted to show you the beautiful "Trees of the Horse Park Campground!" The weather has been absolutely fantastic! Thank you Horse Park Staff for a great stay!!

Great place to camp. It's nice and quiet this time of year. They have a nice laundry, bathroom, and bathhouse. Everything is always so clean and well taken care of. I would highly recommend staying here!

It is a beautiful place. I know lots of people who enjoy going there when it comes to horses. I went for a craft event. Was very well organized. I enjoyed it greatly.

This is a very nice Campground. It has water, electric and 2 dump stations easily accessible for large coaches. The water pressure is very high so use a regulator. The grounds are kept very clean, the sites are spread out enough to be very comfortable. Some sites are not very level but doable. The staff is very polite and professional. Would recommend if in the Lexington, KY. area.

Always a joy to visit this place. Was there this time for the Retired Racehorse Project. The fun had was just great! Meet friends we know well and some from when we competed with in 2018. Just really great fun!
