Hones Pointe was established in 1988. It was built by four insurance agents to elude our sales managers so we could enjoy a unique natural setting. Over the years, we have planted many different varieties of trees and perennials to observe. Also evidence exists of this area being an Indian camp long ago as suggested by arrowheads and an old handmade rock wall. Primitive camping where you can pick your own scenic spot. We will furnish picnic table, fire ring, garbage can, and charcoal grill during your campout. Welcome!

Enjoy the seclusion of Hones Pointe. It's located in a valley on the Little Kentucky River. The property has been landscaped over the past 35 years. River banks are full of fossils, and wildlife is abundant. This area is newly constructed, so there is very little shade. Sites are near the petting zoo and have a path for access to the Little Kentucky River.

  • Review summary

    Generated from real Hipcamper reviews

    Hones Point offers a relaxed and peaceful camping experience with a variety of activities, from playgrounds and volleyball to creek walks and a unique 'hillbilly hot tub'. Many campers appreciate the seclusion and privacy of the sites, though some note the lack of amenities like water and sewer hookups, or the run-down state of certain facilities. The site is dog-friendly and has a petting zoo, adding to the charm for families. However, some campers mentioned the noise of barking dogs and the dated condition of some features as drawbacks.

    We have come to love this hidden gem. Very quiet, some of the spots are quite secluded. A great place to quite literally disconnect from the world. We love the big open spaces, the creek for exploring, the volleyball and basketball spot, the playground/swings, and appreciate the trash bin at each site. The property is very clean, well-maintained, and we hope to return for a 3rd time soon. We did steal a small rock, sorry...
