This campground is a climbers' paradise. It is 7 miles south of Red River Gorge, an area that offers over 3,500 bolted rock climbing routes. If you're interested in continuing your climbing escapade, you can also visit Pendergrass-Murry Recreational and Preserve Muir Valley, two more outstanding climbing destinations. While visiting Land of The Arches, you'll have the opportunity to visit nearby Daniel Boone National Park and Natural Bridge State Park for hiking, fishing and wildlife watching.
The campground has 99 sites with up to 51 guests per site. It is a large piece of land and is great for boy scouts. There is also a "hangar" which has a foosball table, ping pong, air hockey and free wifi.
Due to liability issues we are a no pet campground.
Tent Camping is $8 per person per night. Indoor camping (bring your own bedroll is $10 per person per night). For indoor camping, you must reserve online.

Lota is 5 minutes away from Muir Valley and 10 minutes away from Pendergrass Murray Nature Preserve (PMRP). We are right where you want to be.
Our group had an excellent weekend here. We all agreed that it was very well organized along with very clean and quiet. It was nice to be able to come back and take a warm shower after a day in the woods. We'll definitely camp here again if we're ever back in the area!
Kind & Helpful staff. Great & cheap for Solo travelers. For family tent campers like us, the cost multiplies per person and it becomes a just better than average camping site. Bathrooms need bit maintenance & camping area could have used few trees for shade. But the wide open site, open air common cooking area, wifi were all great.
Great place to car camp overnight. There is lots of room for everyone and they also have a barn near the welcome center where you can go to do things before you decide to head to bed.
As a solo camper who was new to the area, let me start with what this place isn't. It doesn't have a lot of shade, no amazing views from your campsite. There is no real privacy between sites either. What it is is a FOB (forward operating base) for you and your family to explore the area. It's a self check in system so you can show up anytime. It has a large covered patio for cooking, and a huge hanger with plenty of activities for the family which is great if the weather gets bad. You can play air hockey, read books, watch TV, chess, checkers etc. He even has a couple of very small rooms you can rent inside the hanger if weather is bad. And, wait for it, he has amazingly hot showers and a washer and dryer!! The entire site is covered by free WiFi, which was one of the biggest draws. The owner David is a very friendly guy with a lot of information about the area. I showed up during the week so I basically had the whole place to myself. Having checked out a few other of the camp grounds, I would definitely recommend this place.
Beautiful campground. Climber friendly. Hosts of the rrgcc rocktoberfest!
