Elkhorn Creek RV Park is a welcoming private campground in Frankfort KY, right along the Bourbon…read moreTrail! Be sure to follow the campgrounds direction to the location. We stayed three nights at EC and had a relaxing and enjoyable visit. All the employees were very friendly and welcomed/ thanked us for visiting. The park has a nice swimming pool, mini-golf, playground, and pavilion. On Saturday evening they had live music and a food truck. Overall, the sites are spacious, especially the ones along the creek. The creek side sites are all paved pads, level, and FHU. These sites seem to be newly renovated compared to the non-creek sites. Water pressure was very good and consistent electricity throughout our stay. The one minus is the poor WIFI. A for purchase upgrade was available, but the free WIFI was very limited. The bathhouse is very nice, clean and modern. We were fortunate to have a buddy site (#9) with our friends and it was an amazing location. Common fire pit and plenty of room to spread out. The creek flowing behind the site was very relaxing and we wish we could have stayed longer. I highly recommend Elkhorn Creek and we will stay here the next time we visit the Lexington area. FYI- The campground is only 5 miles from Buffalo Trace.

Being a lone female traveler, I have always felt safe here. I have been here for a year. The owners are literally the best!!! They closely monitor the premises. The entrance and exit are gated. And there are security cameras all around the park. The park is family owned and the owners live on site. The park is very clean and very well maintained. It's the best little hidden gem in the country on Herrington lake and above the marina and restaurant. There are also several other marinas with restaurants nearby. I would definitely recommend Chimney Rock RV Park, and I would definitely stay here again!

First off, we picked this campground because the price was extremely reasonable. I was traveling…read moreacross country with a friend and her kids and my kids in my C class rv, towing a jeep and had no issues navigating through the park. This was a clean campground with plenty for kids to do. The pool was very clean and I saw the lifeguard check the chemicals multiple times. For adults, theres a nice little bar. Definitely no complaints there! But, what stood out for my friend and I, was the exceptional customer service. And while I won't go into details, we found ourselves in a situation and the owners went way above and beyond to help us out! We couldn't be any more grateful for their kindness to us strangers! I told my husband I would definitely like to return for a longer stay, for that alone! If the owners see this, again, thank you so much for your help, we truly appreciate it! Can't wait to return!

I enjoyed the Whispering Hills RV Park and its location. There are full hook-up sites, a swimming…read morepool, a lake, basketball, bark park, bar, picnic tables, and a playground with giant blow ups for the kids to enjoy. There are plenty of places around the park to just sit and enjoy a book. Some sites offer fires, but ours didn't. There are two laundry locations, but they only have a few washers and dryers. That's not enough when the park has 230 sites. Expect to wait for one to open. You do have a picnic table, but it's time to repair them. They did add in their flyer to call if you have an issue with your picnic table. You mow and clean up your site after someone stays, so you should already see any table issues. When I get to a site I've already spent many hours driving and don't want to call with any issues. I want to set up, relax, and enjoy the amenities. The property is very clean and well managed. They have an employee take you to your site and assist you in pulling in. We would definitely stay here again!!

The road leading to this campground is a two lane country road with no shoulders for 6 miles. To…read moremake it more fun, the last mile is a one lane, steep, curvy road with blind turns and no shoulders. Thankfully, we did not encounter any oncoming vehicles. I can see why they are sticklers about arriving and departing times! Check-in was quick, and the lady told us that someone would help us park. And that is a very good thing. The main area is an oval, and it's a tight, one way road. It would have been challenging to back into our site without help. The sites are narrow and very unlevel. We had to run to Walmart for more blocks. BTW the campground brochure says Walmart is 8 miles away. It's 12 and takes a good half hour or more depending on if you have to wait at a train crossing. Ask me how I know. When we returned to the campground, the staff was handing out concrete blocks to help people get level. They really need to warn prospective customers about this. The sites are close together, and there is no privacy. There is no cell coverage, and the WiFi is spotty. There are two toilets and two showers in the bathrooms, and they are clean. They also have a nice laundry room with large machines. Be prepared for ticks - we all picked up one or two just moving around the campsites. The river is beautiful surrounded by tall rocks. They rent boating equipment and have a few Adirondack chairs to sit by the river.

