This recreation area is part of Paintsville Lake
Paintsville Lake is on US 23 at the Staffordsville/Paintsville exit in Johnson County,KY. on Rt.40 West. From the Mountain Parkway, take the 460 exit out of Salyersville into Paintsville and turn on Rt.40 West at the intersection and follow the brown signs and turn right on KY.RT. 2275, continue down the hill until you see the sign, "Road Ends in Water"
One of the nicest state park campgrounds I've ever seen! Sites are level and have large chipped sites. Bath house is clean and well maintained. Nice playground for the kidos, and what seems to be a favorite swimming cove just at the bottom of the hill. Paintsville Lake is also very picturesque. This is what all our state park campgrounds should look like!
Stopped by the lake since I haven't been here in a few years. It's still just as beautiful as the last time I seen it. My husband and I were married here on July 3rd 2008 and we used to bring our kids here to play and swim daily as we lived just up the road. Today it was flooded as it had rained the past few days but I really enjoyed the scenery and ducks.
My kids hometown park! A place we’ve been many times and have tons of memories being here! A place dear to my heart that I love! Enjoy it and is very much for everyone and every family to enjoy and create memories of your own. My last trip was to fish so that’s what pictures I’ll post but we also fished at the spillway and you can call 297-4111 to see what days they release the trout. You can also eat at the lake diner or bring your own food and just eat at the picnic table area. Let your kids play at the playground or the whole family can swim! Get out on the water 💦 if you want and you can bring your camper and go camping. Paintsville lake state park is a great place for all your outdoor activities.
Very nice state park, with campgrounds, marinas, little store/restaurant. Campgrounds has showers, bathhouse, laundry and nice playground. In a beautiful siting
Beautiful campground and super friendly employees! Host family was great as well. The best bathrooms that were very clean and a laundry room. Playgrounds and restaurant by the docks. Highly recommend this campground.
