Kentucky Lake Resort and RV Park in Gilbertsville, KY

Older RV Park.  Site was pretty much full-time RV's.  Trashy yards, loose pets, broken RV's.  We only stayed here because the owner said roverpass would not refund our payment if we went somewhere else.

Very nice people at the park.  Mostly long term occupants.  Basic sites.  Our power tower had a fault but luckily I travel with an extension a d was able to use the tower on the next site over as it was unoccupied. 

After riding my motorcycle in full gear in 90° heat the last thing you want is to walk into a hot room. After placing a reservation you'd think the staff would turn on the AC before I got there. The picture shows where you check in at!

Breaker kept tripping on power, ran down and unkept trailers, and no shade. 

This photo was actually taken on sled creek rd a mile from the ky dam marina...was a nice sunset an a great july 1st evening

Clean and felt safe. Only thing I wish there had been was a fire ring 🙂

Extremely friendly people, if you need anything they are there for you.

We’re in the RV park. Public bathrooms are bit dated, but clean and it is lovely here. It’s got so much land, a gorgeous pond to fish and a beaver family to watch. Everyone has been kind and friendly. What a difference from the last place we were at. Definitely avoid Moon River in Cadiz.
Our dog has room to run and fetch. I know our month here will fly by! Dollar General and food giant along with fast food is 8 minutes away down the road.

It’s so peaceful and tranquil here. Surprised it’s not busier as it’s right off the highway too.
Definitely a hidden gem.
Update: we ended up here for 2 months sorting medical ! Everyone is lovely, kind and helpful. Manager is a helpful, nice guy who always answers his phone.
Lots of permanent and long termers, with a few shorter stays. I don’t know why the negative reviews exist. If you want high end KOA then pay for a KOA.
There’s families here and it’s clean and everything works. It’s a great deal for the price. Yes, some cats are free to roam the campgrounds, but there’s zero pests here and they are friendly cats. You could winterize with hay here and never see a mouse!
One camper gave us a 22 lb bag of Friskies cat food his didn’t like. Truly kind folks here.
We have felt safe here for 2 months.

The bathhouse is totally non-functional.  If your RV is not equipped with a toilet and shower this is not the place to camp. On the plus side, it's quiet and people are friendly. 

This campground is terrible and very older We don’t like this place there We move to another better campground 

Love the place. Cant say enough good things about it. Prices went up quite a bit but the owner is the whole staff and anyone who ever worked housekeeping knows how gross and hard that can be especially when it's just you doing everything. Monty is always pleasant even middle of the night and is accommodating in every way. Love the fireplaces!

Very clean, nice quite place to stay especially with how close a lot of amenities are.

Stayed in the RV park for two nights in October 2021. The park is in a great location close to Kentucky Dam Village state park, has full hookups, and has a ton of potential. Sites are paved with concrete patios and they are level. Unfortunately the park has been let go! The bathhouse had at some point been renovated but was dirty when I went in to take a look. There are permanent campers that have tarps draped over them and even clover growing out of the power cord door, and junk laying around them in the grass. Nights were peaceful but both mornings at about 9:30-10:30 there seemed to be some sort of domestic issue at one of the permanent units. It's a shame! With some TLC this could be such a nice little park.

Monty the owner is awesome such a beautiful place so helpful,  clean friendly,,,
BEST EXPERIENCE AND PLACE I HAVE EVER STAYED ❤
THANK YOU FOR SUCH A GREAT AND PEACEFUL STAY God bless you all cant wait to come back awesome town too

Didn't go in hotel. But by the looks of the outside, "it's a 2"
The RV area is well maintained, quiet and if you aren't planning on staying at camper all day, it's go. Close to damn. And only a few minutes away from Grand Rivers, which is a great little town.

Pretty nice place good location. Love going to the dam fishing and sight seeing

This "resort" looks like it was a very nice place in the 60's. It's looking very run down and probably struggling to stay open. We walked past the bathroom building and detected a bad smell from 10 feet away. We're in a self contained class A so we never use the campground bathrooms. Especially now, in this age of Covid.
Half of the other camp sites appear to be occupied by permanent, poor locals.
On the positive side:
The manager, Monty is a very nice man.
There is a beautiful pond out back with mowed walking paths.
The campsites were almost litter free.
The speed of the wifi on a scale of 1 to 10 would be around 7.
It's only $30.00 per night.
We'll search today for a campground on the "Big Lake".
