2 nights at Savvy Retreat

Great place to stay. Having a covered place to park your RV made everything so much easier. The area around the site is absolutely beautiful.

Weekend Trip to Wildcat Creek Farm in Tyrone

10/10 experience. Keven and John were fantastic hosts. I will be back again and again, and hope you do the same. What wonderful people with such a beautiful property for us to enjoy!

Weekend Trip to Savvy Retreat

We had a wonderful experience and a much needed peaceful getaway! Our hosts thought of everything and were very attentive. We had the best of both worlds with access to WiFi, electric, water and the experience of being deep in the woods and immersed in nature. We are looking forward to another trip in the fall when the leaves change. I highly recommend this private campsite for anyone seeking a peaceful retreat!

1 night at The Kilns @ The Red River Gorge

Absolutely beautiful with amazing hosts! The rolling hills were a beautiful backdrop 💙

Weekend Trip to Kinner Kamping

The friends theme was amazing. It was such an amazing experience. Bathroom and shower situation was unique for sure but doable. It was great watching the friends DVDs there

Weekend Trip to HomeGrown HideAways

This was our 2nd stay of many. We love the land here and the special place that has been created and graciously shared with guests. This visit, we enjoyed hiking the trail and the farm dogs joined us. We will be back soon!

1 night at Serenity Camp

This space was so great for my dog and I and our 23ft rig during our first few days of full time bus life! It was so incredibly peaceful with the birds and privacy. It is right off of a road but it doesn’t feel like it all tucked away and felt super safe. The hosts were so great and gave great recommendations that i asked for. Plus the location is great for so many things! I will definitely stay again.

2 nights at The Kilns @ The Red River Gorge

We loved tent camping at the Kilns!! Kim & Scott are amazing hosts that were so helpful and kind, providing us firewood and information about the area. We will definitely be back and highly recommend staying here!

3 nights at Terrapin Hill Farm

Terrapin Hill was delightful. Brenda and Pete were wonderful hosts, and the land offered quiet spots and rolling trails. It's close to Shaker Village and lots of other sites.

Weekend Trip to Serenity Camp

Plenty of space and awesome spots to choose from, also super close to the gorge!! Would definitely recommend!

Weekend Trip to Farm and Forest

Jennifer’s farm was a perfect place to stay with our class B can. Quiet and peaceful, only 15 minutes from the UK campus, Lexington downtown and easy to get to from the interstate. The site had full 30amp hookup , water and dump. Jennifer was very helpful and went out of her way to make it an easy place to find and stay.

Weekend Trip to Savvy Retreat

Savvy Retreat is the perfect spot for a private getaway. The hosts have thought of everything, making it such a comfortable stay. We will definitely be visiting here again!

Weekend Trip to HomeGrown HideAways

Host and property were both wonderful! Unfortunately we were only there overnight, but would absolutely come back to the area just to spend more time at the property. Clear directions, great amenities, and the host was kind and responsive. Stunning views and lots more to offer. Would highly recommend this stay!

3 nights at The Harrican Lakehouse

Amazing stay! Bridgett was a wonderful host! We especially enjoyed the wrap-around covered deck and outdoor sectional seating. The kids really had a blast fishing from the dock, and loved the kayaks. Would highly recommend for those looking for a peaceful getaway. Thank you for sharing your little slice of heaven with our family!

Weekend Trip to Bourbon Trail Campground

Great host and enjoyed a private spot! Definitely recommend.

3 nights at The Kilns @ The Red River Gorge

The kids and I had a lovely stay at the Kilns. 😊 Our hosts were friendly, relaxed, and so thoughtful! We really appreciated that firewood was free because we were using it to cook our meals! Scott even delivered dry wood and kindling when ours got rained on! We did have to get some earplugs for the spring frogs at night but loved hearing the sounds of nature. We weren't bothered by any mosquitoes. It was a perfect close spot for visiting the RRG too! Lots of positives about this site and would recommend. We camped under the chestnut tree because we knew there was some rain in the forecast.

Weekend Trip to Terrapin Hill Farm

Wonderful host and beautiful property! Host was very kind and accommodating. Clear directions and great amenities. Would absolutely recommend for a peaceful stay.

