New listing

Dog Creek Campground sits on the shores of Nolin River Lake in the rolling landscape of southern Kentucky. The large lake and surrounding greenery create a recreational oasis for outdoor enthusiasts. Known for its unique blue-green water, Nolin Lake is one of the top lakes in Kentucky for catfish, bass, crappie and walleye fishing. Visitors can enjoy scenic canoe and boat trips along the river, part of which is located within Mammoth Cave National Park, and boat ramps are provided around the lake. The Moutardier, Ponderosa and Wax Marinas offer pontoon and john boat rentals, as well as boat slips, groceries, bait and gas. Several hiking trails wind along the shoreline and into the surrounding forest; Shady Creek Trail, in the Moutardier Recreation Area, is known for its array of wildflowers and greenery. Dog Creek offers 70 reservable campsites, complete with modern amenities like electric hookups and flush toilets. Campsites are located along the shoreline, allowing easy access to the lake and beaches. Nolin Dam creates a 5,795-acre lake that draws more than two million visitors each year to enjoy water sports and camping in the surrounding expanse of rolling forest. Mammoth Cave National Park is a short drive or ferry ride away from the campground, and several golf courses and riding stables are located around the lake.
