John was so nice to put us up for the night. We had 3 more hours to drive to the intended campground and were so tired to drive on. John was so nice to put us up for the night and helped us so much with map directions to our other campsite. Quiet and clean. Nice walking paths for dog walking and a pretty view of the lake. Thank you John for accommodating us.

they advertised free wi-fi at the campground. as long as you stay right next to the office you have wi-fi but when you move away from there nothing. Now as an adult i could care less but when you have small children that watch a tablet at bedtime this is a huge deal. because of that we only stayed one night then left.

Very enjoyable weekend trip with family. Everything was neat and clean and the staff members were very friendly and accommodating. I have been coming here since I was 7-8 years old, and I’m now 51. A lot of things have changed over the years, but it’s still my favorite place to camp!

We had a great stay in a cabin. The accommodations were wonderful. The grounds were clean and well kept.

Thank you for staying with us. People really love our deluxe cabins!

Site was spacious and level. Campground advertised WiFi and cable, neither one worked at location. Numerous ATV,s being driven causing extremely dusty conditions. Mini Golf in need of tremendous repairs. Caters to annual clients.

We love coming to your KOA and staying in the cabin. They are very nice and cozy. May try to bring our camper next time. The staff is very friendly and also very helpful. Bath houses are kept nice and clean as well as the campground. Thanks for making our stay enjoyable.

Internet speed are atrocious. Maybe that's the max speed they can get, but it's terrible. Also, the sites are EXTREMLY close together, unless you are in one of the lower spots. I also felt the upkeep on the grounds could have been better, especially around the permanent spots.

VERY friendly team! However, the bath houses, the playground, and the recreation hall have not been upgraded in a decade, if not more. The pool area was fine, but dirty. There was a lot of trash around the playground area and weeds around the putt-putt area. Four swings and one metal slide is a really sad playground. Again, the staff was great, but we will not stay again.

Great place, could use some more gravel on the roads and camping sites but other than that great place!

Not your traditional Koa. Couldn't enjoy a campfire, the ring was on a hill so no where to comfortably sit. I believe it is newly acquired by them so wishing you best of luck on renovations and park upkeep.

The cabin we stayed in was nice and the staff was great. We were disappointed in the fact that there was not internet service as advertised, the signal was extremely weak.

CAMPGROUND RESPONSE / COMMENTS:

We are so glad you enjoyed our cabin. We apologize about the WiFi. With the trees and rolling landscape internet can be intermittent in places through out the park .

It was great! Young girl in office so friendly. The patio area we stayed on was perfect
May 26, 2021
Zack was amazing, helpful and so sweet! The place was filthy and large dead cockroaches everywhere!

This place is not representative of all of the KOA’s we have visited for years. Most of the sites are permanent sites. We reserved a pull thru site with full hookups and that is what we expected. There is no such type at this KOA to accommodate a 35’ motor home towing. They only have 4 sites that are pull in and are BACKOUT. The office people were nice, but the KOA name should not be at this p

I'm sorry you were unable to reserve one of our 70 feet long pull through sites, however these are the first ones to be rented.

Not as advertised.

We were assigned a great campsite on the downslope of the hill. The site had lots of room for our trailer and truck. All the staff were very friendly and happy to chat.

Out of the way nice layout, super quiet, nice upgrades going in too

Tanya and Zack were great! I would stay here again! The restrooms and showers were clean.
May 16, 2021
The staff was very friendly and supportive for our first time camping. The campground and the bath area was very clean. The pool looked nice but a little cool for us to swim. Will come back to this place again. It’s a nice little getaway.

Sites were fairly level, gravel, and long enough for our tow vehicle. Upgraded to a patio site. Much nicer than the other options. Restrooms and showers were clean. Staff was very helpful. A lot of upgrading appears to be happening. New blacktop in sections. Good cable. Rec room was locked up. Pool looked nice.

Major work to trees and driveway where underway during our emergency " no fuel " stay. We may have been there during their improvements and upgrading so I will not make any comments other then Thanks for the site and when you get it lookin' good....

Needs some updates

Staff really accommodated our stay while fishing Cumberland Lake.

CAMPGROUND RESPONSE / COMMENTS:

Lake Cumberland is a great fishing lake and hope you caught some nice ones. We are within a couple of two lake ramps making us a wonderful location for you next fishing outing.

Tonya was very nice and very helpful. We enjoyed our stay

Nice place to stay if you’re wanting to use the Cumberland Lake Marina. Campground was very quiet while we were there. It was in April and it snowed one day. It looks as if there would be a lot of family activities once the weather warms up and they have everything opened up. I would definitely recommend for families.

CAMPGROUND RESPONSE / COMMENTS:

Thank you for staying with us at Russell Springs KOA Journey. We are the KOA on beautiful Lake Cumberland and less than one mile to lake access.

We asked for a secluded area and the host we met was very helpful in putting us in one. Another staff member took the time to lead us to the site which we found very helpful. The campground was very peaceful and we enjoyed our stay very much.
Apr 13, 2021
We had a nice time and everyone one was friendly. I don't like that the bathrooms are not kid friendly- or even big girl friendly- they are too small and almost impossible to take a toddler in there to potty. I was also frustrated that the rec room was closed.
Apr 13, 2021
It was very quiet. Staff were all very friendly. The kids couldn’t use the rec room due to remodel, but it was still a great weekend. Mini golf was fun. And the pool looks super nice. Can’t wait to come back and use it!

Glad you had a great kick off to the camping season. Look forward to seeing you again this summer!

Staff was very nice and helpful with anything we needed. Cabin was clean and well kept. Shower houses were nice and clean also. Campground was clean and well kept. We plan on coming back as much as possible if cabin is available.

The campsite was less than we expected. The 110v outlet wouldn’t work. Water hookup was not very well setup. Pvc pipe with hose bibs that leaked. Site needed gravel because when it rained it became muddy in places. The office was closed Tuesday, Wednesday and Thursday so there was no access to Ice while we were there. Camp overall was kinda run down and in disrepair
Apr 08, 2021
It was a pleasant stay. Very quiet no issues with any of the open amenities.

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.
