Kentuck Lake Campground

Early settlers from Kentucky gave the name to Kentuck Lake. Kentuck Lake Campground is located on the east shore of the lake in a stand of maple, at an elevation of 1,730 feet. The 955-acre lake is popular with anglers and has abundant walleye, bass, crappies and panfish. The lake provides visitors with ample opportunities for boating and fishing. Anglers can expect a catch of musky, walleye, northern pike, large and smallmouth bass, crappie and perch. The lake is open to all types of boating, motorized and non-motorized, and is accessible by the boat landing located within the campground. A trail linking the campground to the Spectacle Lake Campground begins near the boat landing and stretches 2.5 miles through mature upland hardwoods and lowland conifer areas. A variety of wildlife makes its home in the area and visitors are encouraged to keep watch. The campground offers 31 single family campsites, available for tent or RV camping — 13 first-come, first-served and 18 reservable in advance. Sites are equipped with tables and fire rings with grills. A pressurized water system is available for drinking water. The City of Eagle River is located about 17 miles west of the campground, with a variety of services and activities.
