Firefly Hills

13 RV Sites

Firefly Hills in Beattyville, KY, offers 13 full-hookup back-in RV sites with 30 and 50-amp service and room for rigs up to 70 feet. Every site is a back-in carrying water, sewer, and electric with site-delivered WiFi and a fire pit. The park is rated big rig friendly, open all year, and explicitly LGBTIQA+ friendly. Laundry, a bathhouse with showers, a general store, firewood, a community fire pit, and RV storage cover the practical side. Pets are welcome, with a dog park and a playground. A pond, walking trails, pickleball, and gaga ball fill the wooded grounds, with hiking and kayaking close by. Beattyville sits in Lee County in the eastern Kentucky mountains, minutes from some of the most concentrated outdoor terrain in the Appalachian South: Red River Gorge, Natural Bridge State Park, Clifty Wilderness, Daniel Boone National Forest, Muir Valley, and Hollerwood Offroad Adventure Park. Rates and availability are on the booking page. Climbing season at the Gorge fills this park — reserve well ahead for spring and fall.

Rustling Pines Campground

16 RV Sites, 1 Tent Site

Rustling Pines Campground in London, KY, offers 16 RV sites and 1 tent site, with 30 and 50-amp service and room for rigs up to 80 feet. Sites come in two categories, full-hookup and electric-only, with full-hookup sites carrying water, sewer, and electric plus site-delivered WiFi and a fire pit, in back-in and pull-thru layouts. The campground is rated big rig friendly, and at 80 feet it takes the longest coaches. A general store, firewood, and a bathhouse cover the essentials. Pets are welcome, and there's a playground. The trails are the differentiator: four miles of clearly marked riding and hiking trails on the property itself, suitable for all abilities, with longer routes running out from there. Creek frontage and walking trails fill the rest of the 40 acres. London sits in Laurel County adjacent to the Daniel Boone National Forest, in southeastern Kentucky's Lake Cumberland region — a practical base for the forest, the reservoir, and the waterfall country around it. A state park and a lake are nearby. Rates for full-hookup and electric-only sites are on the booking page. Trail-riding weekends fill the campground.

Cumberland Falls RV Resort

25 RV Sites

Cumberland Falls RV Resort in Parkers Lake, Kentucky, offers 25 full-hookup RV sites with 30 and 50-amp service and rigs accepted to 45 feet on a big-rig-friendly layout, at the gateway to one of the Appalachians' most extraordinary natural wonders. Premium WiFi, golf cart rentals, a lake, and a fishing pier serve guests exploring the Daniel Boone National Forest. Twenty-five sites carry water, sewer, and electric on 30 and 50-amp in back-in and pull-through configurations, sized to 45 feet, with fire pits and picnic tables. A general store, restrooms, showers, firewood, and both standard and premium WiFi handle the practical side. Pets are welcome. A lake and fishing pier sit on the property, with a river and creek running nearby. Sports courts, pickleball, horseshoes, corn hole, walking trails, a pavilion, and a dog park fill the grounds, with golf cart rentals to cross the property and planned activities through the season. Hiking, whitewater rafting, canoeing, kayaking, stargazing, and birding all run from the area, with boating and a casino nearby. Cumberland Falls is the reason to come. The 125-foot-wide curtain of the Cumberland River plunges 68 feet through a sandstone gorge and produces a moonbow visible by full moon light — a phenomenon found in only a handful of locations worldwide. The state resort park, the Daniel Boone National Forest, and the Big South Fork National River and Recreation Area all converge here, with SomerSplash Waterpark and Wildcat Off-Road Park nearby. Full moon weekends draw moonbow viewers specifically. Reserve well ahead for those dates and for October foliage.

Escape With Us RV Resort

26 RV Sites

Escape With Us RV Resort in Somerset, Kentucky, offers 26 full-hookup RV sites in the Lake Cumberland corridor, with 20, 30, and 50-amp service and rigs accepted to 50 feet on a big-rig-friendly layout. A premium pull-through category with a private deck joins premium and standard back-in tiers, with a dog park, playground, boat storage, and food trucks. Twenty-six sites span back-in, premium back-in, and premium pull-thru with deck categories, all carrying water, sewer, and electric, sized to 50 feet, with fire pits. The pull-through with a private deck is a genuine find — outdoor living space built into the site rather than something you set up yourself. A laundry, restrooms, showers, firewood, boat storage, and food trucks handle the practical side. A dog park, playground, and inflatable water toys fill the grounds. The amenity set is deliberately focused, and the thoughtful details — the deck, the boat storage, the food trucks — are what distinguish this from the region's more functional waterfront parks. Pets are welcome. Pulaski County sits on Lake Cumberland, one of the largest reservoirs east of the Mississippi with more than 1,200 miles of shoreline and a houseboating culture that defines the region. The striped bass fishery is among the best in the country, Cumberland Falls — the only regularly occurring moonbow in the Western Hemisphere — is close, and the Daniel Boone National Forest surrounds much of the area. Summer lake season drives the heaviest demand on Lake Cumberland and fills the corridor. Reserve well ahead for Memorial Day through Labor Day, with the spring and fall striper runs offering easier availability.