Weekend Trip to Kinner Kamping

We loved the Friends camper! Everything was well thought out! They even had the friends episodes on DVD and we watched them as we snuggled in for the night! The outside is adorable and has the cutest little lights. They have card games that are friends themed as well! Every detail was perfect for the theme! The only thing that would have made it better would have been a tiny microwave! The hosts are the absolute sweetest people and we would rent from them anytime!

2 nights at The Kilns @ The Red River Gorge

The Kilns is a beautiful piece of land just ten minutes from the Red River Gorge, which was an amazing arrangement for us hikers. Kimberly was so welcoming and kind. On arrival, she gave us a whole guide packet for our stay, including a map, a list of nearby recommended restaurants, recommended hikes, and even a sticker for our water bottles. A thunderstorm hit on our second night and Kim generously let us move our tent under an awning on their property. With plenty of firewood available and a clean port-a-potty, we’d definitely stay again. Regarding the frogs: yes, they are very loud! You will not be able to ignore them, but we considered them a feature of the land and Kim warned us ahead of time that they’d be making noise. We brought ear plugs and had no trouble getting to sleep (bring them if you stay here).

1 night at Farm and Forest

Beautiful property! Very accommodating hosts, lots of communication. Highly recommend!

Much of the timber on the place is nearly 100 years old hardwoods, with a couple of fields throughout. I camp here myself too, and can recommend it for privacy! Learn more about this land: You can park an RV or trailer on these private sites within a 10min drive or short walk to Laurel Lake! Gravel roads to a field capable of holding up to two trailers with more planned in time! Primitive sites, Quiet n private.

The LAAAAND (just you & 50 acres)

2 sites · RVs, Tents50 acres · Frenchburg, KY

When you want to get away to nature, what do you envision? We're a family that loves to camp; and while we love a stop at a KOA or community campground, we sometimes crave quiet time in nature without the noise and distraction of other campers. That's what makes The LAAAAND so special. The property is comprised of 50 pristine acres, with a mix of fields and woods, that bump up against another 250 acres owned by our family friends. The southern perimeter of the property is all cliff line, so you feel truly remote. The possibilities of sound pollution are limited to a far-off dog barking, horses being ridden down a nearby trail, or the possible hum of a distant lumber yard. Other than that, you'll mostly hear the wind rustling trees, deer and critters making their way through the woods, and possibly a waterfall at certain times of the year. Oh, and you will absolutely hear whipoorwhills, most likely at a time you'd rather not (we've decided they're charming). Over the nearly 2 decades we've owned this property we have spent countless weekends enjoying the simplest of pleasures; watching butterflies dance in the tree canopy, having dance parties at sunset on the deck, forging new trails and hiking into the unkown, sitting in the truck bed late at night gazing at a star-covered sky counting shooting stars. If you are looking for a space and place to reset and reconnect, The LAAAAND is waiting for you. (***Please note, we leave our personal camper on the property for the camping season, so you will see it when you arrive to the right of the campsite***)

But don't let that limit your adventures—explore nearby Elk View in Breathitt County or venture to the iconic Red River Gorge and Natural Bridge State Resort Park for unforgettable outdoor experiences. To enhance your camping experience, we provide firewood for cozy evenings by the campfire, where memories are made under the starlit sky. Whether you seek adventure or relaxation, Rushing River RV Site is your gateway to an unforgettable countryside retreat. We look forward to hosting you at Graham Family Farm!

Red Haven Farm Rustic Camping

4 sites · RVs, Tents540 acres · Irvine, KY

This is a beautiful piece of property in the Red Lick Valley with a combination of pastures and deep woods. It is absolutely beautiful all year around. Pitch your tent in our secluded area along Locust Branch Creek. There are spots available with shade at least part of the day and direct access to the creek. You can walk the creek bed, rock hunt, listen to the creek pass by and enjoy the serenity of nature. This is in the corner of our 540-acre farm which was once part of the Locust Branch School. Here you are welcome to hike the fields and woods. We have rustic trails in the woods and pastures you can explore. This is part of a farm, so we have dogs, horses and other animals. These include Highland cattle, Idaho pasture pigs, mini donkeys, goats and more! You will also likely see us out working. This is Kentucky so we do have snakes, ticks and other bugs so it is best to be prepared. If you want to take some excursions, visit nearby Berea, Irvine or the Daniel Boone National Forest with all it has to offer, including the Red River Gorge! Site has picnic tables, fire pit and potta potty.

