    I have been camping here since I was a kid and I absolutely love it! The riverside sites are huge…read moreand extremely private but they book up fast so you must reserve online well in advance. Reservations are made through the Recreation.gov site. There are some really cool tent sites on the riverside that are just above the river and you have to climb down stairs to access them. The main campground is very well established so the trees are all mature and there is lots of shade. There are two bathhouses but a disappointing few number of showers, which is my only complaint about this campground. In addition to the main campground, there is also an Annex. This is a newer section and the trees are still smaller here yet. In another twenty years, the Annex sites will be nice and shaded. I prefer the riverside sites but will book an Annex site if those are not available. The Annex has its own playground, dump station, and bathhouse. The bathhouse in the Annex is actually nicer than the ones in the main campground so that is one positive to that section! You can walk to the river, walk to the trout stream to fish, ride your bike, hike the trail, or walk to the Fish Hatchery and Visitor's Center next door. There is a little snack shack in the day use area that has an awesome breakfast menu, rents kayaks, sells basic supplies including ice and bait.

    Lovely campground. Nice and flat for the children to ride their bicycles. Only complaint is some…read moreof the weeds and Poison Ivy could be sprayed and maintained better.

    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.
