Surround yourself with rolling hills and shade trees, creature comforts, and southern hospitality at family-friendly Northern Kentucky RV Park. Choose a standard RV site or one with water views and stay with us for the weekend, week, or longer while you explore all of the nearby attractions or spend the day fishing at our catch and release lake. Our convenient location, right off I-75, gives folks easy access to bustling metropolises like Cincinnati and Lexington and every small town in between!
From jct I-75 & US 25 (exit 166): Go 1/4 mi E on Hwy 491, then 2-1/2 mi S on US 25.
When choosing the place to stay, seeing the website, I was stoked. And thought it would be a great place to come to see the ark and creation museum. Perfect location for that. But, it is right next to rail road tracks than ran all through the night. Frustrating! Setting up your trailer for levelness is horrible. My steps were way to high for my wife to come down safely. In my opinion they need to spend a little money and level the sites for their patrons. Would not take much time or money. I will say the facility was clean especially the bath house.
Expensive park for having to hear very loud trains almost every 20 minutes. It was nice enough but the train noise almost ruined it. I sleep with a sound machine so it did drown it out and it was less frequent overnight. The showers were not that great. They are very small. The wifi is great! My spot was level but I did see several other RVers using their levelers so much their front tires were more than a foot off the ground! The close proximity to area attractions was beneficial. (The Ark is spectacular)
We reserved this sight unseen while planning our trip to the Ark Encounter, and it seemed really good online. The office staff is very friendly and helpful. The grounds well kept and are very nice with walking trails, a pond for fishing, a playground for kids, corn hole, etc.
That being said, the highway and train noise is intolerable. They gave us site 7, which was right next to the road coming in and trains went by nearly every 45 minutes. We asked about switching sites and they readily and graciously accommodated us. We moved to site 80 which is next to the lake. This was $40 more per night, and backed up to the interstate and.the highway noise was very loud. It seems there really isn't any site within the campground where you can have peace and a quiet conversation. The office even supplies ear plugs! Really? That's not on the website.
If you have children and can tolerate the noise, this would be a good place. For us, not so much. Our trip only allows time for the Ark. If we come back sometime for the museum we will do more research for a state park that would be better suited, even if there isn't full hook-ups. While writing this I found out that even site 80 has train noise, as I watched a freight train go by. I wish I could attach a picture so you could see how close the train was. Or better yet, a video to show just how loud it is.
This would be the perfect camp site if it wasn’t right next to the railroad tracks. Everyone is super friendly, the amenities are clean and well kept, there’s an awesome playground and a fishing hole! But it’s right next to the railroad tracks and the trains come through all night long blaring their horns. If you’re a heavy sleeper then no worries but if you’re a light sleeper or have babies I would not recommend.
