    The smile says it all! Thank you, KOA Bowling Green!

    AN A+ STAY! After a day of travel and meetings, pulling into the KOA was refreshing! The grounds are beautiful. The staff is so welcoming! Big smiles and great customer service. The deluxe cabin is waterfront and so welcoming. The ducks are an added bonus! Tree-lined and everything a campground should be. Activities and amenities are at your fingertips. If you have not experienced the Bowling Green KOA, it is a must! Well done, KOA

    Broken fire pit

    Pros: Overall nice campground, two fishing lakes, a swimming pool, kids playground, dog park, miniature golf and paddle boats. Also, very friendly staff. Cons: I guess it depends on the site but we were somewhat disappointed with ours. The one fire pit on our site was broken and totally dysfunctional. The other fire pit had a dented/broken top on it. Also, the sewer drain for our site was very high for some reason making it difficult to dump our tanks. Lastly, it was Memorial Day weekend with a full park and the store closed at 6:00 pm on Sunday evening. That just really surprised us I guess so we were not able to get any more wood for the evening.

    Deep scratch between silver stripes.

    Dump. Its a dump. If you care about your rv then you won't stay here. They are so bad about trimming trees that my coach has scratches down the side of it now. Fire pit had grass growing out of it. BBQ still full of charcoal and ashes. WiFi was terrible so don't plan on doing any business while you are there. Sewer connection was broken and required a brick to hold it in place. Laziness or cheapness about trimming trees and cleaning. Was told by one worker that the maintenance/tree trimmer quit. Clearly obvious. Location wasn't bad. Wasn't loud. If you don't like dogs then I wouldn't walk into the office where some obnoxious white dog ran around barking.

    Great friendly staff, nice bathrooms, level sites. So why not 5 stars? The putt putt in front smelled like sewage.

    Nolin Lake has been my family's second home for years now. We started by RV camping at their…read morecampground facility, which was always nice, had plenty of space to roam around and nice showers/bathrooms. A couple years later my parents upgraded to a lake house, and they come down here almost every weekend (Even in the winter!!) I try to make it out here at least a couple times a year and it's always a fun time. The lake is gigantic and absolutely beautiful to cruise on. The surrounding neighborhoods have lovely homes and friendly people. All of the facilities that I have visited at this state park have always felt clean and nice. I could easily recommend this park to anyone. It is way out in the country off of the highway, but it is well worth it for a relaxing weekend in the sun!

    Great little campground not too far from Mammoth Cave national park. They have electric and…read moreprimitive camp sites. The campground is not that big, with one bathhouse and a playground. There is a dump station with 2 sites. The reservation check in has ice and fire wood, but it's hit or miss if someone is there to help you. We never even officially checked in because no one was there. We stayed on electric site #2 and it was perfectly shaded and quiet. The sites are nice and level with large spaces for games, hammocks, dogs, etc. Just outside the campground is the beach, park office and lake access for boats. The beach is small, but maintained well. We went on a 95+ degree day and the lake water felt like bath water, it was so warm. The lake was busy with a lots of boats and lots of beach goers. The park is pretty small, it mostly encompasses the lake, and there is not much around there. It take 40 min to get to the interstate and close to an hour to reach Mammoth Cave.

Most of the campers were locals or from nearby. The sites are slightly close, but with a lot of green space. The people next to us had several tents set up and one was even placed in our site... some people just don't know proper campground manners and this isn't the first time I'd experienced that. I can't speak on the rates or the booking process, it wasn't my turn for that task. I do know that he booked it through the recreation.gov After check in, there is a sharp left turn into the row of sites. If you're rig is big, don't risk it, just go straight and enter into the site area from the back. Several sites are water front, but not really accessible to the water. The body of water isn't the lake though, it's more of the channel from the dam to Barren River Lake. The boat ramp about midway in the campground, is a great fishing spot, if the dam isn't open. Catfish are the scores, but not when we were there, while there was too much water current from the open dam. It's in the western region of Kentucky, about two and a half hours from Lexington, so I don't recommend it for a short trip from here. Glasgow is the closest larger city and that was about twenty minutes away. If you're a BBQ restaurant lover, Glasgow is your place. We passed so many, I lost count.

The campground is normally well manicured, a genuine camping experience with the amenities of a bath house and certain sites having electric and water. The only thing I could dock stars for (but figure it's part of camping anyway), would be the bath house. The sheer amount of spiders and large insects lingering around at all hours is insane, especially when showering or dropping the deuce, as 8 legs come hauling ass your way! The campground has become increasingly packed on weekends with many of the sites being booked months in advance. That's fine by us. Our schedule allows us to be off while the majority of the workforce is hard at it. We absolutely love being at the campground through the week, especially while school is in session. This allows us to sometimes be the only campers in the area and the waters of Nolin lake to be like glass. The campsites vary in length and layout as well as some that offer electric and water. They all have a picnic table, lantern hook and a fire ring with grill top. Just bring a tent and some chairs, don't forget the graham crackers, chocolate and the marshmallows and make memories that you and your family will cherish forever. You will see plenty of deer and wild turkey in the area throughout the year. Many of the sites have lakefront footage as well, allowing you or loved ones to wet a line and maybe catch dinner for the evening. Hope your family enjoys your stay as much as mine, Happy Camping!

    Tons of space for our tent! 30/50 plus a picnic table and another table to cook/prepare food on.
