Description

Piney Campground sits on the shores of Kentucky Lake, on the Tennessee-Kentucky border. Spend a relaxing day at your campsite along the water—or maybe you chose one that's tucked back into the woodlands. There are sites here for all kinds of campers: primitive tent sites, sites with water, electricity, and sewer hookups, and even some primitive cabins, so take your pick! The campground has access to many attractions in the park, including a planetarium, nature center, and elk and bison range. Visit in mid-September for the Camper’s Fair—which includes a flea market and RV showcase—held at Piney every year.

Camped here 10/12/21. Would seriously warn RV'ers away from this park. The check in was a nightmare, taking 55 minutes due to sloooow registrars who were allowing people to jump the line and get in front to the windows. Also their occupation policy seemed to allow filling every available site so each loop was jammed together like sardines and resembled a third world refugee camp. Camp "rangers" and hosts seemed unconcerned that a multitude of kids were riding every conceivable vehicle, shrieking, running around unrestrained long into the evening. We couldn't get out of there fast enough. Too bad for an otherwise beautiful natural site. If you're after nature, a modicum of privacy, and some serenity AVOID at all costs.

A unique place with a buffalo sanctuary nearby. Our site was close to the lake and had clean facilities nearby. It was quiet in the spring and the lake was beautiful.