Plantasia Homestead at Anglin Falls

1 site · RV, Tent35 acres · Mount Vernon, KY

Our property, Plantasia, is thirty-five acres of hardwood forest, lined with limestone boulders and sandstone cliffs, the occasional old growth tree, and mineral springs pouring out pure delicious water. The rest of the property is an old Appalachian homestead, featuring organic gardens and orchards, two farm cats and one farm dog, bee hives, and a flock of domestic ducks. The stewards are Phil, Sacha, three year-old Aurora, and baby Arthur. We are particularly keen to welcoming other families and/or folks who live in relative sobriety. The springs feed into creeks which criss-cross the wildflower meadow, creating spaces to splash and explore with the minnows, crawdads, frogs, snakes, and whoever else you might find. To the interest of fossil hunters and rock hounds, the creeks are packed with geodes, agates, and relics of an age when Plantasia was the ocean floor (~250 million years ago). Down the road, the trailhead of one of Kentucky's greatest waterfalls, Anglin Falls, is within walking distance (though you can also drive there and park). Plantasia is also a short drive from Berea, the folk art capital of Kentucky, which features plenty of local shops and restaurants, as well as some beautiful trails on the outskirts of town (Brushy Fork for a relaxing stroll, or the Pinnacles for a big majestic hike).

Close to Adventure

1 site · RV, Tent44 acres · Frenchburg, KY

My place is secluded and peaceful. Its a wooded country setting and is a primitive site. There are no facilities or utilities, there is an outhouse/self composting (follow up your business with dropping leaves in after). It may not be suitable for children as there are active brush/wood burn piles on the land. See all photos and ask questions, please. I want it to be enjoyable for all who book. It’s also noteworthy that there are dogs in the area that roam free, it’s way out in the country, there are no leash laws. I’ve never had any issues with unfriendly dogs, but always be aware. It’s at a dead end road, no thru traffic. You can stay and enjoy some amazing stargazing, (there is minimal lighting and a very dark, clear view of the night sky) and lots of peace and quiet or explore the Daniel Boone National Forest surrounding the property or travel a short distance and see so many nearby amazing areas…Red River Gorge, Natural Bridge State Park, NADA Tunnel, Sky Bridge, Cave Run Lake, Twin Knobs and Zilpo Recreation Areas, Carter Caves State Park, Grayson Lake, Rudy’s Ranch.

Gray Hills

8 sites · RVs, Tents150 acres · Barbourville, KY

Welcome to Gray Hills, a tranquil retreat that covers 150 acres in the scenic foothills of the Appalachian Mountains in southeast Kentucky. Easy to reach, yet off the beaten path—just 20 minutes from I-75, nestled in a quiet holler—this destination is perfectly tailored for families, friends, and those in search of solitude, providing a rejuvenating escape from everyday pressures. Experience the soothing sounds of nature while making unforgettable memories. For the adventurous, take a hike to the ridgeline for breathtaking views, or spend a relaxing day fishing in our stocked 2-acre pond. Our primitive campsites offer a peaceful, off-grid experience surrounded by rolling hills, quiet forests, and scenic views. Choose from a variety of unique sites: Pondside – Set up camp by the water, where frogs sing at dusk and mist rises off the surface in the early morning. Great for fishing, relaxing, or watching wildlife. Feel free to bring your kayak and enjoy the water, but please wear a life vest and skip the swim. Kayak rentals offered—availability may vary. Hilltop – Wake up to views of the Appalachian foothills and enjoy the sunrises and sunsets that light up the sky. These elevated spots offer privacy, cool breezes, and a true backcountry feel. Dirt roads, wild land, and no concrete in sight—all sites are primitive—no hookups or modern amenities—just raw, natural beauty. Whether you’re hammock camping, pitching a tent, or rolling in with a minimal setup, this is your spot to slow down and unplug. Fire pits at each site and natural trails throughout the property make it easy to explore and unwind. Nature takes over once you leave the main highway—cell service gets pretty thin, so plan accordingly! The one-lane dirt road is bumpy on purpose to keep speeds safe for walkers. It’s passable for most vehicles, just take it slow and don’t overload. Only the campsites are cleared—everything else is left wild for the local wildlife. We don’t manicure the woods, and we like it that way. Nature’s all around us, bugs included—bring your repellent! Just a heads-up: A nearby train may roll through at any time—it's part of the holler charm! Primitive camping isn’t for everyone, and that’s okay. But if you love it rugged and real, welcome to Gray Hills.
