A short hiking trail allows campers to explore the natural scenery at their leisure. Eagle nests can be spotted throughout the grounds, and deer sightings are common. During warm months, bass and catfish fishing is excellent in both lakes. The campground is located just a short drive from Grand Rivers, which offers restaurants and marinas. Lake Barkley spans 134 miles along the Kentucky landscape, providing countless recreational opportunities for boating, fishing, and water sports.
