Camping near Union guide

Overview

20 minutes south of Cincinnati, Union offers an easy escape into north Kentucky’s nature. Enjoy views of the Ohio River from private waterfront campsites in town, or discover local history with a stay on a nearby 19th-century farm. Head south to Big Bone Lick State Historic Site for a glimpse of 20,000-year-old fossils, then admire the bison herd as they wander through the trees. A campground complete with hookups, grills, a playground, and a swimming pool adds even more fun to this historic area. Finish up with a stay in Fort Boonesborough State Park, where the campground offers views over the Kentucky River. Amenities include full and partial hookups for RVs, service buildings with washrooms and showers, and three dump stations. Mornings are great for watching wild turkeys and pileated woodpeckers while hiking the trails, then wander through the old fort to learn about early settler life at this historic state park.
