Campground Reviews

Dec 03, 2019
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!

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.

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.

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 The only negative is the campground has a very worn, outdated appearance to it.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.

Pretty awesome the bathrooms needs a little work
Sep 03, 2019
It's your typical campground. It was clean, but nothing extra. I would stay there again because it's close to the lake.

It rained right after we got there and it was a mud hole next to where we had to hook everything up. So after 1 night we left.Nice park but for the price it was not worth it.
Aug 11, 2019
We enjoyed our stay. The pool was nice. The staff was great. The only downfall was the flies. It was hard to eat outside as they were terrible.

The staff was friendly and helpful but the sites were not very level and the cable was sketchy at best. The signal was so weak we would lose reception about every 3-5 minutes. The recreation building was not air conditioned and was extremely hot. This is an older park that needs some updating. There appeared to be a lot of permanent residents.

CAMPGROUND RESPONSE / COMMENTS:

Thank you staying at Russell Springs KOA. Our cable is provided by the local cable company and is state of the art fiber optic.

One of the most beautiful places we've stayed. Only down fall poor internet.
Aug 03, 2019
Park was quiet and nice site. Couldn't make bogen into assigned pullthru site which they said was because I booked on line and should have called. I've never had this problem before and did indicate the size of rig in notes. Upon going into electric, no power. That said. The park quickly figured the problem and were accommodating to get us in a spot. Seems to be a lot of permanent rvs i

The plus is the staff are very friendly and accommodating. I had to cut my trip short since I telework and rely on thes internet to do my job. Internet was horrible and there was absolutely now cell service. Doggie park was small and far away without water for the dogs. Bathrooms weren't the cleanest.

CAMPGROUND RESPONSE / COMMENTS:

We are sorry your camping experience did not met your expectations. Unfortunately lightening had knocked out one of our two WiFi transponders. ATT doesn't pay to use the cell tower 1/4 mile from our campground so there there is very little phone service for their customers..

Great campground. The two men Mike and Josh, that lead us to our site were excellent, they couldn't do enough for us and came back and made sure everything was OK. Again they assisted us another day with the laundry facilities. They gave us good information on where to kayak and tips on where to put in and parking. We would highly recommend this campground and all the staff were terrific.

Prices for extra tent was not communicated well. Only have one bathroom facility at the office making showering an issue with wait time. No one picked up our trash in the morning like the other KOA camps have. Our water was restored to the site a few hours after we got there.

CAMPGROUND RESPONSE / COMMENTS:

Thank you for camping with us a Russell Springs KOA. Our listing on koa.com states that the price is for one camping unit with extra charge for additional tents, unless they are dependent children. I'm sorry the extra tent charge was not communicated with you.

Ck in great, staff are great! We were visiting family at the Alligator II Marina & the location was perfect. Road into campground needs to be repaired (several big dips in the paving). Campground not at fault, but no ATT phone service. Had to drive to find service. WiFi in campground down. They advised lightning had struck & not been repaired. I would stay again. Really need WiFi working.

CAMPGROUND RESPONSE / COMMENTS:

Thanks for staying with us at Russell Springs KOA. The WiFi transponder was knocked out by lightening and was being repaired. Our location makes it a great place to stay while visiting beautiful Lake Cumberland.

The campground itself has some nice amentities like the pool and rev room. Mini golf is a bit old. Our site was in a big field area due to our size (38 ft), no trees for shade. The lower area did have a lot of shade. The staff was super nice and helpful, we had to leave early and they were very accommodating to us.

CAMPGROUND RESPONSE / COMMENTS:

Thank you for staying with us at Russell Springs KOA. We hate you had to leave early. Please come back and see us.

Russell Springs KOA is only one mile from beautiful Lake Cumberland and is the perfect place to stay to enjoy the lake. Thanks for staying with us.

Great facilities and there was only one issue with the water shutting off once during my trip but was resolved quickly. Great place to pull in and get some rest. Kids loved the pool.

CAMPGROUND RESPONSE / COMMENTS:

We did have a water leak which happens every once in a while which necessitates shutting off the water to fix the leak. We are glad it was resolved quickly.

Stayed over the 4th of July and was a little disappointed that when i asked two separate staff members about seeing fireworks they could't tell me a place to go. As I am not from the area i had no idea where to go, what the shows would be like, or even when shows were. I would have like to have seen something posting something for people coming from out of town that gave this info.

CAMPGROUND RESPONSE / COMMENTS:

Thank your for your feedback. This is something we will be sure to post for July 4th in the future. We always use camper comments to improve our services to our guest.

We went with a large group and had a great time. The staff was very friendly. The pool was well kept. The campground is very conveniently located if you are going to Lake Cumberland. Our group had fun playing putt putt golf, volleyball, and swimming. We will definitely be back next year!