Rock Bottom Horse Camp

8 RV Sites

Rock Bottom Horse Camp in Ewing, Virginia, offers eight RV sites with horse pens and paddocks on site, 20, 30, and 50-amp water-and-electric service, and rigs accepted to 70 feet, behind a gated entrance. A single 30/50-amp water-and-electric back-in category serves riders at the doorstep of Cumberland Gap National Historical Park. Eight back-in sites carry water and electric on 30 and 50-amp with site WiFi, sized to 70 feet, with fire pits and picnic tables. Plan around the hookups — sites carry water and electric rather than sewer, so manage tank capacity and use the dump station. Seventy feet accommodates a long coach with a horse trailer, which is exactly the combination this camp is built for. One consistent category means no guesswork. A dump station and gated entrance handle the practical side. The equestrian infrastructure is the entire point. Horse pens and paddocks on the property mean your animals are secure overnight rather than improvised, and dedicated horse camps with real RV hookups are genuinely scarce. Walking trails and hiking run from the property, with a national park and state park immediately adjacent. Pets are welcome. Cumberland Gap is where Virginia, Kentucky, and Tennessee meet, and the pass through the Appalachians that Daniel Boone's Wilderness Road opened in 1775 carried some 300,000 settlers west. The national historical park protects 24,000 acres with more than 85 miles of trail, much of it open to horses — the Ridge Trail runs the length of the park along the state line. Spring and fall bring the best riding weather. Reserve ahead, and confirm pen availability when you book.

The Point Campground & Farm

19 RV Sites

The Point Campground & Farm in Nancy, KY, offers 19 full-hookup back-in RV sites with 20, 30, and 50-amp service and room for rigs up to 70 feet. Sites come in two sizes, large and small back-ins, both taking 20, 30, and 50-amp service and carrying water, sewer, and electric. The campground is rated big rig friendly and the 70-foot maximum on the large sites handles long coaches. Choosing between large and small at booking takes the guesswork out of fitting your rig. Pets are welcome. This is a working 100-acre farm campground rather than a resort — the appeal is space, quiet, and a rural setting that most lake-area campgrounds can't offer. Nancy sits in Pulaski County near Lake Cumberland, in the agricultural and lake country of the Cumberland River highlands, with a national park unit close by. Rates for nightly, weekly, and monthly stays are on the booking page. Ask about year-round and long-term arrangements if you're planning to settle in.

Soggy Bottoms Campground

11 RV Sites, 3 Tent Sites

Soggy Bottoms Campground in Liberty, Kentucky, offers 11 RV sites and three tent sites with 30 and 50-amp service and rigs accepted up to 120 feet. Full-hookup and water-and-electric back-in categories join a general store, playground, showers, and creek frontage. Eleven back-in sites run in full-hookup and water-and-electric categories, carrying water, sewer, and electric where noted, sized to 120 feet, with fire pits and picnic tables. Confirm your tier, as the water-and-electric category does not carry sewer at the site. One hundred twenty feet is exceptional capacity for a park this size and accommodates anything on the road with room to spare. Three tent sites round out the lodging, and the tent rate covers one tent — additional tents need to be added to the reservation. A general store, dump station, and showers handle the practical side. A creek runs the property for fishing and canoeing and kayaking, with a playground and volleyball filling the rest. A national park area is nearby. Pets are welcome. Casey County sits in south-central Kentucky's rolling farm and forest country, genuinely rural and quiet. Liberty is the county seat, and the area is close enough to reach several of the state's better outdoor destinations without staying in a crowded corridor — Green River Lake, Lake Cumberland, and the Daniel Boone National Forest are all within a reasonable drive, with Mammoth Cave farther west. Spring and fall bring the most comfortable Kentucky conditions, with summer drawing lake traffic through the region. Demand runs steadily rather than seasonally at a park this size. Reserve ahead for holiday weekends.

Yeary Valley Farms

4 RV Sites, 4 Tiny Houses

Yeary Valley Farms in Speedwell, Tennessee, offers four full-hookup RV sites and four tiny houses on a working farm in the Appalachian highlands, with 50-amp service and rigs accepted to 45 feet on a big-rig-friendly layout. Themed cabin rentals, farm animals, and a pond make this a farm stay rather than a conventional campground. Four back-in sites carry water, sewer, and electric on 50-amp, sized to 45 feet, with fire pits. Four tiny houses and individually themed cabins serve guests without a rig — the themed units are much of the appeal here. At four RV sites, availability is genuinely limited, so book well ahead. Pets are welcome. The farm setting carries the experience, with farm animals on the property and a pond for fishing. Hiking, boating, and stargazing run from the area, and the dark rural sky at this elevation is worth an evening on its own. The position is unusually good for outdoor recreation. Norris Lake — Tennessee's finest fishing lake — has a public boat launch two miles away, and the Royal Blue Wildlife Management Area's extensive ATV and UTV trail network is 12 miles out. Off-roading is nearby, which draws a steady share of guests. The farm sits right off Highway 63 in Speedwell, with Flat Hollow Marina, Blue Springs Hollow Boat Dock, Powell Valley Resort, a Sunoco fuel station, and a Dollar General all within short distance. Summer lake season and fall riding weather drive demand. With four RV sites and four tiny houses, reserve as far ahead as you can.