I was not originally planning to go here, but always leave a spot in travels to just "randomly…read moreramble" somewhere, and this was it! The old fort site has a marina and some signage, but it was brutal hot, so I wandered up to the Kentucky River Museum and stumbled right into a fascinating tour! The guide's family has operated the lock (Lock 10 to be specific) since practically conception, so he had stories, pictures, letters, journals, and a deep connection to the home and site. Awesome tour! This tour is included with your purchase of a fort ticket, so I headed over there to get mine and wander around the replica fort complete with cabins, crows, period demonstrations, and a video about the one and only Daniel Boone! You know, that guy, pretty famous in these parts....

We recently returned to the Kentucky Horse Park Campground after being away for several years…read more We've been camping here for decades, and it has always been one of our favorite destinations. We did make one trip shortly after COVID, and now, in July 2026, we're back again. While it remains a very nice campground, it seems that some areas of the grounds could benefit from a bit more attention to match the high standard we've appreciated in the past. The lawn maintenance, for example, could use some additional care. Grass and weeds are growing around trees, electrical pedestals, and water hookups that would benefit from more regular trimming. The playground area also has grass and weeds coming through spaces that are typically mulched, and the surrounding landscape timbers appear seriously ready for some upkeep. The children's pool was closed during our visit, and it would be helpful for guests to have some indication of when it might reopen. In addition, the front office staff seemed a bit reserved during our interactions. We understand that everyone has busy or challenging days, but a warm greeting and friendly demeanor can make a big difference in helping guests feel welcome. One long-standing issue is the presence of mud ruts at many campsite entrances. The paved aprons are relatively short, and because horse trailers have axles positioned farther to the rear than most RVs, they require a wider turning radius when backing into sites. Over time, this has led to deeper mud ruts in some areas. Adding and compacting additional gravel or a suitable base material could be a helpful way to improve these entrances. Please take these comments in the spirit intended. We continue to enjoy staying here and look forward to returning in the future. We simply hope to see this wonderful campground receive the extra care that has made it stand out for so many years. The Kentucky Horse Park itself remains beautiful and well worth visiting--the campground would benefit from a little added attention to bring it fully back to the level we've always appreciated.

I would highly NOT recommend staying at Still Waters Campground based on my experience with…read moremanagement. Today I rolled through a stop sign in the campground. I understand that was my mistake, and I accepted being told not to do it again. However, what happened afterward was completely unnecessary. Instead of simply speaking with me later at the office or sending a text, management chose to chase me down in a vehicle. I was driving around the campground under the speed limit, yet I was accused of speeding because they claimed they had to drive 30 mph to catch me--even though they had to turn around before following me. What made it even more frustrating was that I was told to "lead by example" while the manager herself admitted to driving around 30 mph in a 10 mph campground just to catch up to me. That felt incredibly hypocritical. What bothered me most was the way the situation was handled. I tried to walk away to avoid escalating the confrontation, but the manager continued arguing with me. She even told me to "go get my boyfriend," as if I couldn't speak for myself. I'm a grown woman and didn't appreciate being dismissed like that. Later, after I had calmed down, my boyfriend and I went to the office so I could apologize for raising my voice and explain my side of the situation. Unfortunately, management wasn't interested in having a productive conversation and came across as condescending and unwilling to listen. It also seems like the rules are enforced inconsistently. We have watched plenty of other people roll through that same stop sign without being stopped or chased down. If safety is truly the concern, the rules should apply EQUALLY to everyone instead of selectively enforcing them. Overall, this experience left a VERY bad impression. A simple warning then walking away could have resolved everything, but instead it turned into an unnecessarily confrontational situation. Customer service and professionalism from management were extremely disappointing.
