Staff was great & helpful, campground had everything we needed. At this Koa we utilized the following amenities and all were clean - bathhouse, laundry, tennis, game room/recreation area, covered pavilion, stocked store & pool. Wifi was spotty. One mile from Lake Cumberland Marina, so beautiful there! Loved the patio, chairs and table included in our site. Great stay, thanks RS Koa!

I would recommend this place to everyone I know and have! It is one of the nicest places I have ever stayed at. Clean, quiet, lots to do, and everyone I dealt with were very very nice! This place even made my doggie comfy! I will be back next year for sure!

We enjoyed our stay and loved the pull through site with a patio. The staff was super friendly and I would like to recognize Josh for his assistance with troubleshooting our cable. His efforts helped us understand the issues was within our trailer.

We are so glad Josh could help you with your campers's TV issues. Please come see us again!

Our stay was great, just wish it would have been a little cooler the 4 days we were there, a heat index of 106 degrees is not pleasant. But, we had fun anyway, we rented a pontoon boat out of Lake Cumberland Marina and spent the day on the water, best way to escape the unbearable heat. Russell Springs KOA has a lot of activity stuff on site, swimming pool, putt putt golf, and activities building.

CAMPGROUND RESPONSE / COMMENTS:

We are so glad you enjoyed your stay with us. Beautiful Lake Cumberland, voted the number lake in the US by USA Today readers, was the perfect way to escape the unusual heat. Being only one mile makes it really convenient.
Jul 28, 2023
Nice. campground . Couldn't get cell or internet service at our site. Excellent location. Lake Cumberland only a mile or so away. Convenient to stores and places to eat. Would stay there again.
Jul 25, 2023
I mean I love it there! We had an amazingly good time there. The only thing that I can say that’s really a bad thing but some tent campers hardly can’t use the Wi-Fi at night if they wanted to watch a movie with the family.. maybe could check and see about putting some hotspots through out the camp ground so everyone can use it.. just a thought! Thank you!
Jul 25, 2023
Loved this park, the sites were big enough so you didn't feel crowded. Great pool area and not far from the water. Host's were great. We stayed in a C. Will go again. Price was reasonable.

CAMPGROUND RESPONSE / COMMENTS:

So glad you enjoyed our padded site. Being only one mile from Lake Cumberland makes us your perfect camping spot for lake access. Looking forward to seeing you again.

Always enjoyable, staff is great, we love it there..

This is our second year staying with KOA. Great stay as always!! Very friendly customer service!!

Had a nice stay. I would have to say that the park needs to have better wifi and cell service. I also think it would be nice if the bathrooms and laundry facilities had some sort of air conditioning. Otherwise, everyone, who works there is very professional and accommodating, and very friendly. I would definitely stay again but would have to figure out some way to use the phone.

CAMPGROUND RESPONSE / COMMENTS:

Lack of cell service is a carrier issue. We have a cell tower 1/2 mile from us but ATT does not utilize that tower- therefore very little cell service for ATT customers. We look forward to seeing you again.

Nice campsite, Easy access to lake
Jul 20, 2023
The staff was very courteous and attentive. The facilities were clean and the pool was great. Upon our arrival at 7:45pm I noticed the 30amp plug was burnt. The guys did a quick and thorough job replacing that so we could have electric that night instead of having to run an extension cord to the unused site next to us till morning. We really appreciated this a lot.

An absolutely enjoyable place. The owners were very welcoming and helpful. Clean facilities and the pool was perfect!

Our new padded W/E site has proven to be very popular. The site is private, wooded and very shaded. Thanks for staying with us.
Jul 10, 2023
There was no shade on our slot. Made it very hot to sit outside.

CAMPGROUND RESPONSE / COMMENTS:

We hope you give us another chance. We have numerous sites that are shaded however they are very popular and are some of the first to be rented.

Our family had a great weekend at one of the cabins at the Russell Springs Journey KOA. The pool, the relative closeness to the lake and its other amenities made for a great weekend. We will be back soon.

This campground is a great place to stay. It's super close to two boat ramps. Only a short hour drive to Cumberland Falls Park. But what really makes this place great are the people who run it. The owner personally stopped by our campsite and went over the map of the area. Showed us the best places to visit, the best restaurants, and more. He must have spent 20 minutes at the picnic table with us. Super friendly staff!

We love the location and the campground, love that it's family owned. But possibly they could use some of the earnings to slide a bit of comfort in!! If you have a disability or “bad back”, fair warning you'll need to take something to sit on even in the “delux” cabins. The front cabin has a loveseat that pulls out. Not sure of the comfort when it was pulled out but to sit on it was horrid. Cushions ripped and taped are a bit ridiculous since it costs so much more to stay there. I fear my dear friend from out of town will not be back because there was just no way to really find even a few minutes of comfort with only 3 of us there. The shower ran out of hot water before I could even wash. Again we love the place, but some comfort is a necessity when doing that type of traveling and only so many people can squeeze in one bed. So maybe decent furniture, maybe spring for a recliner. We will hopefully be back. But matching comfort with price would be great. I recommended the place and now I feel bad because it was 2 full days and nights formal her with no way to really sit and relax, only sit. I'm always uncomfortable so until I seen someone else so uncomfortable from my recommendation did I realize. Diana, if you read this I'm sorry! I did not know what that particular cabin was like…now I know. I'll be back, but lol not for comfort.