Quiet Woods Green River Stables

10 RV Sites

Quiet Woods Green River Stables in Campbellsville, KY, offers 10 full-hookup back-in RV sites with 30 and 50-amp service and room for rigs up to 60 feet. Every site is a back-in carrying water, sewer, and electric with site-delivered WiFi. At 60 feet the sites take a large rig, and with ten of them the property never feels crowded. Laundry, a general store, and a barn are on site — the barn is the point, since this is an equestrian property and guests can bring horses, which almost no standard campground accommodates. Pets are welcome. The property also serves as a wedding venue. A beach and lake access, walking trails, and live music fill the grounds, with fishing, boating, swimming, biking, and birding on and around the water. A state park is nearby. Campbellsville sits in the Green River Lake area of central Kentucky, in rolling farm and lake country. Rates and availability are on the booking page. If you're traveling with horses, contact the stables directly to confirm stall availability alongside your site.

Camper Village RV Park

8 RV Sites

Camper Village RV Park in Dry Ridge, KY, offers 8 full-hookup RV sites with 20, 30, and 50-amp service and room for rigs up to 45 feet. Sites come in four categories — deluxe back-in, deluxe lakeview back-in, lakeview back-in, and deluxe pull-thru — all carrying water, sewer, and electric with site-delivered WiFi, a fire pit, and a picnic table. Lakeview sites are the ones to request. The park is open all year, with laundry, a bathhouse with showers, and a clubhouse. Cabins each sleep four. Pets are welcome, with a dog park. An outdoor pool, boat docks, a boat ramp, and boat and kayak rentals fill 20 acres on the water, with fishing, boating, paddling, paddle boats, paddle boarding, and swimming, plus a playground. Dry Ridge sits on Boltz Lake in Grant County, about 45 minutes south of downtown Cincinnati and 10 minutes from the Ark Encounter, in country that feels genuinely rural despite easy highway access. A state park is nearby. Rates for sites and cabins are on the booking page. Eight sites on a lake this close to Cincinnati means summer books first.

from $55/night

Mammoth Ridge RV Park

20 RV Sites

Mammoth Ridge RV Park and Campground in Greeneville, Tennessee, offers full-hookup RV sites on a lake with its own beach, a dog park, a general store and golf cart rentals. Sites take rigs up to 75 feet with electric hookups, which accommodates most large coaches traveling the Nolichucky valley between Morristown and Johnson City. Full-hookup RV sites with electric service accommodate rigs to 75 feet, and a dump station is on site. RV storage is available for guests leaving a rig between visits. Bathrooms, showers and laundry cover the practical side of a stay, a general store stocks basics and firewood, and WiFi reaches the sites. The lake is the property's center of gravity. A beach gives swimmers direct access, and fishing, boating, canoeing, kayaking and paddle boats put guests on the water without leaving the campground. Walking trails and biking routes run the grounds, volleyball and gaga ball serve the younger crowd, and a covered pavilion handles group gatherings. A fenced dog park is on site and pets are welcome. Golf cart rentals make the property easy to move around, and a golf course is nearby. One practical note: this is bear country despite the populated setting, so store food accordingly. Greeneville is the home of Andrew Johnson, and the National Historic Site downtown preserves his homestead, tailor shop and cemetery. The Nolichucky River Gorge lies 20 miles south in the Cherokee National Forest, where a 14-mile canyon carries Class III–IV whitewater, and Great Smoky Mountains National Park's Cosby entrance is a 45-mile drive southwest. The campground runs spring through fall. Cherokee National Forest wildflowers peak April into May, and October foliage on the northeast Tennessee ridgelines is the busiest window of the year — with the Roan Mountain rhododendron bloom, 40 miles northeast, drawing heavily from mid-June into early July. Reserve ahead for both.

Knoxville Campground

43 RV Sites

Knoxville Campground in Clinton, TN, offers 43 full-hookup RV sites with 30 and 50-amp service and room for rigs up to 83 feet.

Sites carry water, sewer, and electric with a fire pit and picnic table. The park is rated big rig friendly and the 83-foot maximum accommodates long coaches with a toad. Laundry, a bathhouse with showers, a dump station, propane fills, and firewood cover the practical side, with WiFi across the grounds. Pets are welcome, with a dog park. Recreation includes an outdoor pool, a game room and arcade, a fitness center, a clubhouse, volleyball, horseshoes, a playground, and walking trails, with lake and boating access nearby. Clinton sits about 10 miles north of Knoxville off Interstate 75 in Anderson County, near Norris Dam and the Museum of Appalachia. Rates and site-type availability are on the booking page. Late arrivals should note the campground's after-hours policy, which is covered in the park's FAQ — worth reading before a long driving day.
