Grove Boat-In Campground

Grove Boat-In Campground is accessible by boat from Laurel River Lake or by trail from Grove Drive-In Campground. The campground sits at the end of two peninsulas separated by a small bay. Most campsites are near the water's edge with boat moorings near each site. Each site has a tent pad, fire ring, picnic table, and lantern poles. Self-serve pay stations, water, and vault toilets are centrally located. There are no flush toilets or showers. Most campsites are near the water's edge with boat moorings near each site. The sites are spaced apart and provide a sense of seclusion. These campsites are favored by boat owners who wish to keep their boats near their campsite.

Laurel River Lake features 5,600 acres of clear, deep water and nearly 200 miles of tree-lined shore. The quiet coves and cliff-lined shores offer relaxation and quiet reflection, as well as boating, fishing, skiing and scuba diving in one of the deepest and cleanest lakes in Kentucky.

Grove Marina is a full-service marina located within 1/2-mile of the campground. The marina is privately-owned and operated under a special-use permit with the U.S. Forest Service. Rental boats, camping and fishing supplies, fishing licenses, and detailed maps of the lake are available at the marina. The marina is open year round. 

Grove Boat Ramp is located at the marina.
