Clean campground with nice amenities. If I had kids they would have been endlessly entertained there. Bounce pad, playgrounds, games, staff hosted activities like tie dye, and a pool. They have food trucks sometimes and its overall a very nice campground. Will book with them next time im coming through the area!

my first time at a KOA.. stayed for 5 days.. they do such a good job keeping the grounds clean.. i was VERY impressed with how the bathrooms were so kept up and the staff were VERY nice and "johnny on the spot" with ANYTHING we needed. i made sure and told the staff often how happy i was with the grounds.. i even pulled one of the cleaning staff aside and complimented them on doing such a good job.. we WILL be back.. stay awesome KOA

If I could give this place a million stars I would! I have never been to somewhere so comfy and cute! Our cabin was awesome, the bathrooms were in a convenient area. Showers were clean. I didn’t want to leave! Cindy was so sweet! We will definitely be coming back. 🥲

I stayed here for three nights in my travel trailer while visiting Louisville. This campground is very well kept. I stayed in early September. They gave me a warm chocolate cookie when I checked in and escorted me to the best spot in the whole campground I think. I was in the back corner, right next to the woods, and no campers on either side! How lucky am I? The shower house was fantastic and I enjoyed a couple nice hot showers. Notably, I did not hear any traffic noise at all during my stay. I Would definitely recommend to anyone visiting the Louisville area.

We stayed here for a meeting in Louisville, so it was convenient. The staff was fantastic. It was nice to get cookies upon our arrival (perfect after a long day of driving!). There was a nice playground and pool and it looked like a lot of activities for kids (including a little train ride). We did not use the bathroom or laundry facilities, so can't comment on them. Overall it seemed like a nice campground. Our only disappointment was how close the sites were to each other. Our RV has slide outs on both sides and it took a few tries to be able to get in position where we could open them and not hit our neighbors (the picnic table and fire pits were across the road because there wasn't enough room on the actual site).
