We counted for you, and Green River Lake has a whopping 18 different activities you can partake in on these superb grounds. Seriously, the question here is more what can you NOT do? Play a friendly game of putt-putt golf against your friends, swim and fish around the lake, or hang out on the beautiful piers. Whether jet skiing, boating, or kayaking is more your thing, you'll be able to float those waters in whichever way strikes your fancy. Grill up the fresh food you've bought at the nearby store or put dinner on pause to check out some of the historic sites nearby. With spelunking and hunting opportunities not far away, we don't think your heart could wish for anything more on such a badass vacation.

Nice spot. Open field with a fire pit, picnic table, some trees, and next to the river. Host was very responsive to my messages and only took a minute or two to respond. There is a very very friendly cat on the farm and it will hang out either you by the campfire. Woke up with some horses walking up to us to say hi (friendly as well). Only downside was some dogs barking in the middle of the night.

This was the coolest place we’ve ever camped at! The hosts were super nice and easy to communicate with, they also recommended a lot of different things to see/do. The animals were very friendly and sociable, especially Little Rat and Frank. Overall very nice property!

We enjoyed hiking along the creek bed, visiting with the horses, and fishing in the river! A nice spot for camping; we pitched our tent in the field overlooking the river. Very friendly hosts and animals. Hope to get back sometime.

Absolutely fantastic stay! The kids roamed free and loved the animals. We hiked up the creek, which was so gorgeous and found the “witch’s” shed. Kevin was such a lovely host. We enjoyed getting to know him and the pets! We will definitely be back in the summer to swim in the creek and river.

We loved camping on Keven's property! It was a gorgeous spot right next to the Kentucky River. There was a beautiful creek for the kids to explore. Keven was super helpful and welcoming. There were some friendly donkeys, goats, and a couple of horses all on the property, which made this trip pretty memorable for the kids. Overall we had a great time and would definitely return.

Absolutely peaceful. The woods and the fields reminded me of where I grew up, sadly my youth and that land is gone. Would highly recommend staying here

Keven was the nicest. Great communication, beautiful land, friendliest donkies, right by a beautiful body of water. Loved setting up my tent on grass! The only negative was the sandiness due to flooding earlier this year.

Our campsite was clean and had the best view of the Kentucky River with direct access to fish or swim. The animals were friendly, and the donkey was a welcomed fireside friend in the morning!

Great spot and great host! The fishing lake produced 3 catfish, just make sure to bring barbless hooks. The kids enjoyed it.

Very peaceful. Beautiful scenery, close to the river. Kevin was a friendly and helpful host. The wildlife was wonderful, especially the birdsong in the morning. And to top it off, there were friendly, healthy, horses, goats, donkeys, and mules wandering around the pastures. They like to be petted. I enjoyed camping there very much!

Keven is the best!!! His animals are so friendly, his property a little oasis, and his personality so kind and open. He even kayaked down the river and waited hours to video tape my bungee jump! Can’t wait to return in the future :)
