Amazing And beautiful landscape. Great for longer stays or overnight pitstop. RV and camp ground for military Veterans, retirees and their family.

Beautiful campground with cabins, RV lots and tent camping available. There is a lake, walking trails, fishing, disc golf, pavilions, and a creek and lots of open space for pets and children to play. Maintenance does a great job keeping the grounds, bathrooms and laundry facility clean. Office staff is also friendly and helpful. The ONLY downside to this beautiful area is the lack of wifi and poor cell reception. (We heard they recently signed a wifi contract so hopefully that comes available soon). Easy 10 min drive to Fort Knox main gate and Patton Museum. One of the nicest RV parks we've stayed and we full time. Great rates as well. RV sites were $30 per night or $35 for a pull thru site.

We stayed in one of the new little houses on Camp Carlson and it was a great experience! So much space compared to a hotel room, and fantastic price. Everything is clean, new, and It felt so cozy. They have really done a great job with these. The mattresses were not great and there is almost no cell signal (but enough to make a call and send/receive messages). There is a full kitchen with appliances, plus a toaster and coffee pot. There are a couple playgrounds, picnic tables, and a lake. Make sure and bring bedding, towels, paper towels (toilet paper is supplied) hand soap, and cleaning supplies as they do not supply these. Overall, we loved it and we will be back!

This is a great get-a-way place! There is abysmal cellular service, but the entire reason I come to a place like this is to at least partially disconnect. The cottages are a gem and worth staying in over any hotel in the area! You will be reminded! But, make sure you bring linens, pillows, and towels hahaha!

Very nice campground at a very good price. Nice laundry facilities and bathrooms/showers, always clean and well-maintained. Volleyball court, playgrounds, walking trails, dog park. The workers are very nice and knowledgeable, especially Ms. Carrie, she was wonderful. Would definitely stay here again. Only about 10 minutes to main gate. Very pleased with staying here for a few weeks while waiting for a house.

FOR MILITARY/ RETIRED ONLY! When arriving, Watch your GPS, SLOW DOWN ON THE HILL BEFORE THE ENTRANCE!! We sailed right past in our RV, no prior signage, Or turn off lane,, to warn us about the turn. NOT Safe! Otherwise, The camp is somewhat quiet, clean, staff is just wonderful! If you are staying for one night get a pull through next to the bathhouse/ laundry. The noise I don't like happens when cars on the road run over the noise strip on side of lanes.
