New listing
Situated along Kentucky's Highland Rim, Holmes Bend Campground is surrounded by forested tracks, rolling meadows and the pristine banks of Green River Lake. With 8,000 surface acres of water, the lake is an ideal place for boating. With ten boat ramps located around the shoreline, guests have plenty of room for fishing, jet skiing, wake boarding and more, and three full-service marinas are also located around the lake. Fishing is a popular activity: walleye, crappie, white bass, channel catfish, muskie and bluegill are all found in abundance. Hunters enjoy the surrounding land, with various habitats supporting deer, turkey, rabbit, quail, squirrel, dove and waterfowl. There are also miles of trails that wind around the lake and along the shore, affording some of the most scenic views in the region. Holmes Bend Campground offers 125 campsites, 40 of which have electric hookups only and 62 of which have water and electric hookups. Amenities like flush toilets, showers, fire rings and drinking water provide a comfortable camping experience, and a playground and an interpretive trail offer additional recreation opportunities within the campground. Several miles of multi-use trails, including horseback riding, are located just down the road. Within a mile of the campground are a swimming beach, reservable picnic shelter, parking areas, an additional playground, restroom facilities, boat ramp, courtesy dock and fishing pier — all managed by the marina — as well as marina-owned rental cabins. The Green River Lake area encompasses a total of some 32,000 acres in the central portion of Kentucky, creating countless recreational activities for visitors on the water and on land. The Corps of Engineers Visitor Center and the historic Civil War Atkinson-Griffin Log Cabin are located only a short 10 miles northwest of Holmes Bend. Several historical attractions and national parks are located within an hour of Green River Lake, including the birthplace of Abraham Lincoln and Mammoth Cave National Park.
