Recreation

Lake Cumberland is the largest man-made lake east of the Mississippi River. Its large surface acreage and over 1,200 miles of shoreline provide a myriad of recreational activities.

The lake has an abundance of largemouth, smallmouth, white and Kentucky bass, bluegill, crappie, rockfish and walleye, making it a favorite among anglers.

Facilities

Visitors enjoy the 10-acre site and its 10 shaded campsites. All of these sites are waterfront, making them prime locations for weekend recreation. Fall Creek has a day-use area, picnic shelter and public parking. Amenities include flush toilets, showers, drinking water and a dump station. A boat ramp and playground are located within the park.

Natural Features

The campground overlooks the main body of the lake, offering sweeping scenic views. Dense stands of mature hardwoods forest the area, offering pleasant shade and wildlife habitat.

Due to the temperate climate and relatively long recreation season, the lake provides varied outdoor recreational opportunities for millions of visitors each year.

This is our "go-to" spot! And camp hostess Patsy Sexton IS THE BEST! Campground is quiet, boat ramp at the bottom of the hill. Facilities are always clean. We keep going back!

A very unique and beautiful campground! The dump station is a little awkward and hard to access if you have a camper over 20 ft. There is an access to the water but it is really rocky once you get down the stairs. Down the hill from the campgrounds, is the boat ramp, playground, and a pavilion. The lady running it this year is also very sweet and came and asked if we needed garbage bags or anything. Before we left, she was telling me of all the hole in the wall attractions that were near by. This campground has been added on our "must return list"!
