Started as a retirement experiment, Rockcastle Riverside is a story told of music and family.  We have almost 200 acres of beautiful country surrounded by the Daniel Boone National Forest in Rockcastle County. With a mile of river to swim, kayak, and fish and enchanted forest trails to hike, climb, or play, we have all of the best Kentucky has to offer! We have more established sites with fire rings, or you can find a place off the beaten path for more privacy, if you choose. The riverside is perfect for hammock camping, too.  We love music and often host bands on the weekends. We rent kayaks and canoes on site, as well.  While there are almost 200 acres to escape into, on any fine night, the stage sits wit a drum kit and the will to make music within the Daniel Boone National Forest. Come play, come get away....we have it ALL! We have a little of something for everyone!

We liked that it was small and aware from any busy towns. My girls loved playing in the river. We stayed in an electric and water site. There isn’t any shade over there. If you want shade/trees, you will want a primitive site.

The overall experience was quite nice. Campgrounds was very clean and well maintained. Sites were large and almost perfectly level. What set the tone for the stay was the map option on Hipcamp stopped us about 1½ mile before the actual location. The road leading to the camp ground is narrow, rough, and not well maintained at all. If you have a larger rig, might not be the spot for you. I have a 36' travel trailer that I tow with a long bed ¾ton, several spots I was uncomfortable with.
