Choose the right campsite

The campground transferred from USACE operation to Bright Sky Campgrounds in 2026. Reservations are now handled through Campspot.
Bright Sky labels its planned swim beach as coming soon, so it is not listed here as a current amenity.
Accessibility
Kentucky Fish & Wildlife lists accessible parking and seasonal accessible restrooms and fishing-pier access, but not an accessible boat ramp. Bright Sky labels planned ADA beach access as coming soon. The current operator does not publish enough detail to identify a specific accessible campsite.
