New listing

Situated along Kentucky's Highland Rim, Smith Ridge Campground is surrounded by forested tracts, 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. Smith Ridge Campground offers 80 campsites, 62 of which have water and electric hookups. Amenities such as flush toilets, showers, fire rings and drinking water provide a comfortable camping experience, and a playground and hiking trail offer additional recreation opportunities within the campground. The Corps also manages a boat ramp, fishing pier, picnic sites and parking areas nearby. A marina-managed swimming beach, picnic areas, a 9-hole frisbee golf course, additional restroom facilities and marina-owned condos are all located within 1 mile of the campground. Green River Lake encompasses a total of some 32,000 acres in the central portion of Kentucky. The Corps of Engineers Visitor Center and the historic Civil War Atkinson-Griffin Log Cabin are located only a short 13.5 miles from Smith Ridge, near the Green River Lake Dam. 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.
