Campground is very well kept. Restrooms were clean, workers were very helpful especially Sharon (Jersey). Will definitely come back and recommend to other rv’ers! 7/10/2020

We stayed here twice in the last 30 days Both times we experienced friendly customer service. Late check in was handled expeditiously which was very much appreciated. We will definitely return when passing through Kentucky. 7/10/2020

This will probably be a much more fun place to stay when the pandemic is over. It was still a nice place to stay overnight, and our dog loved the little dog park. 7/9/2020

This is the best KOA we have stayed. Updated bathrooms and spacious campsites! 7/9/2020

Awesome staff, made us comfortable and checked on us later that evening. Will definitely stop here when traveling through. 7/7/2020

We absolutely enjoyed our stay here in Louisville. The kids loved the pool, jumping pillow, and Gaga ball. We were also very appreciative of the planned and fun activities (tie dye, bingo, outdoor movies, etc). The staff were friendly as well. We will definitely come back! 7/7/2020

During crafts and activities the KOA staff was very attentive to social distancing and disinfecting items that were touched. The adults that chose not to social distance or limit their time in the pool caused families to limit their pool time to avoid close contact... 7/7/2020
