The water was off on Friday for a quick repair they said that took two hours. Then Friday evening it was off again without notification. I called the desk and overheard the lady talking to someone and he stated, yes it is off again, I am trying to get it fixed. Very unprofessional! Other than that it is a decent campground.

CAMPGROUND RESPONSE / COMMENTS:

We are so sorry you experienced water interruptions during your stay with us. Occasionally during a season water spigots break down in the ground and it takes time to ensure they are fixed and the repair holds.

Nice clean campground. Very nice people running campground. Campsites need to be further apart than where we were. We felt like we were sitting on each other

Very clean. Wifi needs improvement in the lower lot. Would like to see less permanent campers allowing for more available sites to weekend campers.

Owners very nice. They checked with us daily to see if we needed anything. Sites were nice and clean. Will stay again.

First to stay in new cabin. No hot water until the second night. No cooking utensils or silverware. No bread in date at the store. But, the cabin was beautiful

CAMPGROUND RESPONSE / COMMENTS:

We are so glad you enjoyed your stay in our new cabin. It provides a coffee pot, toaster, and two induction cooking pans. All kitchen supplies and bed linens need to be brought by the camper.

We stayed three nights while visiting friends in the area. We were completely satisfied with our pull-thru lot and your family friendly, well kept up Campground.

We had a wonderful time at the campground. Owners and staff were amazing and extremely helpful. It would have been even better if COVID-19 hadn’t forced a shut down of all the amenities. Still a great time and very relaxing.

CAMPGROUND RESPONSE / COMMENTS:

We are really looking forward to being post COVID and thing can return to normal. I'm glad you had a great time during your stay with us.

Fire pits are way to close to camper spots on sites, booked and was told we have a premiere spot and received a basic gravel spot with a unuseable fire pit.

CAMPGROUND RESPONSE / COMMENTS:

We are sorry that your site did not meet your expectations. We offer Patio Sites that would be great for your size rig. Please give us another try to earn your business.

The lady that answered the phone was super nice. Very friendly staff and observed the social distancing rules. They brought us ice from the store to our camp site. When we arrived they had paperwork ready and handed to us through our window and showed us to our campsite. We liked section A.

CAMPGROUND RESPONSE / COMMENTS:

We have implemented various policies to ensure the safety of our customers and staff during the COVID-19 crisis. The A sections are very popular, especially the patio sites. Thanks for staying with us.

The owner was helpful in providing a portable fire ring so that we could put it in a more convenient spot for our site location and it was quiet, not on HWY. On the negative it appeared as if 80% of the campground was either permanent/seasonal so the campsites were not very attractive; big storage bins and other clutter surrounding the RV/travel trailers. Very little live "green" space per site.
May 05, 2020
Very friendly owners. Only reason that this isn’t a 5 is because we couldn’t judge the showers or restrooms which were closed due to Covid 19 protocols mandated by the state. We are staying here again next week!

CAMPGROUND RESPONSE / COMMENTS:

Unfortunately, our Governor has the restrooms closed until 6/11/20. Looking forward to seeing you next week.

Very nice sites. Owners did the best they could considering the restrictions placed on them during Covid-19. We were happy to have a place to camp. We already have reservations for June. That will make our 4th time staying there.

CAMPGROUND RESPONSE / COMMENTS:

We love our repeat customers. Looking forward to seeing you in June.

Accommodations OK. Owners are good people. Campground is more of a lake oriented resort. Nowhere near "easy on easy off". Miles of curvy rural roads to Interstate. Not recommended for big rigs.

CAMPGROUND RESPONSE / COMMENTS:

Thank you for staying with us. We are seven miles off the Cumberland Parkway and one mile from Beautiful Lake Cumberland.

Upgraded us to a prime spot... had a nice concert pad, a grill two chairs and a fire pit ! I would pay the extra for a prime spot next time .

CAMPGROUND RESPONSE / COMMENTS:

Our Patio sites with table, seating for six and charcoal grill are the perfect spot to relax. We are glad you came to camp with us.

John and his team are great! We were a first time seasonal renter this year and we can't wait for next season to start. The team at the Russell Springs KOA keep the grounds well maintained and free of trash and debris. Even thought the bath houses could use an update, they are always spotless! we really enjoyed the Bluegrass Festival but we wish that the campground had a big Halloween celebration

The cabin we rented was brand new. It was in excellent condition. It had all of the amenities that we needed. The owners were very helpful and friendly, even bringing some of their own chairs for us to use to sit outside in. We loved it!

CAMPGROUND RESPONSE / COMMENTS:

Glad you enjoyed staying in one of our new cabins, they have restroom and shower in them to make it more convenient for our customers, come see us again in 2020

Stayed in Amish-built camping cabin: very satisfied. The cabin is quaint and conducive to the “feels like” camping experience. The bath house is close, is clean.

CAMPGROUND RESPONSE / COMMENTS:

Thanks so much for the kind words and staying in our cabin, please come stay with us again in 2020

Since it was late in the season the area where our campsite was had only 2 campers. Us and another couple who had 2 large dogs. They kept the dogs tethered out side and every time we came outside they barked like crazy! Sucked most of the fun out of our stay. We are always reluctant to report this type of activity thinking management would see and act. Maybe next time.

CAMPGROUND RESPONSE / COMMENTS:

The campground was clean. We had a friendly greeting when we arrived and the checkin process was easy, followed by a guide to our camp site. We were in some pull thru sites that were quiet, and somewhat secluded. Everything worked as its supposed to. The only negative is the campground has a very worn, outdated appearance to it.

CAMPGROUND RESPONSE / COMMENTS:

So glad you enjoyed your stay with us. We are always working to improve and update our campground. Please visit us again.

This KOA is visually appealing. The staff is polite and professional. This particular location may be a network deadzone. So, come prepared for service outages. With that being said, this location has endless potential for a fun vacation with the family.

Located on the high banks of lake Cumberland the campground is quiet and reasonably priced. Spots were easy to get in and out of and utilities worked fine for the whole stay. Staff were friendly and facilities were nice.
